Why only 100d/y while Norwegian works around 190d/y? In my experience people tends to have a “main” commute mode that they only turn away from in exceptional cases. Easier to live with habi…

Thanks, didn’t know the k2 can be sourced in kimchi ! Totally agree with not throwing the baby with the water. As for most poisons, just a bit has a good effect, think red wine.

« go all the way into orbit » (and down to Hawaï) seems totally fair as a flight plan. Being ok with aborting early is SpaceX decision and I totally get it. Nevertheless, « all they hope was to cle…

> clearing the tower was all we hoped All, really ? What about the flight plan ? I like the American philosophy to see the good part of experiences even when thinks don’t go as planned, but IMHO I …

Thank you so much for those words, they are wise and re-fill my confidence level so much for today. Everybody should find it’s own way of “wining in life” as peer said, but probably not by listen and …

Would you recommend to keep on with favoring this accounting trick for fairness because previous businesses took advantage of it? If so, how/when should the legislator changes laws when needed? &…

And there is even worse : sometimes the “partner” list does not have a reject all AND each partner requires a two click steps - waiting for an animation in between. Edit: remove double post of link

Thanks, your reply is informative. I’m probably biased by my living bubble and reading “access to therapist is far from given” helps to keep in mind to not generalize my context.
