I found the inconvenient process of writing down the ups and downs of each day in a notebook as well as a few metrics I want to keep at the time (currently what I am eating, my weight, swimming times and runs) helped me more than anything e

Financially not worth it, the amount of time it takes to just figure out how to build/run the project + the time it takes to figure out the general architectures / file arborescence is too big. But if someone marketed it as "

I tend to use words for their exact definitions. So don't be shy to precisely pinpoint the exact part I showed any sign of intolerance, I am curious. Intolerance: lack of tolerance; unwillingness or refusal to tolerate or respect opini

Your whole message convinces me that OP idea of a project is actually pretty good. I think he is creating a safe space for queer people AND he is indirectly creating a safe space for non queer people at the same time.

Alright, then I guess I am better living in a non LGBTQ friendly place. The interactions you are describing seem way too unnecessarily complex for my liking, I am mostly looking to reduce cost of living, having a few drinks from time to tim

I personally don’t see any problems with that. I decided to be an engineer to solve problems. Being in a team where people are black or have vaginas is devoid of any value to me. And I tend to leave any companies that seek to optimize these

I have no idea why you think they need to educate others. If they are looking for housing, they just should look for housing. I don’t need any unsolicited teachings. Go on with your life, the sexuality, pronouns or identities of others are

Then I guess you are pretty much the problem here or I should say your ideology is the differing one. I have been living in Asia for a while, indeed diversity is not seen as anything useful. It's not considered a criteria to be taken i

The amount of corruption in the UE is insanely huge. This has been going on for the past 20 years. I left and I am not coming back. When I used to live in France, I paid between 70% and 75% taxes as a middle class employee. And you keep won

I lost 20 pounds in 40 days, been overweight for the past 10 years or so. For some unknown reasons, I brutally lost my appetite for junk food, sodas, etc. It’s probably the first time in my life I am 100% certain I will reach my ideal weigh

I fully agree with this and I wish the same. I alternative solution I have found so far is 1. I mostly travel to lower income countries in South-East Asia. 2. My income is fairly high even for US standards 3. I usually travel for 3-6 months

I personally use Ritalin once a day. Not that I advice you to do the same but if you tend to procrastinate, I can tell you that it works pretty well.
