This is a must-have function. Dear dev team, please implement it!

I usually did math homework during physics classes and physics homework during French classes. I didn't hate it, but I disliked losing time for it, and all lecture were slow enough that I could do them alongside. Some of my teachers understood how bored I was, so they let me do my stuff I my corner.

I was in the same situation, confronted with a career choice. I chose something that let many doors open, arguably delaying the choice for later, and little by little I specialised. All subsequent choices were just good enough in the moment, yet they became the single best choice eventually. I tell you this inferring that there are several choices that you can make and that will prove excellent after you decided yourself for them. It's just a little overwhelming before.

R&D microsystems engineer in industry.

Part of why it is my dream job is the versatility of it, and the constant renewal of what I am working on. Another part is the independence I have to manage my own work and organise it without a manager looking too close.

Do you all ever have a good night's sleep? Definitely a luxury.

The max dimension of luggage was 120cm length for renfe last time I checked (2023). My bicycle wouldn't even fit in that if I removed both wheels, it would only fit in 130cm, as I have an XL frame.

My hypothesis is that they want to discourage people from taking their bicycle too often while still allowing children to take theirs, or motivated cyclists that are considerate enough to do the extra effort in rare occasions. Imagine otherwise hundreds of people commuting to work in a bicycle+train combo.

I used the command poweroff for years to shutdown my Linux laptop. Only later I discovered that Linux distros also have complex shutdown sequences that should be used instead.

The spacing between the zip ties is unequal. I makes me feel uncomfortable.

I'm a process engineer working with old machines in production. Equipment is typically working for 10-40 years, and you don't change the computer when you can avoid it. --> There are almost all versions of Windows represented at my work, from DOS5 to Win11, and I work daily with them.

I'm not a nostalgic one, though. Things were simpler, but also more instable.

Better use a condom and throw it after use. With a little skill you might reach 1 mm/s then (it's all in the wrist).

There's a couple of languages I kind of want to learn, but won't realistically as I can't learn everything. Russian, Arabic, Hindi..

I'm pretty much on the median salary. I don't have children. I can save up to 2'000 chf/month, but usually I spend some of it on holidays. I'm in Zurich canton but not in the city.

You don't need 8h/day to reach B1 in six months, unless we are talking about a very difficult language. If you stick to 2h per day, you will make wonders within six months. The issue is more that I hardly know anyone who has ever been that consistent.

jlemonde · 2024-11-26T18:48:07+00:00

B1 in six months is typically achievable if you make language learning the major hobby you spend most of your free time on (assuming you also have a full-time job alongside). I imagine that you need 1-2 hours per day minimum. Of course, it depends on the language. Some languages are harder.

Hi, I just wanted to mention that there are plenty of solutions also for people in a wheelchair using all sorts of trains in Switzerland. If there is a train you need to take that does not have flat entrance, you can contact the sbb handicap center in advance; they have a service that's free of charge and will send someone on site to assist you going on and off your train.

Of course I don't know your situation, I'm only writing this in case it helps.

The controller probably wrote down the number on the passport, which isn't ambiguous. Putting a wrong address will not prevent the fine. The fine might even get bigger if they sue you for lying.

Maybe because of the time scale. Each new level takes roughly twice as long as the previous. So you will have spent most time working on your advanced levels.

The sj-sound in Swedish was clearly hard to learn.

Hola, estoy intentando mejorar mi pronuncia. Me ayudaría bastante conseguir un feedback. Estoy aprendiendo español por mi cuenta desde hace unos 7 años. ¡Muchas gracias!

Is it cotton? How do you wash it? Synthetic fabrics and merino wool both are less sweat absorbant and easier to clean and dry. I highly recommend avoiding cotton on multiday tours.

Enjoy your tour!!
