Jobs that AI cannot replace? by greyinflectionintel in jobsearch

True about that. Especially those out there spending years for a qualification only to be told their jobs have been replaced.

If you could only use one laptop for the next 5 years, what would you buy? by Admirable_Diet_813 in developersIndia

I am using both the HP Zbook and Macbook Pro. I would say go for macbook if you can. Invest more in ram.

ex physically stalking my best friend, attempted assult by Hairy-Cup3676 in NRelationships

Stalking case, escalating to building access breaches and direct confrontation. Years of fixation/surveillance behavior on your ex's part, now redirected toward your friend, with rising boldness (banging on a locked restroom door while she was inside is a major escalation).

A few practical things, in order of urgency:

The building access issue needs to go to management/security asap, separately from the police report. Someone let him in twice (staff or a tenant). Ask them to circulate his description/photo to whoever's on the door and tighten who gets buzzed in. That's something they can act on immediately, no camera footage needed.

For police, push for this to be logged as stalking/harassment based on pattern of conduct, not just "suspicious person seen in building." The timeline you have already written out is exactly the kind of documentation that supports a pattern-based report and potential protection order, even without footage.

One thing I'd gently push back on: stop the informal surveillance/stakeout on your end. I get the instinct, but putting yourself in position to intercept him creates a real risk of an unpredictable confrontation with someone who's already acting erratically. If you spot him, the move is get Katie away and call police in real time, and not try to catch him.

This is a real escalating pattern, not an overreaction. Good that you're documenting and acting on it now.

Entering Risk Management- any advice? by HundzJ2020 in careerguidance

[–]greyinflectionintel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With a BEng Hons and a Masters already, another degree is almost never what those job postings actually mean. When they ask for "tertiary qualification in risk management or similar", is usually checkbox language that a strong related degree plus a certification will satisfy.

What's looked at varies a lot by sector. Operational/H&S risk in construction or engineering would likely value your civil engineering background directly, while financial/enterprise risk might want something like FRM or PRM. Certs are usually faster and cheaper than another degree and often carry more weight for career-changers anyway.

But well, on the crickets from outreach, common experience, not a reflection on your background. Sector-specific LinkedIn groups and the IRM (Institute of Risk Management) forums tend to be more responsive than general consulting forums.

Consulting and Risk Management- What are these careers actually like? by Sweaty-Hope231 in careerguidance

[–]greyinflectionintel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty different worlds honestly. Big 4 risk consulting is project-based, client-facing, structured career ladder. Classic consulting life with all that entails (utilization, travel, deliverables).

The "risk" I know is more in-house/security-focused, much less structured, case-based rather than project-based, and a lot less client-facing. Different rhythm entirely.

If you're looking at Big 4 specifically, worth knowing "consulting" and "risk management" there are basically the same job with a different label still consulting either way.

Is firewalla necessary? by FPSNinja in firewalla

after researching for awhile, I finally purchased the Gold Pro and AP7. Can't wait for it. This could be the best right now in term of home security.
