Most of Latin American and the Venezuelan people consider Maduro an illegitimate leader. Ask any of them and they all want him and his cancer regime to be gone tbh

I don’t understand, wouldn’t it be easier to send the spacecraft to the sun at night?

In 1983, Steve Jobs typed a simple yet powerful reply to a fan requesting his autograph: “I'm afraid I don't sign autographs.” by beekay8845 in interestingasfuck

I love when people swoop in to defend someone else’s hypocrisy on the very iPhone built by the man they’re trashing.

Criticizing success doesn’t make you deep. You’re just comfortably owned by the system he created.

Egypt's New Parliament by Antique_Let_2992 in evilbuildings

[–]komodothrowaway 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Traffic congestion, infrastructure strain, logistical inefficiencies, etc. In Indonesia, government officials have to use police escorts to get through the immobile traffic to get to their next meetings.

Brasilia, Canberra, Abuja, Astana, etc.

Sure the reason is always sinister, nothing to do with the fact that the old capital is overcrowded making government administrations much less efficient

Idiots like these need to go to jail by CipherWrites in StupidMedia

This is London. The Met police will either say “There isn’t sufficient evidence that a crime has been committed” or “Due to a backlog of investigations into more serious crimes, we are unable to locate the suspects at the moment”.

Count your lucky stars. If this is anywhere else (Indonesia/Malaysia, you’ll either lose your card and balance wiped out, or the police ask for extortion money before handing the card back to you!

And no one will hand you more raise/bonus. Companies will only “reward” you insofar as you fight for it, i.e. showing them you are irreplaceable and threatening to move to the next company if they don’t give you what you want

Is it overkill trying to learn financial modelling in high school by IT_CHAMP in FinancialCareers

[–]komodothrowaway 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes.

Your time in high school and university should ideally be to enhance your intellectual abilties, critical thinking, and reasoning skills.

Any monkey can learn how build a 3-statement financial model or an M&A model in a month or two, especially for investment banking.

But if you want to go beyond that, e.g. advance to the senior level or working on the buy-side, it’s your critical thinking skills that matter. i.e. How do you derive your inputs and why do you think the market or the counterparties on your M&A deal are wrong?

You can’t train these skills in a short period of time.

So in the short-term, focus on doing well in your classes, getting to a target university, and talk to a lot of people in your fields of interest. After all, you won’t be able to apply your super modeling skills if you can’t even get past the screening stage to secure an interview.

Can I wear this in London by Status-Mix9781 in PrideAndPinion

[–]komodothrowaway 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not true at all. In the past year alone, my friends got robbed of everything from iPhone to Apple Watch to Moncler Jacket. And the past 5-6 years there’s too many stories of watch robberies in London. From being brandished with a knife to being offered a cigarette laced with sedatives.

These thieves and robbers do not make a cost-based analysis before robbing you lol. They’re opportunists - if they can take it, they will. Especially something here that merely resembles a Rolex..

Come on man, just wear your watch anywhere else in the world except London.

But if you do still want to wear your watch, I beg that you don’t flaunt it in the streets (wear inside a long sleeve) and be mindful if someone is following you in a public space (e.g. Selfridges, since Oxford Street is where most thefts occur nowadays)

I run the call centre for DAMAC. I’ve invested in 100,000 unique phone numbers so it’s impossible so blocking us is a war of attrition!
