I would say that setting aside a tiny bit on top of “pay your rent” for savings is necessary. It doesn’t have to be a ton but you shouldn’t be in trouble if the company doesn’t work out. Startups can take years to play out and you need a safety cushion afterwards, some basic level of financial security

Is this victim blaming, or am I misreading it?

Fighting might have meant nuclear war. How is that preferable?

I played occasionally on a counter strike source server years ago and despite being a scrub would often get 10+ players spectating me to figure out if I was cheating. I wasn’t even playing well (and never have played cs well), it was just a really casual server.

Baseless accusations are thrown around non stop

I found quake live didn’t have cheating accusations back in the day, everyone had more understanding about how much worse we all were than the pros we watched in tournaments. A half blind snap shot or tripwire shot exploiting an angle in the map is just par for the course, if you can’t make those you would have a 0% win rate in duel (my duel win rate was still under 10%)

Very helpful, thanks!

I don’t know how to read that chart. How do we know the levels increased? What did they used to be? who operates that site? What are safe levels?

The world would have ended by now had people followed that advice 50 years ago

Russia has predicted that the wests sanctions will be mild because they depend on Russia for oil and wheat. Everyone is more afraid of a recession than of future wars. Are they right? Would you be willing to risk your retirement investments from your faang jobs to sanction Russia? Or do you think it’s worth the cost to help discourage future military actions? Honestly curious what individuals think here

I’ve made it to the top 5% in a few competitive games, top 1% or 0.1% even. Once you get there, it’s surreal because of how sloppy you know you are: everything you do is still so clumsy and you still have so much uncertainty. It’s just that most other players are even more clumsy and even more confused (often more confident however).

Property values in Canada are quite high. That free free squatted on non-free land for 150 years before you got to chop it down. How many dollars per year did the land cost for those 150 years?

Just saying that the free tree isn’t free

I’ve used downpour for years and it’s a great service. Drm free downloads as well if you don’t want to use their app and a massive selection

> … and one in a hundred can double your salary.

The time required to work with the 99 who can’t double your salary isn’t nothing, that’s a part time or even full time job spent courting people who are just spamming everybody on linkedin with a pulse
