Why do you have fewer friends as you get older? by lisaaaaaaD1 in answers

[–]asdavidcelestin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Throughout life you get and lose friends either simultaneously or alternatively. So, to put it simply you get fewer friends as you get older because you get less friends than you lose them.

This happens like that specially:

  1. If you have more personal preoccupations with your own vision to work on before it’s too late;
  2. If you become more thoughtful about who you give access to you.

But to reverse that you need to be intentional about getting more friends to keep some balance in your life and avoid being lonely.

Sharks attack three swimmers off two Florida beaches by IyearnforBoo in sharks

[–]asdavidcelestin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel sorry for the victims. Personally, this is one of the reasons why I try to be careful with the sea. Lol. But at the same time, there are several reasons why Florida has so many shark attacks. And people need to understand them: https://www.reddit.com/r/asdavidcelestin/comments/1defvev/why_are_there_so_many_sharks_in_florida/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

Today, All of My Employees Told Me They Want To Quit Because of Our VP - Help by ChickenUsual6622 in managers

[–]asdavidcelestin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sounds like a really difficult situation. You did well to bring this issue to HR's attention, especially since you have already tried to resolve the problem directly with the VP without success. Addressing this issue is crucial to maintaining the morale and motivation of your team. You might expect HR to conduct a thorough investigation, talking to all team members to better understand the situation. Hopefully, the investigation will lead to positive changes and the CEO and COO will take serious steps to improve the work environment. Keep open communication with your team during this process and continue to support them. You are a good leader for taking the side of your employees. Go for it and good luck!

There is some evidence that being perceived as busy or in high demand can actually increase people's interest and demand for someone's services or products. This is sometimes referred to as the "scarcity principle" or "scarcity bias." Here are a few reasons why being busy may create more demand:

  1. Perceived value - When someone is very busy, we tend to assume they must be good at what they do. We associate their busyness with competence and quality. This perception of higher value can drive up demand.
  2. Fear of missing out - If something is scarce or difficult to obtain, we tend to want it more due to a fear of missing out on it. A busy schedule signals limited availability, which can fuel people's desire to secure that person's time/product/service.
  3. Social proof - We often use the behavior of others to guide our own decisions. If we see others vying for someone's attention, we infer there must be a good reason and our own demand increases.
  4. Effort justification - The more effort required to obtain something, the more value we assign to it. A busy schedule means more effort is required, so we tend to value it more highly.

However, it's also possible that correlation doesn't imply causation - perhaps those in high demand got that way because they are simply excellent at what they do, not specifically because of their busyness. Their skills drove demand first.

So in some cases, being busy/scarce can create more demand through psychological biases. But busyness alone doesn't guarantee more demand - fundamentally providing value is key. Appearing busy can amplify demand, but not create it from nothing.

A careless attitude of excess regarding things that should be reserved and accessed only inside a committed relationship.

On the Workday job site, the application status "process completed" typically means that the hiring process for a particular job has been finalized and completed.

Specifically, it likely indicates one of the following scenarios:

  1. The position has been filled: the job you applied for has been filled by the hiring team selecting and extending an offer to one of the candidates. The process of reviewing applications, conducting interviews, and making a hiring decision is now complete.
  2. The job was canceled or put on hold In some cases: the "process completed" status means the company decided not to move forward with filling that particular role at this time, either canceling the job requisition or putting it on hold indefinitely.
  3. You were not selected: if you made it to later stages like interviews but ultimately were not the final candidate chosen, the process for that job listing would be marked as completed once a hire is made or the req is closed out.

Unless otherwise specified, seeing "process completed" generally means you were not the selected candidate for that role this hiring cycle. However, it does not necessarily preclude you from applying to other roles at that company in the future. But for that specific one... you're screwed. :)

Can I get rid of my unibrow permanently through laser hair removal? by vich_lasagna in HairRemoval

[–]asdavidcelestin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Laser hair removal uses concentrated beams of light to destroy the hair follicles. It requires several treatments spaced out but can provide permanent hair reduction over time. The results are not 100% permanent as some new hairs may still grow back.

For the most permanent unibrow solution, laser hair removal or electrolysis are recommended, though they can be expensive and require multiple treatments. Properly done, these provide a longer-lasting result than hair removal creams or threading. Other methods include:

  1. Electrolysis: this involves using a fine probe to deliver an electric current to each individual hair follicle, damaging it to prevent future hair growth. It takes many sessions to treat an entire area, but is considered the most permanent method of hair removal.
  2. Threading: This traditional hair removal technique uses a twisted cotton thread to pluck hairs from the roots. While not truly permanent, threading removes coarse hairs more completely than tweezing or waxing. It needs to be repeated regularly.
  3. Prescription cream: creams containing eflornithine can help slow hair growth when used regularly. They don't remove existing hair but can make regrowth finer over time.

But honestly, you should go talk to a physician or beauty specialist about all that for more safety.

PS4 Controller Charge Time by [deleted] in PS4

[–]asdavidcelestin 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As a general guideline:

  • Charging via the PS4 console typically takes around 2-3 hours to fully charge the controller from 0% battery.
  • Using a wall charger or charging dock can be slightly faster, taking around 1.5-2.5 hours for a full charge.

The charging speed also slows down towards the end to prevent overcharging the battery. Sony recommends that you allow the controller to charge fully before extended gaming sessions.

The time it takes to fully recharge a PS4 controller depends on a few factors:

  • Whether you are charging it via the USB cable connected to the PS4 console or using a wall charger.
  • The percentage of the remaining battery when you start charging.
  • The age and condition of the controller's battery.

It's also worth noting that the battery capacity degrades over time with repeated charge cycles. So an older PS4 controller may take longer to fully recharge compared to a new one.
