New guilty pleasure: Indian Matchmaking on Netflix

Weaning baby now (he is four months). I have a big freezer stash and it’s in the deep freeze so it will be good until next December. Is the better strategy to constantly give baby some breastmilk every day until I run out (like 8-10 ounces a day or something, mixed with his formula) or is it better to just give formula and save the freezer stash for if/when he gets a cold or something, and then mix it in liberally only then)?

What’s on your typical London hit list when hosting guests? Mine is outdated since having kids/pandemic (beyond the usual Borough Market museums etc). (Older) kid friendly suggestions also welcome if anyone has any. My guests will be here early June, so too early for Wimbledon.

Advice please! Heading on a long weekend, husband’s company is hosting an annual retreat for all employees (and plus ones). We are bringing baby and my dad is coming to babysit for 2 evening dinners we have to attend (one casual, one formal). There are lots of activities during the day and I have pushed back, saying husband can attend but I want to stay with baby so she can nap and also so my dad can spend time with her (not just while she’s sleeping). Husband argues that the “main” reason my…

*Making some generalizations here* Child, 12, started playing travel baseball last year. As we have got to know other families in the teams (last year and this) it seems there are far more divorced, and then married again, couples than we have seen in schools or other sports (child plays soccer and basketball). Spouse and I have never played baseball/softball and this is only child. I'm wondering if anyone has noticed anything similar. We live in middle America, fairly affluent neighborhood.

I need more “healthy” fitness influencers to follow (like ones with actual credentials, not trainers). Recently discovered Sohee Fit and love her content.

Also planning to get a book on Intuitive Eating as well.

What’s everyone up to this weekend?

Is anyone else’s employer panicking about the upcoming recession? Our CEO and CFO are starting to talk layoffs…this is after months of desperate recruiting and being short-staffed. Is anyone else experiencing this? I think we’re acting too early but maybe I’m off base here.

Hey everyone, I’m currently an environmental engineer, but my first job was at Accenture for 3 years as a functional tester mostly. It’s been 4 years since I left Accenture and I’m looking to get back into the tech and/or consulting space, but not as a tester. What path would you all recommend where I can be hired above entry level without having directly relevant experience?

Help! A recruiter for a tech company reached out re: a Product Strategy role and we had an intro call. She asked for my expected compensation and I gave what I thought was a reasonable range (happily above what I’m making now). Realised after the call that comp for a Director of Product Strategy is approx. £10k ($13k USD) higher than the max of my stated range. Have I totally screwed myself? Is there any way to reframe the conversation moving forward?

Working on applications for academic positions (tenure-track), and finding it extremely difficult to write a research statement that is not too close to my current research that hiring faculty would think I lack originality, but also not too far-fetched/unrealistic or on topics that I find interesting but has insufficient knowledge/expertise.

Any tips?
