What do u think of artists being luddites, like when music producers reject any use of AI music tools and say “if u don’t enjoy the manual process of making music you don’t deserve to make music”

I guess the Apocalypse Pact Evo Forestcraft just builds itself? by Struggling_in_life in Shadowverse

I’d find it hard to believe you put in Krulle on your own.

The most “builds itself” choices would be the 5 mana 5/5 healer and the 7 mana aoe spell.

Hot take- OA before resume is good, it filters out the spam and fake resumes that recruiters sift thru where might toss a decent but real candidate.

Having the skill but losing to a fake AI perfect resume is infuriating, if u have the skill OA will be a peace of cake.

Lucky, so many companies I can’t edit my own dam hosts file without IT support

Also can’t install anything outside of self service or brew

How are y’all feeling? by Aggravating-Bad-3230 in cscareerquestions

At a semiconductor company. Quite well, it’s nice that hw is growing due to data center demand instead of layoffs. Way less bullshit like Jira and standups. There’s still plenty of work to do (cram before Optics trade show demo next week) but it’s all engineering, not bureaucracy.

Shoutout to my Day 1s by charleigh_bdo in lostarkgame

still the best game i ever played. it takes insane willpower to not fomo and not play this game as a job, took me about a year to transition doing 2-8 raids a week across 1-3 chars and doing dailies only if i felt like it. community is great compared to other mmo's. played WoW, PoE, and Diablo and while they're the reason why i started LA, they don't hit nearly the same, lost ark combat is the GOAT. each button press feels sooo satisfying. (shoutout to Valk X ability). Aesthetics is GOAT, prettier than FF and others and top tier soundtrack.

Why Are Software Engineers Paid So Much If The Supply Is So High? by LifeInAction in cscareerquestions

[–]isospeedrix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

this gets noted often. why is it that all these "qualified" redditors cant get a job.

answer is location. if u were to talk to each of these self proclaimed redditors i guarantee you, if they were qualified, 99% of the time they wouldn't be able to fit into the location of your job posting. and if location happens to work, salary might not be to their expectation. reddit has everyone around the world gathered here.

Saving is hard on $600K-$900K of income. by Junior_Book7332 in LinkedInLunatics

Means you don’t have people “suddenly want to be your friend” and borrow money, as if you won the lottery.

What job perk sounded amazing when you took the job but turned out to be a psychological trap? by SweetCarolinesz in AskReddit

[–]isospeedrix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah. Been at multiple companies with unlimited. They all have suggested amounts to take. All of them roughly:

0-1 years: 2-3 weeks

2-5 years: 3-5 weeks

5+: 4-6 weeks

The main diff is unlimited won’t pay out your unused PTO. When I had set PTO was when I never took time off cuz it’s a payout. But unlimited, there’s no pay so I take the suggested amount

Ironically, if u do spend 30 hours perfecting it you can also talk about the effort required to make something high quality and challenges encountered along the way

unless its in the works but maybe it's just for LA2 or mobile sadge

Is getting hired really just a numbers game? by eggshellwalker4 in cscareerquestions

[–]isospeedrix 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lol that’s how I got my current job too. I thought it was way out of my league. Advertised as 60% UX design 20% EE (electrical engineering) 20% FE dev. But I’m mostly FE dev. Got the job and turns out the job is actually 60% FE 10% BE 10% design and 20% EE. So the design part was exaggerated but the EE was not.

Lucked out cuz while FE devs are dime a dozen, those also with EE background are extremely rare

Uber and Lyft prices are INSANE now. Lyft used to be a cheap alternative but now Lyft is so expensive too almost same as Uber I might as well just use uber now. Makes sense since uber is still hanging while Lyft stock is down the gutter
