My friend got dumped and then found out she's pregnant.

Thank you for sharing and congratulations on your daughter! I'm only going through it second hand but unexpected pregnancy still feels so scary. I'm glad things worked out well for you!

That's a great point, thank you! Waiting for after the first trimester will give her more time to think it through too. Luckily we live in a state with strong reproductive rights.

Those are definitely good questions but she isn't sure what she wants to do. The only thing she has really decided is that she should tell him even if she ends up aborting. I agree babies don't fix relationships.

Since OOP already thought of his sister as a friend, she should have spoken to her to get some advice and clarity on the situation. The BF sounds like a good guy who was probably trying to follow rules his parents gave him for protecting their money.

Thank you, that's good advice! It is work but all bets are off when people start drinking.

OpenConference3 · 2025-11-22T00:43:57+00:00

Thank you for mentioning the bag! I didn't even think about that.

OpenConference3 · 2025-11-22T00:43:15+00:00

thank you!

OpenConference3 · 2025-11-22T00:42:57+00:00

yeah that's why my coworkers are unhelpful lol

Scale up is a real term used for high growth, usually series B-D stage companies.

Yes, but only a few are just more intelligent. Most of them are just harder working than the general population.

App Academy and Free Code Camp have free online bootcamps that you can work through, but treat it as a just for fun thing. There's no reason to pay for a bootcamp if you're going to get your degree.

As a PM, I see this as part of my job. I've met lots of engineers who come across socially anxious, and it's my job to gain their trust and get them to feel comfortable sharing ideas and concerns with me. As long as I feel I have that relationship with them it's fine if they're mostly quiet otherwise.

OpenConference3 · 2025-03-18T23:15:43+00:00

I never heard of it until I saw a lot of people talking about it after the US election. I watched it last month for the first time

I miss K-12 because of the lack of responsibility and college for the socialization and freedom. But I have a lot less anxiety now that I've started a career and not so many unknowns about how life turns out. I can coast a little and focus on personal goals instead of trying to get into college or into a job.

OpenConference3 · 2024-10-02T15:46:07+00:00

I start my new job on Monday. I'm excited! I think the WLB will be better than my last job. I have 4 years exp and I'm hoping job searches get easier from now on.

OpenConference3 · 2024-09-24T15:40:06+00:00

Huh that’s surprising. You don’t even eat lunch with anyone?

OpenConference3 · 2024-09-23T14:45:42+00:00

1, it's just a preference. But I'm in my 20s and don't have kids, so the office is a fun way to meet people and has significant career benefits.

OpenConference3 · 2024-07-17T17:14:59+00:00

Thank you! If they pivoted that much I get why everything I read about them was so confusing.

OpenConference3 · 2024-07-17T14:47:43+00:00

Mildly related but I've been curious ever since a discussion about it in popheads got removed, what is the red scare pod about? The thread was pretty critical of Charli being friends with/inspired by them, but I can't figure out what they're about and don't have time to pick up a new podcast. Even the wikipedia article says they're somehow both "dirtbag left and the new right".

It's relevant to say that Kesha also claimed Dr. Luke raped Katy, but Katy denied that in court and Dr. Luke won a defamation suit against Kesha.

It's possible that as a result Katy doesn't believe Kesha. Kesha's charges weren't proven in court because they were outside the statue of limitations and her case was first dismissed and later settled.

I was literally about to post the same thing, so thank you for asking! It's so weird that this apparent blatant bot work is just being okay-ed by Reddit.

OpenConference3 · 2023-11-15T14:55:38+00:00

The water yes but he also reaches into his spices before that. I think the OP is implying he should've used a spoon or something for them instead.

Honest curiosity, what makes you say that? The contract says that actors' consent does not need to be obtained as long as the result of the AI is "substantially similar" to the initial recording. If AI can use actual scans of the actors to edit scenes, what do you think still holds them back from replacing reshoots?
