It’s a map of the area and is not the whole universe. A cylinder is a reasonable way to depict the local area and putting our main reference point in the middle makes sense.

This is a joke ntended to illustrate the sometimes absurd oversimplification that has to be made to do certain calculations. An apple falls out of a tree from 20 feet off the ground, how long does it take to hit the ground. Well, what is the drag coefficient? Assume it’s a sphere. OK, what about the texture, the air temp, wind, is the ground level and flat, etc etc. And as the problems increase in complexity the number of variables increases exponentially. So your professor might tell you to "Assume it is a spherical cow of uniform density“.
Often these estimates are actually quite good and trying to account for all variables isn’t needed.
“Like obviously we need to make people know things exist, it makes financial and logical sense, etc.“
Why is this obvious? I know it’s so normal that me asking seems weird but, is this really how the world has to work? Can we not imagine a world without ads? I’d like to at least try.
This is how it should be!!!
If you can feel more than nothing during the root canal (or any dental work) then you need more anesthetic. Dentists aim to give you as little as possible so it is up to you to let them know if you have any feeling. It can start to wear off too, you’ll know and should tell them so they can give you more.
Take earbuds and listen to some music during it. Let the dentist know and they will probably be fine with that.
Edit: Read more of the thread. Don’t get high, it can interfere with the anesthetics. Your tolerance to them can be higher as well. If you feel comfortable with it you can talk to your dentist about it.
We did prohibition once already. The result was that all the little guys went out of business and the big guys ended up in positions to be the only guys. I wouldn’t discount that as being a possibility for weed.
Agree about the romances in BG3, they feel pretty shallow. While I can maybe see your point about the writing in general what I think makes BG3 great is that it felt like playing tabletop dnd. New bad guys every week, silly fights and absurd coincidence, maps with minimal markers and characters that are there for the party to use to progress as heros (biggest thing to me that didn’t feel like tabletop dnd was having to loot every box VS just saying I searched the room).
Haven’t played other CDPR games. Guess I don’t need to bother lol.
My vote too. It’s crazy, nothing can be trusted when it relies on ads. Everyone likes to think it doesn’t work on them or is worth the free content but they are wrong and it isn’t.
And nanies cost money. So do you have another employee who could be productive now play babysitter half the time? That isn’t going to help anything but a lot of companies seem to think it’s the answer.
That last bit is HUGE. Part of what is great about working from home is flexibility and forcing people to be in on certain days just isn’t ever going to work for everyone. Inevitably you will end up with meetings where one person has to dial in and now the rest of team is annoyed they made the effort to show up that day.
Anyway, I don’t disagree with you that a hybrid where everyone is on the office together for some amount of time could be very good for productivity and teamwork. However, it just isn’t a realistic which then, as you said, makes it pointless.
Just let people work from wherever works for them.
I read them all at once and it’s been a while but overall I enjoyed them. Definitely felt like it went on longer than maybe it needed to which is probably why I didn’t bother with the short stories. I would still recommend the books.
Why though. So I might be able to reduce nausea to do… What. Be forced to see ads for shit I don’t want?
Take another job anyway. Your job search doesn’t have to stop just because you started a new job. The change, even though it’s not the end goal, might help. You might make more money, be able to set boundaries about effort/expectations early, and possibly find connections that will help you get to the end goal of finding something really new. Be honest in interviews too, really treat that like you are interviewing them and make your boundaries known where you can.
I’ve taken my own advice too. I never actually changed industries but was able to find something that worked for me. Plus I’ve met a lot of people along the way which has directly resulted in more and different job opportunities. Anyway, don’t give up on the dream but do be flexible on how you get there.
