0 sats \ 0 replies \ @mateusdeap 8 Dec \ on: Do you prefer ebooks over books? BooksAndArticles
Books are always better in my opinion. More relaxing. I like ebooks for the books I’d never spend the money on a physical copy or that are too expensive or hard to acquire where I live. I end up never reading any books at all due to work and kids, but I consume both formats no problem. I just think physical books leave a lasting impression compared to ebooks
I zapped this merely because I feel like the overall idea is to try and always say exactly what you mean and use expressions in a very deliberate manner.
I'm guilty of spamming "just" for sure hahaha I feel like the dev world is littered with things of the sort. A good reminder to train myself in my work speak. Once you get used to speaking with words and not expressions everyone uses, you start using those expressions better, communicating better and you also notice how excessively hyperbolic, excited and exaggerated our speech is nowadays.
I'm surprised there are 4 year olds that'd get a grasp on this, but hey, I can see how they'd all think this is super cool lol
Zapped for the dedication and because, yes, toys are overrated for kids. I'm definitely taking a page out of this for my kids
As someone interested in this problem, would this be like how torrents work? I’m just thinking from the user’s perspective: how would hosting, downloading and guaranteeing availability work?
I know. I’m arguing for your position. Assuming honesty should be our default. That doesn’t mean we should be naive and help people without discernment, however.
I also think you did right. Of course, if we know a person will use a gift for evil purposes or if we have reason to suspect bad faith, no one is obliged to give anything. Sometimes it might be the contrary. But I hardly think one can be at fault for taking something at face value. We’re educated and conditioned from our earliest years to think that what happens to others is of no consequence to us and that the things we have are all due to our own merits and that we can use them without any thought to the Laws of God
However the fix isn’t abandoning the only medicine against feminism. The thing is we need to first get rid of the idea that marriage is a contract we can just get out of it for whatever reason
It’s not only worth it, it’s just about the only thing still worthwhile in our current Godless society. However, it’s only fair that what is worth much, also costs much. But then, love without sacrifice was never love.
Of all those things, the changing table, in my experience is the least valuable. I change my kids just about anywhere now. It’s still useful. Baby bathtubs I also think are overrated. More useful when they’re newborns. You just need a good place to bathe them. In our house we’ve used our own showers, basins of all kinds, sinks and even buckets. Whatever works best for you.
Things I think are musts: they’re own crib and they’re own room (so they get used to sleeping alone and in their own environment), a breast feeding chair will grant you your partner’s eternal gratitude. And clothes and cloth diapers for drool, etc.
Being a pianist myself and knowing him, I feel bad for the man. Especially considering he has a baby girl now… that is so rough. I’m definitely praying for him…
The issue lies, I believe, in a flawed understanding of selflessness and sacrificial love on the part of the author. And maybe because she does depict them being in love and the you see what I think is a more likely situation: they wouldn’t necessarily be in love but more likely bonded by their trauma. Well, at the very least in the book.
It wouldn’t change much whether they were male or female as I see it, to answer another comment here
To sum it up, I think hunger games are the kinds of books that are fun, but fall into some of these excesses of sentimentality without which they could’ve been a pretty damn good
I only vote for exactness because I think in this case it would be better to ask the user if they were sure they wanted that extension and give them an option to never ask again and use the robustness approach after that
- Indeed you can see black holes as regions in space time we don’t understand. Or understand very little of, due to its nature of not giving out information.
- That being said, it is known that they are massive centers of mass, so we know why we don’t know: their gravitational pull is so strong no light escapes and all is crushed inside it.
- Under such circumstances, I do find it doubtful that matter can organize itself at all, much less be formed into bodies of living beings… so… whatever’s in there, advanced civs aren’t it. Doesn’t rule out other much more extraordinary possibilities, but hard to say
- Current evidence does suggest it’s most likely we’re just dealing with collapsed stars rather than artificially made constructs
Yes, my friend. The issue is that I cannot receive in LN and I need to use my salary to live, and because I receive from a KYC source and live in a country that heavily controls all on and off ramps, I also need to do coinjoins, and I also have my savings in cold storage. Now, my salary is such that doing all this seems to me that it implies paying at least one 100ish dollar fee. Where I live and with my earnings that is simply not acceptable.
So yes, I'm forced to receive in fiat and buy it after the fact rather than spending a significant fraction of money just to get my money where I want it to be.
Yeah, I am aware of lightning and liquid and I'll have to make do for the time being somehow, but mentioning these things as though they magically fix all people's issues and use cases is really missing the point of the matter.
@om this answer's your question as well.
I honestly don’t see the point to all this. Right now, I’m being forced to receive my money in fiat again because of these fees since they effectively keep me from being able to distribute mu sats amongst my wallets. Pretty lame situation imo. I hope it just dies down sooner rather than later…
- No. We will know things for their essence. Any cryptography will be useless
- No need for money in heaven, so bitcoin is worthless
It is worth to remember though: yes, we can take bitcoins to heaven. But we can take them to hell too. The question is where we want to end up….
