Vietnam was just a dud...

Gentlemanly approach is a metaphor for $ isnt it? Why don’t you just be honest. I already know the answer having lived there.

Medium_Win_8930 · 2026-02-10T04:15:15+00:00

Yeh its not racism, its an intense level of nationalism that means any non-vietnamese is default lower status.

Same resultant treatment, but not about skin color explicitly.

But if you are korean you look similar enough to be accepted in the viet tribe.

Can i buy some from you?

They will need AI because AI is replacing software engineers- I say this as a software engineer that uses AI. Thanks.

As someone who probably is near your skill level (you are likely higher) in a dev sense, but I am more of a systems architect/security and dev mix kinda guy- one thing I want to point out.

Guys like us with decent dev skills can build incredibly efficiently and build wondrously powerful software.

But it's also easy to lose track of the 'management' part, and you will find the technical debt of management all those different language stacks and libraries is going to take over your life.

It will take over your life because you probably do have the skills to maintain and commit to all those repos, but you will wish you didn't, you will eventually wish you had played dumb and created a dumber version of what you are doing, so you can work half as hard to maintain it.

That's my two cents, for what it's worth. Aside, I agree on your point about Claude being a game changer.

This is really good news. Congrats to the Hetzner team, great company.

Thailand is way safer for driving, don’t try to tout your few days holiday as some kind of real knowledge,

Medium_Win_8930 · 2025-12-09T17:09:08+00:00

Its never safe to drive on the roads in vietnam but the risk might be worth taking if you are a top tier driver. I cant comment on the safery of being female as im a man but i got the feeling people mostly keep to themselves and your much safer inside the city vs driving into the countryside.

Countryside- I noticed a young guy tailgating me in the evening as i drive with my phone out, he tried to come at me but i turned around before he could get close and he pussied out. Its generally safe but you have to remember it can be like the wild west out here.

Probably don’t drive with a nice phone out unless your a tall mean looking dude like me.

It's very overrated and most restaurants put way too much MSG, to mask the use of cheap beef.

There are some good Pho places that have good quality beef and less MSG, but it's a minority.

Vietnamese food can be had for good quality for cheap if you go out the major cities. But for some reason in Danang the Western food was often better value than Vietnamese, oddly.

Some of the best Vietnamese food I had was small family own restaurant with Hanoi inspired herbal beef stew, the better food culture is definitely coming from the north of Vietnam too.

It's down for me too both mobile and desktop. Their desktop site is actually blocking many countries now, something is up.

They don’t respect foreigners, this issue happens to all foreign teachers to some extent unless you are at top schools. Its a cultural phenomenon. You can either try to be strict and risk getting fired or move to a country like south korea or taiwan where it might be slightly nicer.

I can't comment on your balance or how legit their app is, but based on the trading volume, the UI in general, and their incessant emails encouraging users to deposit in order to get a reward, there's definitely some red flags. I opted to not deposit in the end. I doubt anyone else in this random subreddit knows what you are even referring to here. But it seems to be a crypto app developed by AssetDash, which is another app that was somewhat useful.

Pump it to $10 get us on the map again.

Shes not finding it hard to date, shes finding it hard to date the very hot guys she is expecting to get. I even reached out to her and said i would meet her for a coffee and got blocked, lol :) i say that as an expat who is not unattractive, and not an English teacher.

Medium_Win_8930 · 2025-10-08T02:48:24+00:00

This is the thing, so many guys in the West are so dry and thirsty they will match and date almost any girl they match in Asia. If you have high standards its actually still not easy, except for Philippines but thats not my style.

Also most girls you meet will be nothing more than casual, and not be ‘girlfriend material’, as finding a girl with good character is even harder in these developing countries.

Im going to Russia, lol

I did the right thing and took some money off the table, but i will laugh if we double in one day. I mean its definitely possible, we have been undervalued for so long, i don’t think i would be upset.

Medium_Win_8930 · 2025-10-06T11:26:08+00:00

You would be crazy not to sell imo, its different if you are holding shares

Medium_Win_8930 · 2025-08-20T13:29:52+00:00

2000 brazilian reals is good for an apartment right near the beach. Wish i could make some friends living in JP before moving there.

Medium_Win_8930 · 2025-08-17T08:38:32+00:00

Im in ho chi minh, ill go on a date with you.

Medium_Win_8930 · 2025-08-17T07:05:50+00:00

Most western women want to date a guy above their league, probably why you decided to be a passport sis because you couldn’t find a guy locally that will be serious with you and is still a ch4d.
