Normally at my desk in an office chair. Most of the time in a upright position. But since your arms and hands are free (bookrest with clamps for the pages) you can choose quite fre…

I do read a lot as well. One of my favorite purchases is also reading-related. It's the 'professional bookrest' - just a simple bookrest from wood. Could be every other really, but…

I don't know. The problem with the (any, for that matter) pandemic is, that we only have limited capabilities in the health service. If we all get sick at the same time, the system…

Please re-read what I wrote. I said I remember it from this book. Not that he came up with it, nor that he wrote the book, nor that I am contend with the quote, nor that I like it.…

Probably yes, but I remember it from the book I mentioned. That's all I wanted to share.

That reminds me of a quote from Trumps 'the art of the deal', that goes something like: the receipt for success is under-promise and over-deliver.

I don't want to defend the comment you replied to, but there is obviously some nuance to the topic. Your comment makes it look like you're jumping right on the opposite side and ha…

Following thought comes to my mind: Long and recurring discussions come up on complex (among others) topics. A long and recurring discussion on those topics only arises if more tha…

I'm not cynical, but I kind of gave up on people who don't behave on the internet or are blatantly stupid. Sometimes this feels like I gave up on the internet as a whole, but I try…

The internet itself is the biggest social network. To participate, make a own website. But that's only to make your work available to others, I understand that. Getting people to a…

With the same attitude like any other drug, I guess. It's very likely less harmful than other drugs. If you're mindful about it and you really want to try it, then ...
