I think that almost definition implies you didn't post anything that disqualifies you. It's probably really easy to circumvent too if you're committed to (e.g., deactivate your account)
> In the case of an
applicant who has used any of the social media platforms listed on the visa application in the
preceding five years, the associated social media identifier would be required on the visa
application form.
If it's not diet and exercise, what is it? Obesity is a relatively new problem. GLP-1 also seems to work - primarily through addressing diet. So again, curious what you mean when you say "diet and exercise" do not work.
Just in time works until it doesn't. For the last decade plus companies made outsized profit by squeezing their supply chains to the bare minimum.
Then covid hit and it all fell apart. Companies that had resilient supply chains made outsized profit during this time.
Companies are all about making bets on where they make more money. If you were in the hot seat to maximize quarterly profits would you make the first or second bet?
After years of investing into Google Home, I'm trying to unwind it. The assistant devices have gotten buggier and less responsive. The TV is bloated with ever more ads and suggested videos. They end of lifed the nest security system.
I've always heard that the calculus for a break-in was that even if you had an alarm, they had N minutes to Supermarket Sweep the place before the cops arrived.
Conversely, if there's a surly Rottweiler pacing in the yard, there's the distinct risk if immediate interception.
Frame your argument a little differently - you're saying you can't be proud / ashamed of anything your parents have done (that you didn't contribute to).
Pride or shame is by definition a feeling not legal culpability. A feeling.
Human brains seem wired to have strong feelings about their kin or tribe. So, yes, I would think having neutral feelings about your parents would be a hard thing to understand for most people.
From a purely logical point of view - there's not much point to anything humans do.
Can you break down what the logic of pride should be? Any who determines what that should is. You seem to imply that there's an objective standard for that.
Curious how all these advanced economies will deal with structural deflation when there is decreasing customer demand and consumption for most types of goods.
To expand on this, housing in first-tier cities like Tokyo, Osaka, and Fukuoka is quite expensive (although not bonkers like it's gotten in Canada/Australia/etc). Housing in smaller second- and third-tier cities is very affordable, while still maintaining access to good hospitals, public transit, jobs, and so on. Rural housing is practically free aside from the cost of renovation.
Housing everywhere in Japan is basically free aside from the cost of renovation + the cost of the land. Houses are considered to be disposable there, you're expected to tear it down and build a new one when you buy one, so they are priced accordingly.
The difference is that land in Tokyo etc is expensive.
Old houses in rural areas often need a lot of care due to their age and condition. They may have sat empty for several years and suffered damage from a lack of maintenance.
Also if they're cheap postwar construction, they may not be very earthquake safe. If they're older traditional architecture, they're probably ok but still probably need a lot of TLC.
The uk government has decided to import millions of people and hope that it creates good outcomes. So far it’s difficult to find a measure that has improved.
It’s because the UK is very new at it compared to say the US and Canada. IMO it’s still likely better than losing your adult working population though. We’ll see how the UK fares compared to Germany in the coming years
