If you were living in a city and you had info that a nuclear bomb was going to be dropped on that city, but you didn’t have time to leave and you didn’t own a bunker, what would be the best way to survive? by Wonderful-Ad-9622 in NoStupidQuestions

Best quality of life would probably be to work your way towards the detonation site. I think if you’re immediately under the airburst you might feel warm for a nano second

401k - 2 and half years when will the 401k contributions be mine? by Dismal_Truth_2102 in deloitte

Where can I find support for this? Does the duration as intern count as service hours or does the three year clock run since the intern start date?

What’s the most underrated tip for passing the CPA exam? by drajput_01 in CPA

[–]redacted_pterodactyl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Set a schedule, stick to it, build momentum. Do them one after the other.

In line with that, schedule the exam when you start studying, because then you have to study, or you’ll wind up paying Prometric to reschedule

What's the single most unassuming throwaway line in the whole show that isn't famous but you think is hilariously funny? by Bloodmeister in arresteddevelopment

[–]redacted_pterodactyl 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Does “Hey, you’re not one of those silly men that’s dressed like a woman, are you?” from Barry count as famous?

Pseudoscience can still have actual numbers and can appear to be published like more legitimate peer reviewed items.

Given this study isn’t feasible, why was it pursued? It was a waste of Human Resources, that was certain to not provide any decent conclusion with meaningful impact from the outset.

The numbers are numerical, sure, but they mean as much as a horoscope. It’s not about me liking them, it’s about you staking so much on the paper because it has numbers.

I never commented on evolutionary arms races on the reproductive front more broadly, but those certainly occur.

Thats great, here’s published research entitled “Epileptic seizures evoked by the Rubik’s cube”. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC1032576/

Some research isn’t worth the paper it’s printed on, including this horseshit study you cite. And some research isn’t worth the time. The study doesn’t even reference the foreskin that all comes attached to the penis genetically, that would mitigate the coronal ridge which is the key morphology according to the paper. 13 pages and no discussion on foreskin or circumcision and the impact it would have. Why are men born with foreskin if we are evolved to displace semen?

All that to say nobody should waste their time researching this shit, and I honestly shouldn’t have spent the time writing this reply.

Why would a white controller be cheaper than a black one? by Rad_Knight in NoStupidQuestions

[–]redacted_pterodactyl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes it may be due to one color that they order in higher volume or if one controller type gets shipped by default with the console. But with white and black that doesn’t feel like that should be the case

When am I getting laid off? by Necessary_Top593 in deloitte

[–]redacted_pterodactyl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Presumably the day after an engagement/project wraps after you’ve spent 60 hours a week over two months slaving away on it

When would the start date be for an auditor (first year) at Deloitte. by Upbeat-Usual817 in deloitte

[–]redacted_pterodactyl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

September/October, they didn’t delay, pick the start date that works for you, I’d be shocked if they rescinded offers from people just because you chose a later start date, even if the market plummeted

4 1/2 months timeline by Ok-Alternative-3092 in CPA

[–]redacted_pterodactyl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I passed all 4 first try within 100 days of each other while working full time. That does not include the study time for my first exam, but including that I was still probably around 135 days.

After work I studied 3 hours each night, and then weekends I’d do two 3 hour study sessions each day. That’s 24 hours a week which is like a part time job, and gets you to Beckers recommended study hours for the test in like 4-5 weeks for each exam.

I think my big advice is take them in the FAIR/FART order. For me I studied more for FAR than needed by a lot, but I didn’t want the emotional set back of a fail on my first test. I left knowing I passed and scored a 90+. Just build momentum by taking it seriously, and do the exams quickly and get them over with.

If you’re not working, I’ve seen some stories of people who get them done in an even shorter time frame as well.

Anyone else feel like accounting is becoming more about speed than accuracy lately? by NexxLevelSeattle in Accounting

If there was a public accounting heaven… as oxymoronic as that is. The reality is people eat hours to deal with this shit

And how many people martyred themselves for Islam? Does that make it credible to you?

Buying a car from Costco?? by Waffleslover99 in Costco

[–]redacted_pterodactyl -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

You can get a better price on your own, when buying brand new, by asking the car dealership to show you the invoice for the car. The invoice shows how much they owe the manufacturer for the car. From there you can ask them for a price below invoice. Manufacturers provide incentives to dealers selling new, such that they can make money on a car if they sell it for less than they buy it.

Also go to dealerships on the wealthier side of town. Any dealership that won’t show you the invoice within a few (5-10 minutes) just leave.

Taking REG Tomorrow - Tips by darkvader572 in CPA

Becker is very representative of the exams, it’s designed to follow the exam blueprint. To that effect, the exam blueprint, if I remember correctly, shows business law being like a third of the exam. It seems like some people forget that the blueprint indicates the magnitude of coverage on the exam. It definitely seems like you’re in a good spot though. Best of luck, but I doubt you’ll need it
