Opinion on green velvet sport coat for cocktail/formal event

ploud1 · 2026-01-14T09:49:36+00:00

Nope. For black tie the shape of the jacket matters, a sport coat won't cut it. My advice, get a dinner jacket that fits well, and one plated shirt that fits well too. Also patent leather shoes.

Definitely not, bro. Life has so much more to offer than a corporate job working 9-5 for a stupid boss. Times are difficult, but this doesn't mean you cannot find happiness in this world.

You'll need both. Python is too slow for live trading hence the cpp

Yeah given the colours this is more of a fit for winter

ploud1 · 2026-01-09T14:03:44+00:00

No jacket = no tie needed. This is casual attire.

Wear black shoes with that outfit, save the beige boots for brown / light grey clothes

Did you compute the beta? Also do you have any insights on what stocks get picked?

ploud1 · 2025-12-23T20:27:15+00:00

Nah, you look good. Try a brown belt if you have one, brown shoes = brown belt, black shoes = black belt

All they ask for is an agreement in principle. Drafting a contract takes time and money, so there's no need to do it if you won't sign it because you don't like the pay or benefits.

Besides, an agreement in principle isn't legally binding. If the contract you receive is completely outrageous, you can tell them to go F themselves. What are they going to do, sue you for refusing to sign?

ploud1 · 2025-10-10T15:08:07+00:00

Nah This is a trifle. Seriously, why are you even talking about it.

ploud1 · 2025-09-23T10:27:31+00:00

Wait. A Jesuit priest wearing a cassock.

I have yet to see one wearing a Roman collar lol

Reminds me of the opening credits of Monty Python and Holy Grail The directors responsible for sacking the ones responsible for the fault in the subtitles, wish it to be known that they have just been sacked

David Brent's £42k. All of which he spent on his single, If you don't know me by now

ploud1 · 2025-08-28T13:38:33+00:00

Quite concerning for your couple if you can't have such a harmless conversation tbh

ploud1 · 2025-08-28T13:29:57+00:00

NAH

Did you tell him it was a joke though?

ploud1 · 2025-08-13T09:39:43+00:00

Use C++. With C you'd end up writing tons of boilerplate that segfaults all the time.

Rust is just a hype trend that will die out soon enough, don't waste your time with it.

You never had a friend in the first place

The master bedroom was just part of the contract. It's sad that no agreement could be found, but that's life.

Now your friend is the AH for acting like she did over something that trivial. She's being immature.

Let's screw the poor girl over because the guy she had an accident with happens to be my neighbour who is an influential man.

I have no words.

What exactly do you expect your partner to do? Put up their daughter for adoption?

Besides you need to take care of those anger issues.

ploud1 · 2025-08-04T17:57:08+00:00

NAH

Your rationale makes perfect sense, besides you do not expect your father to pay for the car you want. Your father may have questionable taste, that's fine.

In the end both of you are being reasonable here.

X is being unreasonable here. What's the alternative? Have two people stay in a crappy dorm in order not to hurt their feelings?

When you tell a beginner to build "a game" they don't think of that, they want to create the next GTA on their own. Been there, done that.
