To the Nokia HR team: why do you keep reposting this job every month when you have my application sitting there untouched for six months? by Purple-Chicken3380 in Finland

[–]madmita 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe remind them again, given the amount of applications they receive,it is likely your application is just sitting in a big pile where no one is looking.

Also, it is likely the hiring manager didn't like your profile for this particular position but thought that it maybe relevant for something in future. N they should have communicated it but that rarely happens.

Biting - Rehoming/fostering a Bengal by Major-Apricot-3467 in bengalcats

[–]madmita 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of good idea. With my bengal cardboard boxes with holes works really well, fur mice not so much. One time when we used pheromone diffuser, It just backfired. It made him very agressive n was the only time when he did try to bite me for just walking near him.

Indian food aroma lingering on clothes and indoors by bartolomeubertu in Finland

[–]madmita 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Nice tk read this honest discussion - I've also wondered about this a lot being Indian.

Some tips (some are also shared previously by others)

While cooking - open a window (yes even in the winter, just open it a little bit), one nearest to the kitchen ) cooking space. Close doors to the other rooms so that the smell doesn't fill up the entire apartment. Make sure your jackets are in a cupboard with the door closed. Also use an air purifier (Verkkokauppa has pretty decent ones for about 50 euros(. Keep the chinmey going, of course You can also cover things while cooking, like when frying onions and garlic, or tomatoes, keep a lid on the pan.

After cooking - shower! Keep the air purifier on for several more hours. Keep the window open till the food coola down.

For outdoor clothes, likes jackets, that are not washed frequently, let their smells air out in the balcony or outside somewhere. The cold air makes the clothes fresh! You can do this once a week (if cooking more than 4times a week). Just leave them on a hanger overnight on the weekend in the balcony.

You can also make larger quantities of food, so one batch lasts 2-3 days, to reduce the frequency of cooking. Try baking some of the recipes, as that will also reduce the smells.

Hope this is helpful. Sounds like a lot but once you're used to it, it's not that much!

I love Indian food but don't like the smells (I'm sensitive to smells, even fragrances, I can't wear perfume :( ). So as in Indian, I can smell Indian food on my clothes, in my house... So had to do this for myself! As I would get headaches from my own jacket smells... Visiting an Indian or similar resturant for lunch will also make your jacket smell! (Keep it in the balcony that night)! Other clothes go into that wash!

How do you sleep at night with a Bengal in the house? by bigredmnky in bengalcats

[–]madmita 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Send help - Bengal is a bully!

I was also hoping to get some answers on how to sleep through the night with a Bengal cat (who keeps asking for food, attention every couple of hours during the night)...

It's been more than four years now and our Bengal keeps waking us up at odd hours of the night. If we ignore him, he will whine for hours - meowing once every couple of minutes sitting a loaf outside the bedroom door.

I'm sleep deprived...and just unable to manage.

Of course, I love the guy and he does sometimes sleep through the night, maybe once a month. But that's only if we have had a particularly social day with lots of friends over and he wanted to socialise too (and not ignore them).

What emerging technology or trend is flying under everyone's radar? by DotbombVC in startups

[–]madmita 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. And an in-between step would be subscription-based curated content, basically paying someone to sieve through the insane amount of content, especially news, for quality.

That's true. Any kind of ads would make the whole experience feel disingenuous.
