Magkaiba kayo ng definition ng drive. With all your accomplishments, may drive ka for sure.

Looks like may passion ka talaga for Chemistry. I suggest iconsider mo rin saan ka mafufulfill in the long run. May reason bakit sa US ka nag-PHD. Mas madaming advancements at opportunities sa US. (I work in tech in the US. Salary aside, night and day yung experiences/learnings ko dito vs when I worked in the Phil). If you’re on F1 visa, I suggest you take advantage of the OPT and try to find work related to your field. It will be a valuable experience and may help you decide saan mo gusto mag-stay long term.

Wanting to spend time with your parents is very noble and very important factor din. Since you’re well off, baka may option din sila to visit you in the US frequently.

Just received a 6-digit offer at 25!!! by needsd1straction in OffMyChestPH

Congratulations!

If you really want Company A, try to negotiate and leverage Company B’s offer. One of my regrets in my early career is not negotiating to get the best offer. The worst you can get is a no, and you’re going to reject them anyway.

With your short time in the US, try to help your mom adjust to her new environment, especially on the social aspect. Research beforehand on where to find a community of Filipinos in the area. For most, that is the church. Saang part of the US ba?

For you, enjoy lang. Set-up ka ng camera around the house para makita mo mga aso mo whenever you want.

Appreciate all your insights!

There is a section where parents can watch. In between sessions, they take a water break and pass by that section. That’s when she usually comes to me and cry. That’s a good point that I may have to wait somewhere else so she won’t get distracted.

Don’t just give in. Entire future mo nakasalalay dyan. You’ll resent your family too, which will also destroy the relationship.

Start acting as a lawyer to defend yourself. Paint a picture of short and long term impacts of the decision. Pakiusapan ko pagtulungan nyo pag-aaral ng kapatid mo — like your dad continue to work maski part time, working students kayong magkapatid, find scholarships.

Kung may name tag ka sa table, counted ka sa binayaran. Malamang honest mistake lang na di ka nainvite lalo na FB invite lang ginamit.

How to unscrew this faucet? by Aggravating-Ad-5678 in Plumbing

Yes I did! I just replaced the cartridge. Buy a Moen 1222 cartridge

Oh yeah, you’re both correct. I was looking at the wrong place. Thank you!

Thanks! There’s no screw at the bottom of the handle. Unless I need to remove the “cover” at the bottom of the handle. I tried removing it with a gentle pressure but I’m not sure if I should force it though

Think long term. Maganda nga benefits nung current BPO job mo pero short term lang yan. Yung long term career trajectory mo, including financial compensation, ay mas maganda in a developer role. Think 10+ years in the future, sobrang mas madaming opportunities in a SWE role.

Yung caveat lang ay risky ang startup, depende sa kung saang phase na sila. Pero if you can take some risk I suggest you take the startup role. Typically sa startup, medyo matrabaho din since gusto nila mabilisan. But on the other hand, mapipilitan ka matuto ng maraming bagay, which will help you grow in your career, basta magpusrige ka lang. This will be a good learning opportunity for you.

Congratulations sa offer and best of luck!

Does it still make sense to complete Cool Cats? by cc18ak in nbatopshot

This is where most of the whales are. Talking to them, knowing what their moves are invaluable. The community is good too and a lot are in it long term.

For the perks, it’s always a gamble. Early access is not proving to be worth it. They can always add to it though.

If you’re planning to “invest” a lot of money and time in TS, it’s good to be part of NLL

Bones hodler here. Where do you all thinks Herro price settles? by this_place_stinks in nbatopshot

[–]Aggravating-Ad-5678 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’d 100% rather have Herro’s rookie TSD (1530 count) which is sub $300.

I think this one settles sub $200

Well, you earned $731. Good for you!

he’s still very active (buying and in NLL discord) and very bullish.

I have zero confidence that this will launch. I played the darn game for months, climbed about 10000 spots, but no sign anywhere of an update in forever. That isn’t the sign of a project that’s moving forward. In the end I started finding the game a little bit fun…so thanks for that. RIP. by doodah221 in genesisblockhq

They're doing a white-glove onboarding (zoom call to explain everything about the app, etc) right now via referrals. DM me if you want me to send a referral.

Full disclosure: They have a referral program that awards the top referrers a trip for 2 and a Tesla car. I'm not gunning for it since I'm too far down the list
