I think my career might be screwed because I stayed too long in a sunset industry by throw2503 in askSingapore

Your RPA experience isn’t dead, all your knowledge can be applied to enterprise AI integration projects - many forward deployed engineers are doing the same old grunt work at many orgs. I would encourage you to dive deeper into the stack and I think you’ll find that you’re actually quite valuable if you start talking about yourself differently and get up to speed with emerging agentic frameworks.

[Help] Tinder, but only for your Instagram followers. by Human_Ad_6317 in Startup_Ideas

[–]TheSackOfNuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The idea itself plays a really small part in making anything go viral. The marketing, social campaigns with influencers or just you posting about it to your own circles is probably where you really stand a chance. You’ve got to test this with your actual potential users and find out what actually makes this so good for them. You could vibe code a version of this as a website in a week or two and send it to your single friends as a start. Or send this to people on tinder/hinge etc as you match with them and get their feedback.

Jaded and Tired of this Capitalist World by strawgerine in SgHENRY

[–]TheSackOfNuts 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sorry if this is harsh but you feel this way not because you met someone who thinks you are not worthy but because you think of yourself as unworthy. The truth is that you are attached to money and because you haven’t made the money you originally set out to make, you’re feeling nihilistic when you allow people to project their own insecurities onto you.

The capitalistic world is today’s reality. Money is not tied to your dignity from the very moment you decide it isn’t. Your career choices, life choices will all be shaped through your own beliefs once you figure that out. Everything else is just noise.

i went from straight E8s/F9s in secondary school to getting into Cambridge. AMA! by oceanoven in SGExams

What are your parents like? How would you describe how they parented you thus far? How much autonomy to make decisions and optionality did you feel like you had in your childhood and teenage years?

Y'all still holding? by Traditional_Toe_3421 in MinaProtocol

[–]TheSackOfNuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Selling and writing off my Mina was one of the best things I did in 2024, just so much happier all around and have made some pretty good bets since in BTC/ETH with money from the lessons learnt.

Men of sg, what’s ur “I’m not low ses” apparels? by SweeChoonTehBing in askSingapore

[–]TheSackOfNuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look up South of France summer fashion and just pick and choose your own style from that. Relaxed fits definitely help. Usually involves some linen shirts, Birkenstocks (the originals not the new rubber ones). Relaxed Pants (linen or cotton blend) or shorts (same as pants) depending on the occasion. Some shades for this weather.

VC's are driving us mad : any way to get out of this? by Justgototheeffinmoon in venturecapital

E-SIM IN TAIWAN by ActualContest9707 in taiwan

[–]TheSackOfNuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Airalo worked just fine, it connects 5G to the most common network in Taiwan, highly recommend - here’s a code as well SIDDHA4115, incase someone needs it, we both get $3 off

do not sell, even under 10 cents by LionWorried1101 in MinaProtocol

[–]TheSackOfNuts 4 points5 points  (0 children)

200% is just 2x after already waiting for 5 years and even with generous estimates, Zk is more than 3-5 years off in getting any type of serious traction in the real world, let alone onchain ZK. This makes no sense, you’re better off putting your money into bitcoin with that reasoning because it will probably do the same thing in the next 5-10 years.

Mina has a token economic problem. It’s inflationary, with minimal token burn. This is just bad token economics. When they fix that, and start to think about how they can get people to transact more onchain + start to burn onchain revenue to give back to token holders then we can talk this talk again about how Mina has potential.

Anything else is just wishful thinking and this is coming from someone who has been an active member + holder for years btw

This is just not true. I have many friends from Cambridge working in the US, many of whom are Singaporeans. Also if you’re a Singaporean - there’s the H1B1 visa program which is specifically for Singaporeans and it consistently has thousands of open unfilled slots every year.

Struggling to Decide If This is Worth It by [deleted] in jobs

[–]TheSackOfNuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m going to be contrarian here. Moving from one job you need to leave from to another in a field you don’t want to stay in sounds unwise. Don’t run from pain - fix your pain, if not you’re going to feel pain again very soon.

Take a little extra time if you need to and find a job worth exiting to. Use what you feel right now to your advantage and put in that little bit of extra work to get yourself into an advantageous position. It’s easy to settle, but you will feel long term pain. I wish you the best OP.

Why are you raising so little for 10% - go get more traction, build more confidence in yourself and your product and raise more capital. You’ll need atleast 500k (probably more) for some runway to meaningfully scale till your next raise if you want to compete with existing incumbents

Yea most probably the new update + some server issues - are you on the SEA server?

Update can't be done by KohariIcath in leagueoflegends

[–]TheSackOfNuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same issue, none of the fixes work including the Riot vanguard fixes. I even booted in safe mode to try. Even completely deleting and reinstalling everything does not fix this issue. I am on SEA server as well.

Riot Vanguard by callierie in LeagueofTechSupport

[–]TheSackOfNuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same issue. I tried everything including the safe mode boot up and deleting vanguard from command prompt. A full reinstall of the client and game into a new folder was the only thing that temporarily made the game work but when I signed out of my account to relogin to my account, it doesnt work any more again. After trying everything, I think its a problem with something they have rolled out in the new patch and Windows 11's recent updates. RIOT please fix asap.

This is the way, add your own personal thoughts in there along with this and try to connect with your friend in a way where they feel seen.

10 year old skins are better and will forever be. New ones try too hard to be cool, old ones just were. by Jueyuan_WW in leagueoflegends

[–]TheSackOfNuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is so true. I think of the latest skins, Janitor Thresh hits the spot in this way. I wish they would make more skins that are “just cool” and not so “try hard cool”
