4 by 8 sheets of lattice

Ive been lukewarm for ages and more than a month ago I want to give it all in to Jesus. And He revealed to me that He is not in the center of my 6 yr relationship and I agreed. There was no God in me at that time and it was my fault for not mentioning God in that relationship. So when God gave me a sign, he gave me a courage to break up with Him. I felt peace after.. but got emotionally wrecked later on asking did I made the right decision? Like having doubts.
This guy is like the man any girls could asked for. He has everything but there was so God in him. He knows God. He believes in God and raised to a bible school in England. But I did not see him pray, read the bible, go to church throughout the relationship. I mean I also werent reading the bible and everything.
We are long distance, visiting each other whenever we can and plan to move in together when its the right time! So covid events happened and he dont want to get vaccinated and that means he can’t come to USA as all travelers needed to be vaccinated to enter. So i can only visit him in his country even tho im unvaccinated.
So as you can guess i broke up with him over the phone.. it cruel.. but he couldn’t believe we are broken up. So he tried to go doctors and doctors to get an authorization to come here. They (4 doctors) kept rejecting it even tho he was going to pay them some money. So he felt hopeless… He walked down alone by the beach and sat and pray to God. “Lord, if we are meant to be, you’ll get me a doctor to authorize me to come to my girl”
Next day, he went to another doctor and the doctor grant him in seconds. He’s like what? Thats quick.. so yea he came back to my country finally.. and wanted me back. I could see his efforts that he wanted me back and this guy loves me so. I began telling him my journey with God and he’s listening. I began to pray, read bible with him and I see him willing and listening as I share God with him. So i said ill give you a chance… but after he left, weeks later, i broke up with Him again because i was leaning on the sign that God gave me. He came back again and said “i know you’ve hurt me so much but i have a feeling like something tells me to get you back” im heartbroken to see him hurting. So i said ok, ill give us a chance and im tired of hurting him and dont want to hurt him no more. I love him so much so Imma just give him to God. Im like “God, if whatever im doing is wrong, redirect me to the right path. If we are not meant to be together, remove him from my life. But if we are meant to be, may you guide us and may you be the center of our relationship and may you guide us to overcome the distance between us and grant us to live near each other soon. And i pray that you will come to his heart and show your love to him.”

SAs someone who has:

1. Completed all quests
2. Completed Badum quests
3. Unlocked Everything (Factions all 20)
4. Have 285/285 with gear and guns
5. Have around 8m - 10m Kmarks
6. Am at best average at straight up PvP, most of my success is from playing smart and cautious (making moves at the right time, rotating and repositioning in fights, coordinating with my team, counting shots, etc)

These are the following things that I have observed about the game, but more specifically after patch 3.4:

1. Most of my time playing the game is spent PvPing in duo and trio squads, helping out some of my friends do their quests, or just going around solo gathering cables for letium drills, doing data drives for dungeons, or farming pistons and aluminum for oil, or just doing jobs for scrips
2. Having 10m sometimes but nowhere to spend it on since my stash is perpetually full means that I have to sell perfectly fine guns such as Flechettes and Advocates to buy Kors and Brutes just to keep my money down so I can pick more stuff up to sell and not waste K-Mark rewards from jobs.
3. There has been a significant rise in cheaters after the patch. Before the patch, there were at best 1 cheater every 4 or 5 raids. Now it seems that there are cheaters almost every other raid, and raids without cheaters are either empty or full of white gear guys doing what white gear guys do.
4. Dungeons somehow outclass Lab Keycard rewards. I understand that they are not the same thing, but I have over 800 hours this season, not once have I found a Lab Keycard. Good thing I opened the Lab keyroom just before it got nerfed.
5. Due to all the end-game content being around the north-western part of Crescent Falls, the south-eastern part of the map is empty. The only people I ever find there are either white gear guys questing, or cheaters who ape for my brute that ran from Starport Warehouse.
6. Matchmaking is still not fixed. I still get trios in my Crescent Falls/Tharis raids despite being a solo. (I literally see their drops, no they are not teaming)
7. Before the patch, I had to forge around ~125x before completing the 10 Slags I need for Badum. After the patch, I have managed to get 5 slags in less than 20 forges, and got 2 slags back to back just a few raids ago. The drop rate may be slightly higher than intended, but the sample size of my personal experience may not reflect the actual statistics.
8. Tharis is dead. As someone who actually enjoys Tharis Island, it's frustrating to have my favorite map nerfed to the ground that no one ever comes there anymore except for some white gear warriors looking for a comeup or just mining Tharis Iron, or those who are there to farm slags. It's a shame, because currently, Tharis is the only map that is actually almost free of any cheaters because of the level requirement to unlock the map in the first place(Most cheaters get banned before unlocking it, and the cheaters that actually play on Tharis are most likely retail cheaters meaning they are legit players but decided they needed an edge to play the game)
9. I've been randomly getting disconnected from the raid, with my gear just vanishing, then immediately dropping back into the same raid naked. Sometimes, this happens over and over again, until I can find respite from a stranger who mercy kills me or until I exit to station which I usually do.

Now what exactly can be done about the game? I will enumerate suggestions that directly mirror the points that I have made above.
​

1. The end game loop is absolutely terrible (wow, 103,127th time this has been said on the sub, i know). The game is absolutely in need of some content especially for end game players. PvPing is absolutely the only real thing that can be done, and while that is fun, why not just play other shooters that go straight to the point like Apex? Jobs are mostly tedious and annoying to do, and it does need either an update or a rework. A global leaderboard would also be cool, as we saw several people actually playing the game just to get on the howlerbuster boards.
2. The money cap seems like a band-aid solution to a bigger problem. With the current economy of increased ammo and repair costs, more items added into the item pool, and no more permanent insurance, below average players are having a hard time keeping a steady economy in the station whereas successful players still are successful. I personally never really had a hard time hitting the money cap over and over again, the harder thing to do is actually keep my stash from overflowing. I thought the approach to season 3 was to make it easier for newer players to get into but the current system hard gatekeeps casuals while barely doing anything to sweats. Something they could do is just to add a high-roller lobby where you cannot insure gear, and the lobbies cost Kmarks to drop into or even aurum, and is locked with gear requirement so you know you will be fighting people in gear. This also means that if you die, you do not get anything back, and that what you paid for to get into the raid is also gone. (An immediate effect of this implementation might be that we would get almost empty lobbies in regular and high roller instances due to the players being further split into separate buckets but this change alone would bring back so many of the sweats who stopped playing the game back, and the casuals could actually just finish their quests)
3. Nothing to say about cheaters really, but a few hours into the patch, guys were flying everywhere once again despite " 3.4.0 containing various backend improvements and tweaks to the anti-cheat formula and Yager adding new systems to the game to help detect and prevent the kinds of cheats we have found to be the most common ". I understand that 10 devs vs 1000 cheat makers is a tough battle, but certain measures to make reporting and banning cheaters can be done. Adding a death cam that can only be played after either the whole squad is dead, or the enemy squad is dead is one thing that can be doable, many other games have this feature. And before anyone starts going, "well, you can't do this because you can drop in the same lobby if you drop back down again and now you know where the enemy is", just make it so that players have a 15-minute cooldown per instance of the map which aligns with the time it takes for gear to despawn. That way, even the information you receive from the death cam is irrelevant 15 minutes later, and is only really useful for reviewing deaths and as evidence for cheating. Sure, you can get a lucky 5-headshot beam with a Kor on someone but 12x in a row in the same raid? That's an easy ban if anything.
4. Key rooms are massively underwhelming right now. Community Room? Here's a green creature mod for your smg. What's that purple keycard you got there? - Oh, it's an Overgrown Keycard. That's 3 Circuit Boards, 21 Basic Light Ammo, and a white backpack. I've gotten 5,000 Overseers Office Keycards, but 1 Basecamp Armory Key, please explain how this is possible? Back in Season 1, key rooms were heavily utilized(as they should). Base Camp Luggage Room was always open, so was Armory in Jungle. Garage in Greens? Good luck. Hell, even Community Room was worth the trek because Loose House was there as well. I've since sold all my keycards early into the season as I have found it utterly useless and I have better luck picking up high tier weapons and armor just running around Tharis Island. Something clearly should be done here, the Lab Keycard during the start of Season 3 was perfect - it was hard to get up there, it's an extremely rare card, and it can be only used once. The loot was god tier, but that's assuming you can evac with it. And almost everyone only really got one shot at opening it, but I suppose that was too good because now all you ever really get is 3 PKR Maelstroms and a blue set. Sidenote: Puzzle Rooms are also really bad. They really are only for the reactors, and the weapon crate is a bonus, but the process of completing the puzzle, especially solo, is way too much of an ask for so little of a reward. The only puzzle really worth doing is the one by greens prospect since it can be done solo in 15 seconds, but even then you get shot as soon as you start doing it.
5. South-eastern side of the map of Crescent should get some love. Add something there that would actually make players want to go there, or at least make them decide which side of the map they should go to. As of now, all the high-gear players go Warehouse/Pinnacle due to the large open areas which make it ideal for fights, versus the thick jungles of Favela that has dense foliage and full of cliffs where you die if you slip off of. Sure missions take you there, but everyone eventually completes their missions and its off to Pinnacle most of the time from hereon out. Buffing Community Key will not pull players there since keys are single use, and I understand the dungeon is there but let's face it, not many people enjoy doing the dungeon in the first place, be it easy as it was back then or how it is now.
6. Fix matchmaking. That is all. Please.
7. Whatever this is, keep it the way it is. Don't find out oh, the drop rate was increased to 30% instead of increasing it by 3% and reverting it back.
8. Add gear lock to Tharis. That's it, plain and simple. There should be some risk to Tharis, and on the opposite side of the stick, there should also be reward. What is the point of ammo being more expensive, repairs being more expensive, money being harder to keep, if I can just keep dropping back in to Tharis with just a white backpack, mine for 5 minutes and evac with 30-50k worth of Kmarks in Tharis Iron? Imagine doing that for an hour, that's an easy 300k right there. Just about the same amount you get from completing a letium drill, but with no investment, no risk, just sacrificing your sanity for the sake of money. As it stands, in order to add 5% less fauna damage and 5% less damage from storm strikes to my shield and stamina regen during storm on my backpack, I have to fight 6 free loadouts ratting in and around Tharis without gaining anything yet risking everything.
9. I understand ping limit, server issues, yada yada yada. Just make it so if you go poof, let our teammates pick our shit up. PLEASE GODDAMNIT. This is so dumb. I've lost countless loadouts to this dumb mechanic of being booted out of the raid, and now just to add insult to injury I get dropped back in but naked over and over again. What spaghetti code is this where you fix one thing and 12 other things become broken. Just please drop our shit, let some rando pick it up and have a nice feeling picking up a kor and purple set. I don't care. JUST DROP OUR SHIT PLEASE and thank you.

Please if you love doing a PhD don’t read (I’m happy for you). I’m in the 4th year of my PhD program and I’m finally (almost) done with my tests and have finished 2 paper drafts out of 5 that I need for my dissertation. I’ve done so many time consuming tests that we didn’t even use, so much time wasted… But looks like the finish line is getting closer(?). Throughout these 4 years my advisor would always gossip about how people who go to industry are stupid and low level people, so, I always told him what I thought he likes to hear “I love academia, I love research” blah blah. The truth is, I don’t even like my major let alone doing a PhD but I’m only doing this because I wanted so desperately to leave my home country. Towards the end of the third year I realized I want nothing to do with academia, the constant stress, heavy physical labor in lab, expectations of not having a life and staying in the lab the whole day and night and not expecting money (!) and so on. I just can NOT do this any longer than I have to. I was so stressed about switching to industry (I don’t know why I thought it’s so hard to do) I was even scammed by a company that “helps PhD graduates to transition to industry” (leading to months of depression). I eventually accepted a job offer in industry but when I slightly mentioned that I may look for jobs at some point and I may need him to be a reference, my advisor flipped and got mad and said “you’re not going anywhere any time soon!” So I had to lie and say I’ll stay and do whatever he wants. Which then he changed his tune saying “oh you’ll definitely graduate soon.” my advisor thinks I’m in love with academia and even offered me an instructor job for after PhD (instructor job plus full time research but they’re not paying me for that!!). Now I’m stressed and panicking every single day because I don’t want him to find out before I defend. I don’t even know how I’m going to say I’m leaving. He’s going to kill me cause he always mentions all the AMAZING research we’re gonna do together.

8 month old baby wakes up at between 4:45 - 5:45am everyday regardless of bedtime. We could start our routine between 6-8pm, but it doesn't change the waking time at all.
We do two naps or three if LO gets really cranky or shows signs of tiredness. Not only that, but we tried putting LO down for first nap at the time we would ideally like the waking hour to happen i.e. we want baby to wake up at 7am, so we do first nap at 10am even if LO wakes up at 5am just to try and see if that could push back the naps and eventually, bedtime but that doesn't work either. We try to stay in bed till 7am to establish a waking up time, but it doesn't make a difference.
This is especially tough because LO also wakes up at least twice at night to cuddle and feed at least once. So we're getting two to three hours of sleep at a time - this has been happening since Day 1 so we are EXHAUSTED and we really need to push back for a later waking time in the morning.
Wake windows are 3/3/3-4 depending on how tired LO is by then. We need tips to help us push back our baby's waking time. Any help or tips are welcome!

As it says in the title, I went into the crawlspace for the first time in 6 months and saw something pretty gnarly. We moved into this house, our first home, which is a new build, finished in 2019. We live on essentially wet land, there's a small canal and a large lake nearby, so the water table is quite high. Our house is built on concrete foundation footings that are supported by piles driven into the bedrock so I think the foundation isn't going anywhere, but take a look at my photo album linked at the bottom and check out that poured concrete floor which has cracked and sunk about 8" from the foundation footings, exposing dirt, gravel and some of the support piles. There alot of mouse poop because evidently rodents now have space to get in. I've also noticed the first floor is very very cold in the winter time, heating bills are high, and I feel like air is escaping through this crawlspace and moisture is probably coming in too.
I didn't notice any cracks of any sort in the foundation footings, nor are there abnormally large cracks in any of the visible walls. All windows open and shut properly, some doors are a bit jammed but I figured that's from regular expansion and contraction of the wooden doors and frames.
It's my first home and I'm fucking exhausted by the amount of shit that's happened to this house and the out of pocket costs. I don't think insurance is going to cover this. Who do I call to fix this, how much will it run me, is this something I can fix myself, how worried should I be about this problem? Has anyone dealt with this kind of issue?

Sorry I couldn't catch it all, it bled over onto another page

So I work for an insurance broker based in California. I started on customer service and recently got promoted to key account manager (which means I basically overlook the customer service team, review policies that are renewing or cancelling, assign tasks and deal with underwriting issues), but currently they're understaffed so I'm pretty much doing both jobs at the same time until they find someone to replace my spot in customer service. What I'm trying to get at here is that I both still receive calls from our clients and also get to see all of the renewals that are upcoming... And boy these renewals. Right now there's a crisis with insurance, I don't know about other states but in California auto insurance is just a mess right now. All companies are increasing their prices drastically, many companies are not accepting new business and the ones that do only offer liability, and also some companies are just closing business in California and slowly non-renewing all the policies, and on top of that companies are changing their billing plans to be 25% down on renewals. If someone has a claim or a point in their record it's gonna be impossible to find another company that'll take them and their current one is definitely gonna increase the price to a ridiculous amount because these companies are literally trying to get people to cancel their policies. They don't want more clients and they don't want the ones that have a risk of getting in an accident to stay with them.
Everyday it's just harder to have to tell that to our clients. I've seen policies go from $1,000 for six months to $4,000. The other day I saw one where the client was paying like $900 for six months and on the renewal just the first payment is gonna be over $1,000. And I say is because there is no other option. We've had so many clients say "well if you can't find me something else then I will on my own" and then they come back and pay the renewal because they didn't find anything on their end either. At this point we're telling them yes, please look for other options on your end and if you find something we'll gladly assist you with cancelling your renewal, but please make sure you've closed the deal with the other company first cause if you cancel now and don't find anything else, opening a new policy is gonna be really expensive and most likely you'll only find liability. Clients that had one car on their policy and don't have it anymore are keeping those policies active until they get a new car in like two or three months because they fear if they cancel they won't find a good deal when they need insurance again.
It's just really frustrating on all ends. I understand how difficult it is for our clients and trust me we do all that's in our power. Reviewing each policy carefully, making sure they have all the discounts they can apply for, making sure the annual mileage is calculated correctly, offering to increase deductibles to reduce the price a little and if you have an old car with comprehensive and collision we advice it's not really worth it and to remove that coverage. But in the end all those things only go so far, yeah it may reduce the price by like $500 max, but it's still gonna be a lot more expensive now. So it's frustrating in that sense, but also the clients blame us for this when we have nothing to do with the pricing. The amount of people who have cursed at me the past couple months is insane. And I understand they're upset, and they have a right to be upset, but it's so draining to get yelled at for something you have no control over.

I am working on implementing a custom Deque interface. Everything is working (interation included) except the equals methods. Whenever I submit my code to an auto-checker, it fails one of the tests for equality and outputs: "ArrayDeques and LinkedListDeques with the same elements should be equal." I cannot figure out what I have done wrong. These are the equals methods within my LinkedListDeque and ArrayDeque classes, respectively (part of a package that includes my custom deque interface).
LinkedList Deque:

@Override public boolean equals(Object o) { if (o == null) { return false; } if (o == this) { return true; } if (!(o instanceof Deque)) { return false; } if (o instanceof LinkedListDeque) { LinkedListDeque other = (LinkedListDeque) o; if (this.size() != other.size()) { return false; } Iterator dequeIt = this.iterator(); Iterator otherIt = other.iterator(); while (dequeIt.hasNext()) { if (!dequeIt.next().equals(otherIt.next())) { return false; } } return true; } else if (o instanceof ArrayDeque) { ArrayDeque other = (ArrayDeque) o; if (this.size() != other.size()) { return false; } Iterator thisIt = iterator(); Iterator otherIt = other.iterator(); while (thisIt.hasNext()) { if (!thisIt.next().equals(otherIt.next())) { return false; } } return true; } return false; } 

}
ArrayDeque:

 @Override public boolean equals(Object o) { if (o == null) { return false; } if (this == o) { return true; } if (!(o instanceof Deque)) { return false; } if (o instanceof ArrayDeque) { ArrayDeque other = (ArrayDeque) o; if (other.size() != this.size) { return false; } Iterator thisIt = iterator(); Iterator otherIterator = other.iterator(); while (thisIt.hasNext()) { if (!thisIt.next().equals(otherIterator.next())) { return false; } } return true; } else if (o instanceof LinkedListDeque) { LinkedListDeque other = (LinkedListDeque) o; if (other.size() != this.size) { return false; } Iterator thisIt = iterator(); Iterator otherIterator = other.iterator(); while (thisIt.hasNext()) { if (!thisIt.next().equals(otherIterator.next())) { return false; } } return true; } return false; } 

It passes my unit tests for equality:

@Test public void randomizedInsertionAndDeletion(){ ArrayDeque deque = new ArrayDeque<>(); LinkedListDeque deque2 = new LinkedListDeque<>(); int N = 5000; for (int i =0; i ​
 
 @Test public void equals() { ArrayDeque deque = new ArrayDeque<>(); deque.addLast(true); deque.addFirst(false); deque.addFirst(false); deque.addFirst(true); LinkedListDeque deque2 = new LinkedListDeque<>(); deque2.addLast(true); deque2.addFirst(false); deque2.addFirst(false); deque2.addFirst(false); assertEquals(false, deque2.equals(deque)); assertEquals(false, deque.equals(deque2)); } 
 Basically, I'm having a hard time understanding why it passes my tests for equality but not the auto-checker's test...
