Yeah, I do. I’m really lazy and need some pressure to get going. It also gives me this nice kind of thrill and clarity. I also really enjoyed doing exams and tests in school and at uni.
That being said, I don’t think I could deal with a constant pressure. Every now and then is nice to get this thrill and to get validation when doing well. But under constant pressure I would burn out quicker than a barn doused in gasoline.
From the line “Never gonna run around and desert you” we can gather that when a relationship came to an end, the person ending the relationship would run around frantically and burn all possessions of their former partner, thus turning their property into a desert, or “deserting” them.
In a few thousand years…
“We finally deciphered the text on it. It’s a monument to love, to undying loyalty and affection! How amazing! Here, it reads: ‘Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down’”
It should be a very short glance though…
In my experience what happens is you look at each other confusedly for a moment, wondering who is in the wrong restroom. Then you realise there are no urinals so it’s probably the women’s restroom. Then the man leaves a bit embarrassed. Source: Happened to me at least twice (once the signs were really unclear).
As a developer I can freely admit that without the operations people the software I develop would not run anywhere but on my laptop.
I know as much about hardware as a cook knows about his stove and the plates the food is served on – more than the average person but waaaay less than the people producing and maintaining them.
I would never paste code into a Word document. I use Notepad++ for that.
Just carry one around with you and whenever something important happens or you are about to do something risky, pull it out, press it with your finger and loudly say “Save”.
Edit: Bonus points for carrying a huge cardboard mouse pointer to click with.
Edit 2: I really should read all the replies before starting to type.
I can’t think of any.
But I’m a bit sad that the French-originating Bonmot is already taken in German (meaning a witty one-liner). It would have been a nice allusion to Bonbon (candy), like words that taste nice.
“LGTM”
Nice, done for today.
In Germany there is no official limit for how long it can take to form a new government. If there is no clear winner and the coalition talks are complicated, it can easily take a month or more. After the election in 2017 it took almost half a year before Merkel was elected as Chancellor and the government was formed. That was uncommonly long though.
For the time between the first sitting of the newly elected parliament (30 days after the election iirc) and the formation of a new government the previous government acts as caretaker government.
I think the reason might be racism.
In my opinion, there is nothing wrong with being a bit angry or jealous sometimes.
You shouldn’t throw your rage at the people around you or let your actions be driven by anger alone. But there are a lot of things one can very justly be angry about. I would even argue that some things one should feel angry about. Like when someone is mistreated.
Denying yourself negative emotions is not entirely healthy in my opinion, it’s more about the way you act on them (or don’t act on them).
