My wife wanted a picture with a family tree in the sitting room, where there's a picture of a real tree and names and photos all over the branches of the tree, because she saw the family tree of her uncle. She is Asian. We tried Gramps

This answer is why I asked my somewhat stupid question. You know 183 days is weirdly specific. Why not just say 6 months or half a year? And know I know why, it's because US goverments uses this number as a cut-off for some legal conse

A question to you: Would it help if we gave up income taxation and switched to expense taxation of natural persons? I am trying to think long-term and visionary. The idea behind this: even the super rich consume. One might have a big yacht

It is said in the article that documents can be provided early. So you could read the stuff twice, first the day before so you have the time to think and then at the meeting to refresh your memory. So no, you probably won't have a disa

SignWriting, a writing system for Signed Languages, would need something like this, because rotation and location of the graphemes matter. Imagine the letter a being rotated by 45 degrees and moved to the upper left corner of the drawing ar

No, because a grapheme cluster is à where the letter is combined by a and ` which are two Unicode Scalar Values. A Go rune is more like one Unicode Scalar Value. However, be careful, terminology is subtle: what is a Code Point, what a Scala

You are generous. However I don't want any content which could be distracting or plain unsafe for mental wellbeing. One example are the ads for violent games on BlueStacks when I was using the emulator for Android education software fo

The answer is more complicated. The same day there were two more referendums about agriculture, one about pandemic measures and one about giving police more tools for antiterrorism measures. The agriculture referendums were very controversi

I agree. If you do something for others and it is not appreciated stop it. You could still document for yourself. Before you leave write about 20 words what could be done for the next working day, for example. Have a log of these leaving wo

Marketing suffers from that people's attention is a commons. People don't sell their attention, so marketers are free to grab it. And then the inevitable happens: because attention is limited and because it's free, the common

Yes. It's like a psychological Rorschach test. You see in the cards what you want to see. The cards help uncovering psychological stuff you mostly already know. It's really amazing how far you can go there.

Ah, you mean the Arbutus unedo. Yeah, the fruits are completely different. You can't compare the strawberry with these fruits. When not yet full ripe, the fruits are brightly yellow-orange, not a reddish-white of strawberries. However

A way to learn is to take the time to read the tip of the day and try out the suggestion right away. Don't disable the tip of the day. It only takes one minute a day and after about a month you'll have learned a lot.
