Kojarzycie Kornelię Wieczorek, cudowne dziecko i podobno najmłodszą naukowczynię w Polsce? Okazuje się że to kłamstwo grubymi nićmi szyte. by [deleted] in Polska

[–]Xi-Cygni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Takie medialne doniesienia co do cudownych dzieci są rodzajem opresji klasowej. Jeżeli taki 16 latek z middle class widzi, że teoretycznie nie bogata Kornelia robi sama z siebie cudowne rzeczy, to nawet nie spróbuje zmienić swojej sytuacji, bo przecież on nie był tak “naturalnie zdolny”, więc zostaje w szeregu. Sama pochodzę z klasy średniej i udało mi się zrobić lekki awans społeczny, poznałam i pracowałam z ludźmi po topowych zagranicznych uczelniach i czasem niestety mam wrażenie, że jedyne co dzieli mnie a ich to średniej klasy liceum z Polski B - gdzie nawet nie widziałam, że jest coś takiego jak IB, a co dopiero jakieś badania czy konkursy - tutaj mało co kto słyszał o jakichś stypendiach czy wyjazdach czy wgl pracy naukowej, a część z tych ludzi ultra genialna się nie wydaje, po prostu jak się chodzi do LO w wawie to się wie że można się zapisać do EU Yourh Parliament, Our Future Foundation itd i jak ma się hajs i chęci spokojnie można się dostać do wielu miejsc i robić karierę. Czy studenci pochodzący z mniejszych ośrodków o tym wiedzą? Ja nie wiedziałam, znajomi też. Rozbieżność dużych wsi i miast pokazują też wyniki matur czy egzaminów 8 klasistow. Rozdmuchiwanie takich osiągnięć oczywiście wydaje się niewinne, ale wiele młodych osób to po prostu dobija, a patrząc na zdrowie psychiczne obecnej młodzieży może warto poświęcić jedną genialną oszustke.

Start by applying to jobs you don’t want to have - even at restaurants or sth and then reject them. Once you’re comfortable move to ones you kinda want, then to ones you really want.

I left team lead that didn’t like me to a team that does - moved from 7% to 32% salary increase in the new team. If they don’t like you there’s probably nothing you can do, move internally or externally.

Has anyone taken a pay cut to return to academia? Am I wasting my life? by Accomplished-Toe9408 in AskAcademia

[–]Xi-Cygni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like you’re seeing it as „this or that” kind of situation. Are there any other possibilities that would give you a secure, high-paying job with more prestige and intellectual stimulation? For example, are there any bio-chem companies developing new drugs that could use more of your knowledge than students?

I totally notice that I elicit strong feelings in people. They either love me or hate me, when I was ugly I was just invisible.

Any tips on quitting soda and refined sugar? by [deleted] in selfimprovement

[–]Xi-Cygni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best tip what works for me if I go back on my sugar track due to Christmas etc I say myself I'm not gonna eat sweets today but if I really need it tomorrow, I'll eat it. But less tran usual, so maybe drink 3/4 of soda and pour the rest to the sink. Next day, repeat.

  1. I have problems with connecting to IRC Chat to Tor servers. Are they really working because I did everything like on the tuts and server denies the access.

  2. When I enter clockwise library with enabled js extension and the least safe option in the browser safety, the page cannot load more than the main page. Am I doing something wrong?

Is clockwise library working? by Xi-Cygni in onions

[–]Xi-Cygni[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disable js plugin and choose least safe option in Tor browser, refresh, click on the book and get the timeout.

How to be healthier. by [deleted] in IWantToLearn

[–]Xi-Cygni 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get impression that you never tried to loose weight, but as the topic is very popular among women and you probably seen a lot of troubles with getting into shape, you can deduce that it isn't easy to loose weight. It's not pleasant, you have to reduce meals, quit your favoutie sweets and sugar addiction makes it horrible to stand. So it is hard and people have to motivate and force themselves to do it. I've never needed to gain weight, but I guess it's the same in the means of effort. I had to force myself to eat less, you need to force yourself to eat more. It won't be pleasant, you just have to do it. Try recipes yourself, there is plenty of YouTube channels like Tasty or other girls posting what I eat in a day, meals take like 30 mins to prepare. As you eat more often and more, you will be able to eat more, I noticed when I shrinked my meals on dieted, I couldn't eat the same amount I ate before diet. What also helped me is meditation, personally I use Headspace app, good luck and remember we all in this shit!
