Congratulations, which sport?
So you want to try create the right moments for deeper conversation, I think that would be more likely away from his mates? I don’t know them so just guessing.
With that in mind, maybe Google around for anything interesting or different happening in the area. A gardening or book faire, wine or coffee festival, anything relaxed. Then ask him if he wants to go. Ideally something quiet that has some walking around?
That might create helpful conditions.
Tricky, but you could take the approach of just putting it on the table:
"Hey, I have a weird random question… " And then ask if he thinks there is life elsewhere in the universe or what he thinks is going on with flat earthers or whatever. It isn’t bad to be a bit random in timing.
In terms of timing specifics though, you don’t want to do it in the middle of some other discussion, so you normally wait for a quiet moment or a lull in the current conversation. Typically depends on what’s going on. I find something like building puzzles together is great for this, because you’ve both got something to do but it’s not so intense as to block easy conversation that just meanders a bit. Just an example though.
When you are together, what are you normally doing? Long drives are easier to find ok moments, studying in the library or in the middle of a dentist appointment less so
You could try asking some deep questions, see what comes out of that.
Bright future! Stay on top of AI, it’s at minimum a tooling revolution but of course potentially way more.
Best of luck!
Exactly, if you choose to work for a company then that is in support and furtherance of that companies goals / operations.
We are not so helpless as we sometimes like to claim.
Yeah, that would really ruin the dating outcome we’re kinda shooting for I feel.
When I was thinking through the challenge of entering dating, little did I realize that we’d soon be exchanging murderer dodging tips.
Valuable knowledge no doubt but damn 😂
I’m not super into anime, no connoisseur by any measure, but I recently felt like there might be something great to watch in that area. I looked up highly rated anime and Frieren came up.
I’ve watched a few episodes and it seems, well there’s no question it’s well made and a great story, but it’s pretty heavy. Sad at times. Does it get happier and more fun, or is this the tone throughout?
If so I might have to try something else.
With his ethics there’s no way I’d let any company controlled by him attach itself to my brain.
I have a hard time imagining that for any profit driven corporation, but most especially him.
Only some people will get access I presume
Well, rather this than a bad release
I’ve been in similar situations with my children. Parents can’t be experts in everything, no matter how much we wish we could.
The evidence that you are a great parent is in caring and realizing when you are out of your area of familiar expertise, then seeking input to close that need.
The right thing to do is reach out to a professional or 2 and get multiple opinions, then weigh those opinions up with the child you know and love. Decide from there on what is a good course of action. An outside opinion often helps us with blind spots, but get more than one if you can.
Blind fury. Blind to someone’s faults, blinded by love. Poker blinds. Types of medical trials. Venetian blinds.
Getting angry at other well-established uses of words seems like fun.
Moved to Firefox some months ago, it’s fine. Small adjustment but browsers generally offer high interchangeability
Tough and getting tougher, we’re releasing a major system into live usage in 2 weeks and we’re nowhere near ready
Why is PCMag supporting more Twitter usage? It’s a poison, a platform for mass manipulation.
I usually go into hard ignore mode. Actively go out of my way to avoid them.
If you show any friendliness then you can end up dealing with being told they have a boyfriend, being called a creep or other names, making them uncomfortable because they’re obviously on the receiving end of unwanted attention regularly etc.
Just way easier and less stress to give a wide berth.
The CEO and his management team created this, they did not take care of the workforce, and they cultivated the most recent reputational damage.
