Keep going! I wrapped those up earlier this year and still miss Vins exploits. Worth it and I wanted more. I need to get through storm light before listening to the next generation of mistborne.

I'm working on the way of kings, Caladan is the freaking man, can't wait to see how he develops. His little wind spirit just let us in on what she really is.. not going to leak storm light here though.

I am following his recommended cosmete order so tress and warbreaker were - nice stand alones that reminds me of Pratchett. Also great tidbits about the cosmere.

I'll be on Brandon books at least another year I think. Thanks to his work on WoT.

Sounds like most famous structures in the city. When it was built the locals called it classless and gaudy, including the empire state and wtc. this thing doesn't do much for me but it's different and one more thing that makes an aging NYC distinct against new cities with modern architecture. Sure it's a symbol of wealth and greed. So we're some of the greatest works left from the Renaissance. However This chapel to euthanasia could be closer to wall Street.

Which makes a lot of sense considering a lot of Dev shops went from waterfall oriented projects to continual devops. When fallout New Vegas came out, there were only a few MMOs that were selling horse armor. Now that has become the standard for almost all multiplayer games. Every multiplayer game now has its own in-game store to better suck dry addicts and make producers life lazier and easier. And since we're pushing out so many buggy rapid releases, the devs need to keep working to hot fix what traditional ly would have been QAd and improved before release. This is clear to me and I have never worked in a game studio.

Texas is that guy in the giant lifted truck who is insecure about how they look. They are as proud as new Yorkers are about their little slice of crap. but unlike NY who promotes we got the best experiences/opportunities, they value freedoms. Except they REALLY REALLY dont. Ita a huge lie they lie to themselves and everyone else about constantly.

It may just well be bad luck or my competitors are just better. I have know way of knowing. I wasnt always as overqualified, the contacts I met always said keep trying as I gained more experience and education. I lost hope, now that I know they probably do assume that I dont want a non public sector career long term. I live in a big diverse city though and after so many attempts without a single call I cant help but wonder if /how I am the problem.

I've considered trying to change my name & ethnicity to non caucasion to get a county job. Seems unethical, but ive never been called for an interview on lvl 1-3 jobs I've been over qualified on after a decade of trying. All my fam were civil servants and I cant do it unless I go the nepotism route it seems and I dont want to live there.
