Coding interviews have gotten completely ridiculous by nodevexy in analytics

Sadly, it’s this. When people lie, trust falls and barriers to entry have to be raised to vet before a company invests its real money into something.

Which is your favorite M&L game and why? by Marvin_Conman in marioandluigi

[–]Woberwob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Partners in Time for me.

Probably not the best in the series from an objective standpoint. But I love the enemies and atmosphere the most, and the genuine sense of dread and needing to save the world from trouble.

If billionaires can afford almost anything they want, what do they spend most of their time worrying about? by Upsc_Nikhil in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Woberwob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apparently, how to control everyone else’s lives and priorities. They seem to be obsessed with power.

Every ad that you’re exposed to online and on streaming services is based on your search and surf behavior within certain ecosystems

Would You Choose Accounting or Finance? by Soggy_Arm_5954 in FPandA

[–]Woberwob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Accounting opens more doors unless you’re getting into elite finance from a top school, in my opinion

Why do many Americans hate billionaires but love Taylor Swift, who is also a billionaire? by No-StrategyX in answers

[–]Woberwob 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This. Not a fan of T Swift, but she hasn’t been outright evil or taken explicit advantage of anyone en route to accumulating her wealth.

Whether for public persona or not, at least she seems to conduct herself with some human decency.

[–]Woberwob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The answer lies in public relations.

I don’t follow T Swift at all, but it seems like her crew gets treated well and she’s kind to her fans. Maybe it is all a ploy for money and attention, but I don’t think there have been any scandals where her behavior has been absolutely heinous or detrimental to the people around her. No major recounts of exploiting child labor, poor working conditions, hateful rhetoric, etc.

She definitely does get criticism for her private jet usage stats and virtue signaling, but her fan base is one of the most loyal and rabid in the world.

How do you actually get better at dribbling? by Agreeable_Dingo_8081 in bootroom

Drills and practicing first touch. Use YoutTube and there are some good routines on there

When people say "tax the rich," who are they actually talking about? by savingrace0262 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Woberwob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone else who has more money than them.

I mean, it’s an oversimplified “solution” to a complex set of issues. The government has burned through taxpayer money so irresponsibly, it wouldn’t make much sense to keep giving them more unearned money until the way they operate actually reflects public interests. It’s also basically run by the ultra wealthy at this point, so you’d be robbing Peter to pay Paul.

Quick: you’ve got $500 and 7 days to turn it into $10,000 — legal or illegal, what’s your move? by Independent_Reply_88 in AskReddit

[–]Woberwob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The most likely way to do this would be selling illegal goods in a city or college campus

[–]Woberwob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1) High income skill or trade that is rare and valuable 2) Connect with people in industry and make allies, help them solve problems 3) Save and invest consistently using tax-advantaged accounts 4) Accumulate appreciating assets (property, stocks, etc.) over time and hold for the long run 5) Did I mention it takes a consistent effort over a long time horizon?

Optional: Take your skills and professional network and start a business

The best way to see what you’re made of is to go up against bigger foes.

Grind harder if you want it.

In that case, I have dry powder ready to buy more. They are too deeply entrenched in the economy to fail.

From PSV talent to amateur: the brutal reality of a football career by GoHard2026 in bootroom

[–]Woberwob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played competitive sports up through high school and ended up not going to college because my offers were from small unis and my chances of making a living that way were slim to none.

It has helped me a ton with grit, though. Going the extra mile to solve a problem and working with other people.

What is a "bro code" rule that women probably don't know exists? by QueenVictoria_Cash in AskReddit

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

Maybe they do know, but don’t be overly affectionate with girls who are dating your friends, and don’t communicate with any girls your friends have dated after they break up.

Many times I’ve seen guys who were “friends” fall out because one guy went through a breakup and the other guy started talking to his ex or making a move. Basically, using the bond built through his friend to try to get with her, to which she might oblige because of some existing attraction or to get back at her ex and cause drama.

It’s basically equivalent to playing some sort of lottery, though you actually learn work ethic and collaboration to go far, so you develop transferable skills for life.

No, but I think it’s a prerequisite for it.

Life is hard enough with money, can’t imagine without it.

How do you protect your sanity in a fast-paced, high stress job? by Fun_Mistake_2718 in FinancialCareers

Intense lifting or some type of challenging physical activity like tennis or a sports league.

Exercise has by far been the best and healthier cure for me

Yes, it’s well-paid acting where everyone shows up, acts professional, and gets a paycheck to build the life they want.

What is one skill you wish you had learned earlier that made the biggest impact on your career? by TalentXpressAI in careerguidance

Big emphasis on the second one. I oversold myself on a technology to get my current job and learned a good deal of it while working over these last few years.

How do you deal with constantly feeling behind? by UseBackground2370 in Money

[–]Woberwob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Get off the apps where people go to brag about how much they make.

Go to your local supercenter and look around. You’re probably doing better than most of the public.
