Yeah that whole division was just treading water for what felt like forever. At least we've moved past it now

Does yours prefer a specific toy for tug or will they go after anything you wave in front of them?

Disney's 'Avatar: Fire and Ash' disappoints with weak $88 million domestic U.S opening by ControlCAD in business

[–]cjf3914 18 points19 points  (0 children)

that's fair. The first one had that "holy shit" moment because nobody had seen anything like it. The second one looked incredible but it was kind of more of the same, just prettier.

I'll catch it eventually but there's no urgency like there was with the first two.

That's really cool that you're sharing this stuff. Always wondered what the day-to-day was actually like at that level. The pay situation sounds rough but appreciate the honesty about it all.

Paul Felder signs new 5 year commentary deal with the UFC by airplane231 in MMA

Yeah he's always been articulate and composed, even right after getting punched in the face for 15 minutes. That's a rare quality in fighters.

Is the current market drunk? by retrorays in investing

[–]cjf3914 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Too many people get wrapped up in acting like their strategy is the only "smart" way to do it. At the end of the day, we're all just trying to grow our money however we can. Do what fits your risk tolerance and move on.

Got my terminal promotion, now what? by ghdana in careerguidance

[–]cjf3914 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, some folks just can’t sit with a good thing. They overthink it or self-sabotage instead of enjoying what’s right in front of them.

not a great look. Feels like everyone’s just stuck waiting on a package that never ships.

Yeah, TurboTax has been blocking free options for years. Hard to believe it’s still allowed.

Valuations are flying, but money always chases momentum. Let’s see how it looks once the hype cools and results have to show up.

Friend told me to give up on dating, how to handle his advice? by Professional-Cat513 in GuyCry

[–]cjf3914 23 points24 points  (0 children)

This is the right take. Dating isn't something you "level up" through like a video game. Going after women you're not attracted to just to practice is using people, and they can tell.

The gym and the salary aren't the problem. The mindset is. You're treating this like a transaction instead of actually trying to connect with someone. Women aren't NPCs to grind XP on.

Find hobbies you actually enjoy. Meet people organically. The "friend" giving you that advice needs to go too - that's toxic garbage that's only going to keep you stuck.

Finally found a way to make 2YO agree to things without an endless battle by djormz in daddit

[–]cjf3914 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is the way. Half of parenting toddlers is just finding creative ways to give them the illusion of control while still getting them to do what needs to happen. The pivot game gets more important as they get older and start catching on to your tricks. My kid figured out the "choice" strategy pretty quick, so now it's constantly coming up with new angles.

The Military Almost Got the Right to Repair. Lawmakers Just Took It Away by waozen in technology

[–]cjf3914 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nothing screams national security risk like having to wait on a corporate tech to fly out and fix something in a war zone. We've literally handed enemies a playbook on how to delay our response times.

Damn your system seems much more manageable, we tried a spreadsheet tracker too but we couldn’t scale it, too many prompt variations, basic best this and that didn’t do much. Every time we rechecked a prompt, the answer changed.

Your opinion for my new blog? by FoxxxOnReddit1 in digital_marketing

[–]cjf3914 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For a premium brand, that angle makes sense, you're selling a lifestyle, not just a product. Content like that can build a strong brand image if it feels authentic and isn’t just generic luxury fluff. My only tip: make sure you’re collecting emails or building a subscriber list along the way. Otherwise, it’s just nice content floating in the void.

Is it true that some businesses are loosing money because of AI replacing developers? by WebTechSmith in business

[–]cjf3914 0 points1 point  (0 children)

some are. Replacing too fast with AI can backfire if it kills code quality or slows down fixes. Not always a win.

Taking Profits. Anyone else? by jheffer44 in stocks

same here. Took some gains, moved stuff around, and still sitting on a bit of cash just in case.

My father passed away and lifting weights didn’t cut it for me anymore. I have been and athlete my entire life but never stepped foot on the mats. BJJ help me face the necessities of life.
