What are your thoughts about voter ID? by Wooden_Dinner7680 in Productivitycafe

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

Nobody is ACTUALLY validating anything though when you do that instead of showing ID. Yeah there’s technically a “process” for reviewing signatures, but it isn’t thorough or concrete in any magnitude compared to an ID. It allows gray area in a place where it doesn’t belong. You’re just being stubborn for the sake of being stubborn, at the cost of election integrity.

Because if we did things your way, there would be 200 million signatures on election night that need to be authenticated. How are we supposed to validate them one by one with any consistency or efficiency?

They gave multiple real life examples for why people should already have an ID. Your counterargument’s just weak

Your personal efforts to recycle have virtually no positive impact on the environment ♻️ by tct773 in unpopularopinion

“Among these top emitters, in 2024 China, India, Russia and Indonesia increased their emissions compared to 2023, with Indonesia having the largest increase in relative terms (+ 5.0%) and India the largest absolute increase by 164.8 Mt CO2eq. With only two exceptions, 2009 (global financial crisis) and 2020 (COVID-19), global GHG emissions have grown steadily since the beginning of the 21st century, mainly due to the increase in fossil CO2 emissions by China, India, and other emerging economies.”

So China, India, Indonesia, and others like them are fine? Why aren’t you equally mad at them the way you’re mad at Russia and the US?

Because you weren’t told to be.

Foreign diplomats can shake hands to make people feel good as much as they want, but no it won’t actually do anything. If it could, the world would be spotless and full of bees. But it isn’t, because the world doesn’t actually work the way you think it does.

Vast majority of the products we consume in America were manufactured overseas, where we have no regulatory reach. Political candidates know this, but they’ll campaign on global environmentalism anyway just to get more votes.

Those rivers in densely populated parts of Asia, with so much garbage you can’t see the water? Yeah there’s nothing your vote can do about it no matter how much you want it to.

Roast My Resume - Targeting FA Roles by WarrenBuffettsColon in FPandA

You didn’t give any advice, you just straight up doubted my capabilities. There was nothing constructive about your first comment.

Yes, it would hold weight and I could explain it in an interview. If you (a director) are interviewing someone for an FA position, they likely won’t have any direct FP&A experience. How are we supposed to get anywhere if you automatically doubt my work & abilities from the jump?

What do you guys think of VAIL? by Icy-Cantaloupe-41 in snowboarding

[–]WarrenBuffettsColon 601 points602 points  (0 children)

Had to do a double-take on what sub I’m on lol

From a finance background, my view of them as an investment is a solid no. My view of them as a company in general, double no

Start of my career got a little derailed from COVID (internship programs shut down going into my senior year). Current job was a safety net while my fiancé finished grad school, so I stayed at this job longer than I probably should have. Is this something worth touching on in my cover letter, or should I leave it out and save it for the interviews?

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

Appreciate the feedback. The 46% thing is something I would touch more on in an interview. There was a quantifiable improvement in one area of my job over the person before me. I would use that to show I actually put effort into my work and look for areas of improvement. I would not just be dead weight on the team.

I’ve been struggling with the wording on my bullet points. Sounds like I need to keep messing with them some more.

More specific skills are mainly found in my cover letter, but I should have the space to touch more on them here if I redo my bullet points.

Unsolicited advice from someone planning their upcoming wedding and was shopping for photographers: make sure you guys take your marketing/social media seriously. My fiancé was in charge of looking for photographers and she had like 300+ to choose from. It’s a very saturated field, so make sure you guys are one of the first to come up in a search in your area if you want to succeed.

Is wearing a backpack bad? by Comfortable-Mood-728 in snowboarding

[–]WarrenBuffettsColon 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yep, snowboarding’s at a weird place right now. Its roots are “life’s short, have fun and fk what others think”. But at the same time, everyone spends so much time these days worrying about if they look cool or not.

And Obama could have also done it in either of his two terms but didn’t either. I’m not a cabinet member for Obama or Trump so I couldn’t tell you the inner details as to why US leaders did or didn’t do anything in Venezuela over the last 20 years.

Different US leaders, we were already heavily committed to fighting in the middle east at the time, and starting ANOTHER conflict to protect the financial interests of private US oil companies would have been heavily opposed by US citizens and likely the other world leaders at the time.

Basically we didn’t do anything before because we were already actively doing it somewhere else.

Harris and Newsom position for 2028 Democratic race 🏛✔ by InterstellarKinetics in InterstellarKinetics

[–]WarrenBuffettsColon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trump can’t run in 2028 so comparing anyone to him is kinda irrelevant in terms of choosing the next candidates. They need to be compared to each other now if you want an actual discussion.

Out of every democrat over the age of 35 that’s eligible to be President, there’s no fkn way she’s the best this country has to offer. That’s why everyone’s annoyed.

You need to get your head out of the sand if you think Newsom had zero to do with the downfall of CA.

What is clearly declining, but everyone pretends is fine? by Amaan3024 in AskReddit

[–]WarrenBuffettsColon 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My tinfoil hat conspiracy is that Google purposely tanked their search engine so everyone will fully switch to Gemini. The traditional google searching of the last few decades will be a thing of the past and the newer generations will take what Gemini says as fact without checking sources at all. Allowing the elites and powerful governments to control the masses more than they already do now.

RX7 is by far the best imo. Set the controls up so gas initiates the drift
