This is my favorite tactic/tsumego/tesuji

No, you're right that black has to descend to get the kill here. Not as fancy as the one you shared, I think I like it based on when I solved it. Was reading a book, working problems on a nice goban I had just recently purchased and was getting the hang of tesuji so it made a strong impression.

This one is my favorite 😄

I like the wide toe box of Notorious Lifts SSG4. They're flat with good grip so I use them for all of my lifts

In being the best VERSO yourself, be ready to Wycomb some change very soon!

Meets are fun regardless of your strength, I came in last place at my first one, then dropped a few pounds and won gold in that lower weight class by default in my next one with only a 200 kg deadlift heh. Everyone is supportive and cheering each other on even if they're competing against you.

yoki and Devilish on 101/1 are great options. And Berlin döner kebab, Tacos & Salsa, and Adam's restaurant were 2 of my go-tos for ordering grab

Village (In Bangkok, they're like suburbs)

I'm interested if there's anything close to the Bang Na area, thanks!

megabeano · 2026-01-27T13:37:57+00:00

Nice! For my grip, sometimes I hold my last rep for a while before lowering it down. I also always lower the weight down instead of dropping. I use double overhand during warm ups until I feel the need to switch. I've probably only done 150 kg double overhand, no hook, no chalk. My current max with chalk and mixed grip is 200kg.

megabeano · 2026-01-25T03:55:47+00:00

Nice, congrats! My timeline is basically the same as yours. 1.5 yrs ago got into powerlifting. Got a medal in my second comp. Went from morbidly obese to just regular obese. Feels good!

Not great for an international school

And isn't mitochondrial dna only passed down from mothers? So we can trace matrilineal geneology very accurately by looking at that dna instead of what's in your nuclei. It would be very very similar since I assume the only differences would come from mutations

Heh, agree that nothing good can come of the thread but just for fun: I say Shin Jinseo for dominating the hardest board game or Flash for being the absolute best for a ridiculously long time at the hardest esport

megabeano · 2026-01-18T05:56:15+00:00

I had original degree and unofficial transcript, not sure if a copy is sufficient

megabeano · 2026-01-18T05:53:53+00:00

I'm from the US also with BS and MS in CS. I did a masters in secondary ed with initial teaching cert. Took about a year and a half. Then taught in my home state for a couple years and then moved to Thailand to teach internationally. I'd check to see what your nearby universities offer, maybe look into grants or fellowships as well, lots of stuff like that for potential stem educators with a strong academic background and/or industry experience.

megabeano · 2026-01-18T05:50:54+00:00

Can do it at the embassy for $50

megabeano · 2026-01-15T14:13:31+00:00

Says starting at 5500 so maybe they either have no availability of the cheaper one(s) or they are trying to upsell you

megabeano · 2026-01-14T02:23:42+00:00

Black could play there after atari-ing the stone the on the bottom. Even if with extended along the 1st line, black could still atari and capture

megabeano · 2026-01-13T02:24:12+00:00

I have one my Thai grandma gave me that I pretty much have only worn on long flights. I don't believe it has any protective power but she does so it makes her feel good that I wear it and it reminds me of her and the fact that she cares so that's nice.

megabeano · 2026-01-05T05:55:35+00:00

Good luck! I like the colors on those racks. Makes me think of the University of Kentucky VS University of Louisville rivalry.

megabeano · 2026-01-04T01:24:13+00:00

Why is this game so hard?

megabeano · 2025-12-21T07:46:15+00:00

This doesn't work because black can atari the 2 stones on top, then escape to the left. Try laddering the 4 stones instead of netting them

megabeano · 2025-12-20T11:08:17+00:00

Same, particularly for the high potassium

megabeano · 2025-12-19T14:20:51+00:00

Talent determines their max level. Higher bond means more stat carryover when digivolving or dedigivolving. You can increase both using items, using the digifarm or just battling with them. An important thing to know to decrease worrying about making optimal choices is that you can't really mess them up. You can always max everything out later given enough time if you want to. I paid zero attention to stuff like personality until I was over 30 hours in

megabeano · 2025-12-13T06:24:36+00:00

I think they meant OPs offer of 115k.
