I met a guy on Bumble and we've been on a few dates and I felt like it was going super well so I mentioned that we should both delete our accounts. I deleted mine and he said he deleted his but idk if he really did because he's kinda weird and semi ghosting me since then. I know there's a snooze mode that is different from deleting the app but is it actually different or is it essentially the same thing? Is there a way I can see if he's actually still on it?

It's finally time for us to get a proper CRM instead of running our entire business on Google Sheets. It's just getting to be more hassle than it's worth, and we're ready to invest in something that'll be able to grow with us.

Wondering what everyone recommends for a smaller business with a smaller budget?

We don't have Salesforce or Hubspot money. I'm considering building something out on Airtable, but would really prefer a dedicated CRM. Most of what we need it for is call and email tracking, sales automations, pipelines, etc. Nothing too crazy imo

I wanna start my NG+1 run and I need some advice for NG+ players here for armour sets to use. I'm looking at 3 sets; mainly the Pilgrim Set, Wukong Set, and the Bull King Armour Set.

The Bull King armour set gives extra defense, in exchange it takes away your ability to get a perfect dodge, which I don't even lose much since I can't dodge reliably in this game lol.

Pilgrim Set also looks cool, to be able to gain focus while sprinting and drinking from the gourd makes it good for a Hit and Run build. Which is what my play style is surrounded at.

Wukong Set from what I can see is just a combination of both offense and defense.

What do you guys think? Should I go full damage and use Pilgrim or go for defense and use Bull King's set? Or maybe a mix of both and go for the OG Wukong Set.

PR specialist here and I've been feeling a bit lost when it comes to tracking my brand mentions in AI searches. I want to know if ChatGPT is recommending my brand when people ask product-category questions but there's no official way for me to check this. I'd like to keep consistent tabs on this stuff if possible, but at the very least just a snapshot of what we're looking at would be amazing. Any advice?

Is it just me or is it easier to dodge and attack a boss once you are close to them rather than far from them.

I noticed this when fighting the Venom Daoist and Scorpion Lord, also the Chief Macaque and most spirit mini bosses in Chapter 3 and 4. Once I'm near them it's basically way easier for me to dodge because I have a smaller hit range and the bosses don't register your character being there for like 1-2 seconds before they start comboing your shit.

So it is easy for me to build up focus points and stun them with attacks and immobilize lol. Does this happen to you guys too or is it just me

I always see venues advertising venue presales for upcoming concerts, but when sale day comes around I never know where to find the codes. I follow all my local venues on IG and Facebook, and half the time they post the code directly there, and the other half there's just no info. Not on their websites either.

Am I missing something? Is this because the venues aren't consistent with announcing the codes or is there a secret newsletter I should be signed up for? I get general venue emails announcing shows, but never the specific venue presale codes. Please tell me if there's a simple fix to this

This question is as old as time, but with new horror movies popping out in the 2020's I just wanna ask if there are people out there that really prefer one over the other.

This is my first soulslike game and Im in chapter 2. So far Im dealing with a big ass tiger and I cant find a way to counter this dude, I also beat the rat king's two sons before this. I cant seem to time the attacks of the enemies, hell i dont even know how to parry in this game.

I also have no idea what to prioritize in the skill tree so my skills is currently a mix of abilities and spells, sooo its kind of a mismatch for all bosses. Im enjoying the game, but I just cant find my tempo on some bosses

For context, Im coming from an i7 9700 and RTX 3060. I have had issues with AM4 before with a CMOS problem so I want to go from Intel to Intel.

Thats why I chose the I5 12400F, I just want a PC that will last 3 years before upgrading since I have gotten this PC before the pandemic.

So many people have told me this is a dead socket, but some people told me that within my budget this is the best upgrade path that I can afford.

So I was playing SN2, while trying to build a base near the Alien Metal Farm so that I wont have to travel 900m to the nearest base I have.

While I was scanning some stuff as usual, I oddly felt something that was wrong. It felt like someone was watching me, so I hurried up and went to my Tadpole. Once I was in my tadpole I went to surface up because of the Depth Module I had was limited to 450meters, I wanted to make room for myself so I wont trigger the Depth Limit.

It was on instinct that I always look up so I wouldn't bump into some stones or big fishes, and when I looked what was above me I saw the Collector Leviathan just staring at me.

Scariest part was that the fish wasnt even doing anything like it always does, its just looking and staring me as if it was studying me. I immediately paused the game and went for a walk because I was scared shitless that I needed some space to breathe.

When I got the strength to play the game again, the Collector went as usual travelling back and forth above the metal farm. The encounter was a sweet 30 seconds but man that was scary as fuck.

BBC just exposed Southampton's manager for using interns to spy on rival training sessions. Some people call it clever. It's not. Leeds got fined for something similar. Using interns makes it worse. These are kids being asked to do something shady because they won't say no. Would you accept this from your own manager?

I’m posting our hiring stack since I've gotten value from these threads in the past. We’re series A B2B SaaS, hiring across eng and gtm. We’re generally tweaking but this is roughly the current shape

ATS: greenhouse, heavy for our size honestly but it scaled with us so we kept it. 

Sourcing: linkedin recruiter for general roles

External recruiting: Niche/harder roles we hire through Paraform, or just when we’re drowning internally.

Scheduling: calendly, boring choice but works. 

Notes/CRM for candidates: notion until we outgrew it, now just inside greenhouse.

Reference checks: crosschq for senior roles, manual for everything else 

Take homes: hatchways for eng, mixed feelings but it does the job.

What other series A teams are running? I’m specially interested in what's worked for gtm hiring specifically because that's where our process still feels weakest

Something we didn't know existed until we were already deep into prep stress. We were trying to figure out how to cover the upfront cost of getting the house ready to list, paint, some landscaping, a few fixture updates, and our agent mentioned a no-interest loan through Compass that gets paid back at closing.

We used it, it worked exactly as described, and it took a real source of anxiety out of the whole process. No hidden fees, no monthly payments, just paid back when we closed. Not sure how widely known this is but if you're selling through Compass and stressing about upfront prep costs it's worth asking your agent about directly.

Curious if anyone else has gone through this and what their experience was like.

How to find a legitimate fast business loan provider matters more than rate comparison because the predatory operators in this space are aggressive and the contracts get brutal fast. Here's the filter checklist.

Filter 1: Direct lender vs marketplace. Direct lenders fund with their own capital and don't sell application data. Marketplaces shop your file to multiple funders and your contact info ends up in pools that get resold for years. Ask point blank: "Are you a direct lender or do you broker the application?"

Filter 2: Total payback in writing before signing. Legitimate lenders put the actual dollar number you'll repay in the offer letter. Predatory operators dance around it with factor rates.

Filter 3: Verifiable operating history. Legitimate fast business loan providers have BBB accreditation, real funded volume claims, and ideally third party verification. Self generated testimonials don't count.

Filter 4: Reconciliation language in the contract. Real revenue based lenders spell out what happens if revenue dips below baseline.

Filter 5: Origination fee transparency. Ask whether origination is deducted from funded amount or added to payback.

Legitimate fast business loan providers that pass these filters fall into three categories: direct revenue based lenders that fund off their own balance sheet using bank statement underwriting (total merchant resources is one example, BBB accredited and qualifying at $10k monthly deposits and roughly 3-4 months operating), direct equipment lenders, and direct factoring companies.

Kept seeing Ohai on instagram and it looks interesting, curious if anyone here actually uses it and what your experience has been like day to day

Been microdosing with them for about 8 weeks at 0.25mg weekly and honestly it's working out better than expected.

Was hesitant because of the $99 pricing …seemed too cheap compared to others, but their flat rate actually makes microdosing way more affordable since you're not penalized for using less medication.

Some providers i looked at charge based on dosage tiers which makes no sense for microdosing.

down 11lbs with basically zero side effects… slow approach is definitely my speed.

Anyone else microdosing through them..?

Hi guys! Im a college student na malapit na mag graduate and I just want to know which place is good for a beginner trader/investor (if you guys could put it that way)?

I have a friend whose nephew is a day trader i think, and he always brags how got his first million just recently. I really cant specify whether he is a day trader or not, pero ang characteristics niya is may handler siya which is boss/broker niya ata and he works only in midnight to early morning. Meron siyang sinabi sakin na natuwa boss niya kasi nagjackpot siya kaya binilhan siya ng LV Bag, and ngayon lang kaka earn niya ng first mil bumili pa siya ng ibang accounts to trade on. He's been on the game for a long time, nung 2023 pa ata siya nag start.

I cant lie when I say naeganiyo talaga ako don, and I also want to explore other means of making money while Im still young and have some free time. So far, Im buying and selling pc parts and also doing freelance work on the side, but I cant help but think na iinvest ko kaya yung excess money ko that I spend on stupid shit on.

I also saw some people on Tiktok trading on XAUUSD, pero I dont think na suited for beginners yon.

I dont want easy money, rather I want to learn something new on what to do with my money, and what other sources of income I can rely on. And as beginner, I understand naman it doesnt come quick and I will always net some losses. But for the betterment of my financial literacy, Im willing to take some small risk naman to make something big out of it.

Yun lang, Thanks!

My middle schooler's school introduced an AI writing assistant this semester with basically no explanation of what it is, how it works, or what happens to the conversations students have with it. No permission slip came home, no info night, no communication at aII.

One day they just started using it in class. What bothers me isn't the tool itself. I get that these things are everywhere now and kids are going to encounter them regardless.

What bothers me is that my kid uses it with zero skepticism. Whatever it outputs, they accept as correct and move on. There's no checking, no questioning, no sense that the tool might be wrong or that the information might need verification. l want to have a reaI conversation about this at home but I'm not sure how to frame it in a way that lands without turning into a lecture about technology they're going to use anyway. How are other parents navigating this? And has anyone actually gotten their school to add something structured around AI literacy?
