I believe the most meaningful relationships are built when you get to know someone for who they truly are beyond the surface details. I am 27, friendly, and grounded, with a deep appreciation for the quiet moments as much as the adventurous ones.

On any given weekend, you might find me out by the water capturing photos, going for a long walk to clear my head, or staying in with a good book and relaxing over a PC game. I love a balanced life where staying active seamlessly mixes with slow, peaceful days.

I am looking for a partner who is emotionally mature, kind-hearted, and values open, honest communication. I hope to find a woman who knows what she wants, appreciates simple pleasures, and is ready to build a supportive, real connection. Being close enough to eventually meet up for a walk or a coffee in person is definitely ideal.

If you are reading this, skip the polite small talk and send me the absolute worst photo in your camera roll with zero context. If you can make me laugh right out of the gate, I will tell you the backstory behind mine over a coffee

We're a 14-person SaaS company based in Austin and just found an incredible product designer in London who we really don't want to lose.

Setting up a UK entity feels insane for 1 hire so we've been looking at EOR providers, and the space is way more crowded and confusing than I expected.

So far I've gotten demos from Deel, Remote, and Oyster, and they all feel pretty similar on the surface.

Deel's pricing was the most straightforward but their onboarding felt super templated and I've read mixed things about their support once you're past the sales process.

Remote seemed solid on the compliance side but more expensive.

Oyster's UI is nice, but I'm not sure they own their own entities in the UK which makes me nervous.

A friend who runs a Berlin-based startup told me to also look at WorkMotion, since they're apparently strong in Europe and own their entities there, so has anyone used them for UK hires specifically?

At this point I care most about 3 things: how fast can we get this person on payroll, is the employment contract actually compliant with UK labor law, and will someone pick up the phone when we have questions.

Cost matters but within reason since we're comparing it against the alternative of just not hiring this person.

Would love to hear from anyone who's gone through this recently, especially if you've switched between providers and can compare.

thanks

We visit places tour around discover new spots

Going to be near techno park soon so we can meet there

Hey everyone,

I’ve been single for over 5 years now, and lately I’ve been reflecting on it a bit. At times it feels completely fine and natural, but every now and then I wonder if it’s unusual to be out of a relationship for this long.

I’m curious to hear from others here how long have you been single, and how do you feel about it? Is this pretty standard, or do most people jump back into dating much sooner?

Looking forward to reading your thoughts and experiences!

Title explains everything, I'm trying to build an app for those who want to learn Spanish but with a unique way of learning, we all master a certain language, why not just use that as a base and mirror what you know already and just create the Link between the teo languages

Anyone interested in this let me know!

Our SAP Commerce Cloud storefront takes anywhere from 3 to 8 seconds to load a PDP depending on time of day, and we're running the recommended infrastructure spec our SI signed off on.

Peak sale days push us past 12 seconds on the checkout summary step.

Talking to peers at other SAP shops, it feels near-universal, and whether they're on older Hybris versions or fully on Commerce Cloud, the frontend feels sluggish compared to whatever Shopify Plus or headless-composable setup (SCAYLE, commercetools, or spryker…) their competitors are on.

Is this an architecture ceiling, a caching-layer situation, an SI implementation thing, or a real product limit?

Considering SCAYLE as a possible BC alternative, been on Enterprise for a while and the multi-country roadmap has slid twice this year, so figured i'd share where the research has landed in case someone's in the same spot.

SCAYLE comes out of AboutYou (Zalando group now), it's a retailer-built platform, and the customer profile leans european mid-market and enterprise fashion. Snipes uses it across 11 markets, Harrods migrated onto it during their last platform refresh, and Deichmann has it across a brand portfolio.

commercetools is the other name that comes up but the customer base skews Fortune-500 with big dev budgets, which is a different tier than where we sit.

on the risk side, the SI ecosystem is smaller than SFCC or BC's own partner network, so the choice of integration partner matters more than usual, and reviewers on trials mention the promotion engine coverage is thinner than what we've built up on BC.

Roadmap moves fast, which cuts both ways (features ship, but features you built around can move).

Still on the evaluation rabbit hole, so i'm open to takes from folks who moved off BC or evaluated SCAYLE directly.

we're a UK-based startup expanding into 3 EU countries this year (germany, france, spain, and possibly the netherlands depending on who interviews well).

we're on rippling for UK payroll which has been fine, but their EU coverage is thin and a couple of HR leads and founders i pinged all said Deel is the obvious default for EU EOR.

problem is the Deel reviews i'm reading are mixed, with dashboard bloat and pricing tier creep and a few specific horror stories about tax filings going wrong in germany and italy. Don't want to commit to a multi-year contract with someone who's optimizing for upsell over operations.

looking for the cleaner EU-focused alternatives that own their entities in DACH and southern europe instead of white-labelling through a local partner.

My Google and reddit research narrowed it down to 2 candidates, Workmotion (direct EU entities) and Remote (broader coverage but more variable on the local entity story), and i want to hear it from operators before locking in either one.

cost is secondary because ownership of the legal entity is the main filter, since misclassification risk feels like it lives at whoever signs the employment contract.

so for those running a small EU team (under 20 people) through a non-deel EOR, who'd you recommend, and what shook out the worst in the first quarter after signing?

We could grab a coffee at a nice cafe, chill, talk, work on our own things, or just see where the day takes us. Let me know if you are down to connect! Ps :27M here forgot to add that

I've been reading a lot of posts from people looking for friends, or someone to hangout with, a lot of people here feel like it's impossible to find like-minded people, It is. But not anymore, we're building something just for that exact problem, an app where you find people with same interests as you willing to do activities with you

The app is simple you become a member you post your activity for the day, done!

There's a catch though, to keep the app clean it's a join in by references, you can join in if your friend who's already in as a member, if you misbehave or break the app rules you're immediately banned, your friend too who invited you, take responsibility for who you invited :) , that's it !

We need as much people as possible to join our list, because those are going to be the first users to get notified by the release

spent a decade running outbound across 4 different SaaS companies (ex-head of outbound at the last one), and i burned 6 figures on bad tools and worse hires before any of it started working.

So I'm dropping the whole list here in case it saves someone the same waste.

1. ICP > everything else combined, and i learned that by spending $100k on enrichment seats over the years before realizing my outbound was missing because i was hitting the wrong buyers and the data had nothing to do with it

2. the highest-converting list i ever built was 200 named accounts in a spreadsheet i researched manually with nothing automated, and the reply rate hit 22%

3. AI SDRs make a bad motion worse and a good motion roughly 20% faster, but they don't replace the motion itself

4. cold email is dying as a primary channel for senior buyers, and in 2026 cold call to a cell > cold email > linkedin DM by a wide margin

5. the all-in-one seats killed me because apollo, zoominfo, and lusha all promised everything in one place and each one was 30-40% wrong on the segment we cared about

6. apollo had the best UI of any tool i used, but the data underneath was consistently the worst, so we stopped renewing

7. cognism's data on EU senior buyers held up when nothing else did, and the price tag matched the performance

8. sender warmup is not optional, and every time we skipped it we lost 1-2 sender domains in the first 90 days

9. deliverability consultants are worth the money, our last one cost $4k for a 2-day audit and saved us roughly $50k in sender domain rebuild costs over the next year

10. the SDR-to-AE ratio that worked for us was 1:1, and the 3:1 ratios everyone preaches just bury AEs and tank win rates

11. discovery calls > demos, the deals where we skipped discovery closed at 14% and the deals with 30-min discovery first closed at 31%

12. compensation matters more than process, we paid SDRs on meetings that ran past 20 minutes and dropped meetings-booked as the comp metric entirely, and pipeline quality tripled

13. the dashboard people forget to build is bounce-rate-by-source, and if you're not watching it weekly you'll burn a sender pool before you notice

14. eventually i stopped buying single-source seats entirely and went to a waterfall instead (cognism for EU compliance, fullenrich for personal cells, and findymail for verification), and connect rates went from 8% to 27% within a quarter

15. founder-led outbound for the first 50 customers, every time, because SDRs hired before the founder closes consistently will be guessing at what works

16. the best SDRs i ever hired came from non-sales backgrounds like former teachers and ex-customer-success folks, because they could have a real conversation with a buyer where a script-reader could never

learned every one of these by being wrong about it first, so happy to AMA in the comments on any of them that are relevant to your motion.

3 months into this RevOps seat and i'm still cleaning up after the guy who was here 4 years before me, including this week's discovery that we needed lawyers for.

the offboarding when he left for a series B was the usual checklist of laptop, slack, jira, and salesforce, but personal cloud storage wasn't on it because he'd been here 4 years and was the responsible one.

i found the dropbox while hunting for a shared workflow template he'd told me about in handover, but instead of the template i got a folder called client_export_archive with 2.3M rows of contact data in it, specifically every enrichment query he'd run since 2022 already cleaned and segmented.

our vendor contract required deletion of enriched data after 90 days, and he'd been violating that clause for 4 years straight.

linked in the same folder was a stripe dashboard showing 14 paying customers, all recruiters, $200 a month each for read-access to the database, about $33k a year in side income going to his personal LLC, with invoices dating back to late 2022.

he'd built a notion landing page to market the service, listed our company name as a trust signal in the testimonials section, and two of those testimonial recruiters had later interviewed candidates AT our company using data scraped from our prospect base.

reported it up the same day, legal took it from there, and he settled out of court because the alternative was a DTSA suit and his series B was about to close.

during the months-long cleanup, legal pulled data-licensing terms from Cognism, ZoomInfo, and FullEnrich, and only one of them had the deletion-audit language we could trigger, which is the contract we ended up building the new stack on, and the one we should have had on the old vendor from day one.

checked the offboarding checklist after this and personal cloud storage still isn't a line item on it

put together every receipt i've spent on outbound coaching and it came to about 20 grand, didn't move my pipeline a single inch.

first was a $5k mastermind run by a former AE who'd sold to 2 F500 logos in his old job and figured that qualified him to coach, with weekly zoom calls and a slack channel that died after a few weeks, plus 12 lessons that boiled down to building a list and following up enough times...

stuff i could have read on any sales blog years ago.

second was the AI prompt newsletter cohort, where every newsletter promised a prompt that 10x'd someone's pipeline or a Clay table that did what FullEnrich does for a fraction of the cost, alongside screenshots of inboxes showing 35% open rates with no proof the meetings happened, all for $400 a year and the privilege of getting an inbox full of cohort-launch emails.

third is the LinkedIn ex-SDR cohort, the ones with 50k followers who quit their bag job and now make their living telling you the SDR playbook they used to hit quota at one company will work at all of them.

it never does, because the playbook is about being good at your specific ICP, which they never mention.

stopped giving them money a while back, and the pipeline didn't get worse, picked up roughly the same number of customers reading old threads on reddit and sending more calls.

what works in outbound is a lean stack of tools and 4 hours a week on the phone. the rest is selling certainty to people who don't have any.

i'm head of revenue at a b2b compliance tool and we ran the AI-SDR-replacement experiment for a while (we're talking 5 SDR seats gone and 4 AI agents spinning across email and LinkedIn doing the booking work).

by the end of Q3 we had hired 6 of those SDR seats back, restructured the AI side into something completely different, and stopped telling the experiment story at conferences.

pipeline volume held up fine through the experiment, the AI agents booked roughly the same meeting count and the show rate stayed within margin.

what cracked was the deal cycle because compliance buyers want to talk to a person before they trust the demo and our enterprise renewal motion needs an SDR who can hold a 30-minute discovery call when the buyer-side champion suddenly loops in their Head of Risk.

and the AI agents could book the meeting but they couldn't read the politics of the room when the deal started moving sideways, so halfway through the experiment we had a calendar full of meetings the AE bench couldn't close.

what stuck was the boring half of the experiment with Apollo running the email sequences, BuildBetter pulling themes across the call recordings, and Avoma sitting in on the meetings.

the SDRs we hired back are running discovery calls already loaded with the right context instead of grinding through 200 dials a week to surface what the buyer cares about, the augment-the-human version where the AI gives the SDRs better context for the calls they were already going to have anyway.

talked to 2 other founders who ran the same swap, the experiment cuts cost fast, then the deals stop closing, then the SDR job listings reappear in a different headcount bucket.
