Do you have any research about other Cluster B personalities that "enjoy looking into the eyes of someone while life fades away, or seeing the tears come out due to powerlessness and suffering" ? Or you just want to write about APD, but want to add some science-based words?
Also, the "APD-prone" positions are often higher management. Which are causing every possible type of pain, from 1 to 1, to massive downsizing on the other part of the world, but more of the second type - one would assume they would choose something closer to victims, if their only motive is causing pain. There is also their tendency for risk-taking and ease with making "hard decisions (due to lack of empathy and mentioned tendency for risk-taking), which also explains such high positions in companies.
You also has Ustasě in Croatia and Josef Tiso in Slovakia.
On the other hand - although Catholic higher-ups were generally spared, not the same could be said about other priests in Poland (like Kolbe) . During 2 WW, it's hard to treat Catholicism as a one religion, because it was very important to put it into national-ideological context of the country. Most often church was supporting more conservative, right-leaning groups, as a contra to socialist, who were much more anticlerical then.
Germany had issues with Catholics long before III Reich. Check the Kulturkampf under Bismarck - it had a stong national element, as Catholicism was tied to Poles, and Poles and their interest in Silesia weren't exactly liked by German authoroties.
I think he writes to people who have issues with starting due to decision paralysis due to multiple options. Complicated note systems are fine if they come from natural evolution of users "note enviroment", but a hell if you don't have any notes yet, and thus no idea if you should organise them by tags, date, lenght, topic, graph of links or their combination.
Flexitarian trying to eat less meat here.
- Mushrooms are awesome, but they are trash were it comes to nutiotion values. Not bad, just empty.
- Protein-rich vegetables (legumes and beans) are not so easy to make into tasty dish, if you are not used to them. Meat alternatives often have high protein content and they don't requiere... Anything.
- I don't have time to discover whole, new world of vegan cuisine, tips and tricks about lentils, fava bean caseroles and other things. I want a normal dinner, just without animals in it.
It would make sense, if before movies/books/music where bought in grey envelopes without any kind of information of what you are going to watch. But there are genres, descriptions and a lot of information about what you are going to watch. Is information about dead dog more "lowering the treshold of offence" than information that the movie is stoner comedy, not holocaust documentary?
Also, yes, live throws at us more, that's why we create art, partially to escape.
This sounds like there are rational and obligatory prerequisites that should make movie enyoable for every viewer, and if viewer still doesn't like the movie, then he is wrong. And not like enyoment from art is depending on personal taste, situation and state of mind.
Also, there is cinema outside blockbusters, but popcorn doesn't go well with whatever independent cinema is going to haunt the viewer.
Hayes Code was way more restrictive than most kind of "censorships" that people complain nowdays. Not to mention that standards for what obscenity is, were way lower than today and public reactions were as or even more histerical then today.
But Battlefield is not war, it's a simulation of war. It lacks real stakes, extensive physical activity, death and basically everything that make war a war.
Sometimes it looks like designers are using this without any kind of thought. A page in my country, that is used for managing appointments with medical specialists forces user to install it, to read some messages (mostly automated) from this facilities. After installation it tries to remind user that it's there by pushing notifications about it's existence, like anyone is going to be like "I'm bored, I'll check all local urologists and maybe make an appointment with one, just for fun"
If you check previous revolutions and mass movements, overstressed, overworked and underpaid masses are as dangerous, or even more than, well, just overstressed masses. It's not live, laugh, love white middle class that was rioting, because WFH was too much of a burden.
The problem is that USA is already full of unlicensed guns and very specific gun ownership culture. In countries with relatively easy access to guns and low number of similar (Czech Republic comes to mind), gun ownership and it's culture were build on diffrent foundation, so you can't just copy this solutions to USA.
I have 6 medium-sized shops, 2 shops selling only vegetables, 6 small shops selling basics and ready-to-eat meals in 10 minut walk radius. This is a lot, but in other parts of town you will probably have at least one medium and one small shop open between 6-22. It's in city, but most villages in here often have similar situations. So I would say it depends on country.
Depends on a particular city skateboard culture, I guess. They are noisy, but I where I live, I do not meet them outside some very specific locations (public squares, skateparks, etc) , which are far away from residential areas and generally extremly noisy by default.
If Amazon workers collect food stamps, it means Jeff Bezos "just existing" owe them quite a lot of money.
Also, bussiness and innovation requieres good infrastructure. For some reason most tech startups do not start in tax heavens like Somalia, but in highly developed countries.
> Is that why they're saying it doesn't work? Or is it a different reason? Because I see people citing all sorts of possible reasons and intuition can only go so far in knowing which ones are important.
The Spotify data about like/dislike is rather accurate (like 80-100%), as long as someone doesn't click under substance influence.
Third party data (according to article) has accuracy around 4%-44%.
"The traffic infrastruture sucks", he lamented, stuck in traffic, but finally getting to the restaurant to meet his wife. Now, he is driving his kids every day to school, because low quality of infrastructure makes it dangerous to walk, but children are attending school, and even additional karate lessons. Then the children got their cars, and are now stuck in traffic, but they also get to their deatinations! And they also lament, that the infrastructure sucks.
But is this econony better for everyone, or just for some?
In my city apartmenrs bought en masse by headgefunds, and developers trying to sell 7m2 cages as "microapartments" as most people are unable to buy a normal one.
So perspective may be different, because housing market is booming, but most people won't buy an apartment.
Stupid issue, but : if you are in a really bad shape and obese, making a push-up (or even something slightly resembling it) is really hard, when simple weightlifting exercises are almost always possible.
How much art, science and deep, personal perspectives were lost due to abuse and death stemming from substance abuse? In case of certain substances (like alcohol) we have rather hard statistics about it's overal impact on physical and mental condition of society. Slow change from alcohol to safer alternatives (ex. cannabis) is probably one of the best trends in current times.
The part about workers reacring really bad to forced rearragements reminds me of a time, when company removed flowers from my desk. Somehow this hurted more than bad micromanager and problematic coworkers.
Edit : Everyone could have flowers and they were given by the company earlier. Just mine dissapeared.
Poland made a huge step back when it comes to trains after 1990 - there is a good book by Karol Trammer "Ostre cięcie" about disastrous cuts.
On the other hand - Pendolino is a real step forward, and at least Cracow is trying to improve general quality and invest in intra-city trains, which maybe not the fastest, but still much better than buses or trams.
Depends on team size and topics. If the whole meeting is to clarify or explain some topic about the task one person is doing, inviting a whole team and spamming calendars with niche discussion is also counterproductive.
I guess it started with Cold War, and Chomsky is just part of the generation that distrusted goverment due to internal issues (racism, womans laws, etc), but later started beliving that information about USSR are also fake.
What is weird from my perspective is shifting this perspective to modern Russia. When USSR tried to push pro-feminist, pro-international propaganga against USA, current Russia and pro-Russia movements are not hiding their disgust with LGBT+, abortion, multiculturalism and such. Which looks like minorities in this countries should be sacrificed on altar of anti-USA sentiment.
