No, it is not, your premise is false (in our real world. TM.) but your reasoning is good.

Energy does not vanish, you need a process to remove energy of a system.

Think in the planets orbiting the sun or the energy contained in a damm with millions liters of water. The energy is not dissipating itself, it is constant, forever.

So as long as the system is not disturbed, keeping the system in the same state is energy free because you only need energy to alter the system. Even of the energy distributions is not evenly balanced through it.

Disclaimer about the real world

I am not deaf and fortunately nobody from my family is.

But I have a friend who is a electronic technician and he activates those implants, make some checks up after a month and make sure the fine running is adapted to your needs.

He is under paid, needs to travel a lot, working on Sundays when needed and some times his working hours are long and exhausting.

He still says he has the fucking best job of the world and he is not thinking in switching in a million years.

I guess they work good and they are quite rewarding if just the technicians are this devote to the job

I have several flags:

• when people is not able to focus a discussion in the specific thema and tend to divage
• when somebody is reassuring that two things are same/not same but they can explain why they are the same or not
• when they are not able to identify a contradiction in their own arguments, and once you point on that still negates the contradiction
• when don’t know how to explain difficult / advance concepts they should master in easy terms / vocabulary

And a few more, but not so strong like these ones

So you are impliciting saying that this behavior will damage the profit share of shop and nothing else, because almost nothing will be reverted into the workers.

And only once the share profit is not enough, excuse me, decided to be insuficiente by the ceo to fulfill the gross margin of the full multinational company, those workers will suffer the consequences even if there were not any stealing.

It is ironic that this appears in a post about understanding difficult and not obvious relationships between complex concepts :)

And no, I am not justifying anything, this post in only for the sake of understanding a complex pattern

The negative one!

I don’t like the tone of the news, it is not ideal but it is much better than showed by this one.

He is not really pro-palestine but anti-genocide.

Small but important difference

I grow up in a Spanish culture, and mägo is a very famous band with a very long history.

More than a band is almost an institution, people come and go regularly but they are always there.

They have a lot of good songs, so I am pretty sure you will enjoy them. And no, I haven’t been able to see them in live yet.

Awaiting the opportunity then!

Did I win something? :)

Mägo de Oz!!!

Mr Pratchett is genuinely a writer in a million, he is the only person when I knew he had his mental problems (was dementia?) I really felt terrible for him and for knowing that his legacy was going to stop…

Enjoy his books and if you accept a tip, don’t skip any book, even the non discworld ones

Terry Pratchett.

No one, absolutely no one was able to master so many different styles, from theologist essays (smaller gods) to thriller novel (all the guards trilogy) . And in all of them you can find many quotes that could be at the same level as some of the best philosophers in the old continent.

His novel defended the igualitary access to almost everything (equal rites, witches) , decompose social classes (almost in every book) ,speaks about slavism (the golem set of books) and how the things interact to each other in order to create the society we know. And more important, it also show how difficult is to change it.

I addition you could find great explanation of the most important secrets of the universe, and last but not least, in some books he show an exquisite sense of humor.

I understand that his style is not for everybody, and first time it could even generate a rejection. But which genius of its area didn’t create such feeling??

It is time to start recognizing him as the genius and master he is.

The fuck, this is the ancient form of life used in all cthulhu cults!!

It has the rune of the ancient chants ph’nglui mglw’nafh Cthulhu R’lyeh wgah’nagl fhtagn

Not good, you are going to lose a lot of stuff, from personal relations, connections to your wife and even your health.

I hope (really) your are not in a compromised financial situation and this is really temporary. If so, it is OK but you need to have a plan to reduce the hours in the foresable future.

If this is not the situation, then learn how to disconnect from the work in the spare time and spent quality time when possible, also do cardio. It helps. A lot.

When you are young you can really chew everything it is throwed at you, but it is not true anymore when you are past the 40s.

Take care of yourself, nobody else is going to do it.
