I can tell you my sister always blamed my parents for mostly going on vacation to Poland, where they had a summer house and family (uncles, aunts, grandparents) instead - like the rich children from her class in Germany - to Spain or Italy.

Now she is asking if she could use that summer house to be able to go anywhere abroad because turns out it’s quite difficult to earn a lot of money to be able to take your child on expensive vacations. And she has only one instead of three children like our parents.

While I can’t tell you if she feels like you describe, but I think in this case she should :p

Yes, but compared to 30 years ago overall it seems way less. But yeah, I would need to go through the numbers to be able to point to real data points, you’re right.

Ah, I also didn’t see the “(US)” tag.

It really depends where. In the global south? Way better, in China, it’s debatable. In Poland, way better. In the US, way worse. In the UK, way worse.

It’s good to bring it into perspective with numbers like Hans Rossling used to do https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8t4k0Q8e8Y sadly he died and nobody took this over after him to visualize data in this way so publicly yet.

No, it does not mean you have the job, there are still many others in the race.

The article doesn’t explain how way exit works

When me and my sister were 6 and 4 our dad came in to our room to tell us a bedtime story. He lied down with us on the bed and started telling the story.

It was just before Christmas and because our flat was small we had the Christmas tree with lights on in our room by the door, and we were on the other side of the room on the bed by the window, ca. 3 m away

Once he was done withe the story suddenly in the same moment the Christmas light turned off. That was in Poland in the 80’s so no home automation or anything.

He told us the Jesus baby turned it off because it was sleeping time. Even as a 6years old I was suspicious about that answer because it was a one time thing. But I never figured out how he did it.

I go there, try to explain what I have (I don’t speak Korean and the doctor is not very good in English). Then the might give me a shot and let me inhale some stuff. Then I pay some mony (don’t remember exactly how much, but not so much) and they give me a prescription and I go away. Most of the time it takes about 10 minutes.

This has always baffled me too.

Where do we send the cake?

• Battlestar Galactica (SciFi)
• Star Trek - The Next Generation (SciFi)
• Ozarks (Drug Cartel)

I think your expectations are wrong. Perhaps at 8 you still might tolerate your mom hovering around but at 12? It’s part of puberty to grow apart from your parents, it’s just biology. You can be glad he is comfortable even bringing his friends to your home so you can meet them and talk to them at least a little bit.

The only a bit weird thing is that they get the whole house/apartment and you’re confined to your room. I’m not sure about your living situation but it should be the other way around, they should be in his room.

Our Blues is also very similar.

This one is really good, we watched it also.

I think you need to add the exhaust or at least the catalysator to it because the RAM stores the results of the computations for further use.

I treat my phone and my laptops as just thin clients and store my stuff automatically on my server and my PC which has backup on to a NAS.
