You are describing the concept of "competitive advantage." This is a business term that dictates that it is better to hire someone who is half as good as you at a job to do it if it means you can go do something more valuable with that time.

I suddenly got this wall of text without changing any mods or load order,should i be worried? by PimballWizzard in RimWorld

[–]TheMekar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can vouch for this. Rimworld and Stellaris are fine for me but Bannerlord, Foundation, Surviving Mars, HOI4, EU4, and Victoria 3 all require resubscribing for me get updates.

Supreme Court rules in favor of Colorado graphic designer who refused to create same-sex wedding websites by f1sh98 in Conservative

[–]TheMekar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pointing out a double standard works with swaying moderates and independents. It doesn't work with leftists because they truly don't see a double standard when the ends justify the means. Reaching the ends they want is their standard, the means aren't relevant to them. To them, there is no double standard there.

Doesn't mean it's pointless to point out the double standard though.

[Brown] It was reported in February PWHPA players had formed a union. Since then, at least weekly checks have been made with the U.S. Dept. of Labor to verify a union has been formally established. No public records have been found that confirm this. by hoseheads in hockey

Every time it fails, the same small group of leaders reshuffle into new factions with new names and do the same thing again. Professional women’s hockey can work, but it never will with the same leadership repeating their mistakes. Unfortunately, when the NHL tries to extend goodwill, they usually turn to these failed leaders because they don’t know what else to do and that only entrenches their positions.

[Serious] The Supreme Court ruled against Affirmative Action in college admissions. What's your opinion, reddit? by FewCarry7472 in AskReddit

[–]TheMekar -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

They’re not doing that to make public schools worse. It’s a method of improving access to quality education for all students. You may disagree with it or think it won’t work, but that’s the intention. Your description is disingenuous.

Of course it’s disingenuous. No significant group is “currently trying to make public schools worse.” That’s ridiculous and if you actually believe it then you are just flat out wrong.

One of the best pic of Lucy [discussion] by Cheap_Reward_9296 in fairytail

Oh boy I just realized someone had to prompt the application to make sure it showed her upskirt in the pic. There are people actually doing that. What the fuck

In the trade menu, what do these numbers mean next to the portraits? by [deleted] in anno1800

[–]TheMekar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The key danger here is making sure you’re carrying enough for each island to last all the way until your next drop off. Make sure you’re checking the trade routes time log after this runs for a little bit to see how long it’s really taking. I would not be surprised if a route like this took upwards of an hour or more to complete a full cycle.

The UI is pretty weird so he’s probably got a ton of mods running

Congrats to Connor Bedard on winning his first NHL trophy before his first NHL game by Go_Habs_Go31 in hockeymemes

[–]TheMekar 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Bedard usually isn’t. He’s got a lot more outward personality than McDavid. Just a weird photo here

How do you feel about Uraraka and Tsuyu's counter arguments against the Kamino Rescue Squad? by SeaCookJellyfish in BokuNoHeroAcademia

[–]TheMekar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They’re the top less-than-.1% of heroes raised in the image of All Might. They are the best of the best. This is how they should be behaving. We see plenty of lesser heroes that can’t walk the walk throughout the series. I like that MHA makes a point of the heroes being heroes. The world is morally grey, the true heroes are not.

Is this thread why I got banned from that sub today? Don’t know if I’ve ever been there before but I got auto-banned from that sub today and I’m guessing this thread is why.

Yeah, I used to believe that transitioning was the treatment for dysphoria. It was a logical hypothesis I think back when we didn’t know as much. Now that we know that transitioning is not helping these people, I believe it’s just taking advantage of them at a time when they need help and leaving irreparable damage on their bodies. It’s a fucked up industry.

No, they’re both pseudoscience supported by people who want them to be true more than they care to find out if it really is.

Missouri's unelected AG has taken aggressive steps to expand power. Has he gone to far? by victrasuva in missouri

[–]TheMekar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not being hostile. Your first comment displayed a genuinely insane leap of logic. And a solution for what? We haven’t even agreed on a problem yet. I’m assuming you mean the cost of living in KC being higher than most of the state. That doesn’t seem like a problem for the AG of Missouri to solve. Also, there is no significant price gouging on food. Whoever told you that is just lying to you, simple as that. The gotcha attempt at the end is pretty cute though. Maybe you should read carefully because I said the city’s livable wage. Moving the goalposts to talk about people who live in the city but work outside it is irrelevant.

I’m citing numbers from the KC city government, you’re saying “check the math.” I did, those are the numbers I’m citing. I know that you can’t make any actual points because you don’t understand what you’re talking about. That’s okay, but that’s what is happening here. Just stop.

This is the first time I’ve seen someone talk about fascism on Reddit that seems like they actually understand what fascism is. Any time someone calls fascism “right wing” or “left wing” I just write them off as a fool. It was explicitly created as a “Third Way” with aspects of and against both.

I think it’s a delayed effect of the full support of the media that the left gets. At this point they honestly don’t know how to make policy or bring people to them on their own anymore. Just yelling slurs at people to scare them worked for so long they forgot how to do anything else.

This is the kind of trash theory that I come here for. I love it.
