What are some hobbies or useful/fun skills to get into?
I'm trying to rid myself of bad habits. I realize I spend a huge chunk of my time playing league of legends and that shit is just a waste of life. I don't even have fun playing. What are some things you guys do that you couldn't see yourself without?
I know many of you come from an esport background, so heres the official LoL world cup song made by Imaging Dragons.
It gives me the nerd chills every time i hear it. Extremely well made. I've never played LoL but this song is true for all games.
Puzzles!! Inductive reasoningby Romm3l, September 13
This is the kind of thing I figure many of you smart people here get a kick out of. It's an inductive reasoning test, where you have to figure out the "rules" governing a sequence or collection of abstract images based on the evidence, then use your induced rules to predict what the next one in the sequence / right one fitting in the indicated position should be.
I'm hopeless at it and would love for you guys to try it out and explain how you arrive at your answers. You can try a full test at http://www.shldirect.com/en/practice-tests/ - but since you have to make an account and I know not everyone is going to bother with that, I'm attaching some of the tougher ones from the site here for you to have a crack at:
Haven't posted in a very long time and kind of quit playing poker 3 years ago. I've been working at Oracle since 2 years, right now I'm in the business of selling Middleware to Dutch customers. Since this forum contains a lot of higher educated people with perhaps an interest in IT I realized there may be a lot of potential colleagues lurking around here. Therefore I'm posting here, to see if there's an interest in any kind of job at Oracle.
Oracle is one of the largest IT vendors in the world and sell all kinds of solutions to business around the world. They offer jobs in any type of role in most countries in the world; sales, marketing, IT, product development, etc etc whatever u want. Working for this company has benefitted me a lot in my career and personal development.
What's in it for me? -> Referral bonus
What's in it for you? -> I know the job interview process, I can help you with this. Not only the process but also what kind of a company Oracle is and basically how you get hired.
Send me a pm if you're interested and let's see how we can help each other.
Taking shots at 10NL on Bovada!by lhr0909, September 08
So I have been very close to have 20 BIs on Bovada for 10NL for months (hovering around $150 since July) and I finally got pretty close ($185) yesterday. Played a session in the morning and I had a massive dip in the mornging to put me back to $174. In the afternoon, I got nothing going on, and it is Sunday, so I decided to do a Zone Poker (Bovada Anonymous Zoom Tables) session. Then this happened:
Really not too shabby! I think I am still very bad though, so I post my VOD here and I am ready to get torn apart on my fishiness. At the same time I am ready to learn if anyone can give me some constructive criticism
P.S. shameless plug for my stream lol. I usually do hearthstone on stream and some other games. Poker is really an off-and-on thing because I stress myself out when I stream (yeah while no one is watching) http://www.twitch.tv/lhr0909
My last blog I talked about the ugly square brick I purchased which did its job in relieving my tech anxiety. So now it's round 2 with a more refined level of watches available, the Moto 360 vs the LG G watch R. Which would you buy?
The 1st up is the Moto 360. This watch's main feature is a very thin bezel and "elegant" design. Due to technical limitations they had to cut off a sliver at the bottom of the screen to house the display hardware, which drives some people nuts. I myself am undecided. It's one of those "cannot be unseen" details. So far reviews say you get used to it and the super thin sexy bezel overall makes up for it.
The other option is the LG G Watch R. Rather than going for an edge to edge screen they simply let the bezel remain fat, and camouflaged it with chrono markings to make it blend in. As a result the screen is slightly smaller than the Moto 360, however because it is smaller the pixel density is higher, thus making the images theoretically seem sharper. Some people feel the markings around the bezel are chintzy and remind them of a cheaper department store watch. Others like the sporty feel of it.
