In addition to Crimea, Donetsk and Luhansk regions of Ukraine were also invaded in 2014, and a lot of the area that was invaded then is still occupied today.

Instead of a 4-day workweek how about setting reasonable hiring standards so that hundreds of thousands of people out of work, especially non-native German speakers, have a chance of getting past the job application screen.

Most jobs, even in tech, in DE currently require good knowledge of German, and "good" is being interpreted as near-native.

Just to clarify that the Starlink service isn’t being provided for free — many of volunteers (and not just them) are paying for subscriptions with their credit cards. [1]

I’m sure there are additional costs for Starlink operations in Ukraine vs other countries, such as extra measures against jamming etc so the operation is less profitable in Ukraine than elsewhere.

And from what I understand there are some terminals that work without a subscription (although I haven’t seen any info about them specifically).

But it’s not free for many users in Ukraine.

There is an open company registry, it’s possible to see the companies a person owns in Estonia, and how much revenue those companies have generated in the past quarter through rik.ee. Doesn’t require registration to search.

More specifically:

Settings.app —> Privacy —> Location services —> Camera

and turning off the “precise location” option for the Camera app that way.

It would be ideal if there were an “EXIF data” toggle in the Camera section that could allow sharing pictures with apps but with all metadata removed.

Right, and beyond the value proposition of the email service, you are also serving your customers _by_ being profitable. Because this suggests that your service will be around in many years and hopefully won’t change in ways that users won’t appreciate (which is common with funded companies these days).

Agreed, I personally view them as a bridge between the traditional brokerage model that more traditional investors can understand and use, and the crypto world that is looking to be separate from the traditional model.

Yep, foodpairing.com is a great tool for this. In the longer term I would prefer to not to need it at all, but for now foodpairing + a set of cooking patterns is what I am concentrating on.

Thanks for the book titles, added to the top of the reading list!

Sincerely saying, I have never made a demi-glace, although I should have. Will try after studying the process, thanks for sharing!

For me, Escoffier’s book is probably comparable to Bjarne Stroustrup’s “The C++ Programming Language”, at least by complexity of the material, so I am somewhat afraid of using it. As far as I know, “Le Guide Culinaire” is used as a source of recipes for the Master Chef exam, for example.

Maybe I should try approaching it again with some patience. Cheers!

A great suggestion, thank you so much. A couple of people told me that already, so I think I will add such a plan very soon.

By the way, if you were to subscribe for such a 'micro' plan, would you prefer to be charged for the delivery once a quarter or to get it distributed among the quarter’s months?

Thanks for the kind words about the design :) Cheers!

This is a great project, to my mind. My grandfather told me the basics when I was around three years old, but I’ve never really approached tactics, especially in such a structured, accessible and clear way you do it in the videos.

You definitely got me hooked up on this for some time :) Thanks, Andrew, to you and your team!
