I always thought that way about genius level.

I am always joking that duolingo sells a dream to speak foreign language fluently. My argument is I have not seen a person claiming learned a language on the platform.

Is not it just to expensive?

While having a child you must pay for daycare, school, evening baby sitting. Next to that if the family splits the woman is doing most of the child care alone. Sounds like to much risk.

I created a playlist that tells the strech exercise name and then beeps every 20s. Efective stretch takes between 20-30s and the strength of it should be such that the intensity phases out at the end of the 20s. I did 3x20s for every exercise. My whole routine was approx 20minutes and took me daily for 3 months to achieve the angles that are checked by physio therapist.

Could you give a little bit more context by describing the last two cases when you felt that way?

What positions are you hiring?

After you solve it, please share :)

So sad. Your thougts do not sound as free person thoughts. On a countrary I would better be dead than a slave.

What might be the reason..?

Call in all inteligence heads and ask the most important question: do aliens exist?

After reading the quote “Most men give advices by the bucket, but take it by the grain.” W.R.Alger. I stopped giving advices.

My two cents. I prefer analogy with sport. Say you choose running and pick 10k distance. What might be the goal? 50min, 40min, 30min? Say you pick 50min, if you are out of shape and did not do sport in your life - it will take you 6-9 months. You will have to train 3 times a week, probably you won't hire a couch, your body won't be ready, hence you will make many mistakes and will have quite high chances to injure your self and quit. What I want to emphasize - to succeed you have to start loving the process and blend the process into your lifestyle.

I see very clearly how the goal oriented approach fails for loosing weight while the only effective thing to do is eat less.

I just finished reading https://www.billiondollarwhale.com/ book. The book tells a story how 11Billion USD were stolen. After seeing $17B losses I hardly can believe that a big chunk of it or most of it were not funnelled to support a lavish lifestyle of connected people.

Searching for exercises having an efect and taking as less time as possible looks like panacea.

That is an interesting question. I would like to buy a nice painting or a sculpture but how can I distinguish a piece that is worth considering.

I improved my flexibility whithin 6 months by visiting a physiotherapist. I visited her once per month. She checked my angles and muscle strenght then gave me a custom routine of exercices and streches each time.

The analogy about muscle streching is wrong.

Not the same situation. Roads are used and paid for maintainance by business. Subways/undergrounds are not used by business.

What I want to emphasize is that majority of articles represent western democratic, capitalistic, liberal culture. Reading these articles you won’t learn anything extra that you were tought in school. On one hand it is ammusig how english wikipedia became a western culture mirror. On the other hand it is sad that you can not get insights into other cultures without western culture filter.

As I see it - the land is owned by the city and city is lobbied by other landlords to keep all the crimes in a closed teritory. If you dismantle slums the people will spread all over the city and the crimes will follow.

Nice post and sounds like a screenplay of Slumdog Millionaire.

will have to change my phone code.

Another runner - marathon world record holder - Eliud Kipchoge. “If you want to break through, your mind should be able to control your body,” he said. “Your mind should be a part of your fitness.” As I see it - you have to believe yourself unconditionally.

My version of the saying is - what does not kill you cripples you.

There is a theory that some math problems are not solved because people who are solving them have to few time to think on them.

Other theory states that 100 years war between France and England lasted so long because there were left 0 leaders older than 30+ years old and these guys were not good at negotiation.

Good point. I was trying to vocalise this feeling but did not find the right explanation why I enjoyed so much the selection of random stuff.

After panama papers I realized that money are moved using fax machines. It seems to start moving money you need to know company name and its representetive. Having this info sending a fax stating move money from A to B is sufficient. I assume huge amounts can be or are stolen from ofshore companies.

Funny. If imported ppl were IQ=72 they would not hijack Norway wellfear system :D

Last year my 1 year old baby had an accident in Germany. She fell off of a bed. I took her to an ER and after the examination I paid approx. 100€ = ~100usd. I assume in USA I would have paid 10kUSD or more..

Egocentric :D
