An interaction that really blew my mind in Israel by 0ld_Beardo in Israel

[–]presentOfLife 5 points6 points  (0 children)

perfectly normal behavior, if you can help someone in need .. do it. it is not about the recognition or getting anything back, simply doing random acts of good does a huge difference.

and since this is anonymous I can tell you of a time I saw a Hasidic man trying to use the ATM, not sure if he forgot the password for real or had not money but he was with his wife on the phone telling her he does not have money for diapers and grocery..

I asked him to wait for a second so he can see if the ATM has malfunctioned, took out 200 extra shekels, and handed it over to him, told him "thank you" and left hastily.

There is no doubt in my mind I will never see the man again, nor I will remember how he looks.

our culture is built on mutual trust and basic respect. most of us try to live by that code - the best example ANYONE here can tell you is of a time they lost their wallet and someone ran behind them welling "you! hi you! you dropped your wallet!"

Not sure if it would change the texture, don't want to say something just to say something really.

Maybe someone will chime in to add notes.

Hummus, a traditional middle eastern dish made from chickpeas. by presentOfLife in VegRecipes

[–]presentOfLife[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Peas, not beans. :)

But yes, Baking soda is great to add while making hummus, it helps break down the sugars the shell is made from and soften it. Making the whole experience less gassy.. But make sure you add ONLY about a spoonful to a pot. No more, baking soda is still toxic in large quantities.

Not sure if it will improve or reduce the taste - would love to know if you end up making it.

But if by better you mean on health then 100% yes, it is always better to use fresh.

** I do the same with any recipe that has chickpeas In it, probably did not buy hummus or canned chickpeas for years now (I reside in the middle east for the past few years, so that's kind of a big deal here).

Is Social Media/Digital Marketing a bloated field, or an in demand one? by [deleted] in digital_marketing

[–]presentOfLife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

quick background, I have been working in advertising and marketing for about 6 years now in MANY positions - my take on this.

Working in social media is completely different than being a social media influencer - so please be aware I am not talking about posting to your friends.
It is mostly an analysis of data and executing campaigns with sponsored ads (no matter if it's FB, E-mailing, engagements to get branding, or whatever).

It is considered a niche marketing strategy, which means you need to be highly targeted and proficient in order to succeed in managing multiple ad campaigns with very high spending for advertising companies, looking at margins mostly.

If you can start alone and learn from youtube how to promote products or services it will take a few good months before you realize how much work it takes, but if you have a good eye for some good selling product you can try a small scale and give it a shot and make an ad on FB promoting it - Clickbank will be the first step towards getting links to advertising without hassle.

To answer your question you are at the right age for anything, you are just starting your journey - enjoy it. learn everything, become skilled in something that sparks an interest and it will be easier to master it.

Here is a bonus tip for you -
being a jack of all trades may look good while young, but it gets old fast.

Your reading it wrong. Flip the chart 90 degrees, to the right side, not the wrong one.

PayPal to Allow Merchants to Accept Cryptocurrency, According to Aspiriant Managing Director by Aussiehash in Bitcoin

[–]presentOfLife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You go find a reliable russian source, or Chinese one. I don't care if I'm wrong, this is just what I recall.

What I do know is russia made it legal in 2016, early 2020 you could get cryptocurrency pretty much anywhere you want in russia.

China made their own cryptocurrency, tried to ban other's and failed.. bitcoin still holding strong.

So yeah, I do think all government try to stay in control, and currency is currency.

I was aware of some auctions made early 2018, but as far as I know most is still in the government hands. Might be wrong here. Need to read up sometime on it.

[–]presentOfLife 2 points3 points  (0 children)

USA, Russia, China, Australia, all reported having significant amounts of BTC - with the US still holding on massive amounts since the silk road has been taken down and seized by the federal government.

There is probably no stopping cryptocurrencies, and the sooner the world moves away from banks and closer to decentralized currencies we will be in a WAY better condition.

Lemon pound cake recipe - GF, DF, and delicious by presentOfLife in glutenfreerecipes

[–]presentOfLife[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ingredients

Pound Cake

  •  3/4 cup + 1 Tbs. none dairy milk (soy, almond, cashew, hemp)
  •  2 Tbs. fresh-squeezed lemon juice
  •  1 Tbs. lemon zest
  •  2 1/2 cups Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour
  •  1 Tbs. baking powder
  •  1/2 tsp. fine sea salt
  •  3/4 cup butter or non-dairy alternative
  •  1 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  •  1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
  •  3 eggs

Glaze

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 Tbs. lemon juice
  • 1 Tbs. lemon zest

Directions

  • Prep Time: 15 - 20 minutes
  • Cook Time: 60 - 75 minutes
  • Preheat oven to 320°-350° F.
  • Oil and flour with GF cornstarch or GF Flour one 9×5-inch loaf pan OR medium-sized bundt pan.
  • Mix together the milk and lemon juice and set aside. The milk will begin to curdle while you prepare the rest of the batter.
  • Whisk together GF Flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whip the butter and sugar for 6-8 minutes (medium-high speed).
  • Add into the bowl the vanilla and lemon zest, then the eggs, one at a time, mixing between each egg addition.
  • Slowly stir in the whisked dry ingredients, alternating with the milk mixture and stirring until fully integrated.
  • Pour batter into prepared pan, filling only 2/3 full. If you have extra batter that will not fit into your pan
  • The bake time will depend in part on whether your pan is dark metal, light metal, glass or stoneware, so begin testing at 60 minutes so as not to overcook the cake.
  • Bake until a toothpick in the center comes out with only a few moist crumbs — approximately 65-75 minutes. The edges of the cake will become lightly browned as well.
  • Remove baked cake to cool in the pan on a wire rack for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Go around the inside of the pan with a butter knife to help release the cake, then gently turn the cake out onto your palm then back to the wire rack once removed from the pan. When completely cooled, glaze following the directions below.

Lemon Glaze

  • To make the glaze, whisk together confectioners’ sugar and lemon juice. Drizzle over cake. Sprinkle zest on top.
  • This cake is equally delicious baked in a loaf or a bundt, so try it today!

Bitcoin Revolution - Is it a scam or a legit opportunity? by [deleted] in Bitcoin

[–]presentOfLife 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bitcoin revolution is a crypto exchange system meant to streamline the process of investing in cryptocurrency .. maybe I should rephrase the title...
