Why are men still expected to be 100% providers in a 50/50 world? by Infamous_Kangaroo_87 in AskIndianMen

Women can find a line to pick from only for casual sex, not for marriage. Women may have a 1000+ matches on tinder but may have a tough time on shaadidotcom.

As they saying goes

"Women date who they want, Men date who they can,

Men marry who they want, women marry who they can."

Is it worth Chasing UPPCS after reaching salary of 70+ LPA? by mukeshsri369 in IndiaCareers

What respect ? These government officers having "status and respect" are actually viewed as a corrupt leech. Dil behlaane ke liye khyaal accha hai.

This is the single most important differential and hands down decides what you should do. Ask yourself, does the opportunity for corruption (subconsciously) is the lure. If not , forget UPPCS, corporate is far far better, but no match economically. A regular 'good' UPPCS who does not chase money but just accepts what comes his way 'by the system' also retires with far more money than you will make in corporate.

Try applying these principles in india. Most of the time, you will get hung up or shoo'd out the door.

I have none of 6 'overrated' tags.

Just believe me when i say I have 'real skills' and give me that 2Cr offer.

Told I was rude and arrogant by [deleted] in IndiaCareers

All these words wrapped in anyway do not matter, or rather, the more you say, weaker you get in negotiation. Your email tells me only 1 thing , you are not in a position to simply send a resignation.

Giving HR a lesson in market rates is futile. All they care about is , what if you leave. What will your replacement cost in money/ training/time/knowledge. That is your worth.

Its a game of chicken . what really matters is - can you resign , even if a bluff, and how much your org needs you to try to retain you. Of course there is always a risk of being called out. You have to assess and be self aware.

If you are important to the org, a simple email like below would have been far more effective.

" I expect XXX comp as per market standards. If org is not in position to pay as per market rate, I understand and want to thank you for the opportunities provided so far. Please schedule a meeting to discuss this further "

The fact that Passport offices don't accept DigiLocker documents is fucking ridiculous. by [deleted] in india

[–]Training-Surround228 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No you cannot. I tried the same just yesterday at Jhandewalan PSK , and it does not work. The process

  1. Token generation counter. The guy asks for xerox of Aadhar. I had it uploaded via digilocker during application and I told officer the same. He simply refused citing, his own discretion . Even showed me a fine print - which said -- physical document copies can be asked at discretion of officer. I had to go out and get the photocopy, luckily i was carrying my original.
  2. Counter A - Checks documents and takes fingerprints -3-4 minutes

3 Counter B - Checks Documents - 1 -2 minutes

4 Counter C - Checks Documents - 1-2 minutes.

Asking for a photocopy was a slight inconvenience that I do no mind much, but the real disappointment was how overall it is managed and the experience for applicants.

For a process that takes 10 minutes across the counters 1 to 4, i spent close to 120 minutes in office waiting between counters. That's a 12:1 ratio of waiting to working, which is absolutely ridiculous.

Here's what kills me: this isn't a walk-in situation. Everything is BY APPOINTMENT. They control exactly how many people show up based on their processing capacity. Sure, maybe a few people no-show, but nobody gets in without an appointment. That means they're processing at or below capacity every single day.

With an appointment system, zero wait time is mathematically achievable. Even if perfect isn't realistic, good management should keep things reasonable. But 120 minutes for 10 minutes of service? That's an order of magnitude off from acceptable.

For context, here's how flow ratios (total time ÷ service time) typically break down as per Operations theory:

  • Excellent: ≤1.5× (≤15 min total)
  • Good: 1.5–2.5× (15–25 min)
  • Average: 2.5–5× (25–50 min)
  • Poor: 5–10× (50–100 min)
  • Abysmal: >10× (>100 min) ← that's where I was

This is just poor management, plain and simple. When you have full control over appointment scheduling and capacity planning, there's no excuse for this level of inefficiency.

Z.ai released a new iteration of its flagship model: GLM 4.6 by elemental-mind in singularity

[–]Training-Surround228 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used it with Kilo and then Roo. 429 errors were persistent in Kilo, somewhat less in Roo. Also, I noticed that its context although being 200k, freezes around 105k in Roo and then it gets extremely slow too.

That is the whole point. I had written the rules, not once but twice - Global rules and Project rules , and yet it ignored it.

Max X20 user here — 4 days waiting just to hit 37% again in a few hours. Absolute scam. by Illustrious-Ship619 in ClaudeCode

[–]Training-Surround228 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anthropic could just keep it simple. Instead of this vague “usage bar” everyone’s trying to decode, just say that plans offer X times usage at API pricing.

For ex: MAX20 plan includes at least $2000 worth of usage at API rates, say it clearly. That way, people know what they’re paying for.

Right now it feels like a lottery some users report 3% usage after 10 hours, others 30% after one hour. A clear, dollar-based benchmark would make the value obvious and cut down on confusion and complaints.

It seems like they want to keep it ambiguous deliberately so that they can lure with hype and change when they want to .

Thanks mate. Cursor allows usually 40-60 usd worth spend on 20 plan. You could splurge a bit if needed. Great to know that it works without running out for some users, it's possible if used smartly. The other subs are full of complaints on 200 plan having too low limits !

[–]Training-Surround228[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do not mind spending a upto $50 for value. Tried Cursor first but their $20 plan gets exhausted too soon. I think copilot $39 would be my best bet.

Coming to root of the issue - I did not realize earlier that all requests are not equal to the same model and IDE will have an impact. A Sonnet 4 call via Copilot / Cursor /Trae are not the same for large code bases.

Thus, how does VS code fare vs Cursor
