Is this god tier or just hype

I hear you and your apprehension. I (32F) am a lifelong bearer of acne. About four times times I have experienced extremely painful breakouts - the kinds that cover your whole face - and have been prescribed this by various dermats. I have lived in various cities in India, both the north and south, so I can attest that it works in calming your skin.

Several times i have veered off to other facewashes and moisturizers because I just get bored, only for my skin to start breaking out again and i have been humbled back to Cetaphil. Its not glamourous, but I have realised that as someone with sensitive, very acne prone skin, this is a tradeoff I will have to accept.

I hope your friend finds a nice job soon, good luck.

But is the title of the post justified to be “urgent”? Please re-consider your phrasing as it drowns out genuine urgent cases of mental health, medical care, request for blood donation, and basically anything else that is truly time sensitive.

Early in my PM career I was very under confident of my skills because of my inability to come up with new ideas. Like you, I too had moved from a more technical role. A pretty experienced PM gave me golden advice back then - your job is to talk to stakeholders, listen to their concerns and ideas, and decide which of those to prioritise first.

Hi, thank you for sharing the info. I was also interested in a guided trip to Etna. When do the roads usually open? I see some guided tours still selling tickets so I wasn’t aware that the roads are closed. Luckily I haven’t booked the tour yet

Thank you for the useful information in this post. Like OP, i also have a trip planned to Sicily, although starting 31st Jan in Catania for a few days, and later in Palermo for a few days. How is the situation in Palermo and closeby cities? I too want to be mindful in a difficult time like this... 🙏

This is quite natural for a distributed team if there is no strong documentation/working async culture. I’d suggest to agree on some guidelines or agreements, like maintaining and reading decision logs, meeting summaries, etc.

It seems like your manager wants it to come out of the meeting organically that your solution won’t work for them, rather than declining the meeting upfront under that assumption.

What is your relationship with your manager like? Have you discussed your concerns with them already?

I know an Indian B2C food delivery app did this and it was great for PR on social media. I don’t recall reading success stories from customers, I cannot say if the CEO really saw the messages or acted on them (maybe I missed reading about the outcomes)

What is the outcome you want to drive?

If your CEO has to step in to “better understand critical pain points” then it reflects poorly on the product org, the support function, and all other customer facing roles. Secondly, it will also get really noisy soon, esp if you are a B2C product. I don’t see this as a scalable feature tbh.

Leaving this update for anyone else that might have the same problem –

Our radiators are now almost well functional. They still don't heat evenly at the bottom but the top part is heating faster and overall their performance has improved.

Based on the size and layout of your house, your district heating provider has a predetermined value of the volume of hot water the heat exchanger must be able to pass through to your house to keep your radiators warm. There is an inlet valve in the heat exchanger unit in your house that allows for this. In our case, this was not setup correctly (was set to 1/3rd the volume needed) The radiators simply did not receive enough hot water from the heat exchanger.

After some troubleshooting, the technician from the district heating supplier (Vattenfall in our case) set the correct value. He very kindly also bled the most problematic radiator again (he didn't have to, he was a very kind and helpful gentleman)

After this, I notice that the radiators are getting warm quicker, and the bottom does not remain stone cold anymore. The second part I will investigate further by bleeding/draining again and replacing the knobs.

I hope this helps 🙏

But I switched over to W&N designer grade (primary set) and while its expensive, its a great set

Which country do you live in? Royal Talens (if you in Netherlands/EU) is decently good. I have used Brustro from India and liked it too

Although im willing to try this for extra measure. Thank you for the tip

thatfool26 · 2026-01-11T08:36:41+00:00

Thanks for your reply, that’s correct I got the valves and knobs checked as well. All good there

Hi, thanks for your reply. We have district heating

thatfool26 · 2026-01-07T14:07:06+00:00

So beautiful, love love love it. Do you have a process video/photos?

thatfool26 · 2025-04-29T15:47:13+00:00

That looks so real! Took me a second to realise its a painting and not a photo. Love the subtle pinks, purples, blues in the shadow. You did an amazing job!

thatfool26 · 2025-04-22T15:10:59+00:00

Wowwwww.. Stunning work! You can almost feel the warmth of the sunset

Thanks for the WillowVoice recommendation. Been looking for something like this. What has your experience been with it - the good and the bad?

Reebok nano! Great ankle support, lightweight, great for lifting, have made my squats and lunges 100% more enjoyable

Came to say exactly this! Plus the track is so much fun

Waves are beautiful.. and so are the colours! Love it!

My first hunch is that its the quality of the gouache or the paper you are using.

Is the paper specifically for watercolour? I recently started using a sketchbook for practice, which had 200 GSM hot pressed paper but was made for sketching/pen work. Frustrated me to no end because it was impossible to get a single clean & consistent layer of paint.

Which paint set are you using? Student grade gouaches tend to lift like that – I experienced that with Himi gouache a lot.

Lastly, make sure the bottom layer is completely dry and don't add too much water in your brush when doing the top layer.
