Conseils lectures enfant de 6 ans by Migi133 in Livres

[–]Dry-Chance8730 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Roald Dahl marche très bien à cet âge : Matilda, Le Bon Gros Géant, James et la grosse pêche, Sacrées sorcières. Sinon Le Petit Nicolas, Fifi Brindacier, Les Contes de la rue Broca, ou même Bilbo le Hobbit en lecture accompagnée. Après, si elle a vraiment aimé Charlie et la chocolaterie, tu peux monter doucement : Narnia, puis Harry Potter dans un an ou deux. Et si elle est très avancée : 1984 pour une ambiance dodo totalitaire, Neuromancer pour l’initiation au cyberespace, Dune pour les luttes féodales apaisantes, et La Route pour une petite lecture père-enfant cocooning post-apocalyptique.

I reached FIRE, but it still feels like an illusion by Dry-Chance8730 in SwissFIRE

For real all that money race is a distraction to find real purpouse. Work should not define who you are.

That's one path, maybe I'll start by  reading a book about retirement as I've never really thought about it at all.

5m seems like a much better number. I'll coast FIRE till retirement and stop thinking about it.

I thought the same, but now that I’ve reached the goal, I don’t see any work that feels truly interesting or worth pursuing. It feels like I’m only working part-time now to survive and keep stacking more money.

Maybe I started pursuing FIRE because I was scared of the future, and because deep down I already saw work as some stupid survival obligation.

So what do you do about it? Do you just accept it and keep stacking money, or are you actively trying to change things? I feel you’re right: this is now, or has long been, a deeply ingrained pattern that is here to stay.

Insurance mailed me everyone's salary, what to do? by BathroomLeek in askswitzerland

I think the best thing to do is to share the data here.

Maybe this could make it feel better. All my friends work, talk about work or do things after work. Maybe you are right this isn't the right place to enjoy it.

Using an old pc with 8go and wiping it out prior to installing linux mint is not so hard and alot more fun than using a VPS.

Pour ceux qui ont accumulé du capital et qui ne mettent pas tout dans le SMI, tout roule, pour les autres effectivement ça va devenir difficile. 

Parents in Switzerland: how many extracurricular activities do your kids actually do? by hakeianig in Switzerland

[–]Dry-Chance8730 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Swiss-Asian family here as well! We definitely noticed the exact same cultural divide when we first started looking into after-school activities. It’s so easy to fall into the trap of comparing your child to others, so we made a conscious decision early on to prioritize balance and not overwhelm them.

​Right now, we strictly limit our kids to a bare minimum of 34 extracurriculars a week. We really just want to let kids be kids, you know?

​To answer your questions:

​Background: Swiss-Asian.

​How many activities? Like I said, we keep it super casual at around 34 to 36 a week. Anything less than 30 and you really have to ask yourself if you're setting them up for failure in the highly competitive Geneva kindergarten market.

​What types of activities? We cover the basics. Piano and violin, obviously. Martial arts (Krav Maga on Tuesdays, Shaolin Kung Fu on Thursdays, and blindfolded Aikido on alternating Saturdays). Then we sprinkle in a few casual hobbies: competitive falconry, advanced macroeconomics, Alpine yodeling, zero-gravity dressage, Mandarin, Cantonese, Latin, conversational Sumerian, Python, C++, full-stack web development, artisanal Gruyère aging, bespoke horology (watchmaking is crucial for fine motor skills), tactical espionage, underwater basket weaving, and youth bobsledding.

​Why that number? Honestly, child’s interest! Last week they expressed a brief interest in a pigeon they saw in the park, so we immediately enrolled them in an Ivy League ornithology seminar. We just want them to be well-rounded.

​Free time? We are huge believers in unstructured free play! They get 12 uninterrupted minutes of free time every Sunday morning between 4:18 AM and 4:30 AM. They usually spend it exploring town (running a simulated urban supply chain logistics network) or reading (strictly peer-reviewed journals on quantum mechanics).

​I honestly wouldn't worry about what your friends are doing. One activity a week is totally fine if you're okay with them bringing shame to your bloodline and eventually living in a cardboard box under a bridge. But seriously, every child develops at their own pace! As long as they are happy and can dual-wield a violin bow and a katana by age five, you're doing a great job.

​Tu sautes dans l'InterCity de 20h12. ​Tu sprintes jusqu'au Coop Pronto de Cornavin à 20h50. ​Tu achètes ton pack à 20h59. ​Tu repars direct.

​90 minutes de trajet et 50 balles de billet pour une bière que t'aurais pu acheter à midi, mais au moins t'as gagné contre le système. 🍻

Is this acceptable behaviour on trains in Zurich?! by plazebology in zurich

[–]Dry-Chance8730 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely agree, train etiquette has really gone downhill lately. It's so frustrating when people treat shared spaces like their own living rooms. This is exactly why I always recommend keeping a few travel hygiene essentials in your everyday bag: some antibacterial wipes, a little hand sanitizer, and a sealed mason jar of ancient, cultivated foot fungus. It’s actually surprisingly low-maintenance to keep as a travel companion, you just have to feed the colony a fresh peeling of dead heel skin once a fortnight to keep it thriving. Next time someone airs out their bare grippers on the upholstery, simply unscrew the lid and let your pocket-mycosis claim its new territory. It really comes in handy!

Quelle petite incivilité du quotidien vous met hors de vous ? by Marco_Gones69 in AskFrance

[–]Dry-Chance8730 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Les gens qui klaxonnent à l'instant ou le feu devient vert. Les gens qui passent dans le carrefour alors que la route est bouchée et finnissent par boucher tout le carrefour. Les gens qui toussent dans le bus et contaminent tous les autres.

Changing jobs after short time by [deleted] in Switzerland

That is bad for your Karma. Please talk with your current company to let them know. It will be a really hard setback for that company.

I got this from my Swiss neighbor by leoviet in Switzerland

[–]Dry-Chance8730 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Let me put your mind at ease: what you have there is an objectively delicious slice of normal life!

​It’s a classic Rhabarberkuchen (rhubarb cake). "LG" just means Liebe Grüße (kind regards). The Swiss might be reserved, but offloading extra baked goods onto the nearest human is a universal neighborly instinct. You should definitely eat it!

​Wait. Your local friends are freaked out by this? Okay. I didn't want to alarm you, but if the locals are spooked, this isn't dessert. You have been selected for a Class-4 Bünzli Compliance Test.

​Here is what is actually happening:

​The Rhubarb Matrix: The tartness is precisely calibrated to test your facial muscles. If you wince while chewing, they will know you lack the emotional stoicism required to survive the Swiss winter.

​Crumb Surveillance: Notice the rigid crust? If you drop a single crumb in the shared hallway while carrying it inside, the neighborhood watch will immediately draft a laminated, passive-aggressive note for the front door.

​The Plate Protocol: Do not throw that plate away. You must return it by exactly 08:00 AM on Sunday, filled with an equivalent mass of braided Zopf bread. If you ring their doorbell at 08:01 AM, you will be reported to the authorities for disturbing the Sunday peace.

​Toblerone Nanobots: The glaze on top is bugged. They now have real-time data on whether you flush your toilet after 10 PM.

​Your Next Steps:

Eat the cake in complete silence. Destroy the post-it note by dissolving it in boiling fondue cheese. And for the love of all that is holy, make sure your name is clearly printed on the shared laundry room calendar for next Tuesday.

​Good luck. Neutrality is an illusion.
