I just don't think there's a magical number that works for me. Dealing with users/clients is really just dealing with people so I guess it ends up like being in a light therapy session, asking questions until you get a good u

I don't force it 5x but asking why was the best lesson I learnt working with users/clients as people tend to talk about solutions and not the problems. That's also where my nickname comes from.

Sure, I do agree that nothing is safe. But an EU law protecting savings up to 100k eur is an order of magnitude safer than a very small (though beautiful) country, completely isolated in the middle of nowhere with it's own currency wer

I understand your point but the specifics about the European Union countries have changed a little since 2008, meaning nowadays all EU countries banks savings are really saved in any case up to 100k euros. This way, isn't money (up to

Yeah, maybe the reading was incorrect but I do get a spike in bpms whenever I run or climb stairs. I don't get it when walking or weight training. Might need to check this with some exam...

We are not talking about Cristiano Ronaldo here. This person does seem to have a very good salary but it doesn't mean he isn't replaceable. About it being easy, I'd say it depends on a lot of different things but based on his

I'm sure it wouldn't take long to find someone willing to work for that salary so you wouldn't pay income tax but someone else would (and that someone else would also take another step on the social mobility ladder, etc). If

The easiest way is to try to look for confirmation or a denial of what you just saw. But in the given example all you have is a few minutes of video footage which doesn't give you any context. So in a documentary, you would expect thos
