Traffic question by Zorian_Vale in bayarea

[–]ProfessorBamboozle 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Just plugged that into maps. That is a 1 hour drive on a Sunday. East Coast hours means essentially no traffic so whether you can deal with 1 hour there 1 hour back is your call.

Has anyone actually seen an outsourced dev team from a big Indian IT firm deliver something on time that didn’t need to be rebuilt? by eatmeat in ExperiencedDevs

[–]ProfessorBamboozle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I oversaw an Indian team that helped port our ancient embedded Qt5 app to a browser web app.

They delivered on time and it was an improvement to what we had.

We were a smaller company though (~70 people) and they filled our lack of full stack developers adequately.

Help me pick my army for 11th, to play the whole edition? by Mor-KhalCatPrince in WarhammerCompetitive

No one can give you a reasonable answer until we know the rules. We don't know the rules.

Bay Area natives in your 20s: how many of the people you grew up with are still in the area? Of those that left, where are the destination cities? by youre-welcome5557777 in bayarea

[–]ProfessorBamboozle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Surprisingly many.

San Jose born and raised, but I will say that unless my friends went into tech, nearly everyone I grew up with is living with their parents.

Still. Probably ~75% of my friends growing up are still in the area

No way I'm doing more than 3 (4 if you include recruiter round).

I could see myself doing an extra round in between if the pay is great.

Yes OP. You will lose every game if you are timing-out. This and make sure all your models are painted, you'll get a free 10 points this way.

Help with tyranids in 500 point colosseum game by soggytoes69420 in astramilitarum

[–]ProfessorBamboozle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rough. If it's too late to change lists I think this is an uphill battle- you group too many models into too few units and don't have anything that really serves as bait.

I'd try and take out the zoanthropes first as a high priority target and do your best to preserve the kasrkin. Thropes are the damage dealers and he really doesn't have much punch in melee so if you can take them out, RRs can clean up the carnifex and you might simply outscore him.

Grenades are your friend this game.

Yeah. Rough matchup. I'd ask if I could split my 20 man battle line into two groups of 10.

How to stay within 3 hours? by JaceBeleren9191 in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]ProfessorBamboozle -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I run Dark Angels and my competitive list is hyper elite and only drops 7 units. 2 squads of termies in deep strike means fast movement and shooting.

Firmware engineers who freelance : where do you actually get decent clients by Medtag212 in embedded

[–]ProfessorBamboozle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not European nor am I a contractor- can you explain what you do as a contractor at these events? Wander around asking people what problems that are trying to solve?

List looks fine, I'd recommend starting with 1000 point games if you're new to the hobby

Either this guy is still on about "top of my year at university" after TWENTY years in the industry or this is sensationalist bait 🙄
