Why are most tech people facing a dating crisis?- Grapevine

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

Recently under a post, in the comments, I saw someone brag about how he has slept with every new junior in almost every quarter. In another post's comment, I saw someone say how every girl he has met has a higher body count, and one of his friends got divorced because she was sending nudes to her ex on Snapchat. Someone also bragged about how she has dated and slept with some guys from the different companies. Another comment I read a long time back said how he has a physical relationship with some of the 'hot chicks' of his company. And this is just grapevine, and I'm not even including all similar things I read on Twitter and Reddit, of people bragging about having high body counts and sleeping with multiple colleagues. I am a bit confused. Is having a physical relationship with your colleague(s) a common thing in the IT Industry? or am I missing something?

Dating Scenes in Tech: High Body Counts and Modern Hookup Culture

Software Developer

Hard agree. Dating is a societal problem. Not a tech problem anymore

I've turned 27, roughly 3yoe earning 50k which is low but I'm upskilling. Currently due to layoffs, AI news and just a very unhealthy state of IT things are getting very depressing and I personally feel like I've already lost or missed in life. 
People are planning to get married around me everything is so sudden. 

People of grapevine, what advice would you want to give people like me who feel lost. 
Any general advice such as financial planning, lifestyle changes or just tech advice any advice which has helped you to live peacefully and comfortably would be greatly appreciated.

FOMO in tech

Advice : Please stop with the tutorial and enrolling in courses after course. Doesn't take you anywhere. Been there and done that.  
  
 You will end up with stupid clones which does seem like a value add in your resume. It's just there in everyone's resume.  
  
 Build one project, one solid project, maybe something to do with MFE. Not CRA react app but something with webpack if you prefer. Maybe a ecom app with seperate mfe for order and billing. Show the interaction between them, post on Twitter while you build. Share insights and maybe you will end up being in a recruiter's eye.

When I joined corporate world  in 2012, there were many 45+  and some 55+ folks among us..... 

Gradually I have been witnessing slow but steady change in demography.... After 10 years, I am rarely seeing any 55+ folks...and noticeable reduction in 45+ folks. 

My prediction is AI will make this slow change very steep in next 5 years and we would rarely see any average  but highly paid 45+ folks

Is unofficial retirement in corporate world decreasing year by year?

I am a middle class guy working as a senior engineer in one of the product companies. I belong from the north-east, and I am the only child in my family. 

Since covid, I was working in a wfh setup. Recently, my company has ended work from home for everyone, and I am supposed to move to Bangalore very soon or quit. 

I am an active user on all social media groups on Reddit, Fb, etc. For the past couple of months after seeing so much of negative news about Bangalore, Especially the high population, skyrocketing rents, the auto unions, corruption, cut-throat competition, discriminative news, traffic issues, etc. It makes me nervous to be honest. My wfh here was pretty chill, and I had a very limited social circle here, but was satisfied since I could spend most time with my mom and dad. 

Im very afraid now about what should I do next, shall I quit the job and search for wfh, or shall I make my move. I don’t have any acquaintances there, no friends, no idea about what I’ll be doing next, how to start house hunting, or job hunting. At this point I am miserable and overwhelmed to think about all of this. 

Anyone who has gone through all of these, If you can share your 2cents, experiences or thoughts, about how you dealt this phase. It will be really helpful for me at this point in my journey. Thanks in advance! 🙏🏻

Afraid about moving to Blr

Get a wfh job ... period. 
  
 Bangalore is overrated. 
  
 Better to move to noida...u will face less racism

Senior Consultant

Why can't I find a single decent guy in Hyderabad? Every guy I have met in-person has either a "ZERO personality techie" or is a "KTM driving influencer"

No nice decent men in this city or what? Delhi had great guys but after moving here, it is just sad.

Why is dating in Hyderabad so dead? ☠️

Dating apps have failed in the US. They will fail in India too. What next?

Tinder is failing. How do you want to date in future?

Get outside, meet people, talk to them
Zero confidence, hiding behind technology is bad for your future family too.
Do you want your kids to look up to dad/mom and say this is the confidence I aspire to have?

I have been using the prominent dating apps since quite some time, they work well initially but slowly the experience feels like a drag. It’s just a bunch of connections you talk to and it mostly ends up being a dead conversation. 

I realised when you engage with users who are genuinely looking to date it’s much easier to meet up since everyone is aligned. My hypothesis is that adding more friction on onboarding (not blindly adding this ofcourse) could weed out the users with low intent and leave you with a high quality user base. What do you guys think is the problem with dating apps in general?

P.S: this is a random 5am thought and I had to post it since I can’t stop thinking about it and wanted to hear other, and probably smarter, people out haha 🙌

Dating apps are broken?

I've seen a bunch of posts over the last month asking for tips on optimising profiles on Tinder / Bumble / Hinge to get to date / casual relationships / serious engagements.

Have people completely stopped relying on just walking up to people / meeting someone in person, asking them out and taking it from there? 

It's slow and requires effort but works better.  Zero chance of being catfished.  You can control the narrative and pace. 

Whats with being handicapped by the app?

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

Is it just me or is even a job at the best Tech companies just don’t make any sense for women? 

There are always women who have great family support or husbands that are understanding and encouraging. But generally why does it seem like becoming a senior woman in tech even at the best places is sort of unattractive and significantly increases your odds of “failure” outside of work e.g. divorce,having kids late? 

Interested for thoughts from both men and women.

27F Engineer: Software Engineering Not Worth It For Women?

Hmm, someone I know has more than 10+ patents(ex-broadcom), is a tech evangelist and an implementation advisor for a cloud tech, have 3 kids with fourth on the way. Sometimes you just need a supportive environment.

Hi Folks, 

I'm Pratham, Founder of Masters' Union. We're a new-age business school with a unique practitioner-led higher education, where courses are taught by CXOs of top companies in India.

I'd love to chat with you folks about my journey in building Masters' Union, my thoughts on the future of Education in India, and discuss my experience in building fast-paced businesses, amongst other things 

I'll be back at 5 pm and start answering your questions :) 
Ask away!

I am Pratham Mittal, Founder of Masters' Union. Ask me anything!

Hey Pratham  
  
 I was in the 2nd batch of MU  
  
 The placement report that is being marketed is not actually what happened in our cohort, why is it inflated or is there a specific way this was calculated ?

Founder

People in tech are in over their heads. There’s been an unsustainable inflation in salaries and somehow 20 somethings have actually started believing their skills are worth what they’re making

I speak to so many engineers who just with two years of experience are making 30-40 LPA packages. They actually believe they are better than people in say banking who make the same salary after 15 years of grinding it out. 

It’s all supply-demand. Supply will soon catch up to the demand. Salary normalization will happen. 

Your salaries may not grow for years if you don’t personally grow as well in skill set and become more valuable overall. 

At the least, don’t have an attitude about how much you make. Stay humble. Enjoy the good times while they are still here
