I think the important question everyone should ask themselves is how close does it need to be to outweigh the damage to the environment and the harm done to animals?
From my perspective, raising and killing an animal because you need to in order to survive is more forgivable than doing so just because you enjoy the taste.
So I've gotten pretty good at applying for jobs having moved quite a bit and needing to change a few times in the past decade. Here's my unsolicited advice for people getting sick of the application process (it sucks I know):
Make sure your resume can be easily OCR'd. OCR, or optical character recognition, is how programs and machines convert image-formatted text into plain text. Sometimes it works pretty well, and sometimes it spits out a garbled mess of text. If you've ever done an application that auto-fills fields after you upload your resume, you probably have a good idea how readable your resume is by a computer. Like it or not, the first step for a lot of companies is to filter by OCR converted text fields, and if yours isn't legible, you may be out of luck. Use a simple, consistent font and don't do any special formatting. If you want a second "fancier" printed version of your resume for interviews, go for it.
Fit your resume to a single page and highlight your skills at the top. You can change these from application to application if you want, and if you do, I suggest using verbiage from the job description because these are the keywords they'll be looking for.
You'll probably see a few jobs that really seem like a great fit for companies you really want to work for. CALL THESE COMPANIES. Trust me, employers don't love the hiring process either, and if they're actively trying to fill a role and they get a call from someone interested, they'll probably respond. They may just politely tell you to follow the standard process, but that's really the worst case scenario. And even if they do, they'll probably keep an eye out for your application.
Y'all remember that post about the "science-based dragon MMO" that topped the gaming page of...that other site...? If not, I'll include the title and image below, because it's got the same energy as this post.
Dear internet, I'm a 26 year old lady who's been developing a science-based, 100% dragon MMO for the last two years. I'm finally making my beta-website now, and using my 3D work as a base to create my 50+ concept images. Wish me luck, Reddit; You'll be the first to see the site when it's finished.
The comments were surprisingly constructive considering she basically pasted zsphere sketches over a generic background and announced she had been solo developing the most ambitious dragon fucking game the world has ever seen. It's been 12 years, I wonder how she's doing?
Personally I don't care about the rewards. If I'm playing a tough game or a higher difficulty it's more about the sense of accomplishment that comes from finally overcoming the challenge. That being said, some people don't get their dopamine from that sort of thing so I totally think more difficulty options is always a good thing.
Pretty much. Although I don't know of anyone who doesn't add salt to a burger anyway, and the beyond/impossible burgers don't need any extra, so I don't think the sodium content is a super fair comparison.
The idea is that you can quickly and easily replicate a flavor you're used to and remove the animal element. You can also buy it and have a good idea what it will taste like.
But it's not healthy! Yeah no kidding, when I eat a burger it's generally not for the health benefits.
If my name was either exceptionally hard to say by another species, or if by them uttering my name it could bind me into their service or kill me or whatever, I'd probably go with whatever stupid name they came up with for me too.
