I currently own both and I’m so confused. The 17 feels so much better because of the size and the weight. I’m sure I’ll miss the telephoto camera but every time I hold the 17 after using the 16PM, I just feel like it’s got to be such a better form factor. Has anyone else made the switch? Do you regret it?
I’ve been on the waitlist for a while. If anyone is not using their invite and in case it’s possible to share, I’d love to take it off your hands. I’m sure some folks are no longer interested during beta due to the cost.
Hi guys, I was planning on visiting Bali with my wife and son. I have never redeemed points for travel before so thought I'd ask the experts here.
I currently have the following:
I wanted to book a round trip from Delhi to Bali. Whats the best way to go about this? I'd really appreciate some advice. Thanks!
My son is 2.5 years old now. Fatherhood has truly changed me in so many ways. I appreciate the smaller things in life more. It forced me to stop, recalibrate on what I thought was important, and reprioritize. While most of the changes have been great, there are some I don't quite know how to deal with right now.
I feel like my son is growing up too fast. I am lucky enough to have a job where I can spend a significant chunk of the day with him, yet I constantly feel like I could be doing more. There's this lingering guilt I can't seem to shake. My wife says it's the damn Instagram reels - the ones that seem to have really skyrocketed in popularity - about how you're not being a good parent unless you're present every single moment.
We are currently looking at a few play groups locally for him to join for 2-3 hours a day. I don't think he needs school just yet, but he's starting to get a bit bored at home and it'd be nice for him to meet other kids his age in a different environment. He goes to the park and the swimming pool twice a day, so it's not like he doesn't socialize - this is more about building towards school eventually. What I'm personally struggling with is mentally preparing myself to put him in an environment where I have no control. He is the nicest kid I know - sharing his toys, never snatching. Lately we've been gently trying to teach him to push back when other kids grab his things, but we don't push it too hard. I firmly believe that at this age, not being a toy snatcher is better than being the kid no one wants to play with.
With my son growing up, and Mrs and I planning a second one, I'm also struggling with where I want to be professionally. I currently have a great job that doesn't pay the best, but it's good enough that there's no financial pressure and I have a lot of flexibility with my time. I do want to move into something that pays better, especially with a second child on the books, but I feel like I'm losing touch with any real sense of professional purpose. I guess things get better once the kids head off to school and you get a bit of your time back.
I am definitely in a weird phase of life. I keep looking back at things I could have done better. I'm enjoying time with my son but constantly feeling guilty that it could be more, or better. I'm struggling with how fast he's growing up. And then when you layer in watching your own parents get older, the ephemeral nature of life really starts to hit you.
Is it just me? I'd love to hear some honest advice from fellow dads on how to deal with all of this.
