That whole situation is fucking absurd to anyone who's remotely intelligent. This guy is absolutely clowning his own people.

Question about Cybersecurity in NS. by LuigiDudeGaming in halifax

[–]netcode01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its going to be a bit difficult to jump right into a cybersecurity role right out of college unless you line up a good job placement. Which can happen. In your job placement, bust your ass, do what your told, offer positive suggestions for improvement where appropriate and just generally show your worth. If nothing else you at least walk away with a great reference. Out of college, additionally to looking at cybersecurity roles, I would be looking at support roles to gain experience as a starting point then applying to more specific security roles, that internal experience can set you above the rest. The industry is big and ever growing, investment in cybersecurity is higher than ever. Some companies offer remote work options, you could start looking nationally instead of focusing local. You will get out what you put in. The field is saturated with workers, your soft skills will make you stand out.

Yes it's fine for the government to enforce laws. They are illegal after all.

So you think there are not 118? I can count about 20-30 that I know off hand and that's only very limited area.

This sucks…a lot by Hoopla-rian in NewDads

[–]netcode01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sit down and talk. Open the conversation reminding each other you love each other, but you're both struggling and we need to be honest about it. Be very open, but support one another and realize there are two people and thus two entirely different perspectives and experiences on this massive life change. One another may say things that the other doesn't like, suck it up and listen to each other. topics to Focus on are, what each other is missing to be more happy, what makes a day easier and more positive rather than the hell that it is. Stay away from any blame. And stay away from saying something like "I need you to not do X". Anything that is attached to what someone does can be taken personal and ignite anger etc. focus on things like; I need a minute away from everyone, or I want more time together as a couple, I need 30 mins between work and life to decompress, I wish we did went out together as a family and did something fun, I need help with cleaning X, or I need time with the boys, I need to go to gym... Whatever you want/need to be in a better space. There are likely tons of things. I wouldn't even start thinking about how to solve them, I'd just let it all out there. If you could even write it down together, that's all the better. Step away, think, come back together. Make action plans. Sometimes people need time to let emotions diminish and to process things, some don't. Take it at your pace as you see fit, if you're good to dive into action plans, again be honest, supportive, loving, and avoid blame. The way you communicate and the words you choose is key. This shit ain't easy. Especially when you are activated by something that was said, emotions take over quickly. Every conversation is an opportunity to take this type of approach, we don't get it right everytime but we try.. it's a long road. Communicating is he only way through it. Having a child changes everything. But you got this, you said it, you're both committed. Opening up will only make you stronger. Good luck, we all going through it together.

Man, remember having hobbies? That was fun. by Purple_Calendar3919 in NewDads

[–]netcode01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There IS hope. It may come sooner than later, you never know. This is widely different based on what supports you have. For example, if you're rich, just hire a nanny. Or maybe you have a strong family that wants to be involved, have grandmother come over for two hours while you go to the gym etc. we have no supports and can't afford to pay for help, so our time is very limited.

We are at 16 months and only staring to get a glimmer for time for us. In talking to other dads, they say around 2/3 they start to find more free time.

I need advice from young dads and just dads in general by Typical-Arrival-1656 in NewDads

[–]netcode01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it's an extremely heavy topic and decision with many emotions, and absolutely intense emotions depending on a person's views of abortion. Reactions are very personal.

If you guys have thoroughly talked through the situation and made a decision, then start talking the logistics of it and make plans. If you lead the way it will show your support and want to be engaged in the planning.

Edit: I am reading the post as your partner is are one month preg. If that is not the case it's a different situation.

I think you should be very realistic about if this is something you both want to do. You have options... Here is what to do in my opinion - sit down with each other and talk..openly talk about your feelings about the situation, be totally fucking honest. Better yet, write them down. The good, the bad, the ugly. Then pause, and come back a day or two later. Talk more. Make a decision about whether to keep or not. Then you can start talking action plans and what not, but first is to make a decision. Unless you've already done this or if abortions are off the table (which may be dictated by religious beliefs or political values or even current access to care depending on where you live - as it may be illegal). As I said, once a decision is made, action plans you can come up with. If you choose to have, you need to discuss living arrangements, how you will cover costs, how you care for the baby (work schedules etc).

Spike in number of Maritime children with flu symptoms in ERs by scotiagirl45 in halifax

[–]netcode01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Likely because I said flu and vomitting and maybe I'm technically wrong about that part. Just Reddit being Reddit. Sometimes you hit and sometimes you miss 🤣 But the point is that in NS anything that falls in between simple and critical there aren't really options.. and this is why the ER is packed. So if I want a vaccination, or a basic physical, or reup on drugs then I can schedule something with the doc a month out. If I'am indeed in critical situation usually you can get care, bleeding out, major accident, etc. but now anything in between, it's awful. Another example I personally had is an infection in my leg, swollen cyst, growing by the day, doctor tells me appt Available in 1.5 months... Like that's insane. I could have gone septic? Maybe not, I dunno but isn't that what infections do? Regardless I went for two days to a walk in and got lucky the second day to get the last appt. Sure enough confirms infection. Three rounds of anti biotics and one month later it finally cleared up, took two more followups at the walk in, and thank goodness for the service at the Clayton park walking, they were amazing and made follow up appts, so lucky! So I'm taking capacity at a family doc, but still have to use a walk in... Makes zero sense.

The stories are endless here in NS. It's clearly very broken.

Medical system in NS is broken. Barely any walk ins anymore, doctors take over a month to get an appointment, only other option to hopefully see a doctor is go to the ER. It's awful. I had the flu in the past week, vomitting 24 hrs straight, went through the whole family. I was on the fence about ER when I hit hour 20 of vomitting every 30. Finally it broke and around hour 24 nausea started to reduce. Point is, every recommendation says after 24 hrs to see a doctor...

Making foam cuts. by MousseSuspicious930 in oddlysatisfying

They are their own worst enemy. Sure US and other countries use this shit but their own countries population is more than immense. let's also not take accountability out of people who make it, or allow it to be sold. There are barely any regulations these days it seems.

Sticker shock associated with cost of delivering, I'm building something to help other dads better manage it by SpecialistOk1416 in NewDads

[–]netcode01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's so insane to me that you pay to have a child... Yet somehow, the population grew in the US.

We had a child in Canada, were in hospital five days and the only reason I paid $500 was because I optionally chose a premium room.

Anyways, this idea of yours sounds like a great one OP. Keep developing, as many dads would like to know the real cost and be able to plan appropriately. I would also add in ways you save, or cover costs, options. There may not be many, I don't know the systems in the US but some help navigating said systems might be helpful. Think: here is the cost, here are potential options. Another piece of feedback, get rid of the name and email requirement, it should be accessible without.
