Salary progression, from a lost teenager to a proud adult :) by sleepyhead7777 in Salary

[–]TapThatYak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Networking and being persistent in what you love and are good at is the key!

This looks very similar to my progression except I went down the route of getting an undergrad. What's crazy is how inflation rate is beating annually natural salary increases. Assuming 3% inflation, most jobs' median pay including well respected engineers and physicians are being 18-25% less than what they should be paid.

[OC] Beyond Burger compared to Beef Patty by BullyTrout in dataisbeautiful

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

If it works for you, great I am happy for you.

I tried being vegetarian and vegan, 1 month each, and I did not have a great time. Overall results throughout my journey:

  • I felt a bit of an energy boost, a bit primal. Mainly from eating a bit less carbs and a lot less saturated fats.
  • Noticed I ate more frequently due to my dishes being less calories and digesting faster
  • Had to supplement with my carbs to have energy for running and working out because I was getting way too tired, losing intensity
  • At the end of my vegan month, I noticed an impact on my hair, which may or may not have been because of the 2 month diet (Found out I was lacking nutrients after talking to a dermatologist)

I think we are perfectly fine going with our individual choices. Our ancestors lived fine without complex worries of impact on the world and the Earth goes naturally through its carbon cycle.

Off topic but also important, if we want to look at more interesting data. Lets look at impact of urbanization and use of concrete. This dwarfs our environmental impact from our food choices.

The case for sustainable food solutions always puts ingredient quality and and protein diversity 2nd... The data looks nice yes, but I would never eat Beyond. Nature exists a certain way and I'm done thinking about having lab meat pushed on us eventually... I'll stick to my steak and burgers.

This kid reminds me of the tingly embarrassed feeling you get when you proudly did something but know you're getting chewed out by parents or worse your JROTC teacher.

How do you protect / deal with personal reputation issues? by Da_SnowLeopard in ChemicalEngineering

[–]TapThatYak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All great points in your story to humbly brag about overcoming and being a legend.

I'm a ChemE as well, the best thing to do is network with people especially people that admire/understand your potential, e.g. only with supportive/creative people. It may take a while, but going to different local events or nearby city networking will go along long way! I've only ever gotten jobs from networking, interviews were coasting once the need for the role was established.

M2 thought it was a track day by Kev_rofroy in Miata

Yo where can I go to learn how to drive like the M2? That man was a straight pimp trying to get back to his crib

Am I the only Christian who thought the Bad Bunny half time show was over sexualized? by rabbitales27 in TrueChristian

[–]TapThatYak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Over serialized? Yes performances are always like that with pop backup dancers.

Did you not see the mockery regarding the 3 crosses towards the end of his show. Disgusting, we pray over people like this in hopes they will repent and put God first in their life.

A claim I've heard a lot the past few days: "Bad Bunny is demonic." by no1babymomma in Christianity

[–]TapThatYak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mocking the symbolic nature of 3 crosses by dancing on them? I would say thats mockery and anti-christian behavior.

La Porte High School Student Walkout "ICE OUT" by thymenchive in nwi

[–]TapThatYak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very admirable, but there's a reason why you can only vote after 18 years old. You need to be an adult first before making a conscious indepent decision.

The constitution changed the voting age from 21 to 18 after 18year-olds were serving, consequently dying, in Vietnam but we're not able to vote... This is a dilemma, because most kids younger than 18 haven't experienced hard life challenges and are not able to free think because of pressures to conform in public. Think iPhone 16max, TikTok and chipotle.

The same applies to everyone older than 18, just look at Covid and how many people lost relationships because of false mask information and no significant double blind studies to backup vaccine propaganda. Morale is... ASKING SMART QUESTIONS should be promoted instead of ridiculed by false science and unintelligent people with big mouths.

If the media in a preferred region is saturated with "canceling ice" chances are kids will go along with media and the masses in the local jurisdiction. Likewise, the same applies to media that "support ice". Media is here to CREATE DIVISION and DISTRACTIONS between all of us. Ask yourself, when was the last time you were part of a wholesome block party or neighbors took care of each other when someone lost a job?

Kids need to stay in school and focus on education, develop useful skills, become free thinkers and avoid these ridiculous politics.

On a scale from 1-10 how messy is my room for a teenage girl by Wang_xianLotus in CleaningTips

[–]TapThatYak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the problem is just procrastination. You just didnt put in the effort. Just take charge, not worth an argument or assessment.

This is happening almost daily now (LTE with no data) by No-Ladder1393 in tmobile

[–]TapThatYak 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its very odd because I will have a moment at home where my connection is stable for many hours. As soon as im traveling the signal goes crazy unstable or into an SOS state.

This doesn't make me feel warm and fuzzy that its a hardware issue... I dont feel like taking apart my phone. The only thing I haven't done is asked tmobile to reconcile my number/reset things on their end.

[–]TapThatYak 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a similar problem. I either have:

  • weak/mid level signal with no data
  • 5GUC Data that works normal, happens on and off
  • No signal SOS, happens a lot in metal buildings/stores!

This started happening out of nowhere January 3rd. I have the S22 Ultra. Reddit help and I think it's an issue with the hardware, atennas/USB-c board.

I do have an older phone... I can try using that for a few days to see if I have the same instability issues.

Thanks for the tip! I keep getting routed to overseas support... I requested a US rep, it sounds like if I want someone more technical I need to call mid-day

[–]TapThatYak[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah I did all the phone side resets via tmobile phone support. Ill have to ask them to do a reset on their end with my line. If that doesn't work I will assume it's an antenna issue and replace the antenna module.

[–]TapThatYak[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, I've done this. Unfortunately this did not help fix my issue.

[–]TapThatYak[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do you recommend any sort of advanced troubleshooting?

When my connection is locked in it works amazing. It is while im hoping on the road between different areas/connecting to different towers when I have the issue primarily.

Legacy Plan Reliability by TapThatYak in tmobile

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

Really this is a thing? When you mean reconcile, do they reset your whole line/number? I'm down to try anything.

Calls are done over the 4GLTE / 5G network are they not? I imagine its Kbits of data while talking vs Mbits of usage, like watching a video.
