I am thankful to the Bulgarian Parliament for recognizing the 1932-1933 Holodomor as a genocide of the Ukrainian people. This step commemorates millions of Holodomor victims and restores historical justice. Bulgariaβs gesture of solidarity will always be remembered in Ukraine.
Building side projects at night and on weekends in my early 20s allowed me to become financially independent and quit my job today.
Don't listen to anyone who shames you for working too much and not having a work-life balance.
No pain no gain.
What people don't realize is that this is the default state of housing in a market economy, and it's great for consumers. Turning aging homes into an investment vehicle by artificially constraining supply, the way it's done in the US and many other places, is extremely harmful.
IMO, the quitting tech and going to work on a farm meme cause "tech/coding/computers = the worst" is such an ungrateful take.
Being in tech has the best job expectations: incredible pay, ridiculous benefits, respect, safe workspaces, good hours, and so much more.
Be thankful!
Honestly Medvedev is such a disgusting human being nowadays, I find it hard to believe at times... I miss those days when he was just a clown serving Putin, at least people thought of him somewhat positively back then and he didn't spout nonsense every other day
I keep getting messages from government advisors who are desperate for ideas to "unlock the Brexit dividend" or "slash EU red tape".
You know what would be really great for business? Access to a single market with 450 million extra customers.
First trip to Japan in 3 years, just in a few days... So excited, I can't believe I am finally going back!
Here's a stunning Tokyo Station picture I took back in 2019
A common source of disappointment is recency bias: weighing the last week more heavily than the last year.
Zooming in on the immediate past magnifies slumps. Zooming out farther reveals upward slopes.
Progress is rarely visible at a snapshot in time. It unfolds over a lifetime.
Finally upgraded to pay-rails version 6, after dreading it would be hard to migrate all the way from 3 - but managed to do it in one go. As always a testament to
My wish for 2023 is to finally see this tyrant be held accountable for all his crimes and never see his mug again on TV or elsewhere. Stand Strong Ukraine, I know the victory is not too far off now πΊπ¦
Putinβs New Yearβs address is a bleak tirade justifying his invasion of Ukraine. He rants about βtraitors,β βwestern lies,β βneo-Nazis,β plots to βsplit Russia apart,β and the conquest of Russiaβs βhistorical territories.β Imagine watching this over your babushkaβs olivier salad

What kinda stuff will you be able to create with GPT-4!?

After 11 years in the UK, I've finally achieved one of my biggest goals in life - I've become a British Citizen.
It's been a tough and long road, but it's all been worth it. The world of opportunities is fully open to me now and I couldn't be happier!
Every founder/CEO in Silicon Valley is looking at the purge underway at Twitter under Elon, and wondering if they can finally correct the mistake of allowing the Borg into their companies by doing the same.
Good conversation. Among other things, we resolved the misunderstanding about Twitter potentially being removed from the App Store. Tim was clear that Apple never considered doing so.
Frank Sinatra's My Way is being played on the dark streets of Kyiv.
Despite russian shelling, despite the darkness and cold, Ukrainians will win. We will forge our own path.
Mastodon seems like a honeytrap for hall-monitor personality types. Honestly if Elon gets all the hall monitors to migrate to Mastodon that might be his greatest contribution toward the betterment of humanity. https://twitter.com/moorehn/status/1594315813913169920β¦
