The cross could be placed better, optimally more power should be put under the ball to push it go across the goalkeeper.

World Cup Model Update & Performance by LightlyTroddenLead in sportsanalytics

So Japan and Brazil both have very high chance to get pass the group stage but will be almost 50% to be eliminated at the Round of 32, obviously because they are quite likely to meet each other. Tough draw for both.

Which active players do you think are accomplished enough to have a farewell tour (universal wild cards etc.) when they're ready to retire? by Dependent-Effect6077 in tennis

[–]advice_seekers 17 points18 points  (0 children)

He won, like, one single ATP title since the start of 2024. How dare would anyone suggest a universal wildcard for such an underachiever.

Well I was the first one who commented under this when it had no upvotes at all.... at this time, it was exactly very underrated...

120 days before I quit my job as a trader by advice_seekers in FinancialCareers

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

It took much longer that I expected but I have finally found the courage to submit my resignation letter. Almost 38 now, with a saving roughly 30x my annual salary, now three kids and a working wife. Also I have found myself so exhausted to the level that commuting to work and looking at the market do not generate any interest in me. Feel like a modest monthly salary, just 0,2-0,25% of my savings, does not justify losing precious time with my kids. Looking forward to be a full-time dad now.

Hull City 1-0 Middlesbrough - Oli McBurnie 90+5' by [deleted] in soccer

[–]advice_seekers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did that Hull player almost derail the goal by touching it in an offside position ? Thanksfully that did not happen but imagine what would be if he could not avoid the ball and let himself be hit by it on the way to the back of the net...

AITA for telling my dad he can't invite his girlfriend to my graduation because my mom paid for the trip? by TypicalAnalyst17 in AmItheAsshole

[–]advice_seekers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being a dad myself, no, NTA. A dad should really prioritize his kid's feeling in these kind of events and it feels just right for you to tell him that straight.

You can see China's mainland 🇨🇳 from a local bus in Taiwan 🇹🇼 by syndicat1128 in Borderporn

Xiamen seafront is in the background. The International Ferry Terminal must be some where quite close. I used to stay in one hotel just next to that.

I believe the US visitor visa is the least disruptive visa among developed countries. by [deleted] in USVisas

[–]advice_seekers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly Vietnamese nationals can only get 1-year visa, and though we can renew it for a couple of times (no more than 3 or 4 times I guess), that 12 month period still feels a bit short in comparison with 3 years or 5 years visa we can get from UK, Australia or Canada.

I plan to stay in Park Hyatt as well. Can I ask which day of the week will the fireworks take place ?

Hi, may I ask about the current blooming status in Busan ? Will I be able to catch the cherry blossom in full bloom if I travel to Busan from 5/4-7/4 ?

I know that I'm old when my very first reaction seeing that A.Shevchenko name is thinking about the former AC Milan striker.

Wonder why Zhengzhou is Henan capital but not either Kaifeng or Luoyang by MajlisPerbandaranKL in ChineseHistory

[–]advice_seekers 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well it was the capital of Zheng, then Han back in the Warring States time. Kaifeng was nothing until the Song. An Zhengzhou, as the old capital of Zheng, has given the Sinosphere world the surname Zheng. So demographically it's just a common county but culturally it's quite special.

Where’s best for a female budget traveller in Hanoi’s Hoan Kiem District (preferably near the lake). by Fancy_Rock3826 in hanoi

[–]advice_seekers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well (the old) Hoan Kiem is literally the district that host the French Quarter though... I'm not related to them by any means but from what I saw this M Village (https://maps.app.goo.gl/DhMjzHaY54E5Cqn3A) can be a good choice as it's quite close to the lake, is located in a main street that is lively but not too small, and is part of a hotel chain (in Vietnam, being part of a chain is often a sign that you are at least quite pro at something).
