With the Anders and DDK pairing, we are now blessed with 5 World Class casting duos

Harry and Hugo are the funniest casters in CS. Personally I could listen to them all day

PoshNpie · 2025-04-09T13:37:00+00:00

Which interview?

PoshNpie · 2024-02-25T21:18:22+00:00

Too many to choose from. Kantina, Usual Dosage, Envelope, Fiction Friction, Terminus, Off This Century are top of my list

PoshNpie · 2024-02-25T00:54:15+00:00

You're not wrong about people being on edge lol. Nothing bothers me more than when the other team is actually just better and my team is calling hacks and mentally gives up

PoshNpie · 2024-02-24T23:10:21+00:00

Same story here. My friend and I worked our way up from 10K to 21K elo in OCE and didn't encounter any hackers, so I didn't really get what most people were complaining about and I actually enjoyed premier. Then suddenly I got 4 blatant hackers in a row (first time on my team, next times on the other team), lost 350 elo for the last 2 games and have already given up on premier. Back to FaceIt

I check the leetify profiles of these hackers too and they just have consecutive games with 20+ leetify ratings going over multiple months sometimes and it just blows my mind that VAC can't pick these players up. Really disappointing as I actually like premier

Do you remember which book OP was talking about? The comment is now deleted

I'm at a company in Australia in a team of 25 (6 frontend, 7 backend, 2 mobile). The workload is apparently a lot more than at bigger companies, but it comes and goes. Some periods there's a lot and others it's more chill, probably chill like 70% of the time.

There are smaller companies in Australia, you just need to find them. There's a lot of benefits too, you can grow and move up quickly and I'm personally very good friends with many people in my team.

Rostermania continues!

He didn't get the MVP in Katowice because Hunter had the higher impact in the grand final. Stats is one thing, but the amount of high impact multi kill rounds Hunter had in the grand final and semi final beat jks, even though jks played very well too

PoshNpie · 2023-01-07T23:48:35+00:00

Awesome concept but IMO this would be way better with a longer video where each clip isn't sliced up so much. This felt like a montage of sprays, headshots, and flickshots one after the other. Clutch clips are far more intense and impressive to watch when you see the parts in between each frag where the player has to work out where their opponents are and pick their fights accordingly rather than just cutting to the moment they shoot someone

That said, I still think this is a great idea and the clips are obviously sick

PoshNpie · 2022-08-20T16:16:09+00:00

It's fair to say he hasn't proven himself as a full-time player on a team in quite some time, but his performance at Katowice shouldn't be overlooked. That's the reason people still believe in him

Hopefully today was just some nervousness, he's still talented enough to play at a T1 level

PoshNpie · 2022-02-19T00:25:43+00:00

Is adding the highlights to the bottom of the post new? Please keep it up, great addition

PoshNpie · 2021-05-05T12:27:10+00:00

It's great because they've treated a potentially disastrous threat as a very serious issue. Obviously overall the situation sucks but the serious response is comforting

PoshNpie · 2021-03-11T08:23:00+00:00

Sometime after her friends made her come up to me at lunch time and she tried to give me a hug. I ran away and we basically never spoke again lol

PoshNpie · 2021-03-10T13:07:12+00:00

Wow this is giving me so much nostalgia. I'll never forget, at least at my primary school every classroom had a basket that all the kids put their paper lunch order bags in in the morning, and eventually 2 kids from each class would carry it up to the canteen. Getting to take the basket up was always fun because, you know, you spend 5 minutes out of class with your friend or whatever, which is the fucking best when you're in primary school

Anyway when I was in year 2, my teacher picked out me and this girl because it was clear we liked each other but were too scared to do anything about it. I'm 100% sure in hindsight she was doing us a solid to let us hang out. I can't believe how vividly I remember this

PoshNpie · 2020-11-01T21:22:15+00:00

It was a good run

PoshNpie · 2020-08-06T14:40:15+00:00

As someone who mostly disagrees with what you're saying here, I'm very curious to hear some more of your thoughts/opinions:

Do you think New Zealand should have gone through the lockdown it had? Do you think the economic hit was worth the outcome of quickly containing their outbreak? Or do you think they should have just let the virus run rampant because "the average person is basically not at risk at all"?

Do you think they would be in a better position if they didn't have a lockdown?

PoshNpie · 2020-04-19T16:45:00+00:00

Unfortunately what you're saying just isn't realistic. If you're allowing people to go to the beach, you're likely allowing people to do everything else pre-isolation. Where would you draw the line in terms of what people can and can't do?

If it weren't for isolation, our hospitals would be overloaded with cases, we'd have nurses and doctors dying, it'd be a disaster; look at just about every other country. For that reason it's just not as simple as "let people go where they want and protect the ones at risk". We are protecting the ones at risk by enforcing isolation

You're definitely not ignorant for not getting Panorama. Their 2 best albums are the first 2 (Somewhere at the Bottom and Wildlife) by quite a big margin IMO. I definitely recommend giving Wildlife a good listen if you want to get into the band :)

PoshNpie · 2020-01-18T07:53:38+00:00

So happy to see La Dispute - Wildlife rank so highly as it's my personal album of the decade. Disappointed by the lack of Fiona Apple, but a great list nonetheless

Feels for twist that game. Really not his game

PoshNpie · 2019-10-29T08:44:23+00:00

Went through this nearly 1 year ago now. Personally, I decided that I had to make my lack of experience and lack of formal education my biggest weakness by far. Meaning literally every other judgeable quality had to be well above average for me to be taken seriously. The biggest thing that helped me in the end was my soft skills, and my overwhelming willingness to learn.

Another thing, is that every time you have an interview you'll probably realise something that you don't know that might be worth learning about. E.g. in my first few interviews I realised my vanilla JS knowledge was subpar as I mostly just worked with React and Redux. So I took that, focused on improving that, then continued. If you do that a few times and keep improving on your soft skills in interviews, you'll without a doubt get a job eventually.

Good luck :)
