This is random, but I was wondering how everyone met their spouse or partner? My friends and I were talking and realized that, for those of us who didn't meet our spouses in college, we met our partners online or at the office. Is that true for you?

Is equally yoked the predecessor of Christian Mingle? 😂

I somehow manager to make it a few months without making any errors but I missed a small detail in a large project and my 1on1 went terribly because of it. Is this common?

Has anyone ever had to deal with a situation where the main product of the company has been built in a way that makes it very tough to scale, adapt to new use cases and add new features? A number of employees across different teams are looking to make the case that we should consider remaking a second, leaner version of it that can allow us to be more flexible and competitive with the growing number of cheaper alts. Also keen to hear about "known companies" that had to make this kind of move.
