Honestly, nothing really. It feels like each year more fucked up things are happening, so I lost the positivity I had for the upcoming years.

Don't get me wrong I am in a good place personally, but with all the stuff going on in the world it sometimes feel hard to believe it's gonna get better any time soon.

Nothing really surprising to me, but the burnout rate really worries me.

Also having only 5% females in the field is a shame, would love to see that increased over the next decade.

Really rooting for DTR here. A shame the browns front office made the Watson decision

But surprised by the backlash here, but I was thinking 21 century Germany.

And in the last 20 years germany did not manage to do anything when it comes to digitalization. Hell, our schools still use overhead projectors.

I am curious how this will turn out. Germany is not known for state driven digital innovation and this is a huge project.

Even though I am highly sceptic, I hope they finally manage to get something going because Germany and whole Europe needs more independence from US hyperscalers.

I fear this will die in good old German bureaucracy though.

Took away Admin rights, so everytime you wanted to install something or do something in general that requires higher privileges, we had to file a ticket in the helpdesk to get 10 minutes of Admin rights.

The review of your request took sometimes up 3 days. Fun times for a software developer.

You could also use something like JustTheRecipe.

If you want something for free to get rid of the clutter plainoldrecipe might be a thing. Though the server was down last time I checked

That means that you are probably around 14 years old.

Rule of thumb: don't smack bottoms without consent. Goes either way

If you go for a slow fermentation, I have experienced that almost no kneeding is necessary. But then we are talking of several proofings and total time of at least 24 hours. But instead of taking my unscientific opinion, I raise you The science of Bread. Have fun watching, it's amazing

Disagree on this one, even though I can see where you are coming from. I first learnt programming in Java, and it gave me massive problems to understand the structure and typings. Obviously Java isn't the most beautiful language anyways, but once I picked up python it started to click for me on how to solve problems, because I didn't have to think about that many things. I could just go for it. Yes, my code was messy in the beginning, but I wasn't working on any important projects. It was just for fun.

So I think learning how to solve problems is as important as writing clean code. And python really helped me with that.

I have read the text 4 times now, but I neither see a question nor understand what you are talking about. Could you please rephrase?

I am nowhere near playing on tournaments so take my advice with a grain of salt.

Pick a main character (for now), does not matter if it is the best in the game but it should be at least B+ in the Tier list . It's more important that you feel comfortable with the character and have fun playing it than if its S Tier. Then go on YouTube and find out the basic and advanced combos for this character and practice them in practice mode until you can execute the almost without thinking

Disclaimer, some characters do not really have a combo game while others just go bonkers in combos. For example Lucina is a good character without a crazy combo game. If you have a character like this the next step is even more important.

Learn the spacing of you character, how to approach and how to keep control of center stage. Those are usually rather vague concept, but if you go into matches just thinking about one of them you will progress there.

Lastly, watching more YouTube. Thereby you learn a lot of match ups, characters and their usual habits without playing yourself on hours in crappy wifi. I can recommend poppt1 as one of my favorite, who also has a series where he picks up different characters to learn them for tournaments.

Good luck, have fun

Good call, thanks :) For now I would just let the people do how they want and see. Luckily we are not reddit

In Jugoslavia most people saw Tito as a benevolent dictator. Once he died Jugoslavia fell apart. Obviously the history behind it is a bit more complex, but most people I have talked to in those countries saw him as a "good leader" that lead the country in a direction the people appreciated. Propaganda still played a big role in it and people with more historical knowledge will be able to comment a bit better in this topic. But he is the only one who comes to my mind.

As much as I like the idea of pointing newcomers into the right direction, post says basically nothing at all. All 5 points can be used for literally everything not specific to coding really.

Coding and CS in general has become so huge that finding a place to start can be very overwhelming, so just linking some resources won't do the trick.

A beginner should ask himself "what do I like to do" which then would point into a direction of what programming language to use. E.g. "I want to automate my daily tasks" would point towards python. Whereas "I want to make own game' would point towards the unity world and C#. "I want to make my own website" to javascript. And obviously "I want to write almost unreadable loads of boilerplate code" would be java.

From then on your resources could make sense to explore.

Also "talk to people" is easier said then done. Most people not in a programmer bubble don't even have the access, so linking to programming communities would be nice.

Hope my 2 cents help to make it a bit more concrete

The Internet, social media and how we can access absolutely everything from this tiny device

This year really was horrible up until mid June I would say. So much that even the farmers can see it in their first harvesting season, it's way worse than the last year's because most of the fields were under water. Sorry you got the wrong end of it. But even if the forecast ist supposed to be good it can all change really quickly up here. Still amazing to visit :)

I like Wishiwashi as well. Magneton as one of the OGs would come to mind or dugtrio. Maushold would also work, and even be decently close to a lemming.

FYI I found a PokemonVCG community here with 8 members, so maybe you should just join that one until there is something big

I guess splitting a niche into even smaller pieces would be a bad idea for now, so I would suggest having one combined competitive channel to begin with. Any name suggestions? Should we go with a similar approach as stunfisk and just name it Girafarig/heatmor/whatever or give it a more expressive name like CompetitivePokemon?
