For me? You get an interview if you apply and have even remotely close to the right skill set. My jobs are extremely technical and specialized though. I had one position sit open 10 months before i got an applicant. I see all these posts about people sending out hundreds of applications to get 3 interviews, and im struggling to get an applicatant at all
I focus on fluid dynamics and heat transfer in jet engines.

Also, if you made a mistake in an interview, that shows nothing about how youre capable of learning from a mistake.
Id rather work with someone who admits they made a mistake and learn from it than a person who “knows it all.”

My wife did basically all the shopping and wrapping.
But i drove across the state christmas eve to pick up the kitten and hid it for hours. And built all the things that needed to be assembled. I was up til about one while she was in bed by 9. Then the stuff that wasnt from santa was built today.
Each parent doesnt need to be involved in everything to still be involved.

I think the joke is about its ingredients. Lemmy went through a bean phase, and it seems to be in a corn phase right now. Not sure if theres more layers to this as im not overly active

Not just in academia. This is true for corporate life. There are happy hours left and right which are as much networking as they are excuses to have someone else buy you drinks

Ah probably because they sued you. I think the clause usually is a catch all for people filing claims against them. Thanks!

Howd you manage that? Any company worth a shit had a clause that all cases be held where they decide, typically where theyre head quartered
- Comment on How do you sleep at night? Please respond with a number 3 weeks ago:
My blankets are always stolen in the middle of the night by someone who needs to be swaddled and rolled like a burrito. I used to have “emergency blanket” under the bed for after the blankets were stolen, but that didnt always make it back, or itd get taken too.
Also the (2) 70 lb dogs sneak into bed and dont wake me up until i can no longer move the blanket. And waking the 13 year old dog up to move him is only going to disturb my partner, so its not worth it.
So like i tell me kids, control what you can control. I now sleep in sweats, and sometimes even with a robe on because thats basically a blanket that cant be stolen

No golden gun? Our mode of choice was pistols with license to kill. Golden gun was basically the worst option for you

I like how Hades did god mode, or at least how i remember it. When you turn it on, it didnt hardly do anything, but every time you died, you got -2% damage reduction, cumulative. So god mode was still tiered to your skill level, in a sense because the more you failed, the more help itd provide

Sigh… i cant believe im about to write this.
Conspiracy Swifties believe the song Wood, being about Travis’ dick, is song #9 on the album because he’s 9 inches. Additionally, the song is 2:30, and 23 cm is 9 inches.

I forget which game, but it had two different durations of summon/cast. The first time was always the long one, then youd regularly get the short one, youd randomly “crit” and get the long one, which did more damage.

You dont even have to ask. Friend can just sit at the bar, or they can bring a second person and just be at a different table. If this is a trauma response, there are ways to make in nonintrusive. Plus, if the other person doesnt know you brought back up, theyre going to be more themselves, and youll see if theyre a sleeze or not sooner. Its not hard to pretend to not be a sleeze while youre being watched then turn it around immediately when youre not.

Kelly johnson designed the SR71 Blackbird because he was given the alien tech from rosswell new mexico to reverse engineer! No other way could the government trust 1 man with a blank check book and complete authority and have the plane designed and flying in such a short amount of time!

This is something i noticed early on with the generational divide and misinformation on the internet. Older generations never had the internet in school, and this were never taught how to identify a truthful source. Those of us that grew up with the internet were drilled into our heads, “not everything on the internet is true.” From both our teachers and the generation who believes everything on the internet.
It was a big sticking point with my in-laws during covid. Theyd send me a link, and 5 minutes later id respond with, “that person never went to any college has no credentials to be commenting on the scientific and biological effects of vaccines. Here’s a published dr saying youre wrong.” Only to be met with, “you’re an idiot. Go get autism if you want.”
