Depends where in the country you are.. Parts of the coast in Libya is really harsh and desert. Mountain parts from Benghazi and eastward and Tripoli and westward. There are some small springs around also, water wells can be dug in various

I grew up in Libya during the building of the GMMR. I still remember the size of the pipes and the amount of trucks hauling them. One truck one pipe. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nubian_Sandstone_Aquifer_Sys... The

Gladly when I moved to Scandinavia I was very interested in pickup and NLP. To my surprise, what I discovered is that lack of social "practice" makes people very susceptible to "sales tricks". So what I found out is that

Yes if you look at Scandinavian societies in isolation, they are happy people. The type of happiness you can feel for every minute that you do not freeze to death. If we look at Scandinavian societies in comparison to the rest of the world

Yes. Again all true. But as a product designer your job is usually to make the product in the most cost efficient way for the company, not the user. So implementing design in a way that is also part of the product strategy is good design! T

That is true. It is not directly "planned obsolescence". But our whole economic capitalist system is based on the idea of consumption. That means that products by default do not need to last.

Dark patterns are still patterns! They key is consistency. Please leave your morals at the door.

Well yes. That is one of the pillars of capitalism. You can sell whatever you want as long as the description on the packages is "honest".

I actually have to agree with you. What we are observing here is a battle for the 1. Place on the IT data food chain. It has never been a matter of respecting privacy. Just a matter of who owns Ur data. FACEBOOK vs. APPLE.

The same can be said about make up, hi heels, botox, and other kind of plastic surgery. It is a service to assist in the cover up of a 'perceived' flaw. Can that also be called deception, regardless of how permanent the solution

Yes I can fully agree with you. If a person is clearly struggling with attracting the opposite Sex, then it is certain that persinalised and tailored help will be more benificial, but in the case with this survice, I see like a luxoroise to

Well recruiters are not expensive in the grand scheme of things. If your problem solving skills are so good that someone is willing to pay you enought you can tottaly afford an assistant or an agent.

All these things do not matter if you have the cash to buy yourself out of these problems. Yes everyone "can" potentially learn to fix their cars and computers. But if they have jobs that pay better than the time it takes to do th

Yeh but you see. The sun has existed for billions of years and we as humans have yet to adapt to it fully. There is a reason why we live in the shade and use sunscreen. Excuse me if I still feel skeptical about mmWaves..

I don't think sex addiction is a thing... Sounds a bit like oxygen addiction. What is more real is sexual desperation... If we take the number of women vs men, that have sexual addiction, and we corollate it with sexual partner availab
