I use messenger on Facebook web through. I do have the app as well, but the web works.

None. I just install os and use it without any encryption and such. It’s more important for me to be able to access data on device failure than encrypt it.

Yeah, international fees are super expensive. As someone that has almost always received free education it scares me a lot. Funnily that’s still cheaper than paying US universities.

I’m almost done with my PhD so changing the lab would be more trouble than worth it. If it was allowed I could move and finish PhD remotely in 6-8 months, but I kind of need PhD for immigration points (no work experience in last 5 years). A post doc that pays well would be ideal. But I’m open to industry jobs as well.

Luckily my degree is in the green list for now. I heard they change it based on their demands.

It was helpful, Thank you.

I’ll look into the politics.

Academia does seem a bit small for my field, and being an experienced professor probably would have helped compared to barely finishing PhD. I consider my skills flexible enough to work in a variety of industries, but to qualify for the skilled visa I’d have to find work in the industry I have degree in.

Seems like the right shift is kind of global. I don’t see any other country being a good choice either. And we did see the tension, and the haka.

How’s science though? Main problem we have here is that people don’t really respect science anymore. Which is something that we find really scary long term.

We were thinking of moving using the skilled visa, which seems hard because we need a job offer prior to visa application. So if you have money you can just come?

Any Kiwis here can tell me if it’s a good country to immigrate to? I will have PhD soon, and want to contribute to open access research if possible.

So far the country looks great because we like slow life, but idk if that’s just for citizens or also for immigrants.

Can’t see instructions on how to use it, do I need to do anything non trivial on my phone? Should I test it on an old phone?

Sometimes you don’t know. Or think it’s not important.

There’s this thing basically (you’ve probably heard about it), “I don’t like X people, but you’re good because you’re not like them”. X can be race, gender, any other things. When you are with that kinda person as long as they like you, you won’t feel how they are, they’ll treat you nice but it’s an exception not the rule. But when they don’t like you, they revert back to treating you like the X group. They’ll even go “I knew X would be like this” and all.

Now in many cases if they were vocal about it from the beginning you’d notice and might get away. But in many cases they won’t be vocal, or they’ll talk about it with some extreme examples which you might feel is justified and you know you’re not like that so it’s fine. And in those cases you yourself might hate those subgroup for ruining your reputation so you might even bond over that.

Again, you can type feet instead of ft and it’ll work. You can write ‘feet per second’ instead of ‘ft/s’ and it’ll work. Natural language has its benefits but when you have a very simple syntax model then there’s less chances of it making a mistake.

I also like it very much. I hope they make a library for it soon, I can’t wait to use it to make unit aware calculators.

I mean the syntax for gnu units is literally the same unit expression used in math. m^2, cm, m/s etc. the ft;in looks weird because it’s two units combined.

Your example in it would be units 30ft mm , use -t for terse results that’s just the final value.

Doesn’t even work well on a single monitor on Wayland. It gets confused with screen size or sth, fills a small area on top left with screen contents and lot of black space

Warm as in heated water, yes. Room temperature or lukewarm water from the pipes, NO.

Wait people don’t like drinking water? Drinking water (not warm) when you’re thirsty is a really good feeling. I only struggled with forgetting to drink water when I’m not thirsty, but once I am I drink.

Seeing the sugar addiction and soda problem maybe it was because I didn’t drink those regularly growing up. They were just treats. Also as a child we had fun eating certain fruits that were sour/bitter and then drink water after that, it makes the water taste sweet.

Maybe you can try eating/licking lemon/lime a bit and drink water later.

Gnu units does unit conversion. Also seems to have currency. It’s a command line tool though

My ex did tell me I’m shorter than she wants her bf to be. I was still talker than her by 2-3 inch but she wanted me taller than her in heels. And suggested I do exercises to get taller.

I ended it with her soon after that. I think if someone has thought like that, there are other common patterns that makes the relationship too much to worth it. My wife now is same height as me and we’re happy about that, height difference of several inches seems weird/difficult to imagine now.

$4/month for this article.

That’s what I think about so many home/traditional cure. Maybe it works for those people due to placebo effect, and I’ve lost that magic because I’m too critical of everything.

It also has a team mode when you walk around with your friends, it gives different tasks to different people in the group. Haven’t used it myself but I’ve been thinking of trying that with my clubs.
