Ola Hovde has been number 1 ever since GW10 this season but what has he done to get there? What can we learn from it?

Some things I noticed while looking at his gameweek history: 👀

🔘 Was 88th in the world after 126 points in GW2 after heroics from Kane ©️, Son, DCL and Rodriguez

🔘 Played his wildcard in GW10 and has been number 1 ever since

The felix situation,a thread,let's start with a tw:/e*ti*g dis*r*er
Im a person that had struggled with relapsing recently and had mentioned on bubble how I didn't feel like eating,on bubble each member has a gc with all the users that have that member whereas we have a solo +

Conversation, basically meaning we can see what the member says but the member can see what we all say,when felix had asked if we had eaten anything I had said no because I didn't feel like eating to which he said "if you eat ill eat" so I guess more stays werent eating

He then proceeded to ask for any new year resolutions after recommending steak and mentioned how his was being on a diet because he wasn't satisfied with how he looks due to baby fat he wants to get rid of to be happy with himself

He then shares tips on how he lost weight through dieting and says he only did it through dieting as it was the healthy option,he says what meals he had to lose weight and says that fruit can make you gain weight,which I didn't even know tbh

He wasn't being fat phobic but simply shared tips on how to lose weight in a healthy way as it was his new years resolution and I personally know many that had the same resolution as him therefore he truly just wanted to share what he had planned for this year +

The Aftermaths of visiting an ancient ruin. A visit to ruins. Ghosts of the ancient past and the frightful events thereafter. Lost memory. A real life story and a Vedic Jyotiśa Perspective.

The monuments from the ancient past lure a large number of tourist from all round the

world. People love visiting the ancient ruins. Some people are thrilled at the mere mention of such places. The romanticism and thrill of seeing an ancient structure is bewildering for some. People also get attracted to more thrilling experiences like the Catacombs of Paris, the

prison of Alcataraz or Eastern State Penitentiary, Philadelphia.
However, there is a hidden problem with all these ancient structures. These structures have been the domains of old and powerful entities. These places and structures have been witness to many dreadful incidents as

well. The incidents with their intensity and ghastliness remain in the form of energy at that respective place. The problem with energy is that, the energy is neither created and it is never destroyed. It just changes into different forms. These ruins hold concentrated dreadful

power zones that have gained power because of the long time factor and intensity of the incidents. These negative energies are like contagious virus that can inflict the weaker neurological reflexes. They can even possess people, without even a single hint.
I have found that

Needs do not matter. History is full of thinkers falling into the trap of referring to needs as were they something real and distinct. But by referring to what people "need," you're really using rhetoric without substance. You are creating the illusion that your claims are

objective, whereas they are not. To put it differently, it sounds smart but isn't. Economists recognized this fact in the early 1870s, which caused a revolution in the study of economics. Until then, they had, like everybody else, been trapped by thinking of people's needs in the

objective meaning that the term seems to imply. But there is nothing objective about it, and even if there were--it would still be irrelevant. So referring to "need" in your argument is akin to the trade of stage magicians: what you're doing looks impressive, but it's not. When

we think of a need, we think of something fundamental, basic, and necessary--without it, we could not survive. So our "needs" include food, shelter, and clothing, all those "life's necessities" without which we could not go on. A want, in contrast, is ephemeral, volatile,

unnecessary (in the strict sense), and could be (often is?) based only in the whims of whoever expresses it. But there are two fundamental problems with using the seemingly much more important concept of "need" when trying to explain or understand the world. Because it is, in a

Elkie’s Legal Letter to Cube for Contract Termination- Translation Thread

So I was thinking about yesterday, and what it's safe to talk about with respect to work. I'm gonna take *some* risk here, but ... essentially, I'm not a ROM hacker or an emudev. Those are hobbies. My specific talent is reverse engineering, which is a much more broad category.

Not all ROM hackers are reverse engineers. There are level editors, generic compression tools, script editors, hex editors, etc that can be used. Most emudevs are also not reverse engineers; instead they rely on documentation, test ROMs, and emulator source to make their emus.

In fact, that's how I made all my other higan cores. But my fan translations, and bsnes, that was reverse engineering. I have taken apart a good 30% of Bahamut Lagoon and completely replaced entire menu systems with my own code. When I started on the SNES, ...

The information was just *barely* past what the SNES developer manuals contained. I took us from opcode-accuracy to sub-cycle accuracy (clock edge accurate.) Every emulator since was based on bsnes: Super Nt, MiSTer, Mesen-S, etc. They all used my code and research.

But what got me noticed was reverse engineering the NEC uPD and contributing that code to Stephen Hawking's voice emulator. My hobbies, unfortunately, are just not profitable. Only Yuzu can earn money like that. What the head hunter wanted with me was reverse engineering mastery.

APPLYING TO GRAD SCHOOL, POST #19: DEALING WITH COMPETITIVENESS/COMPARISON

There's so much competitiveness during the application process and beyond; how do you handle it?

@OpenAcademics @PhDVoice #AcademicChatter #AcademicTwitter #phdchat #gradschool #firstgen #nontraditional

The unfortunate truth about academia (in its current state) is that it's relentlessly competitive. Motivational quotes abound on not comparing yourself to others, but that's MUCH more easily said than done, especially when other people sometimes do the comparing for you.

So how can you survive the rest of the application process (and hopefully beyond) as gracefully as possible?

Firstly, I want to address "online forums." I won't name any because if you already know them, then you know what I'm talking about, and if you don't know any of them,...

I would personally recommend to PLEASE stay off of any online forums for prospective grad students. From what I've seen, those forums tend to be less of a helpful discussion, and more of a place for people to show off the grades, exam scores, interviews, and acceptances...

they're most proud of. I consider myself quite lucky because I didn't know about any of them when I was applying, so I never had to consciously prevent myself from reading and engaging with them. For what it's worth, I was able to get all the help and information I needed...

It was commonplace experience growing up in Ashraf-majority village to hear slurs like "musalman hai to kia hua, hai to badzaat hi nh". once I heard someone say "jis gaon me Syed hota, us gaon k aas paas koi shaitan nhi aa sakta". But the most flagrant but less obvious ways

Casteism is perpetuated, I have witnessed and continue to, is via religious gatherings-Juma khutba, Milaad, Jalsa etc- where Ashraf Maulvis indulge in direct casteist slurs like "badzaat"(while referring to lower caste muslims) and not so direct like-

Ek "Ahmaq(idiot) dhobi", "Nafarmani Julaha", Bedeeni qasab" etc as part of their anecdotes/quips(Notice here the particular quality of individual is not his quality it represents "caste quality"). And how one Awliya/Buzurg (of course Ashrafs) rescued/saved those Ahmaq/Bedeen...

Here again saviourship is estblshd as "caste quality" of Ashrafs). In Ashraf Maulvis' sermons, casteism peppered anecdotes abound where inferiority of lower caste muslims(badzaat, badmaash, bezaat, Bedeen etc) and corresponding superiority of upper caste muslims(wherein They

would refer certain upper caste individual past or present in grandiose and patronising tone and tiltle eg Auliya, Murshid, ek Buzurg, Sahab-e-qalam etc.)is very skillfully estblshd.This work of normalising casteism in two-way traffic has very real cnsequences. I heard once my

Autism and meltdowns - what are they and how can you help?

A thread. Please read and share widely. As always, based on my own experiences.

#autism #autistic #Meltdown

Autistic people are stressed. *Very* stressed. Take it from me - our existence is generally peppered with moments of calm on a backdrop of continual tension and intense stress. The reasons for this are complex. /2

Our senses are often way too sensitive, meaning we live assaulted by intense sensory input - sound, vision, smell, touch and so forth. This means our base level stress is always much higher than most folks. /3

We are also usually struggling to make sense of social communication in a way neurotypical people don't need to worry about. Often we have to put actual brainwork into every interaction, as nothing seems to come naturally to us. Even with friends or loved ones. /4

So our glass of stress is very frequently filled to the absolute brim, and it doesn't take very much for us to spill over into a kind of 'post-stress' state, and I guess that's what we call meltdown. /5 #autistic

feel like adhd is becoming really visible recently which is good! but i’m not seeing any talk of the actual really difficult aspects of having it other than like hehe can’t focus on anything (which is the fucking bane of our lives but it’s the most well-known aspect of it)

emotional dysregulation is one of the worst most destructive symptoms for me to the point it was taking over my life so much i thought i had bipolar/bpd. it’s not just getting sad or having mood swings - for me it’s anger, anger that feels as if it’s eating me from the inside out

hyperfixation sounds cute but when your brain has decided it wants to put you in a state of perpetual inability to engage in your responsibilities it’s no fun at all nor does it constitute a “superpower” that helps me get whatever i’m fixated on done. it’s more like days spent

in bed unable to drag yourself away from youtube videos about tsunamis when you have an assignment due in 2 days and mouldy cups festering on your bedside table. it’s snapping at your partner because they’re trying to stop you hyperfocusing on an argument you’re having with some

random online because your brain won’t let you leave that state (this ties in with the emotional dysregulation part massively too). it’s not being able to stop reading the fanfiction you wrote when you were 14 bc you hoarded it all and your brain decided one day it’d be funny to

7 January 2020 #MAGAanalysis #PenceIsJudas

What Comes Next?

After a few hours of fitful sleep, the reality of the nightmare we're living shot me up from bed. I have no special knowledge, no guidance from above to share. Only analysis.

2) The greatest intellectual challenge we face is the enormity of the big lie. When even Mike Pence turns full Judas, and the Republican Majority Leader in the Senate rushes to as fast a certification of a false president as possible, you can feel how the fix is in. 100% Rigged.

3) Anyone who has followed the work of the great @SidneyPowell1 on behalf of @GenFlynn can find no surprise in how corrupt our judiciary is. We are witnessing a whole-of-government denial of our power as voters. In DC today, our voice is silenced. They don't need us, they think.

4) To my analytical eye, this cannot and shall not stand. I'm not predicting what will occur between now and January 20th, but truth is, I've stopped caring. It took me these several hours to realize. I am now over Election 2020. They have play acted it as theatre macabre.

5) A personal anecdote. I never voted, or even tried to, in any election until 2016. I felt the vote was a cheap trick played by parties that faked their differences but had none. I registered in 2016, in order to vote for Trump, the first attempted vote of my life.

A short question thread for single pringles.

Leggo.

1) Are you single by choice or by force?

2) Are you single all round abi you are only single online?

3) For how long have you been single?

4) Why did you end your last relationship?

Let’s go over the next couple days shall we? No panic from us. Right?
