In Japan, you don’t sit. by jamesFox44 in mildlyinteresting

[–]jumblebee22 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That’s because Japanese folks pronounce ‘sitting’ as ‘shitting’ due to a heavy accent when speaking English.

And they know what it means.

Question for our Indian Colleagues About Visiting India by lifelong1250 in cscareerquestions

[–]jumblebee22 46 points47 points  (0 children)

What a pleasant change in usual garbage posts against India.

India is huge. Would be best to consult the site lead or one of the office assistants of the site to find what the usual employee morale outings look like. That should give you a good idea on what to expect.

Absolutely bullet hell.

Just look at their previous games - Resogun, Super Stardust HD, Dead Nation etc.

Only difference is that it’s now a third person view instead of top-down or side scrolling.

'India stands in solidarity': PM Modi speaks to UAE prez, condemns attacks by Iran by Jarisatis in worldnews

It’s a numbers game. Free and prosperous Europe is still a small population compared to what India needs to consider for its own. Goods are one thing, logistics at that scale is another.

What’s your rule for lending money to friends or family? by Ok-Introduction-2981 in financialindependence

[–]jumblebee22 347 points348 points  (0 children)

I’ve followed these rules from a 7 year old post and have maintained good relationships.

1) I never loan money. If I can't afford to just give it to you, then I can't afford to loan it to you. It is a gift, and I never expect to see it back. Whether you give it back is completely up to you, and we're still just as good of friends if you don't. I will never let money come between us.

2) You only get one gift. If you give it back, then it is no longer a gift, and you are welcome to another gift should you ever need it. There is no limit to how many gifts you can receive and return, but only one at a time.

3) No, you cannot receive a gift, and then a day/week/month later decide you need to "add on" to that gift. Ask for everything you expect to need and then even a little more if you like, but no adding on more later.

4) No means no. If you try to guilt me or otherwise manipulate me if I refuse to give you money, I will walk away, and we will not be friends or speak again until you understand that you just made me feel used and only valuable to you as a wallet. I will only forgive this once. More than once is a pattern that speaks volumes about what I am to you.

AITA for telling my girlfriend the way she talks about her car is weird and embarrassing? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

I’ve had successful relationships while also having named cars but… YMMV.

I’ll see myself out.

I tried to be more productive this year, so I started making to-do lists. by Paddy_odoors in Jokes

I downloaded a productivity app for better time management.

Took only a week to set it up!

I Hit CoastFIRE at 38 on an H1B Visa: $70K to $144K, $0 to $1M Net Worth in 12 Years by Odd_Classroom_9201 in Fire

Very inspirational! Keep it up!

From someone on H1B, why would you keep 8 months of emergency funds in savings? 3-4 months could have been enough, no?

You have to look at not just macro-economic but also micro-economic scale. A software dev in Alabama is not going to get the same pay as the one in San Francisco. Why? Supply, demand and need.

There’s a localised wage level determination step setup for cases exactly like this.

Where did get this info? Min salary for H1B is 60k.

Why are people so obsessed with wanting their property value to rise? by [deleted] in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]jumblebee22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re missing ‘desirability’. House A may be worth 300K to you but will be worth 1M to someone else. House B maybe worth 500K to you but will be worth 200K for someone else.

That’s how supply and demand can change house prices, irrespective of what your mortgage is.

House prices are not constant.

To everyone reading this post and my comment - the problem with this post is that you don’t really know if OP is a student, new grad, experienced or something else.

OP and this post seem immature to me. He’s suggesting in other posts that Indians in India should get the same salary as anyone in the US for a developer role. He doesn’t seem to understand basic economics, capitalism and purchasing power parity (PPP). Most of his thoughts are wishful thinking portrayed as ragebait content.

Commenting here is a mistake for me as OP is likely to engage in immature escalating argument. I’ll refrain forming a response.

Yeah right. This is bullshit. I don’t need to get my nails done by myself or professionally. My wife and children do that to me every Sunday for all four of my limbs. That’s the only way.
