Teaching music practice does wonders in this regard. :)

Depends if you consider it pure raw material (I think it is) that you can use to convey something of your own or if you can relate to some point to it (and do the same, but to some further extent). At a rather utilitarian level, one wouldn&

Pure material for art, rather.

It's abstract per construction. There's no intent, no meaning, no purpose, no origin, no artist into these.

When you go from Casablanca to Detroit, when you arrive, you adjust to Detroit time (as well as weather, etc.) because this is the place your are in, and only take the pain to compute/represent yourself time in Singapore when you commu

Several possibilities, not necessarily exclusive from each other. A) Do you feel you can, and you do, in face to face, or smaller groups? B) Do you feel empowered by your own managers to talk openly with your team? Do you ask advice/ta

Depends on what you value indeed. As a European, I don't feel at all behind the USA. Even less so since a few years, since I see all the very-USA-specific stuff that's been fed to us as "universal", while it was actually

Like, building bridges? (even there, we still struggle with, not technological issues, but budgeting/governance/contracting/management). How many generations of people have passed since computers are around? Not enough that w

Because this is a baby industry/technology, compared to other engineering practices?

A mess. A monolith split into microservices for the sake of it. Still a monolith, though, despite the arch team pretending. Edit: added details

The issue is that, if one cannot reasonably trust a voting process, the vote is null in effect. Humans cannot trust what they cannot understand and cannot verify. A paper-based voting procedure, and counting procedure provide these guarante

This. Automation and digitalization of the voting process bring little advantage (speed) to a process where publicity, transparency, accountability need to happen slowly and to consolidate slowly, for the partial & full results to be tr

Boy... there are kinks all over the world, but the USA-based ones are somewhat very intriguing!

That doesn't sound like as particularly "communist". That's more like 101 urban planning in Europe in the beginning of XXth century. France context, I still remember in 1993 bringing back glass bottles of milk, or coca-c

Notice how this is so englued in USA-based culture and society?

Asserting appropriation for non-material, non-exclusive matters would seem more reactionary, actually.

That's seen through your own lens. Just compare the delicacies of the differences between British English & American English, if not only for the different understated meanings. The "funky word order" of German makes sens

It's not due to English own linguistic merits in itself - and it borrowed/borrows from other languages as well. English has taken over because, in our local history so far, because it's been the official language of the last

I've lived in (and outside) Paris. Worked there too. For years. Walked. Biked. Buses. By subways. By car, own, taxis, ubers. Going by a mix of foot, bike, bus/metro has _always_ been faster, more flexible and less costly than by c

The Uber-like "pick me up where I am" is a pre-fit incentive that will be dropped later. I take buses regularly. Uber too. Taxis too. All in all, the de-humanizing/automation part that's getting traction from capital. It

Same issue as you. So I don't care anymore. I have 10/15 bookmarks in the top toolbar that are releant to my work. All the rest goes into limbo, and I don't even bookmark much anymore. When needed, I write notes (wiki, or pap
