I played 2hours and actually it is definitely so much for fans that I would say everyone should play at least the first one (secret of monkey island) first before playing this one (and then why not play the second one, too? :D). So much I c

my guess would be the heatwave. E.g. in Germany the temperature/weather was miserable (for me personally the worst ever. E.g. I did not go running outside because I felt dizzy all the time.); I don't think old/weakened people

there truly is strength in great slogans/words. Like the Great Resignation before, Quiet Quitting has a certain ring to it that just encaptures the mind. Both concepts are a little nonsensical, but have enough truth in it to garner rea

we should be real here: The idea of carbon credits/certificats is better than doing nothing as generelly these steps should help (better to put money where it could be worthwhile than where we know it ain't). Where it doesn't

maybe there's a reason they were known as Slowtaku? I don't mind actually. Give them the time to process. RIP.

As someone else has said: you can always start by mixing walking with jogging. The most important part is to start moving. As for myself: I am not really new to running. However, since moving places I didnt run anymore because my only real

my question was not well-written. Should've been: Is it worthwhile exercise? And you answered that one. I guess it all depends on how much assistance you let go through.

but is it really exercise with an ebike? I'd like to see others chip in on that (or studies ;).

I read a HN comment a while ago wrt running that said that motivation might come from saying "I want to see this beautiful place again" (where the running leads to.) instead of saying "I need to run because I want to lose wei

I think "narrative" is probably the most underrated element in economic theory, probably because it's hard to measure. But it's easy to see: Many American CEOs appear to be only in it for themselves, and as you say US cu

Found 80% too high, so I looked it up and it's around 60% (would be 70% if there weren't temporary limits), which is still a lot.

the magic plan should be to consume less and less and less. If we would consume 20% less, which should be absolutely doable, these problems would alleviate itself quite fast (well, we still should invest as much as we can in renewables). Ho

whomever you tell (I like the idea of telling your direct manager), consider the option of only telling the following: "Hey boss, I have an idea how to automate this task of my colleagues and I am quite sure I could do it. However, sin

you can't teach compassion. Well, maybe. But it's quite a different task than logic or recap.

MS stopped releasing those figures. Their official reasoning was that it doesn't really matter since the money is in the software (true). The real reason IMO was because they were embarrassed.

also there's a difference between hunger and appetite, is there not? And with appetite (at least for me) what I mean mostly is wanting to have something sugary. However, whenever I give in to it, it gets even harder to stop then (not j

there is a difference between these types of addictions. Granted, someone might be "addicted" to buying clothes/shoes/etc. but that person won't take debt to try to get more shoes, whereas an addicted gambler might

this reminds me of the hero trope in RPGs (e.g. Secret of Mana?): The hero is responsible that his village is overrun by monsters. In the end he saves the village from those monsters and is praised as a hero :) (yes, bitcoin miners are not

yeah but still the simpsons today are something else entirely than the simpsons 20 years ago. It's not that they had 10 bad years and now, suddenly, are good and similar like before. It's simply not true. And it wouldn't even

Try to get to know them in one on ones. If that doesn't work out, then maybe start looking for something else. But first try that. Sometimes all it takes is to find one common interest and suddenly you like talking to them. Best of luc

But wasn't one of Roslings main points that we should strive to make Africa wealthy so that they get fewer kids? (Because the richer the country, the less kids are born) So basically his whole point was that he wanted to stop this unsu

from my German perspective the numbers in this article look representative. The 45k you quoted were the lowest number for people without much experience (but still: German wages are not quite as great as one would maybe expect, I'll gi
