What's a heck? I've only ever seen it used to mean hell.

Well, I'd argue that if enough people complain to the person and they in turn complain to their boss, something might change.

That's how I've learned to get my boss to improve stuff around the workplace. Whenever I notice something that can be improved I don't say "I think we should do x". I say "clients have been complaining about this, we should do x." He's a lot more receptive when I say that.

It might depend from person to person? I agree with you, tho. That's also my preferred method.

However, if the stuff you're reading is fairly dense and not that well organized, you're gonna have a harder time than watching a well written educational video or lecture and taking notes along the way.

I don't believe that's why he's doing what he's doing. Unless it's like a sick compulsion or something. He's a 78 year old billionaire. Why whore yourself for money when you've already got enough to last you a lifetime? I think the power and whatever is more of a motivator.

Still better than peaky blinders getting actors to speak broken Romanian instead of the actual Romani language in the first season. At least they fixed it later on.

Yeah, that's not what you said at all...

And the ones actually killing Palestinians are the IDF. Even if Biden had decided 4 years ago that the US doesn't need an ally in the middle east and he'd stopped sending money and weapons, nothing would've changed. Israel is strong and rich enough to stand on its own against Palestine.

He's just saying that " Hitler rose to power because Germany needed to make sure Trump wasn't elected. " Is the most illogical thing one without sufficient history knowledge can claim. Unless we're all grossly misunderstanding you. Would you care to explain what exactly you mean?

Not saying getting 10 mil likes is easy, because it's not, but that ratio of likes to views is pretty low in your example. Mr beast has 30 mil likes for a video with 150 mil views, for example. (Which, in all fairness, has a much higher ratio than average, but still)

Yep. Agreed. Unplanned bits are often very memorable. Took shelter in a random café in Vienna and had amazing cakes. My favourite memory from that trip, I think.

Have a broad plan, but don't fuss about sticking to it too much.

Except the pictures bit. There I disagree.I like taking pictures of touristy stuff and such. Because It'll help me remember the way I experienced the place. And pictures of stuff in museums because it'll help me remember what I enjoyed most. I don't wanna have to look up a list of all the expositions later on in order to find something I wanna review or share with someone.

Yeah, but then we'd have to say onety, twoty, threety and fivety as well. Just take it as its own word rather than four+ty and it'll make more sense, I think.

Others have said it, but I'll stress it some more. Don't overplan. Whenever I go somewhere I make a list of all the places I wanna go to and I only schedule one place/day. Two at most if they're small things. But don't plan a museum in the morning and then a second place/museum in the afternoon, for example. You'll never make it to the second place. Or you will but you'll be too tired to enjoy it.

1-2 places/day are enough. Trying to cram too much stuff into a day will ruin your trip, really.

And that's not even all of it. That whole Wikipedia page is filled with crimes. Both his and his parents'. Insane
