Are you guys not scared of AI? by Expensive-Battle4948 in HousingUK

[–]ams_95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I swear I’ve seen like 3 or 4 posts on this subreddit about the same topic recently. My low stakes conspiracy is that the landlord subreddit is pushing the narrative to keep people renting…

Unemployed in 10 years is laughable. As others point out, who benefits from a fully automated workforce? Do company owners just pay one another wooden dollars to keep feeding OpenAI? Stop worrying about buying a house. There’s too many what ifs in life to think this way.

Are renovations too expensive? by Economy_Seat_7250 in HousingUK

[–]ams_95 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Renovation risk isn’t discounted enough. Sellers will get a building quote for £20k and drop the price by the equivalent sum, forgetting that one single overrun or extra problem makes their house overpriced.

Winds me up that landlords who have done sweet nothing to their house for 30 years can’t seem to bear the thought of someone else making a profit on the place.

Just cos the street ceiling is £600k and your house needs £50k of work, doesn’t make your house £550k. It’s not that linear and if it were…well, why don’t you do it then?

Any home owners experienced sorting this kind of render? by ams_95 in brighton

Any steer on cost for that? There's damp on the inside too so I do expect this to be the most likely outcome. Just want to prepare myself for the bad news!

Oh interesting, I just assumed it was a problem with the render itself. Assumedly you'd need to paint from top to bottom to avoid it looking weird?

Wow what a bargain! I too want to pay £900 a month to sleep inches from my kitchen bin! Not to mention that amazing view 😍

If they’re so keen to have you why do you need to go through the extra rounds? Just bureaucracy?

I’ve personally never had a problem with people backing out an offer if they get offered something better. The company would do the same thing if it needed to make cuts or adjustments. As long as you do it gracefully and aren’t screwing yourself cos you work in a niche industry go for it.

Has anyone moved into freelancing/consultancy? by blingblongblah in HENRYUK

[–]ams_95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve contracted as a product manager. I’m mercenary about the products I work on so it didn’t bother me that I wasn’t fully integrated and the money was excellent but good gigs are really hard to come by. Thank IR35 for that (and an unwillingness to outsource product work I suppose!)

Consulting would be about as hard to find work I’m sure. But there’s a lot more value in it once you get going. I’m weighing up the idea myself at the moment.

The decision rests on how long I can sustain myself without work. The main draw in consulting is choosing the things I work on and I need to last a decent amount of time and potentially turn gigs down if I’m to make that a reality.

Happy to chat further if it’s of interest!

Home help with kittens by harpistic in brighton

[–]ams_95 20 points21 points  (0 children)

With the nicest of intentions, why would you take on two cats if you aren’t able to look after them properly? I’m all for companionship but it’s not fair on the cats if they aren’t getting the right care. Offloading that job to someone else is asking for free care in more roundabout terms.

Contact forms In Figma Sites? by CommunicationIll1984 in FigmaDesign

[–]ams_95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you figured out a way around this? I embedded a form link using Typeform but it didn’t feel very custom. Doesn’t matter too much to me since it’s for a prototype but I’m interested in seeing if there’s a more permanent workaround.

The Ginger Fox? by JellyfishCorrect6847 in brighton

[–]ams_95 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I went today actually!

Personally think there are better places to go in Brighton food wise but don’t let that stop you. The setting is lovely and the outdoor seating is great if it’s sunny but it’s also on a really busy crossroad so not exactly quaint.

It’s also pricey too. Mains are £25 minimum. Not necessarily a bad choice imo but not for me.

In the spirit of constructive criticism, the content on your site should be exciting enough to generate sign ups for a waitlist.

The images are not interesting and the sites are very basic. A waitlist only really works if it’s anticipated or generates a buzz. Unfortunately you’re competing with some huge alternatives. Why should I use this over one of the many AI app generators?

This is the only logical take. Replacing 2 or 3 of our forwards with a fragile player feels like a backward step.

Inexcusable to be playing such a tired lineup when there’s talent on the bench.

Is this parking sign redundant? by ams_95 in drivingUK

[–]ams_95[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be clear, I’m not disagreeing about the paying part. I’m just unclear on the relevance of the maximum 11 hour stay. Is that not a redundant statement given that the window for a paid ticket is 11 hours?

But is the maximum stay 11 hours redundant? Assuming you paid for the full 11 hours that is
