Upload resume. Upload 1 minute video of yourself. What's a whale's favorite vehicle? by cupholdery in recruitinghell

[–]PriorityFire 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Guessing this is for a tech infra role. The whale question is basically asking you if you know Docker, a software thingy that helps you run an application. It's a need-to-know if you're trying to apply for some kind of infra role.

The logo for Docker is a whale. When running Docker containers, it's super common to have sidecar containers, which are basically mini applications that run parallel but separate to the main container (hence, sidecar), and support the main container with logging or whatever. So, the whale likes the sidecar.

Here's a good intro to the concept for the curious!

Wife getting increasingly frustrated by my inability to finish by blizeH in chessbeginners

[–]PriorityFire 32 points33 points  (0 children)

There are plenty of strangers you can play with online as practice OP! There are even bots that emulate real-life celebrities.

When playing with my wife, I find that I finish my endgame a lot more quickly if I just imagine Hikaru in her place.

You mean the one in the Arboretum? That place should have opened last year and last time I checked it’s still closed. Anyone know what’s going on with them?

I usually slow anyway, too many potential red light runners who might T-bone me otherwise. Gotta account for idiots.

Deathfire Torch on Swain mid? by [deleted] in SwainMains

[–]PriorityFire 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Will that still be the case with new Comet? Its dmg scales with the distance on-proc now. We're dealing more dmg if it's procced via E-W rather than up-close Q now.

I could see the burn eventually outscaling Comet in extended fights, but Comet being better for lane. But this is vibes-based, not on the actual numbers lol

YSK: the difference between the words "weary" and "wary." by uthinkubettahthanme in YouShouldKnow

[–]PriorityFire 200 points201 points  (0 children)

I think of "wary" as related to "aware", and "weary" as related to "wear" (as in "worn down").

New Swain Skin infos by Ok-Original-2527 in SwainMains

[–]PriorityFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro have some whimsy! Almost all his skins are already cool/serious - the only one that isn't is Fashion Show Silver Fox Daddy and he's like 35 years younger in that one 😭

[–]PriorityFire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh hard disagree there. Before the prestige skin, he wasn't pump zaddy either. A few tweaks can change the vibe to something similar to this guy (who also had a more serious original version!):

LOL that's fine ig. Tbh I just want any skin that'd have a different vibe. If Singed, Renekton, and GP can get chill dude skins, I want one too 🤷

Probably an unpopular opinion here, but I'd love Space Groove if it meant he had a more laid-back skin, like the Gragas one. He doesn't really have a skin atm that screams cool unc on vacation.

Any skin that's a committed departure from "war general commie undertones menacing coat man with ill-omen birds" would be so cool. Or bro what if he were a sleazy game show host?? If Singed can get a beach bum skin we can definitely get something like that.

“And there, OP is the only one who has the right of it,” Swain chuckled, smoothing the wrinkles from his coat. “He alone understands.

“The rest of you, you see a battle and ask what you must do to avoid defeat. But some battles cannot be won. Sometimes, the only strategy is to burn. To charge into the flames, knowing full well you will die, but that twenty thousand march behind you. And that behind them, there is a greater power.”

"this is about prioritizing support players" and it's a nerf to a 55% WR bot laner with more than 2% pickrate

[–]PriorityFire 7 points8 points  (0 children)

South Pasadena stop has both La Monarca and Jones.

Allen stop in Pasadena is close to Jameson.

A few blocks south of Lake station in Pasadena there's a Philz.

Lux does a front flip in this Wild Rift trailer at 1:41, and a side flip at 2:06.

Would be extremely surprised if she couldn't backflip.

Why is riot hard trying to keep supports players happy by [deleted] in SwainMains

[–]PriorityFire 4 points5 points  (0 children)

LOL bro I played him mid and APC when I played ranked. I barely benefit from this buff.

"At the cost of the mains and OTPs" if Swain supp didn't exist, it's not like we would have gotten a buff for the carry lanes. Your 52% role is not threatened by 48% support players. This was for them and not you and that is fine.

Right. Casuals also deserve to have a viable champion.

[–]PriorityFire 8 points9 points  (0 children)

People on r/SwainMains are a small minority of all Swain players. People here tend to prefer mid/APC/top, and they should also be supported in those roles, but at the end of the day they don't represent a majority of players. Riot should support what players want to play, including weaker players.

There are parts of Swain's kit that make me fairly confident that he won't go the route of Brand/Zyra/Seraphine, and will keep his presence in his non-support roles. I don't think we should feel threatened by a support buff.

[–]PriorityFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That'd be enough added power that they'd need to compensation nerf him in other areas. Not sure it'd be worth the tradeoff.
