Must say I am getting really tired of the world's entertainment all originating from the Capital of Wokeness.

I got the mammoth from there randomly during like the first week of Wrath and only did it a handful of times after that.

I really really really hated Trial of the Crusader. The entire premise of that shit rustled me. DERP lets build a tournament grounds within eyesight of the Icecrown citadel. Here we will do jousting and other retard shit for faction and points. This came in after Ulduar and was a hard gear...

Hard gear resets per patch weren't really a thing until WOTLK around Ulduar IIRC.

300 minimum.

Oh god. Blizcon becomes Dragon Furcon?

You must spend 1 year of timegated content researching how Dracythyr and Undead can copulate.

This honestly makes flying just sound annoying. Oh boy gotta just go over to this point that is conveniently far away from the flight master so I can do a stupid swan dive on little dragon buddy (tm) and use the Momentum(trademark) to glide where I want to go or as close to it as I can. Sure...

Get it in writing 100% of the time.

Teenage boy now middle aged men shitlords loved silly shit like sexy succubi slapping their asses and fart emotes. [some] Women don't which is why they get taken out.

Hey man ideas don't create themselves you know!

Need to grind your timegated dragon bucks so your little dragon buddy can increase his glide ratio by 1% a week. Oh wait that's way too fast. 0.3% a week is probably more like it. Need to milk out at least a year of content from that. Oh, most definitely expect tons of that stupid MoP "dragon...

It started okay. Let's see if it doesn't shit the bed.

STUNNING AND BRAVE

This looks like shit.

It would make me quite salty at any company if hiring was like Interview 1: Talent Acquisition Screens -> Thumbs up Interview 2: Hiring manager -> Thumbs up Interview 3: Final interview(s) with Team Lead/Lead Engineer or whatever -> Thumbs up HR -> Final decision maker despite having nothing...

Maybe I am not being clear here but Tech HR, in my experience, does absolutely nothing beyond the initial budgetary constraints for hires. They don't interview anyone unless its other HR people who will be on their team. Ever.

That seems really really retarded to let the ultimate hiring decision be on someone who not only didn't interview the person but won't be on the team that candidate is on anyway. Guess that would be a reason why everyone hates HR.

So this is something that may be unique to the Tech Industry. HR has almost zero control over screening candidates in Tech. It's done by recruiters/talent acquisition. These people are incentivized monetarily to fill seats and not not to screen out people for stupid shit like school name. Which...

When I got a Masters. I was skeptical of the impact it would have on my career. But my leadership told me it was a major factor in getting the massive promotion I got last year (given, I also did try and quit). So it definitely paid for itself.

So in a few years this will climax? Or do you think its faster approaching than we realize?

Personally I question how far school name gets you. I've never once heard of anyone (in the tech industry) giving a shit about school name. I am sure it happens but seems its a few and far between kind of thing.

Does the underlying basis of super shitty loan practices come into play this time around? What form will the collapse into underwater mortgages take?

My current house, in the Austin fashion, had the tax basis increase by $35k for 2022. Yay.

What's fridging again?

A CS degree no less.

I listened at 1.5x while working on other shit.

This guy is well spoken and this was pretty cool.

😭

Here in Texas on a 3/2 1500 sqft house I paid ~$7k this year. Shit sucks.

Yeah I've heard that line before. Lots of diversity due it being an oil town/shipping.

Houston is a shithole but at least its not Austin.

Pretty much. I got a similar house a 3bd/2bath 1450 SQFT but no basement because its Texas. I never considered mine a starter home. But it was what I could afford at the time. Now that we are both committed to WFH and the fam has expanded we are moving into a 4/3 with a dedicated study (for...

Even before the Rona I was doing 1 WFH day a week pretty much. Any place that is against WFH is a place I won't even consider working. End of story.

That kind of comp range decrease "because Arkansas" would rustle me pretty hard lol. Get fucked Fintech bros.

Yeah, in Jackal it isn't even brought up other than mentioning spell rankings. Which works into generic fantasy tropes anyway so its fine. There isn't levels or systems or anything. It really excels in subversion of the Isekai tropes. Minor spoilers.

I know I and others have mentioned it before but the best more recent one Jackal among Snakes. Much like the other really good "LitRPGS" like He Who Fights Monsters it mostly abandoned the actual litrpg aspects and only mentions them in passing from time to time. Solid fantasy otherwise. It...

Well clearly people are wanting to and buying houses thus creating a lot of pressure on the market. But the person who could afford a $400k house is going to struggle paying for that same house when it costs $800k. My income increased dramatically with the Corona, but not astronomically.
