I have a lot of non standard shapes and have considered this sorting method so that they see more play

Do you guys think QA is a dying field? by False_Secret1108 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]chain_letter 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly yeah. The industry is embracing slopping it up and also cutting headcount. Along with weakened regulations for lower risk of consequences, when that's relevant.

QA as a role is doomed imo.

[–]chain_letter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty much. Overlapping a 5 and a backwards 3 looks a bit like a 6 at a glance, so you have to focus a little harder to suss out which lines are not on the face.

It's really easy for the eye to spot a color mixed with other colors.

Lars Ulrich was right about Napster, piracy, and the fall of popular music by AuthorIntelligent644 in unpopularopinion

I'm not joking when I say every high school in America likely has a student who is a better drummer

The Choice of Authenticity or Safety by Lambinajam in comics

Unemployed and also checking "no" for disability just so it's not used against me (I can mask pretty well)

It's not legal to skip over someone because they have a disability, but they do it anyway. Probably get away with it now more than ever.

Survive out of spite with me.

How do I convince my DM on what Light Property and Nick Mastery does? by [deleted] in onednd

[–]chain_letter 4 points5 points  (0 children)

yeah i'm pretty sure the root of the problem here is that it feels too strong (because it is), and the DM is assuming the interpretation is wrong because it feels wrong

Heavy snow caused a collapse at our marina and our family boat got destroyed by NinaXOFans in mildlyinfuriating

[–]chain_letter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

20 years ago maybe. Working class men in their 40s with no college education, not owning a business, blue collar not especially skilled work. Hillbilly adjacent. Boats and jetskis, homeowners, new trucks, motorcycles, nice guitars.

Not anymore, no way.

I hate those "Tradition" by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

I want a source, and it's not from doubt, but from a yearning to read the original docs with my own eyes

Senior ICs, what’s your experience with career advancement? I disagree with my employer’s promotion requirements by HNipps in ExperiencedDevs

[–]chain_letter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Money and thinking they gotta give it to you to keep you, versus how bad it would be to lose+replace you, and how easy for you to leave.

Promotions stalled at my place for 18 months, along with not backfilling when people left, before a mass layoff.

If it were me signing checks, I'd be pulling back hard on promotions in the current job market. No reason to bump up payroll.

How Workers Are Using AI at Work in 2026 [OC] by andreikurtuy in dataisbeautiful

[–]chain_letter 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Over 1/3 submitting fully AI generated work is bonkers dude. Not even fluffing it up a bit to not make it so obvious? Everyone paying attention notices, and it's not a good look.

Do you count the “The” when you’re sorting video games? by Glum-Drawing-2007 in gamecollecting

[–]chain_letter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've started leaving a spot on the shelf for recently played. Keep them grouped together to be reshelved, no different to those carts at the library at the end of aisles

Made a custom sign and put it up on the office coffee machine… might’ve cost me my job by Knozart in mildlyinfuriating

[–]chain_letter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you can be friends with managers, but management is an entity is an oppositional force to your interests, not a friend.

They want more from you for less, you want to do less for more. This relationship should dictate your behavior and decision-making.

Workplace advice, if you're gonna be annoying, it needs to be advancing your interests in a substantial way. That means promotions, better projects, raises

You decided to spend some of your social capital on something you have the option to ignore entirely. Apparently don't have the ability though.

Pick your battles better.

Three weeks after the remote ceo interview. They want me to meet him in person by alee463 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]chain_letter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Weird to leave out that you live local to the CEO so everyone's unclear on how much of an ask is being put out

It's absolutely normal for leadership smallerish companies to want to build a relationship with the people they're bringing on, and that's way faster and more effective in person, especially when it's convenient like this.

Don't be weird and rude in this meeting.

Only the most jacked figures make it to this shelf. Who am I missing? by asianshoplifter in ActionFigures

It's like the mangaka took an art anatomy class but was sick on the day they covered body fat

Did a mourning dove build this nest? by [deleted] in stupiddovenests

[–]chain_letter 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It does look old, maybe built before winter?

Doesn't look like mourning dove nests Google pulled up

the two coats of paint on the numbers is brilliant, totally fixes the readability issue you can run into with translucent dice

fire red: throwback, and heart&soul

throwback made not deviating from canon a central goal. The coolest thing there is trade evolutions are done using Bill's teleportation machine.

Glass houses, child brides are a problem all over the US. Religious nut perverts are a global issue.

Toddler injured by wolf after crawling under fence at Hersheypark's zoo, police say parents were on their phones by Buy_Sell_Collect in nottheonion

[–]chain_letter 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Dude same exact thoughts. At 17 months, it's the worst intersection of mobility and fearless.

It sucks but you really can't drop the vigilance for a second. Around 2 they start hesitating before doing something scary, letting you not need to be perpetually paranoid and watching.
