Twin Peaks vibes

The article also states that the founders had endeavored to distribute more of their share to the other employees, and this was a sticking point in Krafton’s attempt to walk back the original deal:

But the trio declined, claiming the amount was not "anything close to what they deserved, and did not allow them to share the earnout with the full team."”

Given this I don’t think we can fairly prejudge the trio — if they’d received the bonus and then reneged on their promise or made it a negligible amount then it’d be fair to judge them harshly.

 

This is a follow up to a post from a little while ago about stopping the microwave at just the right time to stop the awful beeping when the time is up. Some gentlemen expressed concern with the ramifications of this depending on how exactly I did it. This is a demonstration of my technique.

Totally fair take, but for me I’m just excited for the prospect of more Wolf Among Us. Telltale had hits and misses but I definitely felt Wolf was among the former and I love to see stories finished like their Walking Dead series

My 2c: while I don’t think I have enough context and history to really know, since you said rage I’d suggest trying to reflect on all this. Rage can be unhealthy (literally) and in a way it could be that you’re allowing this person to have a negative effect on yourself. It’s great that you care about your work and its success, but ask yourself whether you need to care this deeply about someone else’s work even if it impacts your own. I’d ask whether you could achieve the same result (reporting their behavior up to recommending they be fired) in a more calm, purpose-driven manner.

Definitely do get fitted for running shoes, but for me for the knee pain after a long time of trying different things and eventually doing physical therapy I discovered my posture was the problem. I noticed that the knee issues showed up primarily when I would try increasing my speed past a point or when I would get fatigued; I was often slouching forward when I did either. This page seems to discuss the matter pretty well; I was doing something similar to the “poor” photo down the page a bit. https://runningversity.com/running-posture-correct-yours/

Beyond that I still kept some of the habits I picked up while trying to improve things prior to discovering this: glucosamine supplements (rather inconclusive info on whether these really have the ability to help or not but they’re not hurting so..) and icing the knees after running. I also take aleve after running. YMMV

Tried it and nothing, double checked the manual for my model and looks like this one just doesn’t have a mute or volume down function. Ah well, eventually it’ll break and I can fix it then!

 

Close save for avoiding the annoying beep

In my org there are SWEs that write metrics-based alerts for their running software and often need to take derivatives for example. That may not need 3 calculus classes, but beyond that there’s also the thought process that goes into it that’s applicable to the job.

You could start an OnlyDulls with the behind the scenes.

“Simplifies”

Thumbnail: something decidedly not simple

Edit: and reading the article, it’s so so much more complex than the picture could’ve implied. Awesome concept and implementation, but not simple.

In my case I did a round of battery replacements about a year ago to get them all synced after a couple annoying staggered battery replacement chirps, so I’m familiar with the codes. There was one of these that did the 3 chirps late last year and I got that warrantied successfully, so based on that experience I went ahead with replacing this one.

[–] kurushimi@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 months ago

Good call. There are a good number of them so I’ll add this to the budget.

 

The dang thing has been rarely doing the 3 chirp code a couple times during the day for the better part of a week now. Our cat is really frightened by the sound and I fairly quickly had a suspicion which one was throwing the chirps but I couldn’t catch it in the act to be sure, and it was otherwise ambiguous which one was at fault and there were no LED codes to help.

Finally confirmed it today. 10 years and 1 month past date of purchase. 10 year warranty. Figures.

He’s got good piling form I’d say.
