I guess this means FLS is the official spec now? Does that mean people can stop complaining about there being no official spec?
(As far as I’m aware, while FLS was developed to mirror rustc, rustc does not guarantee that it follows FLS, though they might change that after adoption)
Phage the Untouchable, clearly. You need to flex on your opponents with this card to maximize its value.
I would say run Doom, but I’m not confident in that. At the very least, Skyrim hasn’t been rereleased on it yet.
Another way to get rid of piracy sites is to improve consumer protections. Maybe make it possible to actually own high quality media, and do something about the streaming service BS and some content being unavailable through any other means? That might help with piracy.
I say this of course as someone who tends to prefer paying for media, but ran into situations where I literally could not or the process of doing so was not worth the effort.
An alternative could be to use something like postgres with the pgvector extension to do semantic searches instead of just text-based searches. You can generate embeddings for the text content of the story, then do the same for “sci-fi” or something, and see if searching that way gets you most of the way there.
Generating embeddings locally might take some time though if you don’t have hardware suitable for it.
SQL is designed for querying (it’s a query language lol). If the stories are huge, you can save them to individual files and store the filepath in the database, but otherwise it can hold columns with a fair amount of data if needed.
You can probably get away with using sqlite. A more traditional database would be postgres, but it sounds like you just need the database available locally.
Crapping on the floor is nothing compared to the needle incident. What the actual fuck. I’d have beat the shit out of him on the spot.
So Florida is officially Frostpunk now? I’m curious if they’ll go for safe jobs or all jobs for children. It also sounds like they’re picking up emergency shifts. It’s not a bad strategy to be honest, especially for the early game.
It’s a shame they didn’t add more targets to this spell for Hinata, but 5 mana for all of this is still a pretty good deal. Outside of commander formats though, this feels like maybe a limited bomb, but way too expensive for lots of random things in standard.
I hope it ends up being a new Magma Opus though and sees a little play. Magma Opus did have the discard for a treasure ability though, and it could tap lands.
Another card that combos with Scourge of the Skyclaves? Sounds interesting.
(Negative power creatures have a fun property of, well, being negative power when calculating total power. Having a high life total means you can bring back your whole GY as long as you bring back the scourge too.)
At first, I misread this thinking a single 5c dragon was enough to win the game with this. Needing 5 dragons is a lot though (especially with the color restrictions).
The other effects are nice, but this enchantment is just too expensive imo. Indestructible doesn’t do much when exile-based removal is so common, and the +1/+1 counters are too slow to come out and not worth the mana.
Maybe some deck finds a way to combo with this, but needing to untap with 5 dragons and not already be winning the game is going to be tough.
I’m not sure what you want me to respond with. Do you want me to tell you that you can walk in and demand a compensation at the start of your interview or something? Most individuals don’t have the bargaining power to do that. If you are desirable enough that the company wants to pay you whatever you ask for, then sure. Go in and talk about money right away.
For most of us, we are competing with thousands of others for one of maybe a few positions. The onus is on us to prove that we are desirable and will provide value, and asking about compensation first does not usually give that impression.
I don’t believe the CR has been updated yet for mobilize, but if it works similar to the reminder text and just adds that triggered ability, then I believe yes you could stack the triggers so the Cactuar grows first and then you create 10k attacking creatures (even if the Cactuar dies before mobilize resolves but after it grows due to last known info).
Life from the loam reference?
Can’t speak for everywhere, but in the US, if your first questions are about salary, they’re going to be left wondering if you’re even qualified for the job and if money is all you care about. Even if it is (which is fine most of the time), that’s not really the impression you should give if your goal is to be hired.
Asking about salary later on is usually a much better idea. You know whether you actually are interested in working there, the interviewer knows if they are interested in you, and wanting money it isn’t the first impression you give.
As for Python - leetcode style interviews are common, but almost always worthless. The only real value the company gets from something like that is to check that you actually can write code. They’re pointless beyond that, and a company doing leetcode interviews should be a red flag.
The last thing I want to do with complete strangers is give them my phone number lol. Aside from obvious privacy concerns and call quality concerns, Discord is internet-based, so I don’t need cell service or international calling to talk to people.
Screen sharing during voice calls is super helpful as well. It’s a pretty major feature of Discord, Teams, and I believe Skype (RIP), but Teams is not really any better than Discord and a lot more bloated.
Discord comes with other issues, but I would be fine with services offering an ad-supported free tier and an ad-free paid tier. That’s been a thing for a while. If Nitro gets rid of these ads, then that seems like a possibly sustainable approach to me.
Of course, this is ignoring Discord’s other issues, like their handling of user data. I’d love a service like Discord that was fully e2ee, even if it had an ad-supported free tier (without tracking) and a paid ad-free tier. Existing alternatives often lack some Discord features, like screen sharing and voice chats.
Monsters, Inc. The animation was excellent for the time. The story, humor, and emotions were all excellent. I highly recommend it.
As for the isekai aspect, it was very creative. Allowing people to travel between the two worlds with doors in a children’s movie setting really makes it stand apart from prior works with similar ideas, like Stargate (which allows travel with gates). I liked the idea that these were the monsters hiding in the closet growing up.
If I’m reading this right, exiling the card from the GY in response also causes this card to deal 0 damage? Unless it uses last-known information or something, not too sure on the rules here.
Doctors can be some of the most discriminatory people, I swear. Diagnosed with anxiety? It’s anxiety. Diagnosed with Autism? You wouldn’t understand what it is. Are you a woman? It’s nothing big.
It took us years of doctor visits until we finally found a doctor outside of our insurance network who spent the time of day to come to the conclusion that my partner’s pain and medical issues was most likely a severe case of endometriosis.
Our favorite doctor during that period was one who said they were “in the prime of their womanhood” and that pain is normal. Dang, if it only goes downhill from here, then might as well end it now.
Anyway, I wish all doctors could be like the one who actually spent time to take us seriously and investigate what was going on. It would have saved a lot of money, stress, and pain.
