You can't take money with you when you die.

If someone tells you no or you try and fail at something, life actually just continues on from that point, and you can try other things

The power in your punch comes from your legs.

That GoodWill and Autism Speaks are not valid as charities/nonprofits.

Move the decimal point one number to the left. That's 10% of the original number. Double that number to get 20% of the original number.

Now you have your tip.

Take the following with a big spoon of salt, since I am not a lawyer. Those are the results of interest and some reading on that topic.

Insulting someone is illegal in Germany (§ 185 StGB). You can get financial penalties and in worst cases some jailtime. However, if you insult someone back immediately, those can cancel each other out and the judge can exempt both of you or one of you from punishment (§ 199 StGB). Furthermore, since it is considered a crime, you could, theoretically, detain the culprit in case they want to flee until you are able to get some identification on them, i.e., see their ID card, or until someone like the police arrives (§ 127 StPO). Also this is not okay if you already know the person or have easy means to determine their ID (e.g., your neighbour or someone working at a facility you visit). In all cases the proportionality of your actions are important. (Beating someone senseless just to detain them, because they called you an avocado in a mean way is certainly not okay. This might be slightly different however, if the person in question commited a violent crime and is still acting violently.)

Since we live in the digital age, I think it would be awesome if everyone knew a little bit of python and how you can automate boring tasks using it. Well doesn't have to only be python but it would be cool if something like it was added to school systems

Evolution was largely theorized and understood down to the nuance that each parent contributed to a 'doubled seed' for trait inheritance and that trait success depended on survival of the fittest well before Jesus was even born.

(In fact, the author who wrote the only surviving book detailing this used the specific language of calling failed biological reproduction as "seed falling by the wayside of a path" around 80 years before the parable of the sower described how seed that fell by the wayside of the path didn't reproduce but that which found fertile soil produced more and more - a parable unanimously spoken in public in canon but provided a secret explanation thereafter and one believed by 'heretics' to have been referring to seeds described extremely similar to how Leucretius described his "seeds of things" in De Rerum Natura, the aforementioned book. Also, in the extra-canonical scripture this 'heretical' group followed, the parable of the sower immediately followed a couplet of sayings about how no matter if lion ate man or man ate lion that man was inevitable and how the human being was like a large fish selected from many small fish in the sea.)

If you're unsure which side of a path to be on especially with shared paths default to the national driving side. Bonus if you hear a bike bell don't jump to a side or call your dog into their path just keep doing what your doing

Fodmaps are sugars and sugar alcohols that many people struggle to process well. Lactose intolerance is commonly known but there are lots of others. Wheat fructans are in most gluten containing foods and may be why some people find gluten free diets beneficial even if not coeliac.

Never heard of life traps. I googled it and it seems like marketing speak for psychological issues to deal with in therapy. Is that it means to you or something else?

Jazz was the most popular music during the 1st half of the XX century. It basically was what hip-hop is today, or rock was to the second half of the XX century.

All salespeople in every shop have negotiation brackets (well perhaps except grocery supermarkets) for most products and are willing to go down on the price if that may encourage you to buy. The negotiation wiggle space is normally included in the price and yeah, they do know you're uncomfortable haggling and will go out of their way to not discourage you from purchase.

Also, but this is something I only heard from a colleague, you can negotiate up to 40% off if you convince them to purchase the product using their employee discount (so bulk price) and split the difference off the record.
