Hello all!

Looking to get into Haskell for self-improvement since I do not have a lot of experience in functional programming (and to keep my skills sharp outside of AI usage).
I am not very imaginative when it comes to coming up with new hobby projects. I would prefer something guided but I also want to become proficient at it (I also cannot pay attention to a video to save my life).

The "Chat Control" proposal would legalise scanning of all private digital communications, including encrypted messages and photos.

To me, the EU has become a serious joke and I hope we can take this as an example not to follow at any point in the future.

Hello all,

Guess this is a rant and a call for tips. My flat is being renovated early next year so I’m being kicked out and I’ve been on the hunt since November of last year. I have a B-permit and have a salary of a bit over 120k.

And I just can’t get a damned flat. I thought that I could easily get a singles flat with my salary but each viewing has about 70+ applicants and I assume that my B-permit makes them toss mine out because I make sure to apply immediately.

Then there are the more expensive ones, which are larger and it seems that by default they’ll prefer couples/families over a single guy.

So I’ve been looking outside of Zürich and I see a grand total of about 10 listings anywhere that has an under 1 hour commute to my workplace. Is this unavoidable? I’ve even been told to lie in my application and put in that I’m Swiss and later say “oops, I messed up” which I feel uncomfortable doing.

I’m just frustrated. Have a nice day everyone.

Hey, just wanna hear what your favorite products are and why.

Mine are Strongcreem and Claymor by Ivor because Strongcreem seems to have the perfect natural shine and makes my hair look healthy. It also has great hold l. I do notice that buildup happens quickly for me when using it though. Claymore I like when my hair or short. Too may flyaways otherwise.

My theory is that time, not money, is the primary reason for the demographic collapse of the Western world. And I don’t see much effort going into addressing this. But then again, I have no numbers to show for it.

What I keep hearing from talking to members of previous generations is “there was time” and “life moved more slowly” and “there was less stress”. So here goes my theory.

Ever since women joined the general workforce, working hours should have been cut by half for everyone. Now there was no longer a primary provider or a primary housekeeper. Both parties get home from work, already tired, to do laundry, cook, pay the bills, read the mail, clean, and maybe study for career progression. At the end of all this, a full-time worker gets to enjoy… maybe 2 hours of free time on a good day?

Urban overcrowding only exacerbates the problem. It baffles me that working hours have not at least been reduced to 6 just to account for commute considering that the vast majority of jobs are held in overcrowded cities.

Now, I do of course think that money also plays a big role — given that rent alone takes a huge cut of people’s paychecks — but a smaller one than time.

I’ve read great things about it and am wondering how it performs on fine hair. Is it too heavy or shiny?
