Do not overeat!

Food gives you energy after your body process it.

If you want quick energy take a sugary snack, but don't expect it to last.

If you want energy for the day take a full meal, but then you need some chilling time for your body to digest.

Such are the trades of life my friend.

P.S. That cat has the purrfect expression though.

borders

Europe had it's borders defined by wars for millennia. So i guess it's only fitting we decided the borders, and that it lead to more war.

Remade for clarity

Dialectic can never be a science, you can't apply the same methodology. Even when it's material.

However it is philosophy, and if your searching for some material reality then it's ontology.

Science too is a product of ontology, it's a methodology created for this exact purpose and wich can be studied in this field.

Saying physical properties are social abstractions sounds to me like social constructivism, which is epistemology, again philosophy.

Social sciences can be soft science precisely when they are not dialectic and rely on the methodology of science.

And to be clear, soft science is just a science that is based on a hard science, in which we don't have enough work done to explain every emergent properties using fundamental properties of matter.

Psychoanalysis is an outdated philosophical theory, so indeed just a scam now.

I don't know when we started using the word.

But switch is more about dom/sub. Whereas vers can be just about who penetrates who.

Just like top and bottom it can be a bit ambiguous sometimes between the position and the fetish.

Bankruptcy is lifesaving

In France after high school you pay 170€ the first 3 years the 243€ the next two, 100€ more each year if you don't have aides from the government. Some engineering schools (~600€) or private schools are more expensive.

That's a total of 1496€ for a 5y curriculum at most, if you don't have any aides. (810€ for a shorter 3y one)

For reference the monthly minimum wage is 1398.69€ (without tax).

So if you work two months at McDonald's you can literally pay your entire education with enough room to spare if you didn't pass some years.

(Engineering schools is more but it isn't crazy either)

That's without any help, but we have some cheap apartment specifically for students, help to pay the rent. And in addition to this you can get a sizable amount depending on the income of the parents, sometimes enough to live on.

So why in the hell would you pay 50k. That's 33 times as much, guys just come to France, or the EU and your set lol

Especially for anything tech related, don't wait for a school to teach you, you'll have way more fun and learn so much more by yourself.

At least until college, then it depends...
