I don’t know much about lol or fighting games but the starcraft pro scene exploded after a gambling/match fixing scandal back in 2010! The first wave absolutely had this problem
Solution is extremely simple, fly the candidate out for an in-person interview. A one-time plane ticket is a tiny expense compared to paying for the company to be a fully in-office operation, or paying a fraudster's…
I have an LG washer/dryer as well. On mine, you need to rotate the large central knob by one "click", then the buttons start to work. Why? No idea.
This depends on your size and activity level. The last time I dieted, I was losing a pound a week on 2700 calories. 1400 would have been a severe crash diet.

The article you linked says that Chiquita was extorted into illegally paying money to a Colombian death squad, who also murdered people, and were ordered to pay restitution to the victims' families. It doesn't say that…
This is very program-dependent. In my department, approximately everyone was funded by NIH, with a few NSF.
My family leaves me alone when I'm on a call, but feels free to interrupt if I'm quietly working. Sometimes, I enjoy the company, so I don't want to tell them to never do this, but I also sometimes need focus time. The…
I’ve been getting back into starcraft 1, and although there’s automatic matchmaking now there are still several old-style communities
> It's simply not practical for parents to commit all the hours needed for full time home schooling 9 till 3:30PM every day This is a “tell me you don’t homeschool without telling me you don’t homeschool” No…
That doesn't make any sense, "Them just object to..." would be ungrammatical nonsense.
Amazing to see M-A posted here. Spent way too many hours in my youth scouring the internet for things I could add and correct. I still have an ancient account with full edit access, frequently make changes on behalf of…
I still remember when they got to 10k bands. I think this must have been around 2003-2004. And people were speculating about whether there where another 10k metal bands in the world. Crazy.
For what it’s worth I have nearly complete aphantasia and I enjoy mccarthy’s descriptions very much. But if the quotes do nothing for you, his stories probably will not either.
It uses a lot of the same "hostile architecture" techniques that public spaces use to keep homeless people out. There's literally nowhere you can get comfortable, unless you want to lay on the ground in the middle of…
I am American and my children's school has exactly this rule (phones confiscated during the day). My kids report that most of their peers simply ignore the rule and keep their phone with them, and that this is so common…
Probably not, martial arts classes that are marketed as self defense or exercise rather than as training for combat sports get a significant number of women
I'm currently working in an MLOps engineer role at a mid sized company. I agree with that article that most of what I do is plain old software engineering. I don't think I'm interchangeable with any other backend dev…
For what it's worth, I have a counter-anecdote: all the women I know who are into witch stuff are married with children and several of them are self employed doing arts & crafts kind of stuff.
Macbook pro at work because it’s what all my colleagues use Thinkpad running mint for my personal machine
I’m not immune to worrying about the doom and gloom news. But what I decided is that there will be jobs for programmers for as long as businesses need custom software. The various scary economic news suggests that maybe…
At my last work from office gig, I was sitting next to a sales support person who was on the phone all day long on topics that were irrelevant to my work. And the other software people would start shooting each other…
I was also a daily drinker for years. My experience was after a while, the booze was not really helping me unwind. It was increasing my base level of anxiety, creating the “need” to use it to unwind. I could only see…
To my non Italian-speaking ears, it sounds like the speaker is using an anime/tiktok inspired “uwu voice”
When I was a child my parents did a brief experiment grinding our own flour with a cheap grindstone. I can clearly remember the sensation of the bits of stone in the bread. It is possible to make flour without this…
