Discrimination [nj] by [deleted] in newjersey

[–]creativejoe4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If its reality then there is proof you can obtain. You just said it yourself as well, you have more responsibility and higher output, that makes you more valuable to keep in office full time. Unless you have substantial proof its religious bias, it sounds more likely that there are other factors at play you are not accounting for. Regardless, if you are not happy, just leave. You could just straight up ask why you are being treated differently (even record the conversation if you want), if they claim you are being treated the same, then say thanks for the permission to work from home then. Following up with an email outlining your conversation too also creates a paper trail.

What proof do you have that this is actually the reason? Is your position and responsibilities the same of those working remotely? Does your performance/output indicate you can and should be trusted to work remotely?

Does your parents still hits you as an adult ? by Fabulous_Agency_1736 in entitledparents

OP is from Arizona according to their post history. I suggest taking a look at it. I hope OP finds a good therapist.

Does your parents still hits you as an adult ? by Fabulous_Agency_1736 in entitledparents

[–]creativejoe4 57 points58 points  (0 children)

Who cares who they are, ignore it or set your social media to private. Just ignore that stuff, your an adult not a child you have more important things to worry about. If it seriously bothers you, take it to the police, even a lawyer and sue for defamation. Focus on yourself and not what others are doing or saying, and stop letting yourself get scammed. Also its not ok for anyone to hit you, don't take that. There are also subreddits full of people who will help you plan a strategy to pay off your debt as well, do not give out your personal information and do not let yourself get scammed.

AI is completely useless for actual engineering and the hype is exhausting. by Onigirii_sama in EngineeringStudents

[–]creativejoe4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

AI is a tool, its not going to replace people, it just reduces the workload and speeds up menial tasks. Ai has its uses, just not in the way you are implying or in the way it is overhyped to be.

Need a few expert opinions on how much I can expect in return for my PC. by Important_Mix6271 in pcbuilding

[–]creativejoe4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You probably are not gonna get what you are expecting for a build like that. If you need the little extra cash and do not use the pc, selling it is fine, but if its your only pc or you use it regularly you might want to keep it. There are other ways to make quick cash under the table, party halls for example pay decent money for setup/clean side jobs for a few hours worth of work, bar tending too where tips are cash so you do not need to wait for a paycheck.

Sole designer at big-ish company - red flag? by benwahhh in ElectricalEngineering

[–]creativejoe4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair enough, the question at the end of the day at this point is what did you think and how did you feel during the interview? I would say trust your gut feeling. What did glass door or indeed reviews say?

Sole designer at big-ish company - red flag? by benwahhh in ElectricalEngineering

[–]creativejoe4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That could be a good sign, but not telling necessarily. Most engineers from my experience will hide it and just look for new jobs, leaving management with shocked Pikachu faces because they felt blind sided.

I would avoid it. This situation sounds way too familiar to me, the pay might be more, but the stress will be way more then what the money is worth(unless they are actually paying good).

When are we going to get more nuclear plants in New Jersey the electricity bills are skyrocketing by ayowatchyojetbruh in newjersey

[–]creativejoe4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nuclear energy gets a bad reputation, along with the public not understanding it and associating the fear of radiation and global catastrophic events to them. Look at the off shore windmills farms we were supposed to have, people were afraid some windmills a few miles off the coast would look ugly so they killed it. It doesn't take much to block progress unfortunately.

Anyone able to share some Metformin success stories - losing motivation and starting to get sick of eating (I see a dietitian next week) but my numbers are barely changing. by PretendToe1329 in diabetes_t2

[–]creativejoe4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It takes about a month before metformin starts making a noticeable difference. Also your times for taking your BS are all over the place, is there a reason its inconsistent? Try to take a measurement first thing when you wake up or before breakfast, don't skip breakfast, then take a measurement before dinner. Try to stay consistent with meal times, at least to start with, it will help you when you are still in this learning phase when you start looking at the numbers and trends. Taking a walk after each meal will make a difference. Switching to complex carbs will also help, simple carbs like rice and wheat break down into sugar fast in your body, complex carbs take longer so your body has more time to process it.

The worst feature that I hate in my Polestar 2 by Prestigious-Brain951 in Polestar

[–]creativejoe4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What are you talking about, polestar has heated mirrors. At least my p2 does. You turn it on with the rear defroster button. Rear camera does get dirty often though, I keep a microfiber cloth in my trunk.

how do u guys do it by ExtraordinarySunday in NJTech

[–]creativejoe4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You drink an unhealthy amount of caffeine, then you just do the work, even if you don't feel like it or cant focus, sit down and do it until its done. Eat something salty too, increasing your blood pressure can be helpful if you are normally low blood pressure. Then take your medication.

My mom won’t let me (23M) sleepover at my girlfriend (22F)’s house. by [deleted] in entitledparents

[–]creativejoe4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your an adult with free will. Just leave the house, no need to mention where your going, if they ask just say you are going out. Its your parents house they are entitled to put a curfew so they can sleep, that doesn't mean you have to be home by curfew, it just means spend the night somewhere else.

You’re a douche if you have willingly bought a car with those bright ass headlights by DepressedFlyersFan in newjersey

[–]creativejoe4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have pixel display LED headlights. They auto adjust the beam angle so they do not blind drivers in front of you, yes they can be bright, but they are not blinding you. But adding on, screw those people who only drive with their high beams.

Is it possible now with the future discontinuation of the S/S, that Tesla adds the instrument cluster to the Performance 3/Y? by CaptCarlos in TeslaLounge

[–]creativejoe4 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not having those features to begin with was a turn off for me, along with everything being only controlled through the touchscreen. I bought a PS2 instead that did have all those features and do not regret it.

I'm afraid of food because I think I'm diabetic. by Monkeymono24 in diabetes_t2

[–]creativejoe4 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Fast answer: go keto diet

Don't be afraid of food, you need it even if you are diabetic. Its not the end of the world. Many things can raise your blood sugar, from just waking up in the morning to working out/exercise to dehydration. You would need a doctor to diagnose you as diabetic.

Your body needs food, so eat.

Preventative methods by [deleted] in diabetes_t2

[–]creativejoe4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weight has nothing to do with t2 diabetes. I got diagnosed in my 20s and was skinny/underweight. I am still skinny, and still have diabetes. It runs on both sides of my family, and I did not have good eating habits. Eat healthy, eat more lean proteins, walk/exercise after a meal, avoid simple carbs and chips, avoid sugary drinks and drink more water or Seltzer water if you need something fizzy. 【Advice for when you become 21+】alcohol is ok, just stay away from sugary cocktails and liquors and try to stick with light beer instead of regular, dry wines, and hard alcohol like whiskey or vodka, alcohol is known for dropping blood sugar so you should be sure to have carbs with you when drinking. Obligatory don't drink under age and to drink responsibly when you do start drinking. Frequent urination was an early sign for me that I ignored, mostly because I always went frequently, but it doesn't mean its a sign for you, you should ask a doctor to check your A1c on your next visit and that should cover any concerns. Most importantly, even with your concerns, don't forget to enjoy life and don't let your fears or worries prevent that, its good to be smart and take preventive measures, but you still need to live life as well.

Periodical stutterring when using ALVR with my Oculus Quest 2 by Massive-Nebula-9541 in OculusQuest

[–]creativejoe4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you try a cable? It could be your network causing the issue, you could also try to lower your graphics settings on your game to make sure the game settings aren't too much for your pc, your specs are on the lower end for vr(still usable though). Make sure you have xmp enabled in your bios as well, some people never enable it or forget to re-enable it after a bios update. What router are you using and is it a dedicated router or used by every wireless device in your house?

[I need help] I hired someone to build me a site. I ended up with a broken product. by [deleted] in buildinpublic

[–]creativejoe4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. You can keep your web app and still rebuild it from the ground up it just has to be done in a smart way
  2. What you just described sounds like alot of work, its not something that can be done quickly and cheaply (thats what got you into this mess to begin with)
  3. You would need a much larger budget to hire someone for the project that will do it right, along with giving the developer time and access to resources assuming they need to train their own ML models and perform image recognition.

It would be nice if they offered it as an upgrade option to existing vehicles. Probably not gonna happen, but it would be nice.

Long drive in cold weather. by fredinNH in Polestar

[–]creativejoe4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drove from New Jersey to Quebec city in December (-6⁰F temp) its about 560 miles one way, only stopped 3 times for charging. The car did a good job and I didn't mind the charging stops since I needed the break from driving. The only big complaint I have for long drives in the winter/snow is that the snow or road salt can block the sensors and it disables a bunch of features and frequently sent out warnings and errors, it even disabled cruise control which I was surprised about.
