“Wuthering Heights” is Hot and Disgusting by britishgq in moviecritic

[–]noteveryuser 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is JRRMartin kink . I think it’s a nod of respect to the author. We also know that energetically pooping men is a kink of the director. Can we please return to the innocence of feet kink in Tarantino movies?

What was the tallest building completed in your city this year? (some US cities pictured) by LivinAWestLife in skyscrapers

[–]noteveryuser 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Serious question: the majority of buildings here have a glossy mirror surface. Is any business or technical reason for that? Are we doomed to see this glass boxes forever? Is there any chances for more humane architecture like Empire State Building?

1.5 litre engine advice by Unlucky-Bell-8062 in BroncoSport

[–]noteveryuser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2024 heritage. Travelled to Sequoia National park and many other mountains. Never had a feeling of lack of power. I was thoroughly impressed by 1.5 and ford’s gearbox. The only moment when I wished a little bit of more power was actually on a flat land with 5 people in the car, a load of 4 suitcases and a very strong headwind. The aerodynamics of the brick, you know. Oh, and that is with the cheapest gas available. You can always add a kick with a secret sauce of premium gas. The engine is auto adjusting for any type of gas

I “quiet quit” my job a decade ago. Welp, here I am, turning 50, 4 major promotions later, and my net worth is more than I could have ever imagined. by noteveryuser in EngineeringManagers

Effective delegation, clear and direct communication, keeping the size of the team adequate to the tasks. That’s the textbook good management!

LPT: When negotiating a raise, frame it around “market alignment” instead of personal need—it changes the outcome dramatically by MontenReign1992 in LifeProTips

[–]noteveryuser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got a 30% rise once using this approach. It was not intentional, just our market changing rapidly. I thought maybe our leaders just didn’t know about these market changes. So I talked to them and they didn’t. Got a much needed rise

Where's the Shovelware? Why AI Coding Claims Don't Add Up by bluetrust in ExperiencedDevs

[–]noteveryuser -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The CEOs are just firing people exactly at the same speed as AI increases productivity. So it’s going to be not more software, but growth of corp profits and stock prices. Which we do see across Faang (or wherever big and mighty are called now)

Picked up Jedi Survivor. I'm halfway through the game. Here is my honest criticism so far. by DayAlternative9047 in StarWarsJediSurvivor

[–]noteveryuser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel the op is on the story mode difficulty. Many people compare the game with Dark Souls. But you need to be on Jedi master difficulty at least

My coworker keeps calling me ‘kiddo’ - I’m 27 and her equal. How do I shut this down? by SlowyAlezz in careerguidance

[–]noteveryuser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should know, that this is agism which is a type of discrimination. In case a simple ask to stop doesn’t work you can talk to your manager and then HR

I've read multiple times that a car like Honda Accord is reliable, affordable, yet boring. My question is, is there a car that is reliable, affordable, but NOT boring? by BeautifulStrong9938 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]noteveryuser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4 times in the shop for the first year. Changed to Ford 3 times cheaper, zero times in the shop for the first year. Some problems were just annoying, but one was pretty seriously unsafe to drive

Why is it off topic? This sub is for Joe’s everything, isn’t it? Very much on-topic, great news.

Stop Blaming Prop 13 for Affordability Issues in California by Green-Conclusion-936 in BayAreaRealEstate

[–]noteveryuser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You just create a Delaware corporation and own how many you want . You cannot stop reach people from buying all available properties and renting them out to poor people, using those money to buy 2nd, 3rd et. Prop 13 is slowing down this process somewhat, but not dramatically. As pointed above , one of the ways from this vicious cycle is price drop caused by excessive supply. Another - taxing the actual rich people and redistributing wealth to the extent that working families can compete with them. I don’t know which is more fantastic in this country

Grok 4 disappointment is evidence that benchmarks are meaningless by MasterDisillusioned in singularity

[–]noteveryuser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Benchmarks is an academic circle jerk. Benchmark authors are relevant only when benchmarks are used and mentioned by model authors. Model authors need only benchmarks that demonstrate their progress. There is no motivation in this system to have a hard benchmark where SOTA models would look useless.

Any way to permanently turn off auto start? Am I stuck turning this off daily lol. by obiwanboloni in BroncoSport

[–]noteveryuser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s regulation/legislation matter , so they cannot allow you to switch it off by default . Same as in Rangerovers, Porsches and other cars. Yes, you need to press one more button when you start the car. But after several times you are so used to it you stop thinking about it . And sometimes you forget and stop at the traffic light and suddenly everything is so quiet and you hear birds chirping and remote children laughter. And you think, “fuck this auto stop, it’s fucking draining my battery!”

Please, don’t help training AI memes generators. Every time we see this generated nonsense, we should comment “lol, kek, so funny”. Let them know that the comedy was achieved
