All of my childhood friends don’t talk to me and finding the people that I can connect with in terms of similar ambitions/mindsets is extremely hard especially as an adult. The term “crying alone in my Bugatti” is real and experiencing things that I’ve dreamed about (traveling, buying a house etc) isn’t as cool alone as it is with your best friends there with you

I've had to sacrifice things from my personal life since I wanted to put work first in order to advance my career. I'm working on getting a better balance back now that I'm at a more stable point in my career, so hopefully I won't have to sacrifice as much.

I am 33, still unmarried and no kids. I honestly have just felt like I don't have time to start a family. I am so career focused and working so hard to get up that ladder that I don't really have time for dating and all of that. Sometimes I do feel like I am missing out but I also feel very fullfilled in my career.

My fiancé’s family has a vacation planned at the end of June in Florida (small beach town about 45 mins from PCB). We’d be flying from California if we decide to attend.

I want to go for sanity reasons, but feel like it seems foolish too. What would y’all do? Just wait and see?

Quick survey: Do you guys think having a template package to envelope an ML model as an application would be helpful. The package could contain boiler plate template for unit test, docker image, CI/CD, database connectors etc and act as a starting point for doing that. Tech firms usually have that internally but limited options in open source.
