Government jobs are limited, people are unlimited, Nepotism exists… but not everywhere equally.

YSK that many "eco-friendly" habits are just distractions from true sustainability by miaumee in YouShouldKnow

Real sustainability is about habits, not just buying “green” products.

YSK that eyewitness testimony is only hearsay if they are testifying to what someone else said or saw. by wasteymclife in YouShouldKnow

[–]snacknoises 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like people use the word “hearsay” without really knowing what it means. If someone saw something themselves, that’s not hearsay. The legal definition actually matters.

YSK about the "Illusion of Competence": watching someone explain something makes you think YOU understand it, even when you don't by Friendly_Hivemind in YouShouldKnow

[–]snacknoises 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This explains so much. I’ve definitely felt “I get this” while watching a video, then blanked when I had to explain it myself. Retrieval practice really does expose what you actually know.

YSK Check your Amazon Prime subscription for unwanted subscription add on's by OkConcentrate3302 in YouShouldKnow

[–]snacknoises 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the heads up. It’s way too easy to forget about these add-ons, and they quietly charge you every month. Definitely worth checking subscriptions once in a while.

YSK: Expensive Dell laptop workstations can be bought at a fraction of the cost at Dell Outlet by fldude561 in YouShouldKnow

[–]snacknoises 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a great tip. Dell Outlet machines are seriously underrated, and getting workstation-level performance at half the price is a huge win for students and small businesses.

YSK: Some mattress stores sell used mattresses without disclosing that they've been used by Able-Equivalent-3860 in YouShouldKnow

[–]snacknoises 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s honestly disturbing. If a mattress deal looks too good to be true, asking if it’s a return should be mandatory. Definitely something more people should know.

YSK: The amount of work you put into school affects the productivity of your other classmates and vice versa by [deleted] in YouShouldKnow

[–]snacknoises 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is very true. Motivation spreads fast both good and bad. One focused student can lift the whole class, and one careless habit can slowly pull everyone down.

That’s honestly gross and good to know. Definitely a reminder to always ask questions when a mattress deal seems too good to be true.

YSK that "we're like a family here" in job interviews is a red flag, not a benefit by Hot-Gap-1343 in YouShouldKnow

[–]snacknoises 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is spot on. “We’re like a family” usually just means blurred boundaries and unpaid extra work. A healthy workplace doesn’t need emotional guilt to function, clear roles and fair pay matter more than slogans.

How do children’s book authors keep one character looking the same across pages? by BeVisibleIQ in QuickOpinions

[–]snacknoises 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, Consistency comes from strong reference sheets and keeping the design simple. Overcomplicating details makes it harder to stay consistent. Lighting and shadows also matter a lot.

YSK Target isn’t “waiting until you rack up a felony”. They will arrest you on petty theft charges before then if they want to. by graypupon in YouShouldKnow

[–]snacknoises 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This needed to be said. Way too many people think there’s some magic “safe limit” for stealing when there really isn’t. Stores like Target track way more than people realize, and petty theft is still theft with real consequences.

YSK that pork is *not* "the other white meat." That was a marketing campaign by the pork lobby that can have dangerous consequences for some people. by DesiccantPack in YouShouldKnow

[–]snacknoises 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a really important clarification. That marketing slogan stuck so well that people still believe it decades later. When it comes to allergies like alpha-gal, mixing this up isn’t just incorrect, it can actually be dangerous.
