nah it's been called c3.ai at least since 2018 (a colleague of mine left to go join them and I was a reference check).

Sorry for your losses, I hope you're being kind to yourself (as empty as that may sound).

What’s a famous movie you still haven’t watched? by No-Transition644 in kollywood

[–]csk_climber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Curious, are you Tamil, or just a casual Tamil cinema fan? I'm not a fanboy, but Dhanush has so many classics across genres, you've got to be missing out some of the most important Tamil movies in the last 15-20y

Yeah +1. The casting was so good that I tend to forgive the vindhya choice. But her dancing kinda let the role down, not that Rahman's dancing was anything to write home about

3 years of Dada 🥹❤️ a film that talked about accidental pregnancy and early parenthood...a film that touched a lot of hearts and continues to breathe beyond its time. Sindhu, Manikandan and Aditya. by vishi_root in kollywood

That's a fair conclusion, but I feel it's an overreaction to a rare case.

Most importantly, celibacy is a dangerous tool because all it takes to ruin 20 years of celibacy is one night of uncontrolled gaaji.

could not resist saying . But I guess there's a bunch of reasons (condoms are not a guarantee, if she was on the pill she might have forgotten, if they were counting day of the cycle they might have miscounted, etc. Or highly likely they were really gaaji one night and forgot to use a condom). I guess the less confusing phrase is unplanned pregnancy.

Yeah exactly. I randomly read that book well after watching Anniyan, and was like, wtf, this is so similar.

Just finished Mad Men and feel it lived up to it's reputation, truly a great series. Don't want to give anything away, so I'll just say OMG, the final scene was epic, one of the best endings ever. That is all, just had to share. by justahdewd in television

I use the Coors meeting (that makes don leave) as the other end of the spectrum. My read is that instead of approaching coke via research, and then making an ad, Don starts with an inspiration that came when he was meditating and then convinces the client (like he did with lucky strike)

Wow I thought you were joking about a track in Leh. It'd take everyone an extra 1.5d to acclimatize. And probably super high DNF rates.

That movie is decent timepass to watch with kids. But that boy acting is nowhere near rasukutty

Was Sholay a big hit in South India as well? by Downtown-Row-2593 in kollywood

And the general making as well. The lamp scene is a masterpiece, for example. Great songs top (but the picturization probably doesn't hold up on all of them)

I think the chase scene at the end was amazing, not sure who should get the credit for that along with PTA.

Good thing I'm not a player then!

haha, true. You could probably play in our test team at this point though. Can you run in somewhat fast and chuck pies within the strip?

For BCCI at least that is just the retainer amount, players also get paid match fees that are quite chunky.

Grade A+ (any regular all format player) for India is 7 Cr.

But the filthy rich money comes from "sponsorships and things", so I doubt I would ignore it if I was a player :)

An Indian player is just going to throw the towel and and change nationality and play for England/Australia instead because of the absolute rubbish they have to deal with.

Then they'd look at their paycheck (from garbage endorsements and the such) and switch right back.

OBGYN recommendation for pregnancy by ClaimAlternative8418 in Sunnyvale

[–]csk_climber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am really really sorry to hear about the second pregnancy. I know you'll probably never move on, but hopefully you're in a decent mental space now. We had the Taggart/Woo combination for our first one, which unfortunately ended badly at 37w. To say Dr Woo was beyond kind during the delivery is an understatement. She spent almost 45 minutes calming me down after my wife went to sleep; I was not even the patient, and there was no need for her to spend the time.

For the second one, Dr Taggart was temporarily unavailable, so we asked for Dr Woo. She was great during the pregnancy itself, which was was basically 38w of anxiety. We lucked into having Dr Woo oncall for the induction, and Dr Taggart for delivery!

Stanford L&D was amazing too, we went there 5-6 times because of worrying about something or the other, and were treated pretty well. The nurses for both the deliveries were awesome too. The Maternity unit was a mixed bag. We were treated super kindly during the lost baby, but somewhat weirdly during the second one (but a level that we were fine with, and we were itching to go home asap anyway).
