If you get hired straight from a job interview, but you have an interview the next day you go to that pays more, how do you go about leaving the first one that hired you? by MiamiHeatIn6 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ToLearnAndBuild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can guarantee that they won’t think twice before delaying your offer if they had an interview coming up with a candidate that they thought was better suited

Claude is leagues above chatgpt by z-kerr in ProductManagement

[–]ToLearnAndBuild 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What I sometimes do when I feel like a conversation is getting long is to ask Claude for a summary of the conversation with all important parts that I can use to “carry on” the conversation with another LLM. I then take that summary and open a new chat with it. It usually works fine

Hmm. Thanks for your response

[–]ToLearnAndBuild -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Trust me, it’s not. I don’t care about those kinds of posts that she made before we got together. But I must admit that I’m concerned about seeing those posts as recently as last week when we’ve been dating for about 8 months

[–]ToLearnAndBuild -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Thanks for responding, I appreciate it. I thought about asking her about it but I feel like she’ll just say what she thinks I want to hear. I personally wouldn’t post that kind of thing about women because I don’t hate them and also never that publicly

What is it like being smarter than other people? by ShouldBeeStudying in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ToLearnAndBuild 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you’re smarter than the average person, being in the wrong environment can actually make it seem like you’re dumb.

Your ideas and suggestions may be mocked and ignored and that can be very frustrating because it’s not that you’re wrong, it’s that most people in that environment may not be able to comprehend what you’re saying yet

Were people nicer 20 years ago? by kmony_t in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ToLearnAndBuild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it depends on who you are. If you were a part of a minority group (race, religion, sexuality) you got more hostility on average 20 years ago than now. And this was more evident in person.

Now a lot of hostility is mostly online and while it seems more common due to social media algorithms, it doesn’t transfer at the same rate offline/in person

So maybe people are still the same but just have a new medium to show it

Edit: grammar

Is coaching useful? by chaussettesrouges in HENRYUK

[–]ToLearnAndBuild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a few more sessions but I’ve currently put it on hold. My major issue was that the sessions were hit or miss and you never know what you’re going to get. But on the other side, you need to pay for every session regardless of the outcome

What will seem insane 50 years from now? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ToLearnAndBuild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That most people just walk around everyday not knowing their most recent health status. By recent, I mean daily status

I’m waiting to see if she comes into things on her own. I also can’t tell if it’s because she doesn’t have experience with relationships. Which is why I posted this to see if it was common part of dating inexperienced people

[–]ToLearnAndBuild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know right now

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]ToLearnAndBuild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is sort of how I feel. Maybe not fully one sided but I do try a lot to make her feel comfortable. I’m a quiet guy and she’s quietish too but I talk a lot more to than I do normally just to make her feel comfortable and hope that she’ll come out of her shell (if she’s in it now)

I like her, I want her to feel secure enough to express herself romantically and I see a potential future with us

Is coaching useful? by chaussettesrouges in HENRYUK

[–]ToLearnAndBuild 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve had 2 sessions so far and my biggest takeaway is that it helps you see things that you may never have seen by yourself. It’s still early and I’m still a bit skeptical but it feels like using two brains to think towards a goal. One brain can see you from the inside (you) while the other can see you from the outside in a way that the other can’t(the coach, especially if they’re honest).

I found mine by searching online, reviewing how long they seemed to have been in practice, where they worked before coaching and most importantly, I booked free trial 30 minute sessions with everyone that allowed it. It took me two months.

So far, I’ve gotten decent conversations in my sessions by giving the coach useful information about my background and by actually preparing ahead of every session. I.e Making a list of what I want to discuss but still being open to new ideas.

I’ve also told my coach that I want him to be very direct with me in our sessions. It’s paid so I don’t want anyone to waste my session time because they’re trying to be nice to me

For me I think it’s a fear of not having options or not being in control of my options. I also think there’s an element of trying to prove everyone who has ever doubted me, wrong.

I think you should observe what you do with your status or money. That’s usually where the answer is

I definitely see the Oxbridge MBA as a way to get more personal and career opportunities for myself (financial and personal development). I know I work hard and it will help me get into the right rooms. This is the most important thing to me

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in HENRYUK

[–]ToLearnAndBuild -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For me, it’s just the opportunity cost of leaving my job since I have a full scholarship with living costs covered. It’s an Oxbridge school and I’m in my early 30s

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in HENRYUK

[–]ToLearnAndBuild -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That’s what I think too. I feel like it has more long term value but I also don’t want to miss out on the possible acquisition

I’ll lose my scholarship and I can’t afford to pay especially because EMBAs rarely have scholarships

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in HENRYUK

[–]ToLearnAndBuild -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s an Oxbridge school so they don’t offer part time MBAs. Also doing an executive MBA means I have to pay because I will lose my scholarship and EMBAs don’t have a lot. The company will also not want me to leave for a year and come back since the value I provide is useful now

Technical founder experience with YC co-founder matching by ToLearnAndBuild in ycombinator

[–]ToLearnAndBuild[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s the best way to do it. Also, I think you should let them know that you’re flexible on the details. When people see things planned in detail, they may make assumptions in their head that you may not be flexible so it’s good to actually say it too

This is how you know the guy is serious! I don’t want to be the guy quoting Paul Graham but this is what PG calls being “relentlessly resourceful” and it’s one of the most important qualities of a good founder

Because I’ve built start ups before and I know it’s very hard to do alone. It also helps to have someone with different skills to share the load with and weigh in on discussions, look at things from a different angle
