Step 1) Find a good moral girl who is happy to be your wife Step 2) Wake up from dream

I don't even know how guys are getting married without prenup these days and asking "wife" permission to do certain things..

Imagine how many founder thought like you - "I'm obv. not counting on this product making me a full-time income" Because right now "context" your thinking is different. As soon as people taste the blood(success), it ain't this thinking anywhere. We are emotional being at core. Jealousy, greed, ambition affects everyone including Himalayan Monk.

People start with "hey I love this topic. Let me write about it and I don't care what anyone else think or fame or money"

*1-2 years later success

Same people "Let me write something so I can milk the cow. I stop writing about code but instead how to make cheese from the milk which I am about suck from the cow organically"

As soon as your "passion" becomes "full-time" job , it is over. Any way I have to find my cow. Cioa

I wonder these days if it was good idea to let everyone "write" on internet. Blogging seems like a plague these days... Look at me I am tech guru

War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength — George Orwell, 1984.

I have to wake up and pee 2-3 times a night. I put pillow under bed on my leg side and make leg side up. It is working so far. Every 4-5 hours from every 3 hours. I also trying Kegel exercise too. I can't stop drinking water before bed because I have acidity too and I can not sleep with dry throat :)

If a girl is beautiful and has already boyfriend/relationship then she doesn't want to hang out with other people and wait till clock hits 5 PM. Same can be said about married people but at least they will hang out sometimes. Single people especially guys want to hangout but as soon as all girls are gone, it becomes useless to stay. Personally I prefer we just stay stickily professional. But people do otherwise more often than not

1) Please read Fooled by randomness book. Your friend won Russian Roulette. You want to try too?

2) Your friendship is essentially over. Cherish the past and let him go. Find friends in near about your income bracket. Better if they are poor than you by some margin

3) Read Stoicism

4) Focus on you and your family's wellbeing. Blood is thicker than water. So stop wasting time on who is digging hole where and how much deep and look after your hole and start digging your own hole. Metaphorically !

I am sorry you said quit?? And then what? Something comfortable right? Let's go back in time, how did you learn to walk? Did you quit when you fell down first time? Was learning to walk comfortable?

Mate, remember obstacle is the way. Be grateful you supporting manager and good colleagues around you. Ask for help. No more quitting talk. Break down problem into pieces. Learn learn and grow. Don't squander opportunity given to you , trust me there 10 waiting outside for same opportunity. Good luck there :)

I am thinking this strategy. If anyone thinks, this is horrible please let me know.

1) I will create my bare minimum number below which I will not accept for X company.

2) I will ask company after successful interview : "What is the maximum you can give - final number?"

3) If that is number is less than 1) , end of discussion. I find another job. Not wasting any time

4) If 2 is slightly greater than 1, I will try to get better number by medium negotiation

5) If 2 is way greater than 1, I accept offer. Done

Did I miss something?

//My university has had a couple Prime Ministers//

//other than that, there is no real "prestige" to the university //

I am not sure what to say. Okay how many Prime Minsters from one university needed to count it as "prestige"? sorry for naïve query.

Remember from somewhere : "You are never as good as they think you are OR You are never as bad as they think you are"

Good day !
