And the current president violating the constitution isn’t? I’d say sending the military to cities you don’t like is setting a bad precedent.

- Comment on Doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results is not the definition of insanity. It's the definition of practice. 3 weeks ago:
I mean how much do you want to generalize? Practicing now means doing the same thing over and over, ignoring the adjustments you make? Ignoring the fact that someone who never practiced vs a 10 year practiced will sound different, but she did the same thing for 10 years, it should sound the same if nothing changed.

I teach MMA. I specialize in BJJ. When I’m showing someone a technique, I show them the proper way. They then do the move, and most times they get 90% of it right but have to keep working on that last %10. If they just practice that over and over at %90 it’ll never be good. They need someone there correcting it, until they perfect it. Once you perfect it, you expect the same outcome over and over from the same thing. That is muscle memory.
- Comment on Americans have 400 days to save their democracy 5 weeks ago:
America is the monolith.
This is someone who knows nothing about America. You either don’t know what a monolith is or you’re just grossly misinformed. You seem to think the entire population just agrees with everything the country does and you hold the people accountable for everything bad the county does.
but I ask what people outside the US are supposed to do while we wait for the bombs?
If you’re so scared and are demanding so much there is plenty action you could take. You could volunteer, you could donate, you could do things if you are actually that worried. But you won’t. You just want to complain online, which ironically is what a lot of America is doing.
Again, I’m sorry. I don’t want to be mean to people or stereotype either but I really don’t think Americans on either side understand how fucking scared we are,
How the fuck do you think we feel? Everyone is yelling at us to fight and where people fight they are disappeared. You’re afraid the US military might come after you? They’re already after us and all everyone is doing is telling us to fight the military they are scared might come for them while doing fuck all.
Either help or move on, whatever this is you’re trying to do, isn’t helping anything.

You spent a whole lot of time saying “this shows how dumb men message smart women.” Yeah, that isn’t a surprise and dick pics being sent out received isn’t limited by type of person. Context doesn’t matter.
You’re entire second paragraph is hot air that doesn’t speak to the point raised.
Then someone calls that out and you talk down to and insult them.
Such unearned confidence with such ignorance on display isn’t shocking. Those go together a lot on Reddit, it’s just said to see.

Yeah, this seems like an excuse to brag more than anything. Men are gross, but all the extra made me think that dick picks weren’t the point of this post.

It’s possible it’s not an excuse. I’m in software eng. Doodles and on the fly flow charts are made all the time. It’s much easier to follow a complex topic if you have something to point to. Especially when trying to tie together concepts, like interplay between services, timing, DB, APIs, etc.

… Changing outfits in BL has often, for a long time, in most costumes, just been color changes. Not real customizing.

Yeah, not just being diffent colors of the same hero was a really nice change.

That’s a fair call on Tiny Tina, but with it and the movie kinda tarnishing the name it seems like a bit of an uphill battle.
3 did well, but the game before and after it didn’t. Add in people having less money to throw at this stuff and it being “a real fans” price, possible exclusive deals, etc. I just think it’s putting up it’s own road blocks constantly. The franchise isn’t hot and it’s fresh off the Borderlands movie joke.
IMO They should fire this wide and fast, keep the price low and sell it everywhere, earn back that trust and good will. Make people fall in love with BL again.

I’m not sad anymore but due to a branding deal I always crave a fresh bag of Lays chips. That crispy fresh flavor with just the right amount of seasoning hits the spot every time. Lays, betcha can’t eat just one. Anyways, at least I cry less now. You wanna get some Lays?

I think their active work against unions is the big one for me.
2022 NLRB complaints accuse Nintendo of America (and staffing partner Aston Carter) of firing testers after union questions, coercing workers, and treating long-term contractors as second-class citizens. Multiple former employees confirmed low pay, isolation from benefits, and retaliation fears.

- Comment on AI boomer trait 4 months ago:
I work in tech and I don’t like what AI is turning into or how it’s being used. But saying it’s only getting worse is just wrong. Many hurdles in generation, comprehension have been overcome. Context windows are growing in orders of magnitude. Cycles with different logical approaches can be applied to the same prompt. I mean just topically you can look at the quality of deep fakes over the last 3 years.
We can hate it, but let’s not let that blind us to reality.

Having been in the Marines you get oddly used to the “No Marines allowed” signs outside of base. It gets to the point where Marines would use clip on jewelry to try to fool places into letting them in.

- To be good at your job and do well. Especially in tech where things can evolve quickly. Or just learn your job once and get left behind.
- I like growing my skill because I like that I do and being better at it I can demand more money. I do this outside of my employer because I want to grow.
- To be better at what you do, learn ways to avoid struggles you run into to make your life easier, be able to demand more money by knowing skills or tools others don’t. I mean a ton of reasons.
My commenting and posting workflow aren’t things that can help me buy a house. Knowing emerging technologies that command a higher salary can. I literally learned the skills of my career on my own, online. I read books, I learned how to use tools, I grew. Now I make more money because of that. I wasn’t sitting around waiting for for employer to pay for and make me get better at something. I don’t get how this is such a hard thing to comprehend.
- Comment on Southport attack survivor calls for kitchen knives to be blunt tipped 5 months ago:
I can are we forgetting about the rest of the blade? This is like putting foam on your bumper in case you hit someone. It’s performative and does nothing in reality. Like you said, if they want to kill someone a blunt tip won’t stop them, they literally have the rest of the knife.
