Can anyone link me to the video of why prime hates react? I've only ever used that so I don't really understand/know what to hate about it - and I want to understand the take. Is there a video where he goes into it in detail/tells us a proper story about it?
Hey! Hopefully this post gets me somewhere lol. I get matches on dating apps but the hellhole that they are - lead to conversations that are drier than the Sahara desert. People barely know how to talk - so here I am hoping for something better. Finally looking to get back into dating after getting out of a long term relationship of 3 years - about 8 months ago.
A little bit about myself:
22M, from Kolkata. I work remotely for a US startup - so open to travelling as I can pretty much anytime/anywhere lol. I love movies, am a foodie (love experimenting with different food when travelling!). Travelling to UK and the EU in a couple of months and then probably going back to the US for work for a few months! I'll be travelling solo and visiting Salerno, Athens, Innsbruck, Slovenia, Vienna, Poland and Berlin - so if you want to give me travel tips, even better haha! STEM background, and looking for someone in a similar-ish background so that we have more in common/have better chances of clicking. I'm also getting back into reading (non-fiction) and writing. I love making my own coffee drinks as well - kind of a coffee nerd lol.
Physically - I'm not very tall (5'5") - so if that's a dealbreaker - I'm sorry for wasting your time lol. I'm lean, and athletic, keep myself fit, and when I travel I like to do activities like rock climbing, and hiking often. Would want to exchange face pics at some point - to not waste each others' time - as let's be honest - attraction does matter.
I am looking for ambitious and confident people - having the drive to achieve something is really attractive!
Looking for something meaningful and long term - don't text me if you're going to be boring/want to end up ghosting lol. Please send a decent amount of info about yourself - and hopefully don't end up being too dry - and I promise to put in effort if you do too :)
Hey all
Have been recently looking more into investing - so far my main focus has been growing my income but I have it to a point where I think I need to think about investing it decently (7.75L/month pre-tax for now)
I've been picking stocks since I was like 19 since I started earning. I have a small portfolio built up (5.2L invested - current value 5.8L - I'm almost always up approximately 10-20% depending on market conditions). So far I didn't have any MF portfolio - and now I'm starting to build that up slowly by doing some lumpsum investments and also starting some SIPs. I dont have pretty much any costs so I'm looking to invest as much as possible except for what I have to keep for advance tax payments.
Question is - how do I think of stocks. Do I think of holding everything forever - or do I book profits in LTCG amounts as and when I can? Because I know MFs are mostly for longer term holding, maybe periodic rebalancing. How to think about stocks?
Sometimes I find some picks where I might book in short term - should I book them? I have so far kept a mindset of long term holding and have mostly been buying large-cap-like companies, a few mid-small cap (very few) - but I dont think I want to keep holding the bag forever. Can someone more experienced help in how to think about this?
Hi all - I started investing at 19yo and have a small sized portfolio - but in recent years my income has 10xed which has led me to asking for advice.
I'm looking into advice independently - I'm watching some Labour Law Advisor videos (I think the people are knowledgable and seem to make sense for me) - other recommendations welcome.
I have a very small corpus (compared to my income now) - invested. I'm planning for a family + solo trip to UK/Europe soon (~June) - so I would need to keep decent amount of funds liquid for that, but I have a lot of money not invested that I would like to invest. Here are some details - I'm mainly asking here to sanity check my thought process, and some important tax implications.
I work as a professional, ineligible for 44ADA/AD and thus would be taxed at the highest slabs. (keeping this in mind for debt funds/arbitrage)
Current portfolio:
Stocks: Invested 5.28L, Current value 6.03L (was stock picking for a while, last invested around 2024/25 - have not had time due to life events, looking to rebalance and do some more active picking here soon)
SGB: Invested ~1L, Current value: 2.66L
FD: 12L
Mutual Funds: None. This is mainly where I'm trying to get advice - I have an aggressive risk appetite - do not care about day-to-day fluctuations, and probably going to follow LLA-Aggressive strategy from Minutes of Mutual Funds + Arbitrage/Liquid funds/some amounts in Debt funds.
Not asking particular advice for what to invest in - mostly questions about taxations and implications.
I am working on an (in progress) plugin that works on full fuzzy (and coming: hybrid semantic search) for opencode sessions.
I've found myself unable to find opencode sessions and often having to tell the model to search for sessions because I often have long running sessions (I like to keep some context often from sessions if i have similar workflows) - and I often need to search for certain this I was working on through projects to kind of remember what I did there.
My current plugin overhauls the opencode session picker (Ctrl-X + L) - with match previews, and fuzzy search powered by fzf, hybrid semantic search. For the later - you will need a local embedding model - any small model should work - but working on picking the best one, experimenting and streamlining setup, indexing instructions. Just wanted to share if other people find this useful - even the fuzzy search part, as I find the only keyword search over names kinda lacking.
Let me know if this is useful for anyone and if this fuzzy search meaningfully improves things for anyone/thoughts on the UI! Its still in progress - and just built really recently - but I'm going to be actively working on this so appreciate any feedback!

Hey everyone
I'm 22M, currently applying for Schengen visa - through an agent because for part of my trip - me and my parents will be visiting together and they wanted to apply via an agent. We will be visiting UK for ~15 days - staying with my relatives for the most part, and then around 8th July - 28th - we plan to visit Europe together, but after that I wanted a while to be solo in Europe.
Problem is - and I think this is a decent question - will this be something that is allowed or not by the visa officer. I work a remote job - and earn $100k USD (contractor for a US company) - so this will not an infeasible trip for me - but I understand that the cost factor and questions are definitely there - so my agent is kind of worried about this.
I will be working remotely throughout, and I already hold a US visa (B1/B2 - got it in 2025 for company related travel - visited USA for 3 months), have previously held Schengen (2024) - visited Germany for 2 months on an internship.
Will this be a question that is brought up or is this something that I will be able to pass through? Should I shorten my duration for better visa application chances? Would the VFS/visa office question my intentions too much?

EDIT: More details - I forgot I copied most of my post body from another subreddit - so here are some more details:
