True. Our building is 20 year old swiss one, mostly concrete, one would expect already good temperatures. Ground floor and first one are fine even now (26 is max it gets), but floor under roof is much warmer. 28 and more and I can't wo

This low angle situation must have been experienced by every adult I imagine, its just about being outside before dawn and feeling how sun's warming effect on the body is much stronger than few hours ago even though air temperature its

While true about that 'hero' marketing, you can claim the same about literally any marketing campaign, or things like American Dream (TM). How many teenagers looked with starry eyes into US military recruiting PR campaigns, then g

Sounds more like social security avoidance, or general taxation avoidance. Which country will take 30% cut from incoming foreign transaction? The highest combined fees I could find are for Sub-Saharan Africa and those are below 10%, support

You write this on the forum where often in apple-based topics folks here defend locked down system ie on phones for themselves as something actually superior. Its often paid PR or folks to deep in the topic to have objective opinions (or

You know what earns a lot of money rather effortlessly? Harvesting organs. I mean its just a cash flow, anyway for sure from sinners. Look at Chinese, always ahead of the curve. Bonus points for saving lives of some wealthy folks. Everybody

Yeah some random blog from keen bikers is really debunking it all globally, including common sense. I don't get this fanatical defense of no-helmet-at-all-fucking-cost stance many here often express. I personally know a person who died

Just checked my BD climbing helmet I bought few years ago (seems like Mips Capitan model based on design). Considered these things a gimmick (any technical equipment bought has list of various tech used within, I generally ignore that by de

A female high on meth gets disoriented and dies from heat exposure in the mountains. As per article she willingly separated from the guy whom she sent to the top of the peak "to continue to get pic for social media". He probably s

Jeez, you grabbed a single word from an expression that even non-native speakers like me know very well how to interpret and went a bit too deep into your self-made projections and on-purpose incorrect interpretations. Just to be clear - th

With llms this should be trivial. Government agency has access to tax fillings of individuals, because... why it shouldn't. They see income, they see family situation, age of kids etc, its couple of if-this-then-that and that's it

Attacking families is firmly across the line and looks like crazy man's personal vendetta. Who can vouch he won't go further and ie won't kidnap a kid to achieve his goals. No wonder he gets raided, at one point it becomes a

Do you get your major feeling of success primarily from work, or is it the rest of life ? I don't think I need to spell what is viewed as the proper long term winning strategy here. I know folks who ride the work part, and let me tell

Why? If it isn't illegal, nor amoral, just a moonshot then its basically typical SV startup reaching for stars. Sure, 99.9% of startups may not get there but we saw in the past some wild unexpected successes. Plus things may change alo

I've worked a bit on the app which calls major telco provider directly. It was a basic web service call, and sender could be entered as anything. This is basic property of cellular networks, no more safety than say standard email.

> I will recognize that I am a bit special Should have started with that. No, your experience doesn't easily translate into some general good advice, you are probably way-above-average bright. I for example went through old school e

At the end both will have to live in same society, and this society will not care whats their background and issues. Perform as expected and get reward, or otherwise not so much. Everybody can be taught some degree of behavior even if it ma

Any modern country invest heavily in its future. There is no easier marker for that than education - literally laying groundwork for future of everybody. Teachers should be paid and respected as much as doctors are, all levels, all age. But

This is what schools enforce, second, even more important part is what parents do/allow/pay for at home. Every single household I've seen benevolent use of phones/tablets/tv/computer/consoles (quite often

Nature heals extremely well, recharges mental batteries. Sports help. Sports in nature are the best - hiking, camping, skiing, climbing, biking, whatever ticks your boxes (for me, everything does but I don't have enough free time to do

Apart form all other comments which are mostly from IT insider perspective, which most mankind simply doesn't have, AI means real rather than potential job loss in future. I've talked to doctors, drivers, lawyers etc. and most whi

I see no controversy there, yes we should take some very strong action since we literally crap where we live and we only have 1 self-contained room for it all, the debate (not controversy) should be about which steps are most efficient, whi

Well South Sudan as highlighted has 8, and thats basically a desert. Tibetan plateau is high altitude frozen desert with permafrost in many parts, and its 11.4. Maybe there is more complexity than meets the first glance.

Well they should look at their own sea gypsies - bajau people, how they live and lived in the past. Its wonderful to experience them and also read upon their history - in the past they had literal floating villages, migrating with seasonal

Phone like this, especially with whatsapp, is something I can imagine giving to my kids once they are older. They would love the design 1000x more than what biggest players bring on the market these days. Maps & whatsapp cover basically
