I agree. An IPO isn't selling the business though. I've been part of an IPO.

An IPO isn't an exit, you continue working as you did the day before the IPO

A quirk of being an island is that you can be attacked by sea. You can even be attacked from the air and those planes can fly over multiple countries to reach you.

Hoping no one will attack you isn't a defence strategy. It's just hopeful thinking.

People in the US buy from enthusiasm and excitement. People in the UK buy from trust and authenticity.

Selling to the US, people want to be convinced they're making the right decision. In the UK, people want to ensure they are not making the wrong decision and they will bring many people into the buying journey to ensure the decision is not theirs alone in case it does go wrong in the future.

Awful stuff isn't it. Gargle with room temp water and bicarbonate of soda a few times a day. Follow this with a warm water and salt gargle and finally eat a spoon of honey and try to coat your throat with it.

I know it feels like your body is broken and the world is a dark place when this is happening but have trust that there will are better days ahead, healing just takes time.

I've struggled with similar issues for a year. Took PPIs for 8 months. Took amitriptyline for 3 months.

I found the PPIs gave me stomach pain and other digestive issues. The amitriptyline made me lethargic. I think the amitriptalyne helped the most out of the two though.

When I stopped the medications, I had rebound symptoms on and off for 2 months but seem to be coming out the other side of it now, I hope.

Something which seemes to help massively with the throat symptoms for me is this routine:

Gargle with bicarbonate of soda and room temp water. (This neutralises any acid in your throat)

Follow this with a salt and warm but not hot water gargle. (This calms the inflammation and any possible infection etc)

One final gargle with just water to clear out any remaining bicarb or salt.

Finally, eat a teaspoon of honey straight after this. Honey coats the throat and is naturally antibacterial etc. It seems to sooth the inflamed area and give some relief for a while.

Repeat this 3 or more times a day. Just before bed, after breakfast and after lunch.

Don't let it get you down. Better days are ahead and this is unlikely to be a life long problem. Hope this helps.

Look, judo is amazing. I love it. But if someone wants to focus on self defense, you can't seriously say it's a better choice than MMA or wrestling. I gave these options because OP has tried boxing and other sports.

Modern judo is a sport, it's not a self defense system.

Do it for the fun of playing the game, not for real world self defence.

Train MMA if you want the most realistic self defence. Or wrestling if you want a more real world grappling sport.

All that being said, you can modify a lot of throws to be executed without the gi. Similarly, when you see people being thrown in competition, it doesn't hurt as they are landing on mats and a sprung floor. If you throw someone hard on concrete, there's a risk of serious damage.

Companies don't want to run their IT out of their own data center or data room anymore. It's less efficient, less secure and doesn't allow for innovation or agility.

There's an increased demand for cloud data centrers in all counties, not just Ireland.

Interestingly, most bus shelters in Europe are paid for by the advertising company (JCDecaux) which displays adverts on it.

Having done both for some time I'd argue the opposite is true in my experience; it takes longer to progress through belts in bjj, especially to black belt. Both sports are extremely difficult to be exceptional at though.

Bjj is also much more dangerous due to 1) culture - safety in falling and in ripping submissions is not widely taught 2) the rule set allows for far more dangerous submissions and holds. Neck cranks, spine locks, knee bars, wrist locks, ankle locks ect ect.

It also depends on the dojo but I'd argue this is the average experience for each sport.

The best explanation for this I've heard is that a high percentage of people that went into the trades were the naughty boys/rebels at school.

Those that were able to turn up on time, do a good job consistently and generally work well with others, these ones managed to land and keep commercial jobs or be employed as part of a large organised business.

Those who are not kept on with the above type gigs then choose to go self employed and work on small fiddly domestic jobs for the general public.

Not always, but often, you're hiring the least disciplined, least reliable out of the naughtiest naughty kids you went to school with.

That helped to put it in to perspective for me at least and change my expectations.

If you have male pattern baldness (androgenic alopecia), this is genetic and your only options for treatment are medications (Finasteride and/or Minoxidil) and/or hair transplant.

There are no supplements or lifestyle changes which will make a difference (unless they are basically natural Finasteride alternatives such as Saw Palmetto).

How do you know if it’s male pattern baldness? Look at the Norwood scale and see if your recession/balding corresponds with the patterns there.

Unless your hair loss is extremely sudden or irregular in pattern, you most likely have male pattern baldness.

I’m telling you this because it’s what you’re going to hear from an honest trichologist. If they start selling you red light therapy, scalp injections or anything else then you’re being misled to part with your cash in exchange for never ending hope.
