    How to deal with the new AI era?

    QUESTION 
    We shouldn't forget that most people are lazy and either don't have the time or don't want to spend the effort of doing things themselves and they have their reasons. We are still buying postcards and buying stationary that we could easily make ourselves. There are still people asking questions...

    ChatGPT AI is a huge breakthrough, a Google killer

    - AI - 
    AI is a great help so far, but I am curious if it will stay available for normal people indefinitely or if they will slowly keep restricting it more and more in its answers, so you get the answers the developers think you need and not the actual truth. For writing code and brainstorming...

    Business, as a teenager.

    INTRO 
    Great that you got acquainted with the idea of starting your own business while still young. This will give you the opportunity to prepare and work on it and you can have a head start. You will have to make your own way and google how to do that yourself. MJ Demarco recently mentioned Cole...

    Scaling a window cleaning company

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Germany tries to deter you from becoming a millionaire before even starting, because the first things you get as soon as you register are taxes and expenses. You can try to argue that you do not qualify for membership, but then they will put you in another chamber - German burocracy. In any...

    Unsure if i should ditch my business

    EXECUTION 
    Going broader will require some thinking, but will be a good thing in the long run. You can easily start a new website and market good products e.g. for older dogs, for joint problems, for back pain, etc. I would recommend to offer various options regarding package size and price. And do not put...

    ADD - Distraction, procrastination and a lifeline to become a productive Master again.

    MINDSET 
    I like many of the things you write about. We are fairly sure that small changes in the dopamine receptor play a role in ADHD and exercise and such help to bring more dopamine to our synapses. But before taking magic mushrooms with unknown properties and non-standardized dosage, you may want to...

    Finding job contracts in Europe

    INVESTING 
    It is not that easy, because each country has their own rules and if these are not legitimate jobs, it may cause legal problems. You probably need some sound legal groundwork. Otherwise there probably is a market for it.

    IDEA 
    The founder of red bull in Europe, got the recipe from a Thai drink and changed the recipe together with the Thai company and both took a fair share of the profits. They both became very rich!

    Would you move to Hamburg, Germany?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    The cost of living may be a lot higher than you think, eating up your pay raise and visiting family in Portugal will also incur extra cost. If you move to Germany move to former eastern Germany because of the low housing prices and affordable (state pays 2/3) daycare. I would not have my child...

    What to eat if you can't cook/fry/boil anything?

    And who knows, maybe the family will slowly catch up. Sometimes it takes a little inspiration.

    I'm going to ask Mj if he'd like me to introduce myself in private first. Then if he approves, I'll make an announcement of who I am.

    INTRO 
    I'd rather say as a paranoid schizophrenic. But we could be wrong and he could just be a former ally of the Russian leader.

    Where it all started.

    INTRO 
    You sound like someone who will make his way in life one way or another. I had the same experience at university. After discovering I could write the exams for the next years to come, I had basically 2 years off in med school after that, because of time restricted graduation requirements. You...

    Online Course Business

    EXECUTION 
    While I don‘t think an engineer will pay for a course on writing c.v. as there are many free resources available, there is always a need for continuing education content. In fact I offer such courses and this will probably be something you can do quote well during your PhD.

    Are you an author/writer?

    QUESTION 
    You can refer to other publications, but you have to quote your source. If you quote literally, you should put in quotation marks. In the EU you can quote up to 15% of a certain source. I would research the local rules on what constitutes plagiarism. Ask the owner or look at the rules. You...

    Book discussion: Die With Zero by Bill Perkins

    BOOKS 
    The important thing will be, to actually achieve it. My uncle saved a million and when he died we fiund that he had participated in courses like „how to transfer your inheritance without taxes“, but… he never did something about it. Just imagine 40% of his hard-earned inheritance went to the IRS...

    My overprized iphione that people had trouble understanding me with from day one is going. I was going to purchase an iphone 14, but this is the final straw. The same for planned purchase of iMac - dont like the new colors anyway. It will be a hassle, but it can be done. Removing myself from the...

    Governments are not even able to plan for the next few years or to retreat from Afghanistan in an orderly manner.
