Cost of doing business

A shame. That sign hit me straight in the feelings

TIL! Thanks

If werewolf is manwolf, wouldn't wereman be manman?

Been wanting to try and contribute like this myself, but it's overwhelming. Would you mind sharing some tips/guides on getting a somewhat decent feedback loop up for testing out changes? I'm sure it varies a lot depending on what is being developed, but any input is appreciated

Not going to comment on people in general, but I'll offer some personal experience as a Norwegian. Had a russian colleague a while back. She was hard working, smart, lovely and kind. Don't have a single negative thing to say about her. However, when the subject of her origin came up things was a bit weird. It was hard to talk about. Not because of the talking, but more because of fear of not knowing what she would be willing to talk about. It's also a bit scary because depending on what our stances on things were, it could easily turn into a conflict.

I also remember thinking to myself that no matter how good and honest she was as a person, she is still a security risk. Her connections to her country, i.e. friends and family, can be used as leverage to have her do things she doesn't want to.

That said; if you are willing to get through those hurdles and understand/agree with the general Norwegian perspective on the Ukraine situation, I think you'll be alright

My cure is to try new hobbies/activities. Especially ones that require your complete focus. Like Motorsports. Personally I have a lot of anxiety when it comes to singing in front of people, resulting in everything else disappearing during the vocal lessons I for some reason signed up for.

It used to make me sad that I couldn't hold a single hobby, but I guess I'm just not built for it. Trying different ones as often as needed is more up my alley

Oh really. That's... A bummer

I thought it couldn't transfer between humans? Only from rodent saliva/pee/poop

Don't worry. I'll teach you some basic economy. If you have more costs than income you should try to either increase the income, decrease costs, or even better - both. That's what he did

I try to preface the information I share with my source(s) and what I think about it's validity. I judge the validity based on the source(s) I get it from, how many different outlets are reporting the same, but maybe more important is the comment section. It's always useful to see what other people, often smarter people, think about the article. Also, often multiple sides develop that can bring a more nuanced view. Keep in mind that most comment sections are echo chambers, and treat the comments as signals just like the statement the article is making. Nothing is true or false, it is just more or less likely

Yeah. Powerful message though
