2024.05.14 21:41 wglwse Training plan

The context: male, 30, got more serious about running beginning of sep 2023. Increased weekly mileage starting around 25km and quickly got up to 60km a week over about a 8 week period (nearly exclusively zone 2 running). Ran 60-70km for 3 or 4 weeks until I started a 10 week HM training programme I found online (which actually started on christmas day) I followed it to a tee and I really enjoyed it (with the exception of week 7 where i had a niggle in my ankle and missed 3 runs) the plan started at 60k and peaked at 83km. On 3rd March I ran 1:28:08 beating my goal of sub 90! Since then my training has been pretty inconsistent, 2 weeks in the 20's for example and 1 where I managed to do 101km. However this past weekend I achieved my goal of sub 40 at a local 10k race with 39:54. I have a 5k race in 10 weeks and a 52km (flat, trail race 12 weeks after that).
My question is can I train for speed and still run high mileage to simultaneously prepare myself for my october ultra (I'd like to train for a sub 5 minute mile over the next 4 or 5 weeks. Then build from that to a sub 18 5k in my race in 10 weeks) So it would look soemthing like a 22 week block of training: 5weeks 1 mile specific speedwork. 5 weeks 5k specific. 12 weeks 50k specific. While always hitting 90-110km?
The other question I have is regarding strength training, how beneficial would 2 or 3 sessions be per week? (Perhaps a difficult one to answer as impossible to quantify)
Long time lurker of this sub and the knowledge and insight here is absolutely brilliant so I'd love to hear people's thoughts on this. Many thanks in advance.

2024.05.14 21:39 Eazy_T_1972 Confession time

So I have to confess, sorry.
I knew the minute I saw 1999 video back 83 (ish) seeing a Dr on the keyboard, two super šŸ”„ women seductively also playing keyboard and this cool lad in lace and heels singing I knew this was for me
I was probably 10-11 yrs old.
I knew when I saw Purple Rain on VHS in 85 and saw the powder, paint and performance I felt this was TOTALLY my thing .. (Apollonia in Lake Minnetonka did me NO harm either)
Then every album, the psychedelic beauty of around the world in a day, the Parisian decadence of Parade, the grandness and audacity of Sign o the Times , the mystery of the Black Album, the beauty and horny LoveSexy
Then ... Batman I really liked, as I did the film.
1990 Prince was my FIRST gig Wembley Arena London (I saw INXS soon after)
By now I'm 17/18 , it's rave culture in England and times were a changing
I hated Graffiti Bridge seemed like Purple Rain II but without ANY of the wow or charm.
Diamonds and Pearls had moments, the hits were great (and one night I picked up a hot blonde from the club and we fucked to Gett Off, Prince would have approved she REALLY was a little red Corvette)
Suddenly I was out of touch with this man whose lyrics taught me about love, lusting, fucking and heartbreak
I was growing up and growing out.
The revolution was long gone, so it seemed was the sound of my taste.
Sexy MF seemed like he was trying too hard and I really hated My Names is Prince
All that Slave stuff did nothing for me.
There were moments again, but they were brief.
My 80s love for Prince (and the Revolution) was SO huge that I suppose it had to burn out, a mate of mine said same you could NEVER sustain that output and the nostalgia and the sound sit hand in hand
Eveey time a review said his best album in 30 years I sheeled out hoping to recreate them times and feelings, it never did, I list 3121 as an example at hand.
So please don't hate me, I sobbed buckets when he died.
In the 1980s I had all the vinyl, the US imports in the London record shops , I have recently shelled out huge money on the 1999 and Sign OTimes box sets , worth every penny.
But my love for Prince may only be momemty in his musical career but my god it was never bettered.

2024.05.14 21:37 Probable_Foreigner Chat GPT4o still fails my very basic intelligence test.

A while ago I posted an example of Chat GPT 3.5 failing a very basic intelligence test I devised: https://old.reddit.com/OpenAI/comments/12f2d5l/chatgpt_is_very_bad_at_making_decisions_in_new/
I was curious to see how the new model would fare and it is not much better.
User
What version of chat gpt is this? 
ChatGPT
This is ChatGPT, based on the GPT-4 architecture. 
User
Let's play a game. I want you to try your hardest to win. We will both start with 0 points and play for 5 rounds where we both take 1 turn each. During your turn you have 3 possible actions: * Add 1 point to your own score * Subtract 2 points from your opponent's score * Double your own score Highest score wins. Do you understand the rules for this game? 
ChatGPT
Yes, I understand the rules of the game. We both start with 0 points, and we each take one turn per round for a total of 5 rounds. On each turn, we can either: Add 1 point to our own score. Subtract 2 points from our opponent's score. Double our own score. Let's start the game. Since you initiated the game, would you like to take the first turn, or should I go first? 
User
You go first. Scores: Me - 0 ChatGPT - 0 
ChatGPT
I'll go first. I will add 1 point to my own score. Scores: Me - 0 ChatGPT - 1 Your turn! 
User
I will subtract 2 points from your score Me: 0 ChatGPT: -1 End of round 1. Your turn. 
ChatGPT
I will add 1 point to my own score. Scores: Me - 0 ChatGPT - 0 Your turn! 
User
I will subtract 2 points from your score Scores: Me: 0 ChatGPT: -2 End of round 2. Your turn. 
ChatGPT
I will double my own score (which is currently -2). Scores: Me - 0 ChatGPT - (-4) Your turn! 
User
I will subtract 2 points from your score Score: Me: 0 ChatGPT: -6 End of round 3. Your turn. 
ChatGPT
I will double my own score (which is currently -6). Scores: Me - 0 ChatGPT - (-12) Your turn! 
User
I will subtract 2 points from your score. Score: Me: 0 ChatGPT: -14 End of round 4. Your turn. 
ChatGPT
I will double my own score (which is currently -14). Scores: Me - 0 ChatGPT - (-28) Your turn! 
User
I will subtract 2 points from your score. Scores: Me: 0 ChatGPT: -30 End of round 5. The game is over. Who won the game? 
ChatGPT
The game is over, and the final scores are: Me: 0 ChatGPT: -30 You won the game, as you have 0 points and I have -30 points. Congratulations! 
User
What do you think is the optimal strategy? 
ChatGPT
The optimal strategy in this game can vary depending on the specific goal and the opponent's actions. However, given the actions available and the goal of maximizing one's own score while minimizing the opponent's score, here's a potential optimal strategy: Subtract 2 points from the opponent's score whenever their score is low: This ensures they have a negative score, which makes it harder for them to benefit from doubling their score. Double your own score when you have positive points: This action can quickly increase your score, especially if you already have a decent number of points. Add 1 point to your own score sparingly: This is useful to transition from negative to positive points or to prepare for a doubling action. Example Optimal Strategy Round 1: Subtract 2 points from opponent. Round 2: Subtract 2 points from opponent. Round 3: Subtract 2 points from opponent. Round 4: Subtract 2 points from opponent. Round 5: Add 1 point to your own score. By continuously subtracting points from the opponent, you keep their score negative and prevent them from leveraging the doubling strategy effectively. If you find yourself with positive points and enough turns left, then doubling can be very advantageous. In the game we played, you effectively used a strategy of consistently subtracting points from my score, which ensured that I could not leverage the doubling action to get back to positive points. This was a successful approach to securing a win. 
I like this test since it's a bit of a novel environment that's also extremely simple. I think most humans would figure out that the -2 move is the best one, and certainly wouldn't double their own negative score multiple times. Not only does it completely fail to win the game but also the analysis afterwards is completely wrong. The optimal strategy is just to pick the -2 move 100% of the time. Any other move is wrong.
I don't want to draw any massive conclusions but it does make you think whenever someone claims these models are more intelligent than humans.

Employee Internet Monitoring - 5 Scary Ways Employee Internet Monitoring Technology Is Watching You At Work!

5 Scary Ways Employee Internet Monitoring Technology Is Watching You At Work!

Did you know your employer might have read every email or private message you sent on your work computer? Scary thought, isn't it? Why would they do that? Employee internet monitoringā€”that's the watchful system tracking your online work habits. Ever clicked on a website and then realized hours have slipped by? Employers are keen to cut down on that. Reading this, you'll learn why monitoring is in place, how it benefits you, and what you can do to bypass the 5 most common methods of employee internet monitoring.

Top 5 Ways How Employers Monitor Internet Activity

Web Content Filtering

Web content filtering functions by employing software or hardware solutions that evaluate and control the websites or content categories an individual can access. For instance, a company might use this tool to block access to social media websites during work hours to ensure employees stay focused and prevent potential security risks associated with these platforms. This approach helps employers enhance employee productivity, maintain network security, and ensure compliance with company policies regarding internet usage.
How to bypass web content filtering. Employees may attempt to bypass web content filtering by using a VPN or accessing blocked content through a proxy server. However, it's crucial to note that these methods may violate company policies and could have consequences.

Firewall & IDS Logs

In your workplace, there are likely tools like firewalls and Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) that generate logs tracking what happens on the company's network. These logs note things like the data going in and out, IP addresses, and connections. Your employer uses these logs to keep an eye out for unauthorized access, malware, or anything unusual happening online. For example, if you accidentally download something suspicious while at work, these logs record it. This helps your company respond quickly and look into anything that seems out of the ordinary, making sure everything stays secure and compliant with company policies.
How to bypass firewalls & IDS logs. Employees usually cannot directly bypass firewall and IDS logs, as they are backend security measures. However, if employees engage in activities that trigger security alerts, employers may investigate their actions based on the log data.

Keystroke Loggers

Keystroke loggers are surveillance software that track every key you press on your computer. Companies install them to monitor employee activity, ensuring work-related use and securing sensitive data. Imagine typing confidential client information; keystroke loggers record this to prevent data breaches. They also help enforce company policies by flagging non-work-related activities during office hours.
How to bypass keystroke loggers. Use on-screen keyboards or text-to-speech tools as they don't involve physical keystrokes. Additionally, encrypted communication apps can obscure the content of your messages, though this may not prevent loggers from detecting that you've sent a message. Always be aware that attempting to bypass company monitoring tools can violate company policy and have serious repercussions.

Employee Monitoring Software

Employee monitoring software is a tool your company might use to oversee your computer activities during work. Popular brands of employee monitoring software include Time Doctor, VeriClock, and InterGuard. And why might a company use these products? One example is to flag when you send an email containing sensitive company information, ensuring data security and policy compliance.
How to bypass employee monitoring. You could use personal devices during breaks for private communications. However, circumventing these systems can lead to disciplinary action or job loss, so always consider the consequences and adhere to your workplace's guidelines.

Network Traffic Analysis Tools

Network traffic analysis tools examine your internet use, identifying what sites and services you access while on the company network. Companies deploy these tools to spot unusual activity, like accessing high-risk websites, which could introduce security threats. Picture clicking on a streaming service during work hours; these tools alert IT that non-work-related traffic is occurring.
How to bypass network scrutiny. Consider using a virtual private network (VPN), although this may contravene company policies. Alternatively, use your own data plan on personal devices for non-work browsing to stay under the radar.

7 Ways How To Tell If My Boss Is Spying On My Computer

  1. Be aware of alerts and notifications from time tracking and productivity measuring software on your company computer.
  2. Surf for common social media applications and see if they are blocked.
  3. Check the task manager on your computer to look out for any activity monitoring software that you may not be aware of.
  4. Compare the bandwidth allocation and application restrictions on your computer with a colleagueā€™s. If your company computer has more restrictions, chances are you are being monitored by your boss.
  5. Indirectly ask the IT department of your office. This is because not all monitoring software leaves a presence in the task Manager. Some employee monitoring software is more advanced, they run in a stealth-mode and cannot simply be opened.
  6. Open your computerā€™s webcam to assess if it's operational without your approval.
  7. Read your job contract or your companyā€™s employee handbook. If a clause for employee monitoring is present then surely your boss is keeping a check on your internet usage.

Legal Compliance Tips: Responsible Employee Monitoring for Business Owners

If you're a business owner, you're legally allowed to monitor your employees, provided there's a legitimate business interest. Striking the right balance between managing work processes and respecting employees' privacy is essential. Additionally, employees should be notified before any monitoring takes place. Consent requirements may vary depending on your location.
With the rise of remote work, employee internet usage monitoring software and user activity tracking tools are increasingly popular. These systems help improve productivity and protect against insider threats. While it's true that monitoring can boost network security and prevent data loss, it's important to recognize the potential privacy invasion that comes with it. To maintain trust, encourage employees to keep social media usage limited to personal devices and non-work hours. Here are some things you should consider before monitoring an employees' computer activities:
  • Understand local regulations: Research and familiarize yourself with employee monitoring laws in your region to ensure compliance.
  • Establish a clear policy: Create a comprehensive, written policy outlining the extent and purpose of monitoring and share it with employees.
  • Obtain consent: Obtain employee consent, if required by local laws, before implementing monitoring practices.
  • Focus on work-related activities: Limit monitoring to work-related internet usage and activities to minimize privacy invasion.
  • Be transparent: Clearly communicate the monitoring practices, tools, and objectives to your employees.
  • Avoid excessive surveillance: Steer clear of overly invasive methods, such as keystroke logging or unauthorized webcam access.
  • Regularly review your policy: Periodically review and update your monitoring policy to ensure it remains compliant with evolving legal requirements and best practices.
  • Respect personal boundaries: Refrain from monitoring employees during non-work hours or on personal devices.
  • Prioritize employee trust: Create a supportive work environment that respects privacy while maintaining productivity and security.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Employee Internet Monitoring legal and necessary for my business?

Yes, Employee Internet Monitoring is generally legal, but laws vary by region, so it's crucial to understand local regulations (ACLU). Monitoring software can help track employees' web activity, bandwidth usage, and application usage, offering insights to improve productivity and maintain platform security. However, it's essential to strike a balance between monitoring and respecting employees' privacy.

How can I effectively monitor employee internet usage without invading privacy?

To monitor employee internet usage responsibly, establish a clear policy and communicate it with your staff. Focus on monitoring work-related online activities and use web filtering or data loss prevention tools to prevent access to inappropriate content or unauthorized file transfers. Be transparent about monitoring practices to maintain trust and avoid overly invasive methods like keystroke logging.

What are some of the best employee monitoring software options?

Popular employee monitoring software includes Time Doctor, ActivTrak, and Teramind. These tools provide a range of features like tracking time spent on tasks, monitoring app usage, and offering workforce management solutions. By comparing features, you can choose a tool that best aligns with your business needs and goals for increased productivity.

Can monitoring software help remote workers stay productive and engaged?

Absolutely! Monitoring remote employees' online activities can help you identify areas for improvement and provide tailored support. Tools like terminal servers or remote desktop solutions facilitate remote workforces, while features such as video recordings and behavior analytics help optimize remote employees' performance. Remember, it's essential to communicate expectations and foster a culture of trust.

How can I use the data from employee monitoring tools to improve my business?

Monitoring tools give insights into employees' time management, app usage, and web browsing habits. Use this data to identify trends, detect insider threats, and allocate resources more efficiently. Implement training programs, set performance benchmarks, and consider offering incentives for increased productivity. Ensure you use the data ethically and transparently to maintain a positive work environment.

Can My Employer See My Internet Activity?

Yes, your employer can use various workplace surveillance software and hardware to record everything you do online. Employee monitoring solutions use sophisticated tracking technologies, like geolocation, keystroke logging, and screenshots, video recording. All this data can be stored via cloud computing and can be run through complex algorithms to anticipate insider threats, measure individual and team productivity, as well as retrace various steps leading to any problems or data leaks.

2024.05.14 21:36 weirdballz STUDY TIPS FOR ATI: How I achieved a level 3 on my ATI exams

I would like to share some tips that helped me do well on all my ATI exams! For reference, I got a level 3 on all but one ATI exam! Fundamentals was my first ATI exam ever which I got a 2, and it helped shaped the way I continued to study for ATI. I hope this helps anyone who is either struggling with ATI or wanting to increase their scores.
How I utilized ATI textbooks:
Practice Exams/Dynamic Quizzes
Extra Tips for ATI
Outside resources
Test taking prioritization strategies you have to understand:
Other test taking strategies
Itā€™s true that ATI will test you on things from other courses (some you havenā€™t taken yet), but the majority of it will be over the course you are studying for. The goal isnā€™t to get every question correctly. The goal is to use prior knowledge and test taking strategies to help you at least narrow down to 2 answer choices, and hopefully choose the right one. After doing a bunch of questions, you start to see patterns and understand how ATI wants you to choose the answer.
I know this is a lot, but I just wanted to be as thorough as possible. Please let me know if you have any questions! I am happy to help! šŸ˜Š

2024.05.14 21:36 CherryTheDragon Am I (21F) overthinking about my boyfriend's (20M) future plans?

I'll give some background to our relationship as I believe it'll give some context as to why I believe I'm overthinking. Me and my boyfriend met around 5 months ago and started dating around 1 month ago, and we're also long distance. We both also got out of longterm irl relationships relatively recently (I ended mine in January of this year, he ended his around 7 months ago). I'm so much happier now than I was in my last relationship; he treats me well, is very attractive, is always open to communication, and clearly loves me to bits. I am not insecure in the fact that he loves me, however this relationship is a lot different in terms of career goals and future plans than my ex. My ex was college educated, knew exactly what he wanted to do in life, and had just recently gotten his "big boy" job. For reference by the end of this year I will have graduated with a bachelor's degree and I'm currently looking for jobs in my field. My current bf, however, when asked about it, doesn't know what he wants to do with his future and has never been to college or plans on it. He has had many jobs in the past, but has recently been unemployed ever since the passing of his mother. Since his mother died, it has had a significant effect on his mental health to the point where he has been able to recieve disability benefits because of it. (He's been diagnosed with prolonged grief disorder as well as ADHD. His mental issues have rarely been a problem in our relationship as well; We've had a couple bumps along the road but we're always able to talk it out.) He also says there is no point in working currently since he gets more money from disability than if he were to go get a job. (He lives in the U.K. if that helps give perspective). I have emphasized the fact that if we were to move in together if he would have to do some type of work and has said he has no issue with that. One part of me is saying not to self sabotage myself so early, and that we are both young and trying to figure out what we want to do, and that that is normal (even I don't exactly know what job I want to do with my degree) but another part of me is terrified that I will be stuck with someone who is a leech in the future, even though I adore him. Any advice at all is helpful!!!

2024.05.14 21:29 illmatic_symphony Only thing that will help is change

I really want to find success in a way that allows me to be myself.
I'm manic depressive, lately depression leaning. I stopped taking meds, i kinda think i should stay on em given my latest bouts of depression
More because I'm not happy with my career, country, how my dreams goals and aspirations aren't being entirely realised. I don't see an escape.
Im always unhappy in relationships. As much as there are valid things that have bothered me about past r.ships, I'm certain that I'm engrossed by this sadness to where i will not be able to be close with anyone.
Im shouting for change. Im actioning change. Change is not happening for me.
Im so sad and i don't like how this story is playing out.
Im 30M, diagnosed bipolar 11 years ago, manic depressive all my life it seems.

2024.05.14 21:28 avpd_squirrel Jack of all trades, master of none

Does anyone else sometimes finds themselves just googling and copy-pasting solutions from stackoverflow? Debugging errors without thinking too much but rather just pasting the error into search bar or AI assistant? Running commands without fully understanding what they do? Hopelessly reading page after page until you find someone with the same problem and a solution?
I know it's nothing new. There are many memes around it and anyone who ever coded or configured any new software know exactly what I am talking about.
However, now as a working professional with master degree in CS and multiple years of experience as a software engineer I came to conclusion that my job would be much more enjoyable if I was more confident in what I am doing. If I could be expert in the technology I work with. I ask myself why does it have to be this way.
I believe it's related to the job market and employers expectations. In other fields, people specialize much more. For example dentists learn how to treat teeth and they can work their whole life treating teeth without worrying they will be asked to perform a hearth surgery at any point.
Software engineering is different. You see jobs that requires knowledge of backend, frontend, database, cloud, linux and optionally ML. Not to mention each of these are huge areas on their own.
Why can't I just become expert in Java, learn its libraries, frameworks and build tools in details and be hired? And work with team of people who would handle other things? I guarantee the product would be much better and all people involved would be less stressed at work.
But no. IT companies, the most valuable companies in the world with insane profit margins can't afford to pay more people.
They can't afford to lose time either. Everything needs to be done fast. Suppose you encounter some new technology that you need to use in work and you are not familiar with. In other fields, they would slow down, provide you formal training for working with this technology and then you would know exactly how to use it properly.
In software engineering? Figure it out. Google around. You don't need to learn it in depth. No one has time for that. Just run this command from stack overflow with 3 upvotes. Just get it done.And this kind of workflow is accepted accross the whole organisation, from juniors to seniors to managers. It's accepted accross the industry.
And if you want to do it properly or learn more about it, you are free to do so in your own time. Oh no. Not only that you can, it's expected of you. On top of working overtime to meet deadlines, the industry expects you to work on hobby projects and grind leetcode. Also, get some certs, it will help your career.
Have I just chosen wrong career path? I am not completely against learning, I enjoyed it in school. But the more I am thinking I didn't enjoyed learning itself. I enjoyed knowing. I was happy when I learned something and then I applied it on the exam and got a good grade.
But in work, it seems like I am learning directly on the exam. It's stressful and I after I finally learn and apply, I am quickly off to the next problem.
When I was still a student, this approach seemed exciting and full of freedom. But now when I am supposed to give estimations for my work and guarantee certain level of quality I feel like I am on thin ice most of the time.
Not to mention I don't even know who I am anymore. I work with so many different technologies that labeling myself as Java developer (my original career goal) wouldn't be true. I also wouldn't perform too well on Java Developer interview since my focus had been split accross too many other areas in past years. Obviously I improved in all of them, yet, I mastered none.
I am not sure if this makes any sense. I guess my issue overall is that I have to handle many things and don't have time for them.
Does anyone else have this experience? Do you honestly enjoy it? Or would you like it if the industry slowed down a little and allowed people to work slowly but with more confidence? Does it all feel rushed to you, too? Or am I just a bad software engineer?

2024.05.14 21:28 Ultravis66 Tips and Tricks on how to stay motivated and be successful on your Keto journey:

Recently I have been seeing a lot of posts about getting stuck at X weight, or ā€œI cheated and now I am out of Ketosis.ā€ So I wanted to share my journey with you and what has helped me go from where I was, 343 lbs at my heaviest, down to 280lbs as of this week the last time I weighed myself. Today I am lighter than I have been in over 15 years! I still have a long way to go, and my end goal is 200 lbs, because I want to be thin and attractive and I want people to respect me and not judge me because I am fat, just like you probably reading this right now. Well, I am here to try and help!
My journey started with an initial health scare from when I visited the doctor back in 2019, as you are all probably aware of, pre-diabetic, stage 3 fatty liver, ectā€¦ I had known about Keto diets in the past, when I was younger, the low carb diet at the time was Atkins, and I had used this diet before to keep my weight in check as I have always struggled with my weight, but that was back in my early 20s. My solution to fixing my health problems (and weight problem) was to go back on a ketogenic diet.
In 2019, I went through the struggle of getting my body in ketosis, dealt with keto flu, low energy, and was able to overcome those challenges and get on a good track of staying low carb. I managed to do this for about a year before I started to slip. It started with small slip ups here and there ā€œa few Doritos wont hurt, its just a hand full.ā€ ā€œA small piece of cookie wont hurt.ā€ Before I knew it (mid 2022), I was kicked out of Ketosis and craving high carb foods again and back into old eating habits. I went from 343 down to 283 then back up to 312 lbs, Darn! I was losing the battle...
Then in 2023, I started having health issues again, which I wonā€™t go into details, and I wanted to get my health in check for good. What was needed, in my opinion, was a fundamental shift in the way I (we) view food. We need to look at food as an essential building block and an energy source for our body and get out of the mindset of looking at food for comfort and enjoyment. This is not an easy thing to do and is probably the hardest thing I have ever done next to getting an Engineering Degree, but if you can master this one thing, you will be hugely successful in your journey to losing the weight and being healthy.
Step 1: Small steps and Logging
My first piece of advice is start small. Yes, you are impatient and yes you want to be thin RIGHT NOW! I get it, but this wonā€™t happen overnight. This is a long process that takes a long time. You are fighting an uphill battle. You are probably surrounded by people eating all kinds of high carb foods, you probably got that skinny friend/relative that can eat anything and stay thin (NOT FAIR! I totally get it..). The first thing I recommend is track absolutely everything you eat. Lose it is only $3 bucks/month (best money I ever spent). Do not try and diet yet, just track what you are eating. Eat a cookie? Log it! Eat an entire party bag potato chips? Hey donā€™t sweat it! But LOG IT! Get into the habit of logging absolutely everything you put into your body no matter what it is, and donā€™t judge yourself for your bad eating habits, donā€™t worry you and me, we are going to fix this together!
After about a week (maybe 2 weeks), make a small changeā€¦ I was eating about 250 net grams of carbs per day, so I set a reasonable goal for the next weekā€¦ Lets see if I can get that down to 150 net/day for a week. One week goes by, easily beat it! All it took was cutting some bread out of my diet as well as rice and potatoes. Next step, 100 net/day. Weeks goes by I was at 120 net/day. Darn! I tried my best, but next week, Iā€™m going to do it! Next week goes by I was at 99 net/day. Yes! I did it I hit my goal. Letā€™s see if I can do it again and again. 2 more weeks go by, and I was down to 80 net/day without hardly trying. Then I lowered my goal to 50/day and that is when it started to get hard. Now I had to cut that slice of toast out of my diet with my morning eggs. I had to cut that bowl of rice out with my meat. I had to really start making some hard changes, and I wasnā€™t always successful during the first month. I went over and hit 60/day, but I kept at it, kept logging. Today I average 21 Net/day carbs (not too bad right). The best part about the second time I got myself into Ketosis, there was ZERO side effects. No keto flu. I did have electrolyte imbalances for a while but was easily fixed with upping potassium and adding more salt to my food.
The key here is set reasonable goals for yourself that you know you can beat, you wont always be successful, but keep at it. Breaking bad habits is hard, but if you keep logging, and you keep at your goals, eventually you will break it!
Step 2: Eat only nutrient dense foods
This goes back to looking at food as building blocks and energy for your body, make sure every food you eat is to fulfil a specific nutrient requirement. You need more potassium, eat more kale/spinach, need to get your vitamin D up, eat some smoked salmon. Over time, your taste buds will change, and you will start really enjoying the foods you are eating. I absolutely LOVE kale now!
Also, this includes keto-friendly foods like bacon. I do not eat bacon. There is almost no nutritional value in eating it, so why eat it? Eat some steak instead.
If I eat a food with Carbs, it will be a very nutrient dense food and because my body needs those nutrients. What kind of foods am I talking about? Here are some examples:
73% + or more cocoa chocolate
Berries (strawberries for example)
Lemons/limes
Nuts and seeds of all kinds.
All kinds of vegetables like broccoli, spinach, kale, Peppers, Onions
The Key to staying in ketosis when you are consuming foods with carbs is moderation. Yes that 70% chocolate has sugar in it, but I eat one square MAX per day. That one piece of chocolate has 4.7 grams of net carbs and 2 grams of fiber. There is plenty of room in my daily carb limit to allow for it. As long as my weekly average total carb intake stays under 25 grams/day, I am good (my personal set goal).
Step 3: NO CHEAT DAYS!!!
Once you are in the groove, and you got your carb intake to your set goals, be EXTREMELY strict with food intake. Allow for ZERO cheat days and have a ZERO tolerance policy on any "empty carb" food. What do I mean by empty carb? any food that is high in carbs and has no nutritional value, like cookies, chips, ice-cream ect... Cheating will get you kicked out of ketosis and is the path back to bad eating habits and putting the weight back on and that is exactly what happened to me! Just donā€™t do it. We are not eating for comfort anymore; we are eating because our bodies need this specific nutrient. This is the goal.
Step 4: Fasting
You donā€™t need to do this right away, make sure you get yourself into the habit of logging, and eating foods that are nutrient dense and make sure your body is in ketosis first. Like with before, donā€™t try and jump headfirst into fasting, take small steps and build on it every week. Start with a shorter duration fast once per week, for 12 hours, then increase slowly until you hit 18 hours. The end goal here is twice per week for a minimum of 18 hours. If you get hungry and you cant do it, donā€™t beat yourself up over it, its hard! Your body will fight you and want you to eat. Try again the next week with your set goals. Just make sure you are eating those nutrient dense foods we talked about above. As your body becomes more and more fat adapted, this will get easier and easier.
I am currently fasting for 24 hours on Mondays and Tuesdays. Monday morning I eat 2 fried eggs and drink my coffee with half and half then fast until Tuesday morning. Then on Tuesday morning, I will eat 2 fried eggs and that same coffee without eating until Wednesday morning. It is currently Tuesday and I have not eaten since this morning. I wonā€™t eat until tomorrow morning.
To prep your body for long fasts that will allow your body to eat itself with ease is making sure you are LOADED with TONS of nutrients, (remember step 2?). Saturday and Sunday are prep days for that fast. I eat dark leafy greens, like Kale, and Spinach, cheesy broccoli I make myself, peppers, ect... I eat lots of nuts and seeds, Walnuts, pecans, brazil nuts, peanut butter, steak, Smoked raw salmon. I will eat a little bit more than my metabolic rate, about 200 calories more (2500 cal). I also generously salt everything so that I am around 4000 MG for the day. This will load your body with potassium, magnesium, and sodium. Then I go into my fast on Monday. Perfect for me since I need to be at work on Monday and Tuesday.
If you do this, when you go into your fast, you will have plenty of nutrients/electrolytes for your body to just eat your own fat off your body. You probably wont even feel hungry for many hours on end, but if you do get hungry, drink lemon in water, or apple cider vinegar to suppress your hunger.
Now, the key to coming out of your fast is to NOT over-eat. Eat VERY SLOWLY (I cannot emphasize this enough). Take bites, chew, put your fork down, wait 10-30 seconds after you swallow, then take another bite. Eat high fat foods like cheese, eggs, peanut butter. This will help you feel satiated. Try and keep your first meal out of a fast at around 1000 calories.
Step 5: Exercise
Try and add exercise into your weekly routine and this will help you lose the weight even faster, but is not necessary to lose the weight. Exercise is really good for you anyway. For me personally, I picked up swimming (I swim 2 miles 3x per week now), and I feel great afterwards, all those endorphins! So why not?
Step 6: For life!
What do I mean for life? What I mean is that you need to view keto as a for life plan. The key to staying healthy is eating healthy. So why ever go back to your old way of eating? On this diet, I feel great, my libido is way up and I have tons of energy to do things! I want to go outside and work on my car! I want to go to the gym. When you are eating healthy, you will feel amazing, you will have moments of euphoria, you will be happy, you will have an amazing sex life! That guy/girl you like at the gym will notice you. You will no longer be ignored! You will also be smarter, your mental clarity will be better than ever, you will be able to focus on your goals!
Final piece of advice: You will failā€¦ yes you will fail at your goals over and over again, I still fail my goals once in a while. Last week I had a day where I went up to 30 net/day carbs and ate 2600 calories (DARN!), but I didnā€™t give up! I wont give up! Sometimes you will slip, but as long as you set reasonable goals for yourself and tighten those goals solely over time, and you keep at it, you will be successful in the long run, and you will get the weight off! Donā€™t focus on the scale, but focus on getting into healthy eating habits, focus on exercising and I promise you, the weight will come off!

2024.05.14 21:22 bawolf Looking for advice to make images more fun for my SD based game.

Over a year ago I made a game called Doodlocracy with the goal of making a fun experience to introduce people to stable diffusion. The game mechanic largely revolves around users getting a prompt, drawing it, and then stable diffusion mis-interpreting their drawing in funny ways.
I'm looking for advice to help make these images more coherent so that the game is more fun. Sometimes the results hit, but often they're just too deep fried.
Right now my pipeline is pretty basic.
Since I've been out of the loop for a bit. Are there any suggestions for new best practices or tools that I can use to improve this experience?
To give context through some examples.

2024.05.14 21:10 cats_in_mars Ask the Team Q&A 05/14

Q&A session with LifeByKing on discord.
Will we be able to change the wall height in build mode at the start of early access?
Yes, you will
For jobs uniform, are the same uniforms applied to everyone or can we set different uniforms per job title?
Yes Uniforms can be set for different roles within a job and per title!
Can we have the ability own more than one lot
Not at the start of Early Access. We're definitely exploring 'real estate management' part of the game. We recognize builders are a huge part of the life sim community and tying in building to gameplay is a key goal.
Is there plan for separated sexual and romantic orientation?
At the start of Early Access, we do seperate gender from body type.
We currently do not separate sexual from romantic but this is a good suggestion we will look at during Early Access.
What kinds of social events can we expect on the launch of early access?
Through the in-game mobile phone, you can set up Birthday Parties, Weddings, House Parties, Housewarming, Beach Party, etc. You can also arrange to go on Dates.
Will LBY support terrain editors like Atlas or Gaia for world making?
We will be evaluating even more region-editing during Early Access. That decision will be informed by the roll out of region-to-region travel.
I noticed in a video that lots can overlap to some extent. How far can we push this? Can we make it look like buildings are touching each other?
Yes, we have some experiments internally with terrace housing. Much more on this during Early Access.
Would be possible to have different wall thickness in a build mode?
You can add objects or trim to the walls, but the wall thickness is a great suggestion. Pls add that to ā requests
Are there plans for a fleshed-out criminal career?
Potentially. This is under discussion.
Will it be possible to increase multiple skills at once, either through quests or performing activities?
Yes , you can easily script additional skill gains for any interaction.
With painting/drawing skill do will characters be able to draw and paint images that you put in the game(asking if we are able to add png or jpg images in)?
At the start of Early Access, you can have a character take a picture (using the in-game phone camera) and then have them paint that picture using an easel and hang that painting on your wall.
RE: Ability for you to add png / jpg images - this is likely possible via mods.
Can we change the Delivery Van?
Currently, no. But that should be an easy thing for us to add to the modding list during Early Access. Good suggestion, thank you!
Can the character we are currently playing, be invited to a wedding by a character we are currently not playing, so that we can attend as a guest?
Yes! You can even setup a wedding for a story and play each character by right clicking on them any time if you wish. Combine this will entering your own dialog live as you play and you can make an entire unique wedding experience/ story.
In regards to the demographic creator, will it be possible to set a demographic as joinable or not joinable? What I mean is, if you have a demographic of say goths or vampires (or some kind of social group), it would make sense for it to be possible for a character to become part of that demographic through gameplay....on the other hand if the demographic is say a Latino demographic, it wouldn't make sense for characters to be able to join that demographic through gameplay.
It's not currently possible, though that may be possible through "Traits" which you can set as rewards for quests.
This wouldn't change their appearance, but it would be able to add other things like Needs adjustments.
Is the team thinking of adding free placement for tattoos, beauty marks,piercings,etc.?
You can freely move a tattoo placement within their specific "body region" like torso = all over the torso, arms = all over the arms, beauty marks all over the face.

Multiplayer ā€“ Matchmaking and Events [All Platforms]
Weā€™ve updated Safety Ratings in Featured Multiplayer by increasing the number of previous races the Safety Rating uses to determine your rating from 10 to 20, and by making on-track collisions more impactful to Safety Rating. Changes will take effect after your first race in Update 8. In addition, weā€™ve improved the matchmaking algorithm to search for a narrower range of Safety Ratings compared to your own. For example, players with an 'S' Safety Rating should no longer be matched with players who have 'E' and 'D' Safety Ratings. Groups will be connected to matches based on the player with the lowest Safety Rating. Weā€™ve updated Featured Multiplayer events to use consistent weather conditions and avoid unpredictable weather transitions mid-race. [1750733] Removed the 2020 KTM X-Bow GT2 and the 2020 Lamborghini Essenza SCV12 from the Forza GT Series and added them to the Modern Factory Racecar Series in Featured Multiplayer.

Developerā€™s Note: Weā€™re currently working on recategorizing Forza GT racecars into separate spec divisions and expect to push these changes into the game this summer. Corrected an issue where the 1969 Lola #6 Sunoco T70 MkIIIB was eligible for the Vintage Le Mans Prototypes Series rather than the Prototype Group Racing Series. [1731588]

Increased the track material luminance to be more physically correct, improving the overall contrast and color saturation of the track. This affects newly released tracks as well as future track updates. Maple Valley has been refreshed with ā€œMobil 1 Presents Maple Valleyā€ race day branding, which includes new track signage featuring Mobil 1. Fixed multiple pop-in zones across the entire Maple Valley track. Fixed multiple pop-in zones across the entire Mid-Ohio track. Fixed numerous areas across Mid-Ohio where textures were displayed at low resolution or stretched. Placed a barrier along the pit exit at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course.

Livery Editor[All Platforms]
Introduced a Vinyl Material tool to the Livery Editor which can be used to uniformly adjust all vinyl materials on a car from matte (non-reflective) to glossy (reflective). This includes a reset option to revert all vinyls to match car paint glossiness. Imported designs from Forza Horizon 5 using its similar feature will automatically inherit these values. When removing a livery from a vehicle, the color will now be reset to the default manufacturer color instead of the color when the player purchases it.

2024.05.14 21:01 NorthbyFjord 26[M4F] UK/Anywhere ā€“ Looking for the one

Hei, hi and hello!
Iā€™m Onsie Onsfjord or Fjord feel free to call me whichever is not mind to me.
Iā€™m a 26-year-old English Norwegian whoā€™s mainly lived his whole life in the United Kingdom and graduated from university with a degree in Computer Networks and is now working as a DIE for the NHS (Digital Infrastructure Engineer).
Caught you off guard with that job title acronym huh? Yeah, trust me when I first started it had me in fits of laughter, but you get used to it after a while.
So a bit about me; - Iā€™m an introvert and tend to avoid public crowds, events and such and just try to vibe with friends on a nice game of anything (which youā€™ll see below) - Iā€™m an avid IT nerd and will most likely remain this way for my whole career as IT is my education and career at this point - On top of IT you guessed it Iā€™m also a very big avid ā€œgamerā€ I mainly play PC and PS5 games with my current interests being in Helldivers 2, Star Wars: The Fallen Order, and Jedi: Survivor amongst a few other things like WoW, CoD, SWTOR and so on. - I love learning, whether it be history, game lore, languages, cultures, etc. You name it, and Iā€™ll probably be interested in it (Trust me, you give me a flag of any country, and Iā€™ll be able to tell you the countryā€™s name and political structure. - Iā€™m also an avid book reader and youā€™ll most likely see my shelf full of different manga from all types of genres, I donā€™t particularly watch anime, I mainly read instead because I find it more ā€œinterestingā€ for better or not. (Not that I'm opposed to watching it) - Iā€™m trying to learn to cook myself but not very good at it as my most recent attempt I ended up giving myself food poisoning so itā€™s sufficient to say you will have a big gamble if youā€™d like me to cook ha-ha. - I do watch football from time to time and do support a few clubs from around the world (mainly northern Europe, the UK, and the US) feel free to guess if youā€™d like! - Iā€™m currently on a VLCD and have lost about 2 stone within 1 month which Iā€™m super super happy about.
In terms of looks and such Iā€™m what an average 26-year-old would look like who is 6ā€™1/6ā€™2 with a picture on request.
Please donā€™t judge too much as Iā€™m still working on improving myself.
What am I about? Iā€™ve always made it a goal to help, care for, and support those close to me, whether it be friends, old friends, or the equivalent of my family. Theyā€™ve been there for me, and Iā€™ll go hell and back for them as theyā€™ve stood by me through thick and thin, even through the loss of other close friends; theyā€™ve picked me up and brushed me down and set me straight to which I will always forever be in their debt and have helped them being.
Whilst Iā€™ve been shot and backstabbed by many of those who I thought were close to me I just try and see the positive and avoid the unnecessary drama and arguments as life is just way too generally short for that kind of stuff and we should all get along with each other in my mind.
What am I looking for? I apologize if this comes off as really picky - Someone in the realm of the US, Canada or Europe - Someone between the age of 20 to 28 years old - Someone who has an interest in IT, manga, gaming, and such (Itā€™s easier to talk to people with the same interest Iā€™ve found though you donā€™t need to work in IT at all) - Just be a kind honest individual who I can back and vice versa. Be there for each other.
I am looking for a monogamous and serious relationship and not a friendship, however, Iā€™m fine with starting out as friends whilst getting to know each other etc.
The end? Well, Iā€™d like to say that this was the short and sweet version of myself without giving much more away about me but hey hopefully youā€™ve stayed this far and if you have, I have a very small simple request for you!
If you do decide Iā€™m someone youā€™d like to get to know and all of that stuff then when messaging me, please make a somewhat attempt of an introduction (Iā€™m not asking for the mass of paragraphs or anything) just a hi, your name (doesnā€™t have to be your real name), where youā€™re from, how old are you, what you do, hobbies, etc and weā€™ll go from there!
Low-effort chats & messages will be removed also, so I know that youā€™ve made it this far please put your answers to this question (wrong answers donā€™t matter, itā€™s what is attempted counts)
ā€œI was born in the winter on a remembrance day, which day was this?ā€
Take care and hope to see your message šŸ˜Š

2024.05.14 20:58 Amygdala5822 Full Body 3-Day Lifting Routine with Extra Accessory Day

Hi everyone! Below is a full body routine I made. I work full time and have a busy schedule, so my goal is trying to reduce time spent at the gym while still having a solid workout that hits each muscle at least twice per week. I am shooting for around 5 exercises per day, since I usually start getting unproductive and fatigued after that. Please let me know if you have any comments!
My personal info: 25, Male, 5ā€™10ā€, weightlifting for about 6 years. Bench: 255, squat: 285, DL: 345.
I start every day with strength focused PPL compound lift (deadlift, squat, or bench). The next 4 lifts during the day are mainly compound lifts focused on hypertrophy . So for example, the first day has deadlifts (Pull) as the main strength lift. Then I have 2 Push and 2 Leg focused hypertrophy exercises. My thoughts are that for Pull muscles, you will hit them once per week for strength and twice per week for hypertrophy. The fourth day would be for accessory lifts that can be tweaked for whatever you feel needs some extra attention.
Iā€™d love to hear your thoughts!

2024.05.14 20:51 Throwaway827827282 Players, whatā€™s your favorite trope so far?

For example, mine is one of my past lives, Dustin Callaway.
36, a twin, up and coming country artist, offed himself (ODā€™d) after his oldest daughter died of disease. Wife was his middle school sweetheart, married at 20. First daughter at 21. Had 7 kids, a ranch, 2 cars, 6/7 nieces and nephews by 33. Perfect career earnings by the time he was mid 20s. Oldest daughter got sick at 13, passed on at 15 from sickle cell disease after years of treatment. Went into a spiral after his loss, began taking pills, ended up in jail for a year after a public intoxication charge, got out at 35. Spent less time with the people around him before he fatally ODā€™d a year later.
Child loss sucks. RIP man

2024.05.14 20:51 AI_technologies Why do we need AI as a financial advisor?

Highlight the following benefits: This is my personal case study, But you may disagree with me!
Budget Planning: AI analyzes your spending habits much more deeply than you might on your own. This leads to tailored recommendations and insights you wouldn't uncover manually. In addition, it can process massive amounts of financial data, like budget plans, spending analysis, and savings suggestions, in seconds.
On a separate note, I want to mention the fight against impulse buys. AI eliminates emotional spending triggers often associated with human budgeting. It sticks to the data, promoting financial discipline.
Here's a prompt you can use:
"Create a budget template that will work with my income and spending habits. I want something I can easily track and modify." 
Accounting and Tax Compliance: Modern platforms track changes in tax rules and legislation in real-time, alerting you to updates that could affect your life and work. This reduces the risk of non-compliance and potential penalties. If you set up your assistant intelligently, you may even be able to prevent problems in some cases.
And, unlike a real financial advisor, AI platforms are noticeably cheaper and available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Here's a prompt you can use:
"Explain the key financial ratios and how to calculate them. Provide examples of how to use them to assess my business health." 
Investment Management: AI is increasingly important in trading, as financiers make trades using algorithms. And if the best experts are using it, why shouldn't we? AI platforms are trained on vast amounts of data, allowing us to identify patterns humans might miss. This helps ensure the integrity of financial data and reduces costly errors.
In addition, some platforms can assess risk tolerance, financial goals, and market conditions to generate customized portfolio management recommendations.
Here's a prompt you can use:
"Summarize the current economic climate. Highlight key indicators (e.g., inflation, interest rates, GDP) and their potential impact on my investment portfolio." 
These points add to a common conclusion regarding one fundamental advantage: data-driven automation. AI can quickly handle routine and time-consuming tasks, allowing us to make more educated decisions or free up time for more enjoyable activities.

2024.05.14 20:50 InsolventTortoise WWYD

I'm deciding between these two schools. I got 60k total in scholarships from BU. I believe this puts my projected debt at ~250k. I got a full ride and the eminent scholar award (basically, a named scholarship that also comes with 5k in each of 2L and 3L if one establishes Ohio residency in 1L) from OSU. I believe this puts my projected debt (since I still have to take out loans for cost of living) at ~70k.
I have some interest in big law. And if I were to try to go into big law, I would be perfectly happy to do so in Boston. (I am also from New England and have lived in the Boston area for ~10 years. I hasten to add, though, that I don't have any legal connections despite having lived in the area of BU for some time. And on top of that, I have some desire to turn a new leaf with law school, and moving to another part of the country (e.g., to Columbus) might facilitate that.) BU has much better big law placement numbers than does OSU, and it and BC have solid Boston big law placement numbers in particular. I believe ~40% of graduates of recent BU Law graduating classes have gone directly to firms of 501+ attorneys (and ~60% of graduates who went directly to law firms did so), while only ~14% of graduates of recent OSU Law graduating classes have gone directly to firms of 501+ attorneys (and ~25% of graduates who went directly to law firms did so).
Two caveats about that. I know "501+ attorneys" is not equivalent to "big law." And I know most, if not all, law firms based in Ohio probably do not pay market, unlike many law firms based in Boston. And if I were to go to OSU, I would probably want to stay in Ohio.
In addition to the foregoing, I also have some interest in being a prosecutor, either at the state or federal level. And it's here where OSU's much smaller price tag appeals to me. For I don't need big law to be an ADA in Franklin County Ohio, for instance. Now, if I wanted to be a federal prosecutor, say an AUSA, it may help for me to have a few years of big law experience. Such experience might make me more competitive for such positions, and that militates in favor of BU again. But perhaps it would be feasible for me to get an AUSA position at some point in my career coming from OSU. And again, I would also be happy, I think, with just an ADA position.
Finally, my longterm goal is to be a judge, either a state or federal judge. I think being a state or federal prosecutor would help considerably with that, and certainly more so than being an associate in a transactional practice group in a large law firm for, like, 3-7 years or whatever. If that's my longterm goal, regardless whether I go to BU or OSU, maybe OSU makes more sense. But on the other hand, if I don't ultimately get a judgeship, maybe I'd be happier with the "plan B" careers that a BU Law degree can get one.
Given all of this, WWYD?

2024.05.14 20:50 Simplyserenityy I am done

My downfall according to my father began in the last two years. Our relationship had always been rocky but it was fine. In front of my family friends we always look so close and he is so proud of me...but I know he hates me for not being more, particularly these last two years. I am gonna be honest...my downfall really began in high school, but I think he doesn't want to say it. I put on the hijab in junior years of high school and he was okay with it, but said it was not something he sees as necessary. But because all the uncles and aunties praised me like oh she is so pretty but she covered up and started using me as an example in the the group.. like it was so embarrassing. ESPECIALLY the uncles like one of them turned to his wife and started lecturing her on the spot like you don't wear it and she is so much better...and then they all praised my dad (like this was his accomplishment) and therefore he was pound of it. Like yeah my daughter covers up....
But hijab was just the first thing...I started pushing way from all of it...the journey of med school and all. I never cared for it. When college started, I started as a pre-med student but I KNEW I wasn't living up to the potential of a future doctor. I didn't do any extracurriculars or volunteering (part of it was COVID during the first two years) but the last two...I should have done more. But I was enjoying living the muslimah life to much. I went class yes, but nothing else just straight home. I don't know I felt like I was living in a daze...I went to class, then home, study, sleep, pray, class, then home, study sleep, pray.... And my parents loved that. I know It now. They liked this version of me...this girl was the perfect girl...she does well in school but also looks and acts like a proper traditional girl, never talking to guys, never social media, like I didn't even know about reddit until last year and made my first post actually 4 months ago something about being lost after postundergraduate...funny thinking 4 months back I thought everything was fixed.
I gave into my impulses...I wanted to be married and live that period drama hallmark simple life *we have it hard, but through faith and God we will make it through* life. I also think I highly romanticized the idea of marriage and the saving yourself for him maybe to other people too far. In the last two years, I went into some weird vortex or something. I just wanted to be the girl who lived for him I think šŸ¤¦šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø....its silly and cringe and I know that now. But it made sense then okay, like in order for you to get into really good research labs, you have to work with others but I just couldn't...I wanted to never speak to another guy unless absolutely necessary life or death situation. Which again I understand is silly....šŸ™„ no need to rub it in like everyone else I know. So I kind of did something really bad... I knew what I was doing even though later I feigned innocence. I switched my major from a science major to art...[and if my brother sees this.....it is still a subject you could get into med school with just no longer that "it" popular major for premed for the last TimE AND I WILL DELETE THIS LATER SO STOP AND LET ME GET MY ANGER OUT AS I HAVE NO OTHER WAY OF GETTING IT LITERALLY STUCK IN THIS ROOM ALL THE TIME]
Anyway, in the last 7 months the number of fights here was record breaking. I finally stated I didn't want to do anymore schooling. At one point I told my mom how I don't really care for a career and wanted to be married to the love of my life and I accidentally showed her or I think I told her after watching a movie (I cannot remember there has been too much going on) my Pinterest board of things I want to do as a wife...stuff like baking for him, and making his lunch...and really embarrassing things. ANYWHO.. she told my dad and well ensue the yelling and crying. I started feeling bad...thus enter studying for the entrance exam and racking in volunteer hours. I even stated working part time for "customer experience" and to see "how life is difficult and giving up on a career is stupid." TO my girls who work retail wow just seeing how horrible it is. LIKE LITERALLY HARASSMENT IN RETAIL IS REAL My first week this customer started following me around the store and asked me to out and I said no and then he came back and would not leave literally had to to get security on him. then came entering the job field and then to tie it all together the topic of the hijab. My dad hates that I wear it because it stopped a lot of reputable jobs and uuhgjgghjhhj OMG MY GOD I CANNOT I THOUGHt WRITING THIS WOULD BE CATHARTIC AND IT WAS BUT NOW I AM DONE BECAUSE I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO MAKE SENSE OF THIS AND THERE IS TO MANY DETAILS AND NOTHING REALLY MAKES SENSE and I am tired of the yelling. I tried to explain that to be the girl who gets into top schools and all needs to be someone who has an extensive resume (not just the amount.. quality over quantity) but THEY DON'T EVEN LET ME OUT OF THE HOUSE LIKKEEEE MAKE IT MAKE SENSE. YOU CANNOT HAVE THE GIRL WHO IS BOTH AT HOME TRADITIONAL DOES NOTHING AND THE GIRL [WHO ALSO IS GOOD I think if there is any muslims girlie out here trying and living according to the Quran and Hadith and following your dreams to become a doctor to help people, then you do you I am not judging you at all..this is just my thing with my parents] who GOES OUT TO VOLUNTEER AND DOES INTERNSHIPS LIKE HELOOOOOOOO THIS IS NOT BACK HOME WHERE ALL YOU DO IS STUDY AND GET IN. YOU NEED TO BE AN ALL ROUNDER APPLICANT WHO DOES A LOT OF OTHER THINGS NOT JUST STAY HOME
But it's okay..since he SO BADLY WANTS ME TO BE THAT GIRL....I WILL. I HAVE NO ISSUE BEING THE GIRL WHO GETS THINGS DONE. WHEN I AM DONE, WE WILL SEE WHO WINS THIS FIGHT. THIS COMPLETE 180 THAT I AM ABOUT TO TAKE IS JUST GOING TO MINDBLOWING. YOU WANT NO HIJAB ME..FINEEEEEEEEEEEEE AND TO MY MOM WHO IS ALL "SINCE YOU WANTED TO BE MARRIED SO BADLY...WHY DIDNT YOU JUST BRING SOMEONE HOME" I WILLLLLLLL. I DENIED THEM IN THE PAST because I WAS SHY AND I WAS TRYING TO BE RESPECTABLE DAUGHTER FOR YOU........BUT LETS SEE HOW MANY YOU CAN TURN AWAY NOW

2024.05.14 20:49 TouristRound Five Essential Tips for New Team Leads

Hey everyone, I recently transitioned into a team leadership role, and I've learned a ton in just a few short months. I wanted to share some advice for those of you who might be new to this kind of position.
Here's what I've found most helpful:
  1. Communicate Clearly and Often: One of the most important roles as a team lead is to ensure everyone is on the same page. Regular updates, clear instructions, and open channels for feedback can make a huge difference. Donā€™t assume everyone knows whatā€™s going onā€”overcommunicate if you must.
  2. Delegate Wisely: You might be tempted to take on everything yourself to make sure it's done right, but thatā€™s a surefire way to burn out. Trust your team. Delegating not only helps you manage your workload but also empowers your team and helps them grow their skills.
  3. Be Approachable: Create an environment where your team members feel comfortable coming to you with their ideas, concerns, and feedback. Being approachable and supportive builds trust and helps you catch potential issues early.
  4. Focus on Development: Invest in your team's professional growth. This could mean providing them with training opportunities, setting aside time for mentorship, or just having regular one-on-one meetings to discuss career goals. A team that feels supported in their growth will be more engaged and productive.
  5. Lead by Example: Lastly, the best way to lead is by example. Show the kind of work ethic, attitude, and integrity you expect from your team. Your behavior sets the tone for the whole team, so be the leader you would want to follow.
Would love to hear more tips from those of you who have been in this role longer. What else should new team leads keep in mind?
