The article is using as a source a 4chan post that had a docket number that didn’t check out. I’m pretty sure this is a joke someone took seriously because they needed to publish something today.
This would get almost immediately dismissed by any judge.
I forget the specifics and who came up with it, but: pick an amount you haven’t written before. Then, write that much without looking back. If you can set your word processor to only keep your current line visible, even better. Once you’ve written that many paragraphs or pages, do a fast edit. Use a timer so you can’t linger. Then write that much again with the same strategy. After 3-5 times, do a more thorough edit of the whole thing.
It’s not necessarily how you always want to write, but it can help getting over that initial confidence block as an exercise.
It has either gotten better or just improved its suggestions for me over time. I basically never get right wing content anymore. There’s plenty of garbage, but it’s stupid garbage rather than dangerous garbage.
Consequences for their families/friends. It’s not a choice I’d ever want to have to make.
It has to actually become a common thing for it to not be a big deal. You can’t put the cart before the horse.
For a while in early WotLK, I sometimes did dungeons with a lady whose husband was on active duty, and she was always halfway into a box of wine. She really liked to share.
I’m both chaotic good and lawful neutral, depending if it’s for my job or not. I suppose that’s a fair assessment of the difference between my professional character and home character.
It’s hyperbole. You’ve never been very hungry and said “I’m starving” or been out in very hot weather for a while and said “I’m dying out here”? I’m pretty sure the average reader is able to figure out from context she has not actually been abducted to a black site and waterboarded.
I just gripped my dunks so hard, I squirted iced coffee everywhere. This is sacrilege.
That is exactly my point. It’s not worth asking because it doesn’t tell anyone anything they don’t already know. The ones employers ask are the same, though they want you to blow smoke up their ass about how it’s been your dream to write backend code for an insurance company since you were a kid.
I don’t like wasting time in interviews on questions or exercises that don’t help at least one party decide if the other will be a good fit. Unless you a hiring for a position where someone regularly needs to lie about why they’re engaging another party, these questions are rarely if ever valuable.
These are my least favorite questions, along with “what made you want to apply for this position?” I tried asking it back to a recruiter once (“why did you decide to contact me for an interview?”), and they didn’t really know what to say.
It really depends. One tenant could have an ant problem because another adjacent tenant is attracting them, which the landlord needs to address. If the structure has decaying wood, that can attract carpenter ants which is a landlord issue. Some ants like humid environments, so a poorly ventilated structure (like one with mold) could be the cause–also the landlord’s problem.
