Hahah. This souphead makes me laugh. I love it when failures do all they can to prove why something doesn't work - based of the fact that it so clearly was applied wrong 🤡 And I do agree, being con…
Thank you. I will ask the op to insert these links into her other post. They are a good addenda and are a beneficial part of the record. We may make her post a part of our index as well. It is a very…
It’s good that you’re reflecting on past relationships - that’s what transforms them from painful failures into learning experiences. 1) In confronting your deep sense of unworthiness (which I totall…
I started out when everything was one app on a physical server. I don’t miss those days. I couldn’t tell you the amount of sleep and free time I lost due to hardware failures. Plus the begging finance…
24 hours makes sense when you consider their infrastructure scale. Rolling back ML models isn't like deploying a typical web app - you're dealing with massive distributed systems, model weights, and c…
Yep, Redshift observability is one of those things that should be easier, but ends up buried in system tables and tribal knowledge. Some practical tips that might help: 1. Build a lightweight monito…
Reaching $300k in profit usually doesn’t happen overnight, but here's how I got there: I started with a side hustle while working full-time. Having a steady paycheck allowed me to take risks without …

Started with minimal capital, no big savings, and had a 9-5 while working on my business. It wasn’t smooth, but I focused on learning, executing, and iterating. Failures taught me more than success ea…
As I said, whether you're 'avoidant' or 'anxious' because there is either a lack of emotional processing, or complete omitting of emotional processing. People that are 'avoidant' perceive time as fin…

Everything you wrote explains why you spent 3.5 years with no results. You didn't read the index and all of the comments, or you did but didn't think critically. You're banned for 90 days. If you st…

Hey there, 14 years of my life have been like this, lots of darkness, amazing bad luck, very bad relationships and connections with people, I lost all my friends, I lost trust to the world, everythi…
Or bad mouth him, blame your so called failures on bad parenting and how you needed an operation but he didn’t allow you to have one.
Good lord 😂 Are you saying you think their models make no attempt to account for these inaccuracies or that those attempts are abject failures?
Their idea of “success” is not what you should be trying to achieve. You need to define success for yourself. For me, success means having a career that I enjoy and pays the bills while giving me the…
For me, the fundamental issue with anxiety is that it takes me out of enjoying my imagination in the state fulfilled. All you desire is already within you. For example, the center of my wish right n…
This sucks. Best advise is block him entirely. Block every email, every text, every call. Any bills he is stuck with are because of his failures not your. You need to escape that abuse asap and never …
Thank you. I think as I'm getting older this feeling starts to get more intense because of that toxic impression that I'm running out of time. Not that these "failures" (for lack of better term) are…
Yup, yup, and YUP! They are trying to make me out to be the bad guy and themselves as the innocent little sad sack. Nah, not going to work. They can never take responsibility for their actions. THEY'R…
Yes exactly. I think I misunderstood the point of your post but I still agree with it after understanding better. And yes you are right. I got burnt out replying to post after post or comment after co…
Not in that sense, but she has very often in the past publicly talked about my failures to extended family and such and when confronted told me she did it because everyone apparently thought I was "so…
It’s a question I ask myself everyday. Some of the most meaningful art is born from suffering. Some of the greatest inventions required countless failures first. For the existence of love and light ar…
Thank you. :-) but how do we know when to choose a reality vs. allow intelligence...? Ive had lots of successful manifestations but failures too. Hard to tell
I think you're correct, if a bit pessimistic. The grievances are real, issues like men underperforming in schools is real but they need to treated as their own problems rather than a footnote to women…
The hardest part about dating is dealing with my own insecurities and negative beliefs that creep up on me in the quiet times between dates and texts. I’m getting better and recognizing it and fencing…
First off before we discuss "success", to answer your question, talking about "unsuccessful manifestations" contradicts the law of attraction to focus attention and energy to things we do want, which …
That is really a good one. I kinda started writing some on this but backed off a bit thinking about others situations. But yeah you have to be able to see your failures, accept them, and forgive yours…
I honestly can't tell this time around if it was really lack of interest or genuinely that he knew I had standards and knew he wouldn't or couldn't meet them, but it comes to the same, doesn't it? Thi…
Oh 100%. I believe they thrive in the feeling of contempt which sounds absolutely miserable. They certainly all seem to experience schadenfreude which is the enjoyment of other people’s failures and…
Staying away from sugar; and telling myself when I get up in the morning how strong, power, and capable I am, and how i will accomplish amazing things. Then when I look at recent failures from amazin…
How did you deal with discouragement/negative thoughts ? Like "It is impossible", "Nobody has ever done it" "This seems insane", "If I can do it why did I fail before" "It is going to take a lot of …
For me it was less about “hacks” and more about lowering the bar in a way that still counts. On bad days I stopped thinking in terms of full tasks and switched to tiny versions. Not “clean the room,”…
You’re not wrong. And this is one of the most frustrating systemic failures in mental health care. The hard truth is that a significant portion of how clinicians are trained to respond to suicidal ide…
Yeah, every situation has nuance so not sure how much value mine will have for yours, but I did do a retro and share the blame for granular failures that likely contributed to cracks in the foundation…
Curious about grandiose narcissism and failure though. I think that’s truly the key regarding LOC. During times of failure, do grandiose narcissists take the blame for their failures?
Absolutely not! This is child abuse. Your stepfather is a sadist and your mother is an Absolute failure to you for allowing this to happen. Please seek help from the authorities immediately. This is n…
i respect your decisions, but i disagree. i repeat my previous idea that people our age are a little bit fragile, and if you're "all or nothing" you're going to get nothing because to get to all requ…
I see. Maybe we can call it as 'Hey, you need counselling' if the reasons are close to being academic and career oriented. This way he might feel like it's not a mental health therapist, but a counsel…
Sounds identical to my situation except I think they were together before we split officially. He married her exactly 6 months to the date of our divorce. I seriously doubt my ex did the healing and s…
You have a human issue disguised as a dog issue. Your BF is neglecting their dog. This is a dog that cannot behave appropriately in society or at home. The good news is, that's largely fixable for mo…
What multibillion dollar industry? The kpop wave has made it so much easier for us? We beat their asses but half the men in this sub are upset about "the oxford study"..? This is exactly the type of b…
Put in 20 years. I'm the dumper. It was very hard and still is. We were very young and emotionally immature when we got together. We had a very non traditional creative relationship. But after a decad…
The house was more situational than planned. We were in an apartment together and just renewed our lease when an opportunity too good to pass up came along, and we went for it. That's a fair question…
I would agree but it's not from nowhere, look up dog food recalls of 2007. I had two dogs that suffered kidney failures and short lifespans (could be subjective but of the many dogs I've had these two…
I had children and I love them and they love me. Then I also lost a lot of weight with a GLP-1 prescription. I also had a series of career successes after a decade of career failures. I knew I’d hea…

Ice agents are the dregs of society, just absolute failures in life so they turn to this.
Don't tell them anything about your life including success or failures because they will weaponize it to mess with you. AP's are emotionally insecure narcissist adults, everything is conditional and …
