Would be epic to see the Dodgers visit Gavin in Sacramento instead of going to DC

Interview Q’s I've been interviewing for the past couple of weeks, and I wanted to share some of the most interesting questions and answers I've given. I often take copious notes, or sometimes recount from memory, so these may not be verbatim, but you get the idea. Q's in italics. Q: Tell us about a time you worked directly with a client or stakeholder to define content requirements.

I got laid off today.

Guess I can finally goto the beach and take a day off. Why did I wait so long?

So many people affected. Families. Please be kind. Most everyone I know is confused, why? They cared about what they did and the people they worked with.

When one of the two reasonably corrupt parties becomes unreasonable, we're out of options as citizens. We will need to fight for our rights, bc nobody else will do it for us.

Their ineptitude is legendary. At a certain point, the public will catch on... Right?

I can't remember the last time we had a healthy economy and a republican majority. #trumpflation is painful

Shocking!

My g-pa didn't volunteer for service in ww2 for this garbage from behind the presidential podium.

Can we kick him out and revoke his citizenship?

It's true. Cable news is like am radio in its decline.

Please consider that this truth also means the older generations are still reached via that medium. If your messaging isn't there as well, you are in danger of leaving that messaging to one party, much like the am dial still does.

Maybe games and the teams that make them need to maintain focus.

Don't make the everything, everyone game. Make the game you are good at making, or passionate about. Everything and everyone that gets in your way is an obstacle.

Remove all obstacles. Oh and swing for the fences. Why the hell not?

Agreed, but is there anything normal about how well he coached this year? Not even in a top 5 list is bananas

100 percent. Coaching masterpiece by McVay. No AD. Another year with a new coordinator. How many years in a row has this happened? Picked to finish last in the division. Rough start, finish the season by winning their division.

Give the coach his due.

(2/2)Designers need to fix this, not keep forcing unforgiving gameplay with no alt paths forward. After a few deaths there are a number of things the game could do to adjust difficulty.

This is bad design, not on you at all @ziggyprincess.bsky.social

Too many games have adopted a punishing model of "perfection to advance," limiting the players that can enjoy our games until their ending.

Someone needs to send this to the #Seahawks offensive coordinator for me. And dude, I'm not a hawks fan either. #tnf

I wish the Blues played the Rangers once a week until the end of season. We'd make the playoffs.

I'm surprised the rags haven't let their coach go. That team is much better than they play.

Making games feels so very slow until, all of the sudden, you run out of time and need to release.

I'm a procrastinator, so I get it, but for super planners and producers - what a nightmare!

It's nice that your dog let's you sleep in. My dog wants to hunt rabbits at 5am and be treated to a beeakfast feast at 6am.
