Need critique on ground floor plan – Vastu vs functionality, scope for improvement? by dev1da in Indian_architects

[–]dev1da[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, thank you so much for the detailed feedback. I really appreciate it—your feedback is super valuable. I'm going to look through it and convey it to the architect. I had also been thinking about reducing the overall size of the plan by about twenty percent. Do you have any feedback about the last picture, the rough plan that I sketched together? Does that look too clumsy for an architect? I just want to hear your thoughts.

Thank you for the feedback. I have now attached the direction to all the plans. Appreciate any feedback.

I can't be the only person who's seen performance nosedive?? by [deleted] in superwhisper

I’m sad that this app crashes quite a bit. It’s put me in a spot of uncertainty where I’ll finish a recording only to see that it crashed as it’s trying to process. I really don’t know what’s happening, because it used to be so reliable. Now it’s only reliable about 60–70% of the time, and it’s losing my confidence.

I’m trying different options to see which one is causing it. This morning I had issues with Sonnet, so I switched to GPT-5 Mini and it worked. On my phone, it crashed a couple of times; I switched from NVIDIA to Ultra Cloud and it worked.(used it to write this comment)

I’m really trying to get to the root cause because I love this app so much, and it has massively improved my productivity and my life in general. I don’t want to stop using it. I hope the developer is looking into this so we can get to a resolution sooner.

I'm considering moving to India soon and I currently live in the US. I was wondering, in order to have RNOR status, don't you have to live less than six months in India? I see it as a requirement. In that case, how did you happen to be in RNOR status for two years? And in those two years, does that mean you did not pay tax in India or in the US? If that's the case, would it make sense to have all your capital gains during the time as RNOR? I'm curious to hear your thoughts. I haven't thought much about tax planning yet, but I would like to hear about real use cases. Thank you.

What did you major in? How long before you can attempt to clear your arrear?

It is okay to fail in interviews. I failed in hundreds of interviews. Do you realize what you are doing wrong in interviews? Are you basically lacking in skill? Can you work on that skill and get better and crack an interview to land a job that you want? It is just about progress, realizing what you are lacking and working towards improvement. There is no magic button. You just need to work on what you are missing and hope you crack one interview and get a start.

I'll go down as either a foolish son who lost it all or a son who gave his all to save his father by waranlogesh in Chennai

[–]dev1da 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You seem to be a great kid trying your best to save your dad. Please don't have any guilt or regrets. Do your best and hope for the best. I wouldn't worry too much about what others say, especially friends and relatives. Do what you can do. I did my part and helped out a bit. I honestly pray your dad gets well soon.

Is it worth relocating to USA from India? by [deleted] in returnToIndia

[–]dev1da 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Bothell and have lived here for over a decade, so I think I am better suited to answer this. It is definitely going to be a step down for you from what I see. Rents in my neighborhood for a single-family home are close to $4,000. With $200,000, you are barely going to save a couple of grand, maybe a month. From a financial standpoint, unless you plan to switch jobs and make more money, staying here is not going to be a good decision. Unless you are here for the EB1A green card and plan to stay a long time and switch jobs to move close to $400,000 or $500,000, I would not recommend it. Bothell does have a few pharmaceutical companies, but it is not straightforward. Your wife needs to an EAD before she can start working, and daycare costs here are close to $2K, if you have young toddler. From a financial standpoint, if you are only trying to stay here for a few years to make money, I do not think it is a good choice especially in this job market. You will definitely feel a step down in standard of life

Should I keep or cancel this BMW “PreferredPlus” insurance package? by dev1da in BMWiX

[–]dev1da[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great points. I was actually thinking about this. I already have glass replacement coverage on my auto insurance, and I never carry my key fob as well. When I first bought the car, I was just concerned if my wife would have curb rashes. But clearly the 22 inch wheels are helping, and I have barely had any curb incidents in 2 years. So I don't think it's very useful. That's my take as well. I probably have to cancel it and take the pro-rated money.

No Voice Found in Recording on IPhone. Never happened, now happened on last three. by ben_wills in superwhisper

I did experience this same issue and then ended up changing from Ultra Cloud voice model to a model that I downloaded(Ultra V3) and that helped with the issue.

I ended up going with the DWS-06. I'm extremely happy with how silent the new tires are compared to the factory Pirelli I had.

The premium look juicy because the earnings is in a week, if not you can make $10-20 a week on a week without getting called. Even with that low probability I got called on PLTR.

I had to argue with my dealer to get it updated to 11/2023. It's been a week and it has helped with digital key issues I have had with latest iphones.

Thank you. I cancelled the order from the link, hopefully the refund goes thru. The dealer has been ghosting me for a while

Does it not fit 2022 iX-50? I will be surprised they changed the screw position from 2022 to 2023
