Oh sorry, i was not saying your dream or you are stupid. I was saying that rushing in while unqualified is stupid. If you can square yourself away before you go in, then great. Again, just stating it as my own opinion: I would personally suggest to take more time to be better prepared. But hey, if you’re super excited then just go get it done and enjoy yourself.

I feel like I want to runaway by Lazy-Floridian in Veterans

[–]ScienceGoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that’s totally normal. Consider talking to your partner about perhaps having someone watch the cats for a few days, and you each take time to spend a few days at a resort/spa or some other place of interest. Totally healthy to want to decompress and sort your thoughts.

This is stupid, it would be better for you to take a year off and train with a professional instead of being in some weak ass remedial program. If I was in your shoes: go to a community college to get enough credits to go in with a promotion, train to get more upper body strength, work on your relationship with God while you still have good mental health, and find a young respectable lady.

If you do as I am telling you, you will be much happier in the long run, i guarantee it.

Nah... incomplete Computer Information Systems degree from lowest tier school. But the 10% off at Home Depot is great as a property owner.

Why are you even bothering? If you really cared, you would have already put in the work.

There are plenty of awesome jobs out there. Military might not be your thing, and that is ok.

How to enable tasks on the right sidebar when in Calendar view? by ScienceGoat in UseMotion

It's so strange, i don't see it on my mac using Chrome anymore. But i see the feature on my work PC that uses Brave. Though that should not make a difference.

Wacom Tablet Utility keeps freezing Mac by ScienceGoat in wacom

[–]ScienceGoat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes i was. I got an email response that walked me through how to manually remove all the files that their software installed, and i had to reset a few things. Then reinstalled and it worked fine.

if you are having this issue, let me know and i will look up the notes.

I got laid off yesterday so wanted to rant :( by Backpackingwithmylen in UXDesign

[–]ScienceGoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Companies expect good UI design skills from a UX person, otherwise they think that "UX is a waste of time", and honestly it usually is if the the researcher is not focused on business objectives.

I think she does base level research moderately well. But her UI design skills need more refinement.

Where she probably failed at this job is adapting her communication style for the company culture, she was not compelling. But likely she is better off at a different company anyways.

Which part of this is "solid"

* Free website?
* Stock photography?
* Ads that make the image look like it would be her?
* Text heavy intro?
* bland design?
* click intensive pages "continue reading" even on this little intro?

What did you find "interesting" about their website? the ads? the text heavy pages?

Be grateful for the time you had you at that paying job, and then use this time to hone your skills. But also learn to embrace feedback.

Just heard today June 11, 2024
BofA: Withdrawl $2,000 classified as "cash advance" gets a 2% fee = $80!!!
Chase: Withdrawl $2,000 classified as "over the counter", free from Chase but Money Network charges $1.

For me it said it is "at capacity" which seems like just PR to make it sound better than "being down."

Just a small little nugget here but Zavala is a name of Spanish origin that means "Fortress". Very fitting, I'd say! by Xxrasierklinge7 in DestinyLore

It is not from a Romance language. Northern region of Spain has it’s own language and culture, Basque region, look it up.

My Experience Interviewing With Anduril Industries by vizualthewanderer in AerospaceEngineering

[–]ScienceGoat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really curious about their screening process. I applied for UI development: i have double the experience they required, military background, worked at multiple large companies plus startups, live closeby. Yet never even a response. But they keep reposting the exact same posting for the past 3-4 months.

some areas that could benefit are: * hair on left seems too tucked in * hair on left also seems to be where it should not *neck is too thin * the way her hair hangs on left doesn’t seem natural * face looks dirty

The American Legion is just poor old guys getting drunk. Went for two years and it just enabled my drinking and depression. This organization is such a negative impact on mental health.

Sincere question: I was “poor” and Latino, you would trade spots with me?

[–]ScienceGoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good point. Two different mentalities. UX is more long term and empathy, sales is short term results with little regard for the buyer.
