    The Rugby Thread - Part Deux

    If you haven't watch the highlights of Chiefs vs Crusaders you should. In that first half I think the Chiefs could have beaten any club team in the world, even Bordeaux. Second half was not as great.

    Series [Please do NOT post any spoilers] - Season VI

    One episode down in Cape Fear but so far it has been pretty good. Definitely got a creepy dark undertone, right up my alley.

    47.1% of South African adults do not have matric

    Every pentesting firm in the world is creating an AI in some way or another. Some just have more money to throw at it than others, so far from the LLMs I have seen they are far from replacing a pentester and we have trialed the top 20 at least. They have found a cool few things but miss gaps we...

    47.1% of South African adults do not have matric

    Yes really, not everyone finds it easy to communicate and people who think they are fantastic at communication are not always good at it. Like everything it is a skill where the more you practice the better you get. There is a reason no one takes a 20 year old seriously in a company, doesn't...

    That's how it was written. Thinking a home schooled child can get everything out of there parents is lazier thinking. Name a professional sportsman who was home schooled and made it to the top of a sport. The bonds you form during school are also the closest bonds I have ever had and still go...

    47.1% of South African adults do not have matric

    In my industry this is the case especially when a potential employee is early 20s. A 24 year old ready to grind vs a guy who has been buggering around since 18 it's a no brainer. The gap does close later on. There are plenty people more successful than me they could go start a business and hit...

    47.1% of South African adults do not have matric

    That 47% can't do those things and are going to be a drain on our society. Sitting in a classroom teaches you how to do a work day and remain disciplined which is the hardest thing to learn when working. I never said it teaches you x or y. School gives you tools to make decisions for yourself...

    Well it does teach critical thinking speak to someone without an education and you figure quickly that they can not think critically. Communication is not natural it is something you work at your entire life and school gives the opportunity to test these skills between cultures and backgrounds...

    Lol maybe if you worked at school and got a degree you wouldn't have the dead end job. Also have a different opinion about education.

    47.1% of South African adults do not have matric

    Except you're here on the internet writing a coherent argument, reading other people's opinions, and communicating... skills that school taught you. Saying school was a complete waste ignores the basics it gave you: literacy, numeracy, critical thinking, communication, socialising, applying...

    The Rugby Thread - Part Deux

    Hopefully someone from Leinster gets cited and gives the Bulls a slight edge.

    The Rugby Thread - Part Deux

    Only real positive for the Stormers was Imad Khan had a great game. They had every opportunity to win this game and to get a home semi/final weeks prior, really feels like without SFM they have no hope.

    The Rugby Thread - Part Deux

    Bulls did everything they could to lose that but somehow won. Squeaked it.

    The official running thread™

    Nice that was me in 2017/2018 and I was fat for like 10 years, started running and haven't been over 80kgs since. The only thing I miss about being big was the strength I had. I could just pick up the heavy thing. Now I need to lift with the legs or think about how I need to tackle the heavy thing.
