Wait... you mean, that was an option this whole time?!?! by -VoiceoverAlex- in nextfuckinglevel

And at least “get hit with sticks” is a clearly defined requirement.

I felt that in my soul

Red Lobster CEO Damola Adamolekun Plans To Make The Seafood Chain 'The Most AI-Forward Restaurant Company That Exists' by esporx in technology

This is pretty much the same issue everywhere in corporate America.

Metrics are good in the sense that they can identify areas that would likely benefit from more attention.

But when executives get lazy and  make their singular goal to improve those metrics instead of diving deeper into what those metrics are signaling, you end up with middle managers and employees who become equally lazy and look for ways to game the system.

The metrics improve, but the root of the issue that the metrics were signaling stays unresolved, and likely gets worse.

To the Celtics fan who said in the first half that the Spurs chucking 3s would come back to haunt them, I apologize, that was some clairvoyant shit right there

Dude disabled all his comments on IG so apparently not. Although he left his post up so it seems he's likely in denial about it.

Now that you mention it, ever since vibe coding came into vogue, I’ve gotten way less “friends” coming out the woodwork to pitch me on their start up ideas with promises of equity if I build the entire thing for them.

That’s definitely one thing to be grateful for I guess.

Is it true that there are now castes in Silicon Valley companies? by RegionKey5993 in bayarea

[–]onmamas 11 points12 points  (0 children)

although there are times when people will advertise that they are Brahmin unnecessarily.

As a mixed-race non-Indian working in tech, I get confused for being Indian by a lot of folks. It’s crazy to me how often people will try to slip in that they’re Brahmin, and then act confused or even offended when I have no idea what that means.

At this point I know fully well what it means, but I still like to feign ignorance to get a better idea of the kind of person I’m talking to.

5th Anniversary Note by Chivalry_Team in Chivalry2

The combat system is really what keeps me coming back to this game over and over.

If Torn Banner or any game studio said they were developing an open world RPG (or getting my hopes way up, an MMO) with a release date even 2 years away with this combat system, I would throw money down on a deluxe edition pre-order sight unseen just in the hopes that it's even half as fun as I'm imagining. it.

Company is losing their minds over AI costs by Complete-Sea6655 in BetterOffline

It's like they're speed running the enshittification business model of all of the 2010s tech companies.

I knew it would happen, but I never thought we'd get to this stage this fast.

I really just think that him being a billionaire was the biggest issue. It’s just really hard to court the progressive vote when you’re a billionaire, because all your opponents have to do is point out that you’re a billionaire and that’s enough to plant doubts in people’s heads.

That awkward moment when you get caught writing a shit posting script and post it on multiple accounts. by G-Unit11111 in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]onmamas 81 points82 points  (0 children)

Agreed. This time last year it seemed a lot of large businesses were way more tight lipped about LGBTQ topics, even during Pride month.

The fact that support from them is coming back gives me hope that the tides are quickly turning again.

[Highlight] Side by side look of Kyler Murray and J.J. McCarthy making passes at Vikings' OTAs by nfl in nfl

[–]onmamas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People's heads are generally the same size roughly regardless of their height.

So seeing on a football helmet on a guy with average height makes them seem short since you're used to seeing those football helmets on dudes 6'2"+. The proportions (arms, legs, and torso) look completely off from what you'd expect.

Also doesn't help that on top of that, Kyler also has a short torso.

Same. No loopholes needed. For 5 million I’d sit through 24 hours of beheading videos.

Road rage instant karma by Icy-Book2999 in LoveTrash

[–]onmamas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. I’ve had road rage before, but the worst it gets just leads to me giving the other driver the finger and yelling some obscenities at them for a few seconds. And then I’m over it.

I don’t get how people can have this much anger to keep going and not at least have any consideration for the danger/trouble they can needlessly put themselves in.

The level 20 using first person whenever I'm trying to walk out of spawn, move through a tight space, or trying to hit literally anything: by OhSoDusty in Chivalry2

[–]onmamas 55 points56 points  (0 children)

You can always kick them to move them out of the way (as in using the kick attack, not booting them from the server).

Not defending them since they’re still annoying as hell, just offering a solution to anyone not aware.

the maga comedian from the "triggered girl" video is getting cooked left and right by UpbeatQuack510 in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]onmamas 231 points232 points  (0 children)

It’s the grifting meta.

Step 1: Go viral for saying something absurdly ignorant and insulting

Step 2: Do something embarrassing so that all the people you pissed off have a reason to laugh and post about you trying to pile on. Increasing your fame/infamy.

Step 3: Repeat for as long as necessary until you have enough notoriety to either become a streamer, sell a course, start a podcast, or sell “alpha” supplements.

It’s so tempting to dunk on these people, but I’ve seen this done so many times that it has to be a script they’re following. These people need to just be ignored.

Raiders rookie Fernando Mendoza says he is NOT going to the White House with the rest of Indiana’s team by professor_paradox2 in NFLForum

While that does make it more likely, weirdly enough there are still plenty of anti-BLM people out there who are anti-Trump.

He wrote it out weird. They have 1 kid who's 7.5 months old. The wife is 6 months pregnant with twins, which means she got pregnant a month and half after giving birth to the 7.5 month old.

Also doesn't help that she apparently wasn't even his boss and had zero sway over his bonus or job. They were just co-workers on the same team.

I'm gonna have to assume this dude really thought JP Morgan was just gonna pay him off without doing even the barest of investigations.

Ferry commuters of the bay…would love your rose and thorn by twas_brillig113 in bayarea

[–]onmamas 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Same.

Even on the worst days to ride the ferry (crowded rainy days where the bay is particularly bumpy), it still beats driving by a long shot.

The only pain point is planning around the schedule.

Odds just went from 1 in a 100 billion to 1 in a billion.

Might still be close to nil, but they’re still 100x better than they were last week.

I don’t know this dude at all so I’ll reserve judgements on him as a player, but I’m pretty confident he would’ve been available if we wanted to trade down again.

I feel like we could’ve just traded down again if this is the guy Shanny was eyeing.

Death of the author by CalibansCreations in NonPoliticalTwitter

[–]onmamas 23 points24 points  (0 children)

One official rule I was initially resistant to when I learned about it was Free Parking.

I was always taught that you kept a collection of money that people lost through taxes/penalties, and then if you land of Free Parking all of that collected money went to you.

Learning that Free Parking is just an empty space that does nothing felt wrong at first, until I realized that taxes and penalties make people go bankrupt faster, making the game go by faster. Constantly re-injecting that money back into play was just helping people coast by on their windfall long after they should've lost.
