I was surprised to not find anything about possible cures or treatments in the article. I had bad allergies myself in my teenage years - unable to sleep for weeks - I finally sough…

Forgive my bluntness asking this question: how hard can it be to put a stationary "satellite" as a communication relay next to the moon to bridge the "dark window" with the space c…

Thank you for clarifying! The German term is "Pilze sammeln" which literally translates to: collect mushrooms. There are many dialects of the German language - where I'm from, we w…

That's right! It's called "merit order" [0]. Best scenario would be to either decouple the gas price from the price of electricity or get rid of the merit order system altogether. …

No, just no. I'm long-time unemployed, had my last interview in Dec 2025. But what I can tell you is that during my interviews I get a lot of questions regarding numbers like: "how…

I used to DJ in the 90's with vinyl on 1210s decks. A lot has changed in the industry and I'd like to spin at home for fun since I'm still a "househead". Anyone knows a good YT cha…

Was laid off more than 2 years ago. For me it was not the process (the company I worked for announced their plans early) of being let go - it is the current job market that keeps m…

How's Corcel different to using WP's own API? What are the pros / cons?

At least you got an interview! My last interview was before the holidays 2023, just rejections since (or I get ghosted). Competition is insane at the moment. Here are exaples: ) tr…

Just to clarify: was "fired without cause" (worked "at will" which most of full-time employments are in the US). By asking why they were getting rid of me I heard the pharse "for n…

This is cruel and heartbraking. Didn't expect this to happen in any European countries the least in Poland where they have strong unions. Retaliation is pretty common in the US - I…

Contrary to the article stating there were no documentaries that wouldn't parrot the conclusions of the Warren Commission, I remember watching a BBC documentary about JFK's assassi…

As a senior you have other responsibilities as well: train your juniors and then delegate your work. Let them rotate once a week on different tasks. Make them "report" to you what …

In Europe the harmonica is widely accepted as the prominent instrument for folk music and since everyone is posting harmonica videos here's one of the most famous song (very diffic…

When I announced the birth of my child the company I worked with fired me instantly and living off one income (my spouse was still working) was tough. Money got so short that I sta…
