They do this because the job seeker is already invested, and doesn't have the time to ponder well their choice, or speak about this with someone else.

They must choose on the spot, and having already invested time. They'll often accept much lower than they would have otherwise.

For the hirer, it pays off on the long term despite the time they also invest. It's thousands, even sometimes tens of thousands of dollars saved each year.

I also don't apply to jobs that don't show the salary in the posting. But I used to when I was desperate.

He thinks a trade surplus for Canada means the US is subsidizing Canada.

I'm not even kidding.

Imagine all the NATO countries send forces to Greenland and poor Iceland gets invaded instead.

This seems like a recurrent unfortunate thing in Norway.

"Burzum is very well known among fans of black metal and is considered seminal in black metal despite being a far-right white supremacist murderer."

The mystery for me is that, how does the regime being transparent on imperialism and might makes right doesn't wake up those people from the spell of normalcy bias?

Unfortunately, many of us know English well and some are happy to consume that propaganda, so the infection has vectors to spread.

It's incredible by now how many LLM users don't know that it merely predicts the next most probable words. It doesn't know anything. It doesn't know that it's hallucinating, or even what it is saying at all.

You can't really hide in the tundra or icecaps though.

Or they fail to imagine a situation that seems unrealistic.

Or they can't come to terms with it.

Or they are delusional.

This is not heraldics, such hard rules have no place here.

I have a stomach flu. My government recommends me to eat as normally as possible.

I've generally had no appetite.

And the idea of eating foods, even bland, often makes me feel nauseous.

And when I do eat, I often want to puke what I ate.

Why does my body do this if I'm supposed to fill my guts with food?

 

I'm hesitating between Vex Go and Lego Education Spike for my 7 years old son who's interested in robotics.

Vex has a good organization system which is a big plus, but Lego looks like it has more cool things you can do with it.

I wanted to compare what customers thought but I have trouble finding indormation so I'm turning to you. Anyone has had experience with these products or any other?

Thank you
