Ok, I must take a step back. I have only my personal feeling to back the claim. And that doesn't mean much, considering the fact that I barely ever used TikTok. So you might be rig…

Oh, man, I opened Pandora's box with this question. :) I'm lucky to have boys of similar age, so they play each other whole day. On the other hand, they do need to eat, use toilet,…

Imagine if all the companies in the world switched to this friendly, non-competitive mode? I heard something like that before... hmm, communism? You don't have to work (hard), you'…

This is just one of the many approaches to building a career. As with many other things in life, there is now one-size-fits-all. For someone else, a complete opposite will work. St…

Split keyboard, that's the key word. Solves multiple problems you mentioned in the first part of the post.

You are unconvinced until it hits you. I never heard about it before it started bothering me. It's individual. I have a friend, overweight, never played any sport, never saw him ru…
