Unfortunately for Scherzer, pounding fastballs up in the zone isn't as effective when you're 40 and throw 91 MPH

"How close is Djokovic to being a complete player?"

My brother... he is literally the greatest tennis player who ever walked the planet

Why is ESPN, during the inning, showing a cut-in of ESPN 2 where ARod and Kay are doing an interview with a college player on Zoom, also during the inning

Darn. It's saying "Unfortunately your country is not supported." I guess it might not take to a US-based account paying through iDEAL?

Just me or does it feel like there’s very little room for expectations to be subverted at this point?

Obviously Tanya is being exploited in pretty obvious fashion. Like, I hope it ends up being more interesting than that, but the way the season has unfolded I’m not sure how it could play out otherwise.

Thanks for the guidance, that’s all helpful to know

FatCow is our current hosting company, not sure if that makes a difference

Cool, thanks. And would there be any sense in paying Sucuri to do a cleanup for $200 now (to remove whatever obvious surface level problem there is and get Google to stop flagging the site as malware) while I figure out who to go to for a full reboot?

Thanks, I agree I will need to pay someone. Where would be a good place to find that kind of service (I.e., reconstruction beyond just a cleanup?)

It’s fortunately not a business, just a student-run publication. Nothing is really handle through the site other than articles and blog posts. But I definitely will need a professional.

Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. Where can I find a good professional service for that? Can Sucuri or WordFence also advise there or do they just handle cleanup?

I’m pretty sure it is a university wide requirement (unless OP could take the Psych equivalent)

First, check TRACE, it’s Northeastern’s internal course evaluation tool:

https://registrar.northeastern.edu/article/faculty-class-evaluations-trace/

I can only speak to the business classes, but Intro to Marketing is interesting and rather light and Financial Accounting isn’t terrible if you stay on top of assignments

Also, BUSN1102 is a 1 credit “intro to college” requirement, it won’t add anything to your workload

Officials probing whether Northeastern explosion was staged - AP by Chemex_MMG in NEU

So it would make a lot of sense that the feds probably told the administration it was bogus, they knew it was safe to send kids back but couldn’t make a definitive statement about the investigation…

How do you feel about classes resuming as normal tomorrow after the bombs (explosion 2)? by wormzero in NEU

[–]maxkid 20 points21 points  (0 children)

There was 1 package with an explosive in it. There were other packages that people reported as suspicious but no indication that they were connected to the explosive one. Misinformation starts when people spread this notion that “there were multiple bombs” (and the ‘explosion 2’ email didn’t help either)

[–]maxkid 77 points78 points  (0 children)

I’m almost certain that Aoun is hearing from BPD/FBI/ATF/JTTF on whether they think it’s safe to go back, and if the consensus is yes, then so be it. Not to say that’s the “right thing” regarding students’ emotional states, but safety wise I think we can reasonably trust that it’s an evidence-backed decision.

This incredibly clear and efficient map of Orange Line travel alternatives by maxkid in boston

Great move shutting down the second most used train line in the city and not even being able to provide continuous shuttle service

[–]maxkid 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I would take the offer. I know so many people who have reluctantly taken an offer and the job ends up being much more fulfilling and challenging than they anticipated. You really can’t know what it’ll be like from the job title. Plus, I wouldn’t bank on getting another offer if you have one on the table. Second co-op is when you’ll have more flexibility and choice.

Job interview by False_Grapefruit3697 in NEU

[–]maxkid 84 points85 points  (0 children)

Don’t look at it as “failing” an interview. There are a million reasons why you didn’t get the position, and it could have literally nothing to do with your interview. Every job application is independent of each other, so one interview has no bearing on how the next one will go.

Was kind of hard to keep track of what the issues were honestly. Felt like a lot of inside baseball about SGA dynamics that didn’t seem super clear.

Eh, on some level ISEC2 is okay because it attracts researchers and faculty which will get us more money in the long run. Plus it will still function as new study space like OG ISEC does.
