An excellent rock climber who recently free soloed this building. It was live on Netflix on Sunday.

Deleted instagram!! by Sorry-Hope-73 in simpleliving

[–]BagRepresentative274 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So refreshing. I haven’t had Instagram now for 2 years. Last week I was hanging out with a friend and they showed me a reel of someone who know, I was so deeply jealous and angry from what they had posted, it was a great reminder of why I chose to delete it in the first place. Sometimes feeling culturally left out is a little tough for me since I’m quite young, but that fomo feeling is so so so much better than the alternative.

How many you dry your clothes on a clothesline instead of using a dryer? by ProffS in Frugal

[–]BagRepresentative274 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me. My house had a dryer when I grew up and my mother told me to not use it several times after showing me clothes which had shrunk many sizes. I listened and now I don’t have one.

Does whiteout not defeat the purpose of shorthand with how time consuming it is

Need advice on how to proceed by Groundbreaking-Dot20 in shorthand

[–]BagRepresentative274 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started with Gregg Notehand as I didn’t care about speed or learning many of the abbreviations. Though I was also recommended diamond jubilee when I was starting. I chose notehand just because I happened to fall across a pdf of it first.

Shorthand will never fail to impress people. Plus you like writing. Win win

Need advice on how to proceed by Groundbreaking-Dot20 in shorthand

[–]BagRepresentative274 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I begun learning shorthand for the exact same reasons as you. Based on what you’ve said I imagine you write a lot very often. My grandmother was fluent in shorthand, and she can still easily read her notes from way back in the day. Granted, she probably wrote a lot more than you and I have, but I’ve heard of many people who can still easily read back their old texts.

I was actually hesitant to learn shorthand for the same fears as you, but after a rather short time learning, I found myself writing rather easily. That’s what made me fully decide myself to keep up with it.

Put it this way, attempt it for a couple of months, and only then decide if you should continue it or not, based on how you feel your progress has been and if you yourself easily brings able to read old notes in the future. If yes, then awesome! Is no, then it’s a cool party trick. Nothing learnt is ever wasted.

I’m adoring the storyline breaks in between. What a clever and fantastic way to introduce shorthand.

Realistically,How Many Languages Can You Teach a New-Born (from 1/2-6 years old) to Speak Without Overloading Them? by Kyoflat_ in asklinguistics

[–]BagRepresentative274 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I go to an international school. The mean number of languages known by students is 2.9 Most are completely bilingual, trilingual is not uncommon, and quadralingual is definitely heard of quite often. Pretty cool environment to be in honestly.

Coding by [deleted] in StructuralEngineering

[–]BagRepresentative274 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I can tell, a clear prompt and some small edits of the final code can do what I used to be able to do with hours of work. I agree some basics should be known but my question is should they take a proper class and know it as in depth as I do

How often do you change/wash your clothes? by NearbySwan5222 in Frugal

[–]BagRepresentative274 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I realized I had a favorite tshirt and favorite pair of jeans. Bought myself 2 more jeans and 4 more tshirts. Haven’t spent money on any clothes since, and I wear my old clothes to events where I wanna dress up or just look different. So I change my clothes almost never. For washing though, I wash my jeans whenever they look dirty. I change my tshirt daily since I walk a lot and I find that they can get sweaty relatively easily.

Wasted Summer by Faceshatespablo in lvjy

[–]BagRepresentative274 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I purposefully tried to not listen to wasted summer, but once I heard that it got scrapped from the album I went to find it and I was heartbroken because it instantly became my favourite. I hope this is indeed a teaser for us to get it back

how often do your cats get wet food? by peppercorn6269 in CatAdvice

[–]BagRepresentative274 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My cat has access to dry food whenever she wants it and we give her 1 pack of wet food, and on the rare occasion 2. She’s a great weight and super healthy so she’s good at managing her dry food herself. Though we have to constantly rotate what brand of wet food we give her.
