NEET (ニート) appears to me that it has a much wider, common and regular use in Japan, in particular it's entirely appropriated by the population and media. And there, in their terminology it is distinct from Hikkikomori, which was the po

I would say before one moves to Berlin, you should make sure you're alright with these: - for a great part of the year, poor weather with very low cloudy skies - winter darkness - occasional hostility to foreigners (in certain

This usage of color only fails entirely for color blind people isn't it? Minimalism is about making it as simple as possible, and not simpler. Texture is a way to add redundancy and even when not facing people with disabilities, in communic
