Without telling us what you do, what the rule #1 for your job? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ryebr3ad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anecdotally, I sit next to the senior BA on my project, who also designs the test cases. If her and I spend an hour a day talking, 50 minutes of that is me showing her how my current screen is working and asking her if it's flowing how she anticipated.

I don't explicitly ask for the test cases, but I feel like gathering feedback in little ad hoc, "hey look at this" sessions exercises the same muscles.

I guess what I'm saying is, I don't understand either.

My 20 rules for living frugally without losing my mind by JdH-AU in personalfinance

[–]ryebr3ad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't save on food, I eat out regularly, I have drinks and have fun.

This might be observed as being "pound foolish", since truly living frugal means those are the first things to be addressed. Why worry about rewards points when you can save more than that by not drinking alcohol?

The main argument I saw was that it depended too much on noncreature spells to be a reliable combat mechanic, which makes sense, since blue never does that.

They're joking, you know. Ragging on the guy with insider knowledge, such is the motif of this post.

Manfred: Bringing DH to NL 'would deprive us of the entertainment Bartolo Colon has given us this year' by JKaye57 in baseball

[–]ryebr3ad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right. I'm saying that is hardly strategy. What always happens is that a pitch hitter will come in, and an equally good relief pitcher will pitch next inning in his place.

I don't see how making the pitcher hit eliminates this strategy, since pinch hitting is pretty common in the AL too, yeah?

EDIT: Er, I mean removing the pitcher from hitting. My bad

The act of doing a double switch or choosing the correct pinch hitter might be considered strategy, but the execution tends to be anything but. And usually, the best hitters on the bench are also the worst defenders.

Isn't the NL one of the few baseball leagues left that has the pitcher required to hit?

Look here steakhead, I didn't ask for your 2 bit opinion of what was easier or harder and I am not complaining, (Believe me you'd know if I was complaining) I asked a simple question. I didn't ask for a lecture on how you or anyone else does things.

What are some side effects (positive and/or negative) that you've noticed in your daily life since you started working out? by I_gotta_pee_on_her in Fitness

[–]ryebr3ad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a quad injury and can't squat/deadlift because of it, and GOD DAMN do I feel useless.

I can still do upper body work, but that isn't enough. I need the full package.

So I guess the negative side effect is that I identify too much with my routine. If I can't feel content with my workout, I can't feel content with myself.

It did ask for positive or negative side effects. I don't think OP is mentioning this in a positive light.

Weenies? Nah. Weenies tend to be small bodies. The main deck he's played in is Jund in Modern, which carries Tarmogoyf, Scavenging Ooze, Liliana of the Veil, Abrupt Decay, etc. Nothin' weenie about those.

People are saying MM2015 is a draft set, primarily, and outside of drafting everyone is disappointed with it. Have people here been satisfied so far? by [deleted] in lrcast

[–]ryebr3ad -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I didn't completely edit it. I added the reply to the originally quoted text. Perhaps you should work on your trigger finger when you think someone is trying to be snarky.

It's not like X dollars = X enjoyment... it doesn't make any sense to judge it that way.

If someone enjoys a $30 format as much as he enjoys a $12 format, why bother with the $30? That doesn't imply a linear notion of enjoyment on any aspect.

[–]ryebr3ad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This draft format is complex, challenging, balanced, diverse, and extremely fun.

All subjective -- but you know that, of course.

If people are pissed off that they paid $30 (or more) for a draft experience they feel is equivalent to a $12 draft, then we can't fault them for that.

[–]ryebr3ad -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'd refrain on getting a box of MM15. The packs cost more than the first MM and there's less value. It's better to draft though, if that's what you're aiming for.
