![]() It’s one thing to find out how much you might be worth, but LinkedIn hasn’t stopped there. Because you might call yourself a Growth Hacker but another member described themselves as a Marketing Manager, LinkedIn uses a variety of machine learning signals, such as skills, work history, and others to standardize titles across the board. What’s more, Sandler explained that LinkedIn has done some work to eliminate duplication of titles and improve job title taxonomy. The company also has what it hopes is a dedicated user base contributing to its library of data, something that isn’t readily available to Glassdoor, Indeed, and many other services. You’ll be able to filter further by industry and the number of years of experience you have.Īlthough salaries are provided in percentile ranges, LinkedIn believes its offering is more accurate than other services because it takes into account not only location, but also industries and job title. The search results will display the number of members that have shared relevant information within the past 12 months - this is done because of the frequency with which people swap jobs. You can look up salaries based on title and location, like “reporter in San Francisco, California,” for example. To date, more than 1 million members have contributed to this program, he said. Ryan Sandler, the product manager on the Careers team, stated that any data submitted is encrypted so LinkedIn’s team doesn’t know who provided the salary information. ![]() To do this, you simply provide salary information anonymously to LinkedIn, and you are then given unlimited access for one year. ![]() It operates on a “give and get”-type model, meaning that you’re limited to one page view until you contribute to the service. LinkedIn Salary aims to solve this problem. But while you may have the resources needed to get your foot in the door, what happens when discussions come up about how much you expect to make? This was a weaker area for LinkedIn because it didn’t have any tools to help its 467 million members research this type of information. Overall, Keene says demand is highest for IT professionals with very strong C# or Java development skills, for those with project/programme management skills related to specific banking applications and for anyone with product knowledge.People looking for a new career or job opportunity may turn to LinkedIn because it’s a place that not only houses their digital resume, it also contains an extensive network of people to reach out to for assistance (thanks to the “six degrees of Kevin Bacon” effect). Following a generous 40% pay rise between 20, IT programme managers in investment banks can now command up to 1,000 per day. Senior management have seen also a marked increase, particularly on the bonus front.Ĭontractors are also thriving in current market conditions. Keene said senior managers within equity derivatives are in demand, with most candidates able to command both a salary hike and a guaranteed bonus. ![]() "Key investment banks are prepared to increase salaries to attract the best candidates." "This is basically a supply and demand issue," he said. Following a 42% increase in total pay, the survey suggests some are now earning total packages of 180,000.īy comparison, pay for project managers and programme managers remained relatively static.Īndrew Keene of Thomson Keene attributed quant developers' good fortune to a shortage of talent.

![]() It was a great choice to make the bosses vulnerable to both the regular shooting snow at them and especially from hitting them with other snowballed creatures. The final boss is great, but my favorite is probably the green creature who is very difficult and interestingly structured. Some are easier than others, but most of them are suitably hard to destroy. If you get all three at once, you are basically unbeatable.Īs for the bosses, they are all excellent. But the yellow one for shooting distance is also important, and of course the blue one for larger snowballs is a must get. Of the three main potions, I found the red one the most important one as running makes any level so much easier to beat. They appear just often enough without becoming too abundant, and playing without them is so much harder. This is a perfect example of a power-up being flawlessly utilized. Speaking of the power-ups, they are fantastic and they make this game a joy to play. That made for a very interesting, authentic mix of platforming and shooting, not to mention a lot of interesting physics with the snowball killing other enemies in its wake, thus producing multiple rewards. Those appear only after too much time has passed and they can really screw you over.Įach enemy is beaten by being made into a snowball. ![]() The same goes for the Halloween pumpkin that releases the ghosts. The lizard guys can be a nuisance with their fire attacks while the tornado guys are also hard to escape if you get cornered. The red devil-like goofballs are very easy to beat, but everyone else is significantly more difficult. There are many different types of enemies here. Usually, you have to go all the way up to beat the level, and that made for a very interesting, tower-like setting. The game consists of fifty levels, each has to be passed by killing every opponent on screen. You are a snowman that has to save his princess. It is interesting for featuring a top-down structure instead of left-right, which was more popular during this period. The gameplay is quite authentic and different than anything else I’ve played before. It’s such a wonderful, underrated platformer. is a classic platform arcade video game released for Arcade in 1990. ![]() ![]() If she does it’s not the end of the game, but she becomes traumatised and her personality alters as a result. So instead you not only have to sneak past guards but try and make sure Lily doesn’t see any act of violence or its aftermath. But unfortunately none are ever really forthcoming. As unlikely as the set-up may seem all it needed was a few half decent plot excuses to justify it and you would’ve taken it for granted. If that premise sounds a little contrived, then that’s exactly how it comes across in the game. Although it’s not just the risk of discovery that stays your hand, but the fact that you’re trying not to reveal what you’re doing to an orphan girl named Lily. The pseudo-medieval setting and prominent use of a grappling hook is very reminiscent of the old ninja simulator, as is the emphasis on staying out of sight and not resorting to violence unless absolutely necessary. But until then, I must bow out.For those that have been waiting years for a new Tenchu game this may be the closest you get for some time. Should any of the above change, I will happily reconsider. Again, vendor lock in (Steam only), and true value lost to all users on GOG.ĭon't get me wrong, I LOVE the demo. In any case, I discourage any vendor-lock in - especially when alternatives exist (I'm looking at you Witcher 3). To be fair, I don't know how much of a problem this is for AMD users but suspect it highly based on point 1. The game performs poorly on my AMD hardware (see previous posts) even when accounting for typical AMD vs Nvidia performance differences under Linux. Sadly, this game hit too many hurdles for me. And I truly want to support developers like Frozenbyte (and I don't mind forgiving their flaws whenever possible). I love that they put a fine polish, and a unique (and enjoyable) spin on their games. I love Frozenbyte and their game designs. I didn’t play that long, so there is still a chance this hack will crash the game.Īfter a few days to think it over, I've decided (not lightly) to request a refund. I think it only took a minute or two total (didn’t time). I don’t know why this is, but if you are testing this hack, prepare for that and don’t assume it crashed. It will get to half way, and just take longer. The initial load time of the game (the blood filling the bird crest) seems longer. Looking down 2nd alley: 25-28 (I think it was around 15 as well) Running Medium Details, 1080P, Medium AA, and a single-gpu (crossfire not supported by open drivers yet) these were the approximate FPS for each area (with the FPS using the proprietary drivers in brackets I posted earlier). Next, I tried the MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=4.1 command and it seems to have worked! Not only that, but it’s a vast improvement! I didn’t bother going farther – I just wanted a feeling for any difference that might exist and the conclusion was “worse”. 10 FPS at the main menu, around 8 in the opening area. The FPS was pretty bad using Very High Details. I wanted to make sure I was being fair to the officially supported OS, so I ran the game under Ubuntu 14.04 using the fglrx-updates proprietary drivers. If someone is interested in more complete tests, I can try and do that. I’m just shooting for snapshots to get an idea of how well this game might work. A final(?) update on Shadwen on Linux (Manjaro 64-bit) using an AMD card (6870):įirst, my apologies that these tests are a bit all over the place. Shmerl: See this thread for potential workaround by spoofing OpenGL version: t=27507 The 15% discount will last until May 24, 1:59 PM UTC. Put on your soft leather gloves, don your darkness-colored robes, and keep your murders quiet as you become Shadwen, DRM-free on GOG.com. Killing might not be necessary, as long as Shadwen manages to stay hidden or use distractions, thus sparing young Lily the horrible sight of this muffled violent dance. Before you execute any action, time stands still, allowing you to change plans on the spot and even rewind failed attempts. Perhaps there is another way to get past these guards, climb on that scaffold, and continue on her mission to assassinate the king. Time stands still as Shadwen lurks behind a dark corner, wishing that the little girl cowering beside her didn't have to witness the brutal scene that is about to unfold. Shadwen, a thrilling exercise in silent killing within a bleak medieval environment, is now available for Windows, Mac, and Linux, DRM-free on GOG.com with GOG Galaxy support for achievements and a 15% launch discount. You have a few problems with them - the art and music resources come from a number of different artists, and are in a number of styles - fantasy, modern, sci-fi, horror, etc. RPG Maker MV (The most current version until MZ comes out.) often sees a price as low as $20.Īdd-Ons/DLC/etc are always going to be a mixed bag. Alternatively the other versions go on sale fairly regularly. ![]() This is another one with a Mac version.Īs far as paying for a version, RPG Maker MZ is about to release August 20th, so I would wait for that one. It's sort of free competition to Unity or Unreal Engine, and until recently had a strong focus on 2d projects. This engine is more complicated than RPG Maker, but if you want to get out of the RPG Maker kiddie pool, it is an excellent way to go. Looks set up to make Paper Mario style games. Haven't used it myself, but it looks interesting. Again, Windows only, so you'll need to find a way around that. It's sort of like a demo version of RPG Maker VX Ace, but there's enough there to mess around with. It's also Windows only, so you'll need to use a VM or something. It actually has some real advantages over RPG Maker itself, but I would say it's slightly less user friendly. Any thoughts? Seems to be so many versions now, so I don't even know where to start given how long it's been since I even thought about rpg maker Would love to get the full bundle but I wont be able to spend that much for a few months, once I'm working again. Is there a free version, or way to get the old one (on a mac)? I'm not looking to make some incredible game to sell or anything, just want to play around and have something fun to kill some time. Now, I don't mind paying for games, but I'm currently broke and unemployed from covid so I'm priced out of these new iterations. So, I suddenly remembered it today, and was excited to see it still exists. It was free way back when (probably late 90s, early 2000s), and I used to love just messing around making not so great games lol. Huge fan of oldschool, 16 bit JRPG style games, and suddenly remembered this from my childhood. The game over image can be modified by replacing the image used for the game over screen with another one, or by editing the file itself using an image editing program.Hey all! Honestly, I had forgotten all about RPG maker since my childhood. Usually, the game then returns to the title screen, where the player can either start a new game or load a saved game. When a game over occurs, in early games the player is required to restart the game from the beginning, though in more modern games, game over does not force a player to restart from the beginning, as the player is either able to restored from a saved game, or in some games, able to restart the battle or event from the beginning.īy default, in RPG Maker, a game over will occur when a battle is failed due to running out of alive party members, but it can be triggered by an event by using the event command of the same name, " Game Over", for example due to failing a timed challenge, or choosing the wrong choice in an event. Game Over is a common state in video games that usually occurs due to failing at a game, such as running out of health, or failing a required story objective. ![]() ![]() The power-washing of two water towers by H20 Towers, LCC, of Saline, Michigan, for $9,950.A quote of $4,782 from Reliable Generator and Electric, LLC, of Niles, to test the city’s generators.Joseph Archaeology Open House with Western Michigan University from Aug.

He thought that could be an issue if golf carts were allowed on the streets. Niles did not seem to, and the added insurance, property and policing issues that could arise from allowing golf carts did not seem worth it, he said.Ĭommittee chair Daniel VandenHeede noted that state law requires golf cart drivers to wear helmets. “The afterthought is, ‘Nah, I just don’t really want to deal with it.’”Ĭity attorney Robert Landgraf said that municipalities in the state that approved golf carts on city streets usually had a reason to do so. “I think the initial reaction that I got from the vast majority of people was, ‘Hey, that’s kind of a novel idea. No member made a motion to approve the use of golf carts on city streets, but the topic was discussed.Īfter talking to constituents, a few committee members said their constituents’ interest in allowing golf carts waned. The ordinance committee also extended the prohibition of golf carts on city streets. It would not permit the team’s members - consumers - from shooting fireworks on their own. If NHS wanted to celebrate a sports team making it to a state championship, it would hire a commercial fireworks company. She used Niles High School as an example to differentiate between the two definitions. Commercial fireworks can also be launched at any time, too, so long as a business receives local government approval.Ĭommittee member Gretchen Bertschy said she wanted to be sure the difference between “consumer” and “commercial” was made clear in the recommendation to the city council. Low-impact fireworks, like snappers and handheld sparklers, can still be used any time under the new Michigan law. “They hear the noise, but they can’t tell where it’s coming from, and so we’re searching literally a five, six-block radius.” “A lot of times, when people call in, they’re calling about the noise,” Millin said. The key, he said, is catching the culprits in the act of setting the fireworks off. ![]() The 2018 fireworks laws increase civil fines from $500 to $1,000. For those who break the law, the police department could issue heftier fines. Millin said that this would keep law-abiding citizens from shooting fireworks on prohibited days. “This just kind of shrinks that a little bit more and allows people to have a little more peace when they otherwise wouldn’t.” “Certainly, if people are outside the law now, we can issue citations,” Millin said. ![]() “ creates a hole, juice comes out and the meat gets dry,” says Mr Fortuna. Tony Fortuna, owner of the always-buzzing TBar Steak and Lounge says he spends $34 to buy a 24-ounce, dry-aged cut of rib eye, and if one customer finds their steak overcooked, “we lose money on the whole table”.Īdding to the issue is the fact that many chefs have dispensed with using meat thermometers and just go by feel, says Mr Fortuna, who keeps a close eye on his steaks’ outer char as well as on their inner moisture. So kitchens err on the rare side, knowing the dish can always be rescued with a minute or two more heat. “If a customer says their steak is overcooked, it can only be thrown out,” says Mr Hanson, the owner of Henry at Life Hotel who previously ran four steakhouses under the BR Guest banner, including the Strip House chain. ![]() ![]() Every cent counts when eateries are under unprecedented strain from high rents, high labour costs and brutal competition. Restaurateur Stephen Hanson says it’s mainly about money. Even Bowery Meat executive chef Josh Capon says he now orders medium-rare-plus, rather than medium-rare, for himself when he’s out, because “most steakhouses are undercooking”. I now ask for medium-rare-plus to prevent getting steak too raw and tough to chew. Your steak is being cooked wrong on purpose. Only Bowery Meat Company nailed medium-rare as I expect it, although Porter House New York’s slightly underdone, chilli-rubbed rib eye had the best overall flavour and char. Similar cuts that I braved in the last week, at STK in Midtown and at Delmonico’s in FiDi, were nearly as rare. Yet, the “medium-rare” rib eye that I had at salt-spewing Salt Bae’s Nusr-Et was so red end-to-end, it resembled a bloody nose. It “maintains the most flavour and it keeps the juice in the meat,” says Laurent Tourondel, the founder of the BLT Steak chain who’s now a partner in Brasserie Ruhlmann and L’Amico.Īt Porter House New York in Midtown, executive chef and co-owner Michael Lomonaco says more than 60 per cent of his customers order medium-rare. Unlike rare, medium-rare allows time for the outside to caramelise and develop a sear. Most chefs regard beef cooked to medium-rare - with an internal temperature of 130-135F (55-57C) - as the best way to bring out flavour and retain moisture in tender cuts such as rib eye and top loin. The medium-rare steak has changed over the years. An undercooked steak, on the other hand, can always be salvaged with a touch more fire as my friend’s was. While getting an underdone steak has been a possibility for decades, what’s really given the phenomenon traction is that chefs are under bottom-line pressure to reduce throwaways that occur when customers say a steak is too well-done. What I got wasn’t remotely the medium-rare ideal of red at the centre fading to pink around it, but the near-purple hue known as “blue rare”.īoth incidents reflected the new, medium-rare confusion. “So we sent it back.” It was refired to perfection and she said she’ll go back to Wolfgang’s.īut chew on this, steak lovers: Your medium-rare cut is getting rarer, in both senses of the word.Ī few days after my friend’s experience, I ordered a boneless rib eye medium-rare at Del Frisco’s Double Eagle Steakhouse in Midtown, New York. The outside was seared - it looked like a normal steak - but when we cut into it, it was practically raw,” says Ms Wagner, a real estate publicist. MY FRIEND Barbara Wagner gulped when the rib eye she and her husband recently ordered medium-rare at Wolfgang’s on East 54th Street in New York came to the table. ![]() Please note that Urban Thesaurus uses third party scripts (such as Google Analytics and advertisements) which use cookies.
