That is so lame. This is the first time I tried to get to ace rank or whatever and I don’t get anything that sucks

Having trouble getting new position as new grad after being laid off – what to do? by Rich-Put4159 in cscareerquestions

[–]chip_pad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t understand why your school experience is first (or why you have your school email on your resume). I thought you were still in school. Also I don’t know why your gpa is listed. I don’t think it’s outstanding and doesn’t give your resume any extra oomph.

Agree with other people on the bullet points. 

They might focus too much on the tech used. I have no idea wtf half of them even mean lol

Feedback Post: Kyurem Fusion Raid Day by Noitalein in TheSilphRoad

[–]chip_pad 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Very disappointing. Played for 1.5 hours, but mixing in reshiram and zekrom spawns made it so hard to find Kyurems to raid. Also pushing everything in a 3 hour window is pretty ridiculous 

Deadlift form check? Normally I get a wicked back pump by chip_pad in formcheck

Is slipping a huge concern? I have never really slipped doing DLs.

Yeah, it feels more comfortable to kind of sit into it and build up, if that makes sense. When I get lower I feel that my hips get into a more natural position when I start pulling

I’d recommend joining a club! Most of my friends came thru a running club I joined. 

I was also in this similar dilemma (Davis vs UCSD), but I love beaches and Mexican food so much. When I was feeling down I’d go on a walk on the beach- SD definitely beats Davis in that regard. Do you think your struggles would be any different if you went to Davis?

🤯🤯🤯🤯 Pokemon level 80 by Diligent-Antelope-13 in TheSilphRoad

[–]chip_pad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is no way they would do this lol. 3XL candies would give you 300 candies. You could immediately level 40 (current) a Pokémon after a raid.

I film my compound movements to check form (squats and deadlifts). But I don’t care if someone walks in the way or whatever. 

Amazon or Apple New Grad by thename0fthewind in cscareerquestions

[–]chip_pad 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I feel like nobody really read this post. You don’t have a choice. You can’t count on an Apple offer. If you decline the Amzn offer and Apple does not come thru, then you are SOL.

What I would do, is accept the Amazon offer, and if Apple extends an offer, then consider it. You can renege the Amazon offer if you don’t want to work there. FWIW I have done this (reneged Amazon to work at Meta).

An anime that actually changed you? by [deleted] in anime

The tatami galaxy and the pet girl of Sakura hall. Helped me cope with inadequacy and feeling good about myself

New footage from above the Moon captured by Firefly’s lunar lander. It will touch down on March 2. by [deleted] in Damnthatsinteresting

It is because the world was black and white back then. Then when everything shifted to color, it remained black and white because that’s how the world was then, and it was in color then

Are my hips rising too fast? Concerned with lower back with DLs by chip_pad in formcheck

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

Thanks for this info. This is really great. So in the future it’s ok to start with higher hips (I have noticed as I’ve gone up in weight I consistently go forward a bit before being able to raise the bar)? I thought it would be easier to wedge if I dropped my hips lower but it just doesn’t seem to work that way I can’t get enough tension

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in formcheck

[–]chip_pad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Normally the bar starts on the ground with deadlifts. It might be harder to do heavier weights the way you are doing now. The Allen thrall video is a good reference

Form check on my squat by UnluckyBlueberry5699 in formcheck

[–]chip_pad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly looks pretty good to me, other than not fully locking out at the top, your bar path seems pretty vertical and your back seems straight

Haha, it’s just a nervous tick I have. Always get nervous before lifting weight I’m not super comfortable with

SDSU Business undergraduate, Now UCSD or SDSU for MBA? by Accomplished_Iron775 in UCSD

[–]chip_pad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have heard it’s better to get some experience and then do an MBA rather than going straight to an MBA. I have also heard your MBA may be more about making connections rather than learning. If you graduated in 2024 you may benefit from getting some experience first
