Why did Hilda choose to remain a prostitute?

It seems weird to me she would choose to do so after realizing Malthus is the man from the prophecy. He even tells her in the church that she’s a hypocrite because she told him she loves him but kept doing what she does. Her behavior would make sense if that was her only source of income, but she already made plenty of money at that point and I think she even had other savings/properties even without what she saved from prostitution. She could have easily stopped and started studying or looking for a different job.

I’ve heard that she was just following the prophecy, but this just seems so unrealistic. The kind of woman who does that kind of job either likes it or does it because she has to. Considering she was able to just stop one day, the first one can’t be completely true for her and we know the 2nd one was no longer that true either considering she had enough money and already met the man she wanted. She could have simply stopped to show Malthus she means it. What are your thoughts?

Which on of these pains would you rather experience given the amount of pay and time?

You will only experience the pain, not the injury that comes with it. If the degree of the condition is not specified it is random. For example: acute hernia pain could be tolerable or the worst possible. Itchy skin could be either very itchy or mild.

Dacă nu vă place cultura nunților cel mai bun protest e să nu mergeți la ele

Tot observ postări de genul unde oamenii se plâng ca au lăsat o sumă și au primit reproș urmate de comentarii de la oameni care zic ca ei lasă mult mai puțin, nici cat să acopere cheltuielile pe motiv ca “nu ar trebui să se aștepte”. De acord, nunțile nu ar trebui să fie o industrie. Totuși asta e cultura noastră, în momentul în care alegeți să participați și să nu anunțat ca nu vreți să vă conformați normei tot ce veți obține cel mai probabil e să vă stricați relația cu mirii. Aia de la restaurant, aia de la decor, trupa și restul își vor primi în continuare banii. Din perspectiva lor nu s-a schimbat nimic și vor încerca în continuare să scoată bani cât mai mulți din evenimente. Iar mirii nu mai fac alta nuntă ca se știe pe viitor.

În schimb dacă tot mai multă lume refuză nunțile vor scădea automat în dimensiune, vor fi mai puține fițe și probabil vor scădea și prețurile. Nu vă mai fie frică să ziceți “nu”. Cel mai bun mod de a nu susține o industrie e să nu investiți nimic în ea.

Vouă vă place ce faceți?

Tot văd postări unde se plânge lumea de angajări, de salarii, de AI. Stau și mă întreb dacă există o corelație între satisfacția job-ului și șansele să fii dat la o parte sau dificultatea de a găsi alt loc de muncă. Mi se pare ca e important să ne întrebăm unele lucruri sa înțelegem mai bine ce se întâmplă acum pe piață. Au recrutorii așteptări prea mari sau a scăzut și starea de spirit a angajaților?

Așa ca va intreb: va place ceea ce faceți sau făceați la ultimul loc de muncă? Dacă nu, de ce? E munca in sine problema, firma sau ambele? Sunteți angajați în momentul de față? Dacă nu, de cât timp căutați? Va simțit motivați să mai lucrați în domeniu? Dacă nu, ce credeți ca v-a adus în acest punct?

Câți bani aveți strânși pentru zile grele?

Which faces do you think are universally beautiful?(would be considered pretty to some extent in most places and time periods)

This doesn’t mean they’re the most beautiful everywhere, but that they’re not polarizing and most people would think they look good.

M-am săturat de IT, ce domenii credeți ca sunt mai stabile?

Da știu, sunt a 1000-a persoană care se plânge pe grupul ăsta ca găsește greu de muncă, ca nu mai sunt salariile ce erau și tot așa. Eu de când m-am întors din concediu săptămâna asta mi-a venit de 2x să îmi dau demisia. Mă abțin doar pentru ca si salariul ăla amărât plătește facturile. Așa ca va rog sa spuneți dacă știți. Ce domenii credeți ca vor fi OK pe termen lung?

Sometimes I think people forget that there are more reasons to skip a line than being pregnant

In my country there’s a law that gives pregnant women and parents with small children priority when there’s waiting involved.

Normally I don’t have a big problem with it. However, last week I had to do some blood tests the day before my wedding. I had an appointment, I was supposed to go in between 8:20-8:30. There was a long line of at least 10 people when I got there. The nurses would regularly ask if anyone is pregnant. But you know what they didn’t ask? If anyone has medication to take at a certain time (I did). It was around 9:10 when 2 pregnant women showed up and skipped the line. At that point I was starting to become stressed about my medication(I had one to take at around 10 and another one before that which is more flexible in timing but needs to be taken on an empty stomach). After I got in there they didn’t keep an eye on me for long enough and as I was stressed I didn’t apply pressure properly and my blood started spilling out of the bandage and I had to go back.

I’m not mad at the pregnant women but at the clinic which should take into account that when there are such long delays they need to take more things into account than just pregnancy.

AI haters are getting annoying

That's it, I've had enough. I've just seen a content creator that creates jewelry get hate because a client used AI to show them the engagement ring design. "AI is bad for the environment." Oh really? And you think if someone doesn't get the product right from the start they're not going to waste resources untill they get to the result the client wanted? I used AI for a lot of stuff I requested to be made from scratch because as a client I don't know how to explain in technical terms and it's difficult to visualize. Sometimes I think something might look good, but when I see everything put together in an image it doesn't. I wasted a lot less time showing them an AI generated design of what I wanted.

AI also helped me understand things about my health which doctors missed. I'm aware everything has to be double checked, but not all doctors are equally good, they're not always up to date with new research and even if they are they sometimes miss stuff or don't explain properly.(because they often don't have the time for each patient)

AI is a tool, it's not good at everything and it shouldn't be used for everything, but as each tool it will be useful if you learn how and when to use it.
