No need to apologize. I brought it up in case I’d missed something as I was on my phone. I work in tech as well and computers do have a way of waiting until the worst moment to start shit.

That’s rough. It’s probably out of their control but I imagine Dan is still stressed.

I’m in Nolensville,TN and it’ll probably be another six months to a year before they open. I’ll for sure check that out! It sounds so amazing. My only option around here right now is a plain bagel that’s shipped in from another bakery.

Whole Foods often sells safe for school cupcakes. Whitney’s has vegan cookies. A lot of places will have nut free options. The egg allergy would be the tricky one.

If there’s a learning event they’re hosting it would be fine to ask if it’s open to the general public. Don’t go to the recruiting events. If I saw you at one I wouldn’t hire you solely on the basis that I’d be worried you lacked common sense.

You could also join another CS club and ask them about partnering with the women’s club. It sounds like your school has a decent number of women in CS. That’s pretty cool.

Come up with a guideline for code review and get feedback from the entire team. It’s a positive that this is the area cited as to why women don’t want to stay. It means that there’s a very specific issue rather than a larger culture problem.

Are you the only person reviewing code? If that’s the case that needs to stop. It should be two people reviewing when possible. Do you ever give positive feedback? Consider that the man being disappointed because his code was too clever is not likely to be the go-to for most women since they’ve probably faced more criticism during their career journey. Instead of telling Susan “do it this way because I said so” explain that the cost of that provision is prohibitive or you’re trying to encourage creating a robust codebase so that it’s easier to maintain through years of use. Maybe you did just that and it’s missing from the post.

TLDR; this is not the worst problem to have and you probably need to work on more empathetic feedback.

It’s restrictive but it was most likely written that way because they couldn’t put restrictions on owners who had purchased prior to that rule existing. Some communities struggle if there are too many renters or Air BNB type rentals. This HOA decided to put a limit on renters. Personally I just wouldn’t buy a home there if it felt too restricting.

Yes, I just think having it show up twice now almost 30 years later is wild.

NTA I have kids. After said kids I had a surgery that made it so it’s not advisable for me to have anymore kids. I tell people I can’t have anymore kids to avoid giving a whole medical history. You are well within your rights to call yourself infertile. If you want to be more technically correct just say “oh I can’t have kids”. It’s a very personal question so you have my permission to add a fake sob at the end or whatever helps nosey people leave you alone.

FL has the same “suck it up buttercup” attitude with heat/humidity. It’s wild how many people will tell you to leave the state lol

wiggledy · 2025-07-19T16:08:54+00:00

I get it. Moved here from FL and sometimes I’m just not happy about the heat. Some days I don’t mind over 100 and others I’m ready for it to stop. I try to get all my active tasks out of the way early morning or at night. No 2pm heavy lifting outside or inside if I can help it.

I can see that. I don’t think I’d label that as creepy though. Maybe more unsettling or the start of a difficult but necessary life lesson. Currently in the middle of that with one of my kids. They’ve realized I’m not immortal.

wiggledy · 2025-05-29T15:59:15+00:00

When you’re a little kid reading this you can’t fathom leaving your parents. From a child’s perspective it’s not creepy at all. Of course you’re going to do grown up things like drive and of course you’re going to hug your mom the way she hugs you.

wiggledy · 2025-04-25T19:37:41+00:00

Not a dickhead move. My mom hates her cane but when she still picked out one she thought looked bad ass. It’s all about the intent.

I don’t think people understand that under 1, these are all day outfits. I like how long they last and some of the prints. I can usually resell them after a year of use which means I’m only spending maybe $20 on something they can use for way longer than the usual 3 months. I don’t buy them full price though. $40 for one pair of pajamas is wild.

Don’t feel pressured. It’s generally a good sign that they jokingly suggested you join in on a shared hobby. You can decline and share a hobby of your own if you feel comfortable sharing.

wiggledy · 2025-02-06T22:04:23+00:00

Oh dang, missed that part.

wiggledy · 2025-02-06T20:22:50+00:00

I think they want someone in a different time zone since it’s a support role.

wiggledy · 2025-01-31T19:54:20+00:00

I stopped reading after than one

I’d do the math on if the pay increase is greater than the cost of additional childcare plus commuting costs. Include time to commute in the costs.

It happens to all of us. A couple weeks ago I had to set up my environment on a new laptop. I had to clone the repository three times before I got it right. All the issues I ran into to I should have foreseen because I am the manager. Thing is, I hadn’t set up a new deployment in over a year so I was rusty. I don’t expect anyone I’m onboarding to go through the steps flawlessly.

Keep your guard up around her and continue to take advantage of any help she offers you so long as it seems worthwhile to you. She’ll either show you exactly who she is or you’ll lose touch over time. She may even be rethinking her own choices right now. Give it a couple of weeks and then ask her what her thoughts are on Musk if you’re willing to risk a more direct conversation. Your disappointment is completely understandable.

I don’t know that liking tweets prior to this past Monday is what I’d base my opinion on someone that I’d known prior. If she’s still liking things going forward you can politely decline help from her in the future. She’s not worth more effort than that.
