I see it as a sort of “I’m so rich I get to fight a living legend” instead of an actual contest. This is a sham.

I see OP in their comment history uses “tyres” so they’re probably not from the US.

C-Walking has been a prominent fad in the US, more so in the early 2000s than recently, but most people are familiar with it.

I don’t understand the context of this post, but there’s not much here of note if you grew up in the US and made it past late teenager.

At this point, Snoop is inevitable.

Now make it so you have to beat e1m1 for the alarm to turn off.

It’s bullshit all the way down.

Lol uh I mean I don’t think the author* is giving the generally normal people just working their job enough credit. In my anecdotal experience, the growth mindset stuff is just an excuse to say certain things at meetings, or make certain decisions, nobody is extremely bought in or anything.

In fact, I knew some folks that left Microsoft because of the growth mindset changes for more “old school” places like Boeing.

Generally speaking I think all these companies have some kind of cultish exterior, I can say this about Google, Apple, Amazon and Facebook for sure. If you’re ever let inside the walls though, it’s mostly regular people trying to live their lives.

You’re right, because a lot of it was “game not horny” and I don’t have time for incel garbage

This dude used to point out legit game quality issues, but I’m not sold on “the game isn’t horny anymore”. I dont really give a shit about that.

That and the RE4 remaster was genuinely good. Starting to feel like an edge lord.

Nvidia does the same shit for GPU drivers, it’s obnoxious

I’m pretty fucking sure it doesn’t work like that outside of your black and white interpretation.

I’m not saying it doesn’t happen, I’m saying a lot of people find themselves in that (bad) situation either outside their control, or they can be manipulated, coerced, pressured, or hell use your imagination.

To be clear, it’s definitely not always “oh so-and-so was so obsessed with climbing the ladder that they became the bosses bitch, Oooo.” Thats a kindergarden take and, IMO, helps empower people at the top hoarding all the wealth.

I’m gonna assume you don’t know any better. Not saying there aren’t bad or stupid middle managers, but usually the middle manager is the person who got shoved into a “management” position they probably didn’t want, and all they really get to do is take all the heat when decisions they didn’t make blow up in their face. It also usually comes with false promises of raises but upper management never really intends on giving it.

It’s like, top level squeezing the bottom out 101.

And Apple will finally sell the iPhone starting with 256GB

Yet another example of companies making irresponsible anti consumer choices. You should have to pay the piper if you want to start dancing to this tune. That or you should be forced to open source your proprietary works.

That’s the right mindset.

For those reading, don’t let them fool you about down selling your worth. If you’ve got the skills they want, and you show that, they’ll pay you. Job history conversations are just a way to try and leverage lower pay or benefits on you.

There’s not enough context here to have a strong opinion, but I’ll add that personally, nothing has given me a bigger raise than getting a job at another company.

I understand your take and mostly agree with you. I just want to emphasize I’m not trying to call anyone a dummy or anything, just that it’s OK to like what you like.

If companies aren’t going to cater to you, yeah that’s annoying in most scenarios.

If you ordered a cookie and didn’t get what you want, that sucks and is indeed frustrating.

However I don’t know what that has to do with anyone else. If someone wants to eat an almost raw cookie, or a too soft cookie or whatever, I don’t think that should bother you.

Big incel energy.

Oh shit, what would I do without… Scout Analysis?

Androids best advantage used to be full control of the device… Those were the days. Then it started with saying they know better than you, then locking you out. Now I’m waiting on a new, better solution.

Honestly it’s not like native Linux is too far fetched, but there would have to be a big open source common ground device collaboration.

I definitely prefer not paying $700 for an incremental upgrade.
