There is no rule you can only have two though, just saying. More than one per person can be quite nice, especially in winter.

They wonder why this natural waking up before the alarm only works if you actually set the alarm and does not work if you do not set it.

The Japanese solution is everyone carrying their own personal small towel.

I really wonder how we started to have the toilet and place for washing up in the same room. Especially when you have more than one person it is so much more convenient to have them separate.

The first person to do that might at least be able to get their attention..

Yes, don't feel bad, we'd never see it anyway. I agree with the proposals of the others, rather write an email to the corresponding author or a blog post about it.

Some problems with that: - You can only offset a certain amount of warming with it. If you put too much aerosol into the stratosphere it will merge, become larger and precipitate quite fast. The exact possible offset can only be estimated,

Mhm, sounds good. But when your walls are too cold and your humidity too high (cooking, showering, breathing, plants...) you run into mold issues fast, so it's not that easy.

If you put a towel underneath you can dry them flat on top of the drying rack. No dripping observed so far.

I have actually been made to sign GDPR statements abroad (physically, on paper). (eg a bank in Taiwan, I'm from Germany.)

Taiwan does that too. If you leave the country you can drop them off at one of the charity boxes using it for income.

Clearly some exemptions will be made as always, we just have to hash out which ones.

It's fun to summarize Faust II for those who haven't read it. Faust I is so commonly read in school here, and so earnest and serious that the time-traveling madness of the second part comes at a surprise.

You don't want to know about the results discussed at conferences where there doesn't have to be consensus on how bad it is/could be.. the IPCC reports are quite optimistic.

US congress is funding sulfur aerosol as well as sea salt cloud seeding research, from what I heard with experiments. I feel that even nobody in the community thinks it's a good idea we're getting kind of desperate since so many p

Mostly it's a question about cost, really. Arguably, we should rule out solar radiation management - in the models you get the weirdest side effects, for example if you ramp up amount of stratospheric sulfur aerosol to the maximum effe

It is not, it's far too short for that. The way it is now it isn't even a decent invitation to discuss. dav43 could probably expand it into one easily though. What kind of bubble? Who's in it? Why do they think so? What are t

It's an issue for everyone. When you can expect any younger woman to suddenly take a year off they become a larger hiring risk compared to men. Equalizing the parental leave time changes things also for those without children.

And it usually ends with the mother taking 12 and the dad taking 2, and these 2 being spent on a longer vacation somewhere. There are many reasons, it seems to me that external circumstances are shaping a lot of them.

No, but check your wording. Calling someone naive and unable to see it is insulting. Just to give you an additional perspective.

Do you have a favourite solution for this problem?

Have you tried getting money transfered internationally? At my level of understanding I can find many legit reasons for this course of action.

Is taking a month or two off impossible? It sounds like you could really use a break.
