Almost got my master's degree in compsci, now how do I practically find a job? How do I find all the job postings and then also apply to all of them and maximize my chances of finding a job? I went and manually looked through all the linkedin jobs in one city that seem relevant, but manually applying and writing cover letters for 100+ different jobs is gonna take forever

From "From Yao to Mao: 5000 Years of Chinese History by Kenneth J. Hammond". You can watch all of it on tankietube. Would love someone to discuss the series with. I have a few other "funny" clips from this series if people are interested.

I can't find any example of this. I'm thinking of like, a city besieged on land and on sea, and the defenders of the besieged city sending out an early attack against the naval blockade surrounding the city. Is there anything like that?

So Sorties are a thing on land because the attackers need some time to set up their defenses and build siege weapons and they're vulnerable during that time, but I don't think there's anything analogous on the sea.

And I don't want any cop-out answers like "Oh these guys are pacifists cause they make others do the fighting for them", I mean a genuine faction of people with power, who reject war, even when it's convenient for them to do war, and even when going to war would be considered the right thing to do by the masses, out of a genuine principle of pacifism. How do you make those people seem like a convincing faction?

nobody cares that today is my birthday

Most casual history youtubers I watch can't go 20 minutes without making sinophobic "jokes". Anyone have better recommendations for learning pre-modern chinese history, everything from culture, monarchs, etc. of China that doesn't include liberal ideology or racism? Thanks!

I've never trusted buying off of them cause I don't want my bank info stolen but I've recently realised I can just pay with paypal lol. Can anyone recommend which of those sites that sell keys for steam games are legit? I just need 3 copies of l4d2 to game with my friends.

Welcome to the weekly/biweekly/monthly (TBD) Magic The Gathering thread. Discuss a 30+ year old mega-commercialized hyperaddictive card game with us!

Thread Question 1: What formats are you playing? What are your favourite decks to play in these formats?
Thread Question 2: What is your favourite non-infinite, non-immediately-guaranteed-winning combo to play in magic?

Comm to talk about magic the gathering. I formed a discord server for hexbears to talk magic before, but some people prefer matrix, and we're generally too different in timezones for a discord to be appropriate. I would like to discuss the game and share resources for playing the game cheaply/for free.

I should have enough time to mod this myself.
