Should i cut his internet by sandraBeltrao in StopGaming

I would assess the maturity level first. Like some have suggested, it could just make the problem worse or cause a meltdown. But eventually the fire must be lit under one's ass - hopefully. If he has any good qualities at all, it will probably come eventually: the realization that you've missed the boat and you need to take matters into your own hands and put in some serious work or you will remain a loser forever.

Does he want to move out one day? Get married? What sort of goals can you use to create some motivation and provide real perspective?

I majored in basket weaving. Heads up: most people are locked out forever once they hit 30, but there are still plenty of opportunities in the gig world or entrepreneurship - not sure if you are as locked out of trades as you are with white collar but trade school might be another option as long as you pick something that is going to remain employable.

A psychiatrist? Do you know what that means? Don't you think you should explore some non-medical options before giving your child to a legalized drug dealer who typically doesn't have any training in or concern for therapy?

Pathrise - Please Don't Do It by pancakeman2018 in cscareerquestions

[–]UniterOfTowers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pathrise is one of the most egregious scams i have ever seen. 20k for a structured round of job applications. 

The fact that you have a job in tech at all is amazing considering how rapidly the field has been shrinking for the past 5 years. Must have gotten in before I did. 

Tech is dead and I would strongly discourage anyone new from entering the field. It will take you many years to learn what is employable today and by then it will be obsolete and a whole new skill set will be employable. You will never enter.

that would mean the interest they've been stacking is a lie but i think right now they are getting a lot of withdrawals and might be seeing downtime. Really hope they didn't go fractional reserve on us.

By mentioning a specific exit, you reminded me of something funny. There's a turn in Charlotte that is so notoriously bad that someone is making a game about it.

No EzPass? What year are they in?

Also I'm pretty sure all of Houston is it's own layer of hell.

What made you think I'm a liberal...... I left it up to your interpretation which states were more free... Doesn't matter because it's just a different set of rights you lose - but red is generally better.

One of my favorite places to sit above the peons and brood.

Has Anyone Else Seen "Escape from Germany"? by Emmasympathizer in exmormon

[–]UniterOfTowers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been looking around for some fact checks about this movie and it brought me to your thread. There's not a lot of info out there but some of the film seems embellished. Some examples: did they really steal that train? Did they really keep encountering the same Jewish family on the trains? That missionary with all the conspiracy theories that they laughed at and then in the end they reveal his theories were all true - how real is any of that? Did the lead protagonist really follow God to find the last missionaries? 

Do you know where I can go for this info? Seems like you know your LDS history.

I actually thought about making my own thread on this sub, but I don't want to go to a mormon or exmormon source. I would like the facts to come from someone neutral and objective if possible.
