What single feature or addition would you like to see on musing?
Personally I would love to see comments from the curation team as to why they thought certain answers were good and deserved the upvote they got.
Were they humourous and made the team laugh? Was it informative but not dry and academic? Did it simply touch them and make them feel happy or sad after reading?
A lot more work on the already over-burdened team I know, but man it would be great to know their thoughts

As already suggested on Discord I would love to see an option to debate over specific, important questions. Currently, the questions asked on Musing usually get around 2-3 answers each which is good but, nowhere near ideal if we truly want to get the best possible answers and a good factual evidence based debate going on. Appart from that, the main issue I see with Musing is that questions are very short-lived and the motivation to answer them quickly withers away when the Musing hands out the upvotes to the best answers.
The way I envisioned the debate function to work is that each week curators select 10 of the best questions and present them in the debate section. Users then have a full week to debate over the questions and try to bring up some worthy claims in an attempt to truly answer them in the best way possible. After a week, curators decide which answers brought the most value to the debate and upvote them accordingly.
This way, the best questions would last much longer, they would get much more constructive answers and users wouldn't lose motivation to try to answer them throughout the week. The answers would be of much better quality as users would have more time to think about them and in end, it would bring about a much needed change of dynamic to our current Q/A's

I think it would be beneficial for them to have some way to weed out some of the duplicate questions that are getting posted. For example they might have to institute some form of white-listing like some other services have to cut down on some of the abuse that is starting to take shape on musing.io. I think it is a great service and a great idea. It has so much potential to be helpful to so many people.
I understand it is probably hard to determine somethings worth. A question that may seem trivial to one person might be super beneficial to another. Without having to get their hands too dirty though, there should be a way to get rid of some of the bloat and fluff that is showing up on the main page.

The one feature I would really like to see in Musing.io is the ability to sort and filter questions.
At the moment, it's still easy to navigate the questions based on when they were posted, but as the platform grows, it's going to need a better way for users to navigate these questions. So, improving the way that users can sort and filter questions can really help improve the platform's usability.
For example, I would like to be able to filter out answered questions, so I can only see the unanswered ones right away. Or sort questions using other criteria aside from tags. For example, view questions posted during a certain time period, in case I'm looking for a specific question.

I think it should be possible to flag questions or answers that are spam.
To me it seems like a lot of people are spaming questions here just becaus they hope to get upvotes.
Also I already requested this feature a few weeks ago: When creating a new question musing should show you a selection of similar questions. Maybe you will already find a answer there so you don't have to publish a dublicated question. StackOverflow for example does the same.

I would definitely want musing to have lots of new features. I personally am a big fan of statistics. If musing can come up with good stats to display how many questions people have asked and how many answers people have made along with total earnings from musing etc can really be a good addition to the platform.
People easily get attracted to the stats. The top musers will also be a good addition. People will then be able to compete with other musers in asking and posting answers.
I personally feel there are lots of development opportunities for musing to become a good competitor for Quora. The UI can also be made a little more fancier than it is now.

One thing I really love about Musing is its minimalistic and simplistic UI and I hope that they won't overdo the future changes they are planning for the site as I am pretty much content about it at the moment.
I however would like to see Musing have an option for a "Night-Mode" or dark-theme. As someone who has somewhat a sensitive eyes, the white background on Musing.io is sometimes just too bright.
And if you consider these a feature, it really would be good if they can release a mobile app before the year ends. A mobile app with a "night-mode" feature would be more than perfect. :)

I would like to see plagiarism disappear. I see lots of copied and pasted answers all over and not being written by the person themselves. Surely that is only fair and the only way to improve it. You shouldn't be able to answer and leave a link to an extra source either.

Some form of spam-reduction. As in: people who post too many (similar) questions on a (short) period of time. Similar questions that are asked over and over again, with only slightly different wording. That kind of stuff.
Besides that, I would like a “similar questions” section when you’ve answered a question (or viewed one).

Hi @ancientknowled3
I have often wondered myself how the team judges "value" in a question or answer. I'm certainly not complaining though, musing is very generous with rewards, and IMO use their delegation for all the right reasons! It would be nice to see a little feedback in the comments from them, but I am sure they are heavily taxed with development and manually curating, so of course I am understanding in this aspect!
A feature I would really love to see, is a dark mode. The white background bothers my eyes, and I find I need to take breaks from musing because of the intensity. Other than that, I don't have any complaints, the platform is clean, and easy to use. No need to make things complicated.

Have you ever cried in your dream?
I have noticed few times where I have cried in my dreams. Morning after I wake up, if I think about it, it can be kind of silly or awkward to imagine what happened in the dream. Have you ever experienced anything similar like crying over something in your dream?

Yes I have.
It happens, not often, not a lot, but sometimes. Sometimes I dream very vividly that something terrible happens to my loved ones, like my children or my wife. When I dream such a dream, I sometimes I cry. Sometimes I wake up crying, during my dream, and sometimes I wake up, remember my dream and how real it was, and start crying then.

Yes I have experienced it so many times. I dream about something bad happening to someone dear to me and I then cry so bitterly and wake up crying. Most times when I wake up crying, the dream feels so real and I 'remember vividly what happened.
Crying in a dream is an expression of negative emotion. It is an overwhelming but it doesn't really mean a bad thing happened. It could be a release of negative emotions held back or a cry of joy for relief. I really don't think it's such a bad thing but if it is, you can always pray about it.

Never.
Even though I have dreamt about some crazy and heartbreaking situations like witnessing my syster and mother die from a car accident I caused yet, I haven't cried in that nor, any other shocking or sad dream. Which is streange, and I must admit I have never thought about it before. Hmmm..... Is something wrong with me? I don't know.
I'm quite emotional and emphatetic irl so, I'm unsure of why I can't cry in my dreams.

Yeah of course, I cried in my dreams suddenly when I wake up tears will be there in my eyes. Most of the time those heartbreaking situation will be the exam results and going late for exam. I don't really think I will cry for going late for exams but in dreams its very hearbreaking sometimes I even wakeup in fear and realise a heavenly feel like thank god im not a student anymore and I don't have exam tomorrow. Then those tears will become happy tears.

How does musing profit?
Does musing profits from the service it provides and if so how
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
To understand how musing would earn a profit you have to look at the bigger picture of the distant future.
For now, Musing has a delegation which it uses to upvote posts and earn Curation rewards.
In future when SMTS are launched Musing could launch its own tokens or coins to gather more capital. They could even go ahead with receiving funds from various venture Capitalists who are always on the lookout for good,promising and disruptive projects.
But all of the above steps are simply capital formation its not revenue generation. For any project to earn Profit it has to generate revenue and generating revenue is an easy task when you have traffic on your site. Advertisers are always on the lookout to place their ads on the most visited sites.
The token/coin could be used as prerequisite condition for an Advertisement to be displayed. That is, a certain amount of the token/coin would be mandatory for an advertising company to hold, to display its Advertisement, in addition to some fiat payment that would be needed. This would provide a use for the native tokens of musing and also generate revenue in fiat, which is necessary as well.
But at the end, this is all approximation,speculation and imagination, nobody apart from the designer & owner of musing knows how he plans to generate revenue.

Musing makes profit from curation rewards on upvoting questions and answers. Musing has a large delegation and this is the only way they can make any income. Over a period of time this can be very fruitful and their account should grow considerably.

I don't think they have any beneficiary on either questions or answers at the moment, but surely they could add that to get a lot of money. However, they also have a huge delegation, so they likely earn a lot of Steem Power from curation rewards alone. You can see that they earned 150 Steem Power in the last week alone: https://steemit.com/@musing/curation-rewards.

Absolutely, if I loved them.
Why do people feel such a need for catagorisation of others though, or even of themselves?
I think all humans have the capability of loving a fellow human no matter their gender identity, if that happened to be someone who identified themselves as transgender, no matter. Love is love and its no one elses business.
Lets all dump the boxes though, see humans as just that, humans and simply usenour names as identifiers. This would create a much more tolerant and non judgemental world I feel, without religious or cultural prejudices.

Why should I in my right senses consider marrying a transgender person? That will really be very stupid of me. Why should I marry someone that wasn't proud of the way he or she was created? Why settle for fake or artificial when you can have the real thing? Marrying a transgender will be very very stupid of me. I can't even imagine it.

What proof do you have to show that there is a God?
> Show me pics or it didn’t happen.
The problem with this question is that it departs from the angle that there must be a God. Yet, an analytical approach to the problem would have to start from the angle that the existence of such, since not tangible nor visible, must first be proven.

They’re actually more related than you make it sound.
If there is no proof of the existence of a God, then there is no need to prove that a God doesn’t exist. It’s rather logic, isn’t it.
Maybe you best ask the question “What is the burden of proof”.

You cannot prove that something not exist. In order to prove something inexistence you have to look every where in the world and check it. Even that is not enough because that could be outside of world too.
However, there could be proofs for existence. There could be questioning and connecting dots and deducing a result from all.
Meaning of existence is not physical thing and you cannot use this path. There are things we do not see, but we know that they exist. Even you could explain this like technology. There are some living microorganisms seen vis microscope. Think about there is no microscope and technology is not in the level of today. How could you prove there is microorganisms?
In my opinion there is no way to prove inexistence.

There are two words in your question that do not go together: "proof" and "belief". Either you believe in something - then you don't need a proof. Or if something is proofed - what does it matter whether someone believes in it or not?

Proof and belief goes together. The reason you support an idea can be your proof for holding on to that idea. Belief is not something that's abstract. It stems from something that known. So what's your reason(proof) that there's no God if you believe that their is no God

Do you think that music can affect ones behavior? If yes what gendres do you think have the most influence?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Music can definitely affect a person's behaviour. That's why alot of people become happy or sad when they listen to different songs.
The beat, the lyrics and the tempo can have a drastic effect on a person's behaviour, and this explains why people who listen to and enjoyhard metal rock are usually more rascally than people who listen to something as calm as classical music who are generally more gentle in nature.
Music has a way of spurring emotions in people, According to the syncproject, listening to music has a relationship with the dopaminergic pathways and this induces either positive or negative effects on humans.
People that read with music are an example of how music can affect human behaviour. Some people can't study without listening to music and that's because it boosts their cognitive abilities.
As far as what genres have the most influence, I'd say
1. Classical: Helps calm people down
2. Hard metal rock: Makes people more erratic
3. Jazz: This is similar to classical music and will also calm you down
4. Rap/hip hop: I once heard that listening to rap can help fight depression especially when the lyrics are relatable
5. Pop: Well we all agree that pop music basically makes everyone happy.
In my opinion, I believe the above genres have the most influence on people's behaviours.

All genres of music can influence a person's behavior. Music is made up of words, rythm, beats, etc. So it can easily penetrate a person's mind and influence his/her behavior than ordinary spoken words. Music is very powerful and we all should be very choosy with the type of music we listen to because music can influence our thoughts and behavior

Why do most find it easier to approach averagely looking ladies than the pretty ones?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Cause majority of men are going through life with false beliefs. We are that "new generation", the one that was heavily impacted through the growing PORN industry. I'd say even brainwashed & manipulated...
So currently, instead of searching for the right values & our true "SOULMATE", someone who our energy instantly clicks with & we know that's the right person for us. Everyone go through life objectifying others, women objectify men - men objectify women (even more). Nowadays you have majority of men just snipping women in terms of looking at their butt, breast etc
And that's a huge illusion... just a manipulation to divert our attention in the wrong path, as all those physical parts are nothing but parts of our bodies. Our bodies we pilot currently in this reality, but they won't be here forever. After they die, they'll slowly transition to dust & continue the endless natural circle of birth & death
What will be left after that? Only the energy that we are... Divine spark. Our souls & higher selves that has nothing to do with physical suits, they are just piloting them
Still, you have majority of population wandering through life looking at the same "physical suits" & deciding "who is right for them" and "who is not". That's a huge illusion, that's why you have so many dysfunctional marriages & relationships today, cause people found each other based on wrong values, beliefs - while they still didn't find their true selves
That's the same reason why men find it harder to approach beautiful women, cause they've been programmed to think beautiful women somehow worth more, that beautiful women are "something they should aim for". But in reality, looks are nothing... only thing that truly matters is the energy connection, you will find or you won't.
If you continue searching for women based on looks everything will revolve around casual sex & guess what, first thing after ejaculating you'll realize the emptiness, lack of energy you have & you'll most likely continue wandering in your realities looking for other women to have intercourse with
Intercourse that will bring you nothing but push further in illusion, and divide from your very self

It's inferiority complex. Most guys who would not approach a lady because she's very beautiful have small minds. By this, I mean they evaluate themselves to be too small for these sorts of ladies.
The beautiful ladies, beautiful as they are will still get married someday. If you even look at it, most times, the guys they end up with aren't the most handsome of guys but simply those who that went forth what they want.
Also, some guys may think that going out with beautiful girls will require them to spend a lot of money , like having to buy cosmetics, take them shopping and so on. It's not always the case. Beautiful ladies are humans too and not every one of them want a guy whose a money bank.
I have seen a case like that in the past. There was this guy who could not, or rather, would not approach this lady because he thought he wasn't in her class. The lady liked him but being a lady didn't want to come out plain to show her feelings. The guy kept saying admiringly her from afar but never talked.
Then, there was this other guy which came to unto the scene. He saw thus girl and developed feelings forever her. He had the courage to share his feelings with her. The girl didn't accept at first because she wanted to give the other guy a chance to if he came around. However, the other guy never owned up and she had today give in to the second guy's pressure. She later married in him even though it was the first guy she preferred.
That's why you hear people's saying 'Go fit what you want'. Even if you get a rejection, at least you know you made a move.

Most guys find it easier to approach average looking ladies than the drop dead gorgeous ladies. Like @prinsj and @runicar has said, most have do not have the self confidence to approach the gorgeous ladies because they have this belief that they can't be lonely and must have a lot of male fans. They also have this belief that with a gorgeous lady there is a high possibility of being turned down maybe because they believe that they are so expensive and they the guys may not have what it takes financial and physical outlook to approach the lady.
On the other hand, they believe the average looking lady won't be too choosy as she's average and may not have self confidence and so they believe it is lot easier approaching such a lady. They also believe that an average beautiful woman will not have many male fans.
What they do not know is that this is a grave misconception. As a lady, I know that most gorgeous ladies are single and lonely and the average beautiful ladies have more male fans.
#### Guys never be afraid to approach a gorgeous lady. It is all about your manner of approach, self confidence and the right words.

Average looking ladies are more friendly and welcoming to approach than the very beautiful ones. The very beautiful ones allow their beauty to get into their heads sometimes and may be very snobbish to those trying to get their attention that they don't fancy. But the average looking babe may still be polite even if she doesn't fancy you.

Because guys are intimidated by beatiful looking women. Why? They are scared of getting turned down. Because of their low self-confidence they automatically conclude that they aren't good enough for them. Making them feel bad, unworthy and unlikely to engage in conversation, or approach them.
This mentality is so stupid that its laughable
I think like that myself and Ican't help it so I know where you and the rest of the guys feeling this way are comming from. But let me tell you that its the worst thing one can do to himself. While out partying I was approached by woman in her 40's. She was a bomb. A supermodel. And she wanted me!
After that day I realized that there is nothing to be shy off or to feel intimidated by beautiful women.You are just diminishing your chances of hooking up with them. You could be with a supermodel but you rather approach the ugly chicks because they are the only ones who have lower self-esteem than you making them easily approachable. Thus, you less scared to talk to them as you feel like you got a better chance. Big mistake!
I'll repeat this again. You could be dating a supermodel!
Don't be scared. Give yourself a chance.

It's all about the approacher's confidence. Most guys think that good looking ladies always get a lot of attention from guys and as a result, they will be very proud and picky. They prefer to go for the average looking lady because to them, the average looking lady don't have the sort of attention the good looking ladies get from guys and would be more likely to give them a positive response than the good looking ladies. But that's not always the case in reality. Most good looking ladies don't have the sort of attention that guys assume they have. If you like a lady, approach her and lnvite her for a date regardless of how she looks. She's just a lady

Are any health problems associated with getting a tattoo on one's body?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Yes there are a couple of things that could go wrong but, most of them can be avoided if the tattoo is done by a professional. The biggest point of concern of many is the actual needles used by the tattoo gun. They can, if reused, cause blood carried diseases like STDs. To prevent them, be sure you ask the tattoo master to see him open a new package of needles place them in the tattoo gun before touching you with it. That's what I did to calm my nerves before making my first one.
Most other problems associated with getting a tattoo come to be either by lack of skill by the tattoo master, or lack of care by the person who got the tattoo but some are generally present and should be considered before getting a tattoo done. To prevent them, do your research and find a good, licenced professional to make your tattoo and ask him/her how to propperly take care of your tattoo when it's finished.
The risks of getting a tattoo include:

Yes there are!!! Numerous ones in fact. Tattoos are designs or images made on the skin. Most people think that this is done by simply drawing the image on the skin. They feel that that's what the tattoo machine does. What they don't know is that there are tiny needles in the machine that puncture the topmost layer of skin and deposit droplets of ink under it. So what could go wrong with that, you might ask. Well
1) the ink used in making tattoos can cause allergic reactions. Especially the red, yellow green and blue ink. And while it might not occur immediately, it can still occur years after you've gotten your tats.
2) after getting the tattoo, your skin is a bit raw and open from the numerous punctures caused by the tiny needles I mentioned earlier. This leaves that part of your skin open to infection for a while.
3) sometimes, getting tattoos doesn't go so well. It can lead to an inflammation of the tattooed area called granuloma. Or it can lead to keloids which is when scar tissue overgrows and becomes very large.
4) imagine getting a tattoo and then a few days later, you fall sick and are diagnosed with an STD. It's very possible if the tattoo machine was used on someone with an STD before you and it injured the person. The tiny amount of blood can be on the machine until its used on you and poof, you have an STD.
If you were planning on getting a tattoo, I hope this helps you realize whether it's truly worth it. I'm not against tattoos but I would just like it if everyone knew the things that could go wrong.
I hope it helps

Yes there are!! Tattoos are a great form of self expression, but the risks that come with it aren't to be joked with. Here are some of the health risks and problems that come with getting tattoos
1. Possible allergic reaction: People may be allergic to the ink used on their skin and the ensuing allergic reaction may take years before it even shows up and it will come up in the form of a rash in the affected area.
2. Skin infections: Tattoos can be gateways for bacteria and harmful microbes to enter the body, especially when you just got it. You could be at risk of getting diseases like staphylococcus or even tuberculosis.
3. Keloid formation: keloids are overgrown scar tissue and seeing as tattoos are basically sort of "artistic injuries", your entire tattoo could become a huge keloid.
4. Disease contraction: If an unsterilised needle is used, then you run a risk of contacting diseases like HIV, hepatitis B and C and tetanus.
5. Swelling of the tattoo site: The tattoo site could experience some serious inflammation especially when the tattoo is healing and some people have even been know to experience a burning sensation on the tattoo area.
Overall, I don't think getting a tattoo is a good idea, but if want to get one, then at least be sure that you reduce the risk of having any of the above complications.

Although it's said getting a tattoo might cause possible allergic reactions, luckily I didn't feel anything when I got mine, of course if you are getting a big one, might be different situation.
Don't think tattoos can cause much health problems, off topic, you might have some problems if going to Japanese onsens. I think many onsens won't allow people with large sized tattoos.

Why old people are so conservative about tattoos?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Because people like nothing more than to judge others based on superficial things such as tattoos to uplift themselves and build up their ego. Especially old people. It's like they have nothing better to do in life than to look down on other people to increase their already big enough ego. That's also exactly why people insult and swear at each other.
Its exactly this ego building, which is the driving force behind most of the problems we have amongst each other nowadays and why some people just can't stand one another. Their egos are conflicting. Battling. Creating a repelling force that is pushing them far away from one another. The only outcome of such situation can be either splitting paths or battling it out until one gives up.
People need to learn to control themselves and kill the ego, or at least realize when it's taking over common sense and be able to ignore it. Because, only when not under the influence of the ego, is one able to react to a situation propperly. When they can't do it though, only negativity can come out. And that's why our world is so messed up today.
Our ego is taking over and we can not control it so, we react irrationally and negatively.

When I grew up and yes I am from the older generation it was only sailors who had tattoos. The anchor on the arm a bit lie Popeye lol.
It was frowned upon and seen as low class and still to this day it is to a point. I know plenty of companies who will not hire a person with a tattoo that is visible. I am the same if it is discreet that is fine but if you have a sleeve tattoo or some on the hand etc I wouldn't hire them either.
If it can be hidden by clothing then that is fine as you represent a company and could offend people. That is the reality of the business world. It is fashionable now but it changes and who says in 5 years time it won't be seen as lower class again.

Well,let's say things are changing very fast and people perspective about things also changes.
Well the older generation are very conservative when it comes to tattoo because during their time tattoo is not as rampant as it is now and in their time people who drew tattoo are not seen as responsible people, they are seen as hoodlums and nuisance.
But things have changed and now tattoo are everywhere, artist and models, football stars all drew tattoo so the perspective young people have about tattoo is different compared to the older generation.

Well, basically, because tattoos are a cultural thing. And culture changes. And now, due to the internet and cheaper and easier access to traveling, our own cultures changes faster than ever.
Tattoos have been normal in certain cultures for ages, but were considered “not done” in our western culture until a few years ago. It was something that was only done by drug addicts, prison inmates, and rock and roll life wasters.
Luckily all this has changed, and a lot of people are now having a tattoo as a reminder of a specific period in their lives.

They are trying to reduce the plea for financial assistance from family members. Some family members will start telling you how to spend your money once they know how much you earn. You can hardly turn down the financial plea of assistance from your family members once they know how much you earn. Some would even help you calculate how much you should have left from your last check. It's good to help family members in need mostly when the need is an important one, but one also has to be able to save for the future. so keeping your earning a secret is the way to go

Why is there such a disparity between the mindsets of members of generation X and the millennials.?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Well aside from the obvious fact that the two generations where born in two very different time periods ( 1960s to mid 1980s for Gen X and 1980s to mid 1990s for Gen Y), the two generations have some pretty different views on life, love, career and just about everything else. Generation X are the the more focused of the two, with their aggressive and energetic approach towards their careers they surged to the top and stayed there. They're great with working with each other and are a generally hard working generation.
Generation Y on the other hand or should I say the millennials are a different thing entirely, they prioritize having fun over alot of things, they are the more selfish generation and the ones that believe that "whatever they do must make a difference". They are also the impatient generation, the ones that are high risk and high reward kind of people.
As far as their mindsets go, what makes them so different stems from the availability and unavailability of technology like ssmartphones and personal computers. Generation X are more hardworking and believe that you should work for what you want, bit Gen Y are more laid back and will simply find a work around to working hard. Social media has really encouraged the trends amongst millennials ranging for their liberal minded beliefs to their open mindedness.
I believe that the core difference in their mindsets stems from their upbringing. Generation X members where raised by parents who'd seen war and probably tried to instill discipline as much as they could, but the millennials are a different thing entirely, they're greedy and overly money hungery. They were most probably raised by Generation X parents who aren't usually as strict as the parents of gen X.

Who do you think is affected the most whenever a marriage goes through a divorce (dad, mum or kids)?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Regarding your question, most people will say that the kids are those getting affected the most in a divorce but, that is not entirely true. There are a lot of variables at play that we're not even aware of; thus, we will never be able to acquire a general answer and not even a specific one.
But, let me develop my answer a little bit.
Firstly, you can look at the short-term effects of a divorce, and suppose who are the people affected the most, and often those are the kids since they are not ready for such a change. But, you never know how much that divorce impacted the way their life was going to develop.
What I mean by that is that some people get influenced to take a particular road as the result of a cause that they are not even aware of. A divorce might take certain people off a specific path, and end up saving their lives. As I said, there are a lot of things at play; a divorce might be beneficial for some, and catastrophic for others but, the truth is that there's no way to find a correct answer.
If you want to see how individual choices can influence your future, in a fun way, I advise you to watch the movie "Mr. Nobody" since it will answer all of your questions.

Kids for sure, they have no concept of how or why this occured, they were excluded from the decision itself but can be impacted the most by the decision
If young enough and without enough life experience, a child can actually see themselves as the cause for the divorce which can cause significant trauma or grief throughout the years and actually cause them to have issues in relationships of their own.

I would say the children as they are the product of the marriage and are torn between both parents. They love both of them no matter what happens. children should be considered a priority in a divorce taking their feelings into consideration on every decision.

Clear dreams, tell the difference from normal dreams. Our dream is to become a dream actor instead of being the lead actor. So it's a dream we can manage. It may sound good, but there are damages.
How do I improve my vision
We have to set our clock at 2-3 hours early. When the alarm goes off, we wake up and get out of bed. We need to stay awake for about an hour, we do not do activities to miss our sleep, but if we can read books about being clear, we can meditate. We do not prefer to use stimulants such as coffee and alcohol. After an hour, we reset the alarm after 2 hours, and we plan to fall asleep again.
This technique is a technique used to control REM frequency because the last 2 hours is the most dream time. No matter what technique, you may need to do plenty of exercise.
If we choose to be aware that we are awake in the technique as well as in life, our development is faster when we are asleep and awake. When everyone imagines it, it may be different, so if we want to have a clear dream, we should do our exercises accordingly, knowing the time we dreamed most of our dreams. So we need to know how we sleep.
The sentences you are dreaming about are very important. Which sentence makes you feel happier and better, you have intentions with those sentences

The laws allow banks to issue loans up to a certain multiple over their reserves even if they don't have the money at hand. Banks make money from loans and the interest on that is the profit. A bank has to have a reserve in case anything goes wrong but the law allows them to loan more than they actually have. If everything came crashing down there would be problems.

Could a quantum computer hack Bitcoin?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Bitcoin uses two cryptographic primitives: an elliptic-curve public-key signature for signing transactions, and SHA-256 for mining blocks and proof of work.
The public key signatures (ECSDA) could be broken by a quantum computer. Some level of protection is possible, because Bitcoin addresses are not "bare" public keys; they are hashes of public keys. But once a transaction is signed, the public key is visible and a sufficiently large quantum computer could recover the private key. This private key could be used to withdraw any remaining funds in the account. (Some Bitcoin experts recommend only using any given account once, for this reason and others.)
So, quantum computing would definitely endanger the ability for Bitcoin users to have control over their own accounts. (See the discussion here: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Quantum_computing_and_Bitcoin)
The proof-of-work scheme is not so vulnerable. No quantum algorithm is known that breaks cryptographic hashes to the same degree. The best is Grover's algorithm which reduces a black box search, like a proof-of-work problem, from N queries to sqrt(N) queries. If only one person had a quantum computer, this would be a substantial advantage, and that person could probably use it for double-spending attacks. (Spend on block X, wait several blocks for confirmation, then use your advantage to go back to block X-1 and create a fork that is longer than the one where you spent your bitcoin. Then the new chain would be accepted by the other nodes.) However, if quantum computers are widely available, then the difficulty level of proof-of-work would increase, making this attack no longer feasible.

It's not important at all! Losing your virginity is something that comes with time and age. For some, there are religious aspects that entail waiting until marriage before being intimate with someone else, and some people are not religious, and therefore, it holds no bearing on their decision.

This question is a bit strange because I'm trying to understand if you meant why people feel it is important to lose their virginity or why it is important to lose virginity. Let's suppose the later is what you meant, I have a simple answer for that. If is important for a woman to lose her virginity if she wants to experience motherhood because sexual intercourse is the most common way of becoming pregnant and a virgin can't be pregnant unless the hymen is broken giving the sperm access to the ovary where the eggs are waiting for fertilization. It is also important for people to lose their virginity of they ever want to experience sex and explore their sexuality to the fullest.
If you meant why people feel it is important to lose their virginity well I would say this, losing or keeping ones virginity is actually a choice one has to make. Losing or keeping your virginity doesn't make you the most moral being or the most spoilt person on earth. Most times, people especially teens feel like they need to lose it because everyone is losing it and makes anyone who doesn't lose it feel like you are weird. You ain't weird. It doesn't matter how they make you feel but you ain't and won't be the only virgin in the world.
Some feel it is important to lose it because they see it as a previous gift to be given to that special one. This is a misconception. Your virginity is just a skin covering. It is not a special treasure to be given to anyone for doing something special however it is something once lost can't be regained so you want to be sure you are ready to give if out.
Some feel they need to lose it because they've seen so much sex on tv and internet and can't wait to act it out or practise.
No matter the reason why you feel it is important to lose it, it is important to know that it is not always like we read in novels or watch in ,movies. You may feel good or bad or both during the process. There might be blessing or not and you may end up irritated or excited, most important thing is protect yourself from infection and unwanted pregnancy if you know you are not ready to be a mother.

It's your body and you can do what you want with it
HOWEVER
It's their company and they can set the rules as they want.
If a company feels it is detrimental or hurts their corporate image or branding I can totally agree with them not wanting/allowing tattoes in the workplace. Especially if you are forward facing and deal with customers, clients, representatives etc in a personal contact way,
What is tatooed is also a consideration. No matter how nice or talented someone is do you think someone sporting swastikas and kill all jews tattoed in visible, non covered up areas should be allowed ito work in most companies?
It can often times be simple discrimination, other times, it can be offensive to one group or subculture without even intending to be. It can oft-times be as simple as a company wanting to protect its name or reputation.
Remember, all it takes is one picture or meme or social media post by an employee, even off hours when not representing the company, to bring down the wrath of the public on that company.
Business' today have every right to ensure that their employees abide by that companies morals and ethical code of conduct (assuming all of this is explained prior to hiring of course)
This is why a lot more companies are including moral and ethics clauses, some even spelling out what can or can not be done with personal social media accounts, in their hiring contracts.
I have worked for a company in the past where I was not allowed to wear company logo clothing outside of the work place. They did not want to risk their company name being associated with anything negative. That was their prerogative and was explained to me prior to hiring. I agreed to that condition upon acceptance of their offer.
it's your body to do with as you will, but remember all actions have consequences and not everyone will look upon your actions as favourable.

It depends where there tattoos are. If they are visible then I believe it is up to the employer to let them know what is expected. I can remember the one guy who worked as a technician on the road and had got a tattoo on his legs. He was banned from wearing shorts as it cheapened the image of the company. In some walks of life it is fine but honestly the business world wants professional people who look professional and a tattoo doesn't come across well if it is visible.
Would you honestly hire someone who worked with customers who had tattoos all over his hands and arms. If they are an artist or someone who works in an office environment then that would be different.
If someone was teaching children or someone who had an influence over children then I think it would be wrong to have tattoos in that environment.

Well there are many controversies around the subject of having tattoo. Tattoo is not widely accepted everywhere as there are different cultures, belief and religion all over the world.
There are societies that doesn't have any issues seeing people with tattoos while the most doesn't accept it.
In most companies and organizations,tattoos are not accepted because it might ruin their reputation and give a bad impression about what they stand for,so they won't want to employ staff who decorate their bodies with tattoos in their workplace, most companies will not condone such as it seen as indecent .
In my own opinion,I don't like tattoos and where I come from its not accepted and no companies or organization will take you even if you are talented unless in the music and fashion world.
So imagine a school teacher coming to school with tattoos and wants to teach your children,no parents will want those images to sink into their children,it will even ruin the school reputation for sure.

From how we entertain ourselves to our transportation and even our jobs are dependent on one form of technology or the other. We simply can't do anything anymore without technology.
We also have to take into consideration that the present generation was born into this information age and it's if nothing else the age of technological advancements. Most people were already using iPhones before they were 10 years old.
Half of the world's population is under 30 years of age, and more than half of that are below the age of 18. What this means is that a significant portion of the world was born in or shortly after the year 2000. This implies that at least 25% of the world has only ever known a life with technology, and as such to them there is no life without it.

Technology is a direct booster of human productivity. In order to earn enough to survive in this world, we need to maintain a certain level of productivity. Hence, technology increases our productivity and therefore affects our survivability.

Gross Profit and Net profit are two terms that a entrepreneur must understand very clearly.
Gross Profit = Sale(100) - Purchase(90)
In this case the Gross Profit is 10. But your gross profit is not your net profit, To ascertain your net profit you must deduct all rexpences from your Gross Profit. For example if you employ 2-3 people you must deduct their salary from the Gross Profit, Rent that you, Electricity Bill , Paper, Stationary, Internet Etc, basically every expense that you incur because of running your business must be deducted from your Gross Profit. After deducting your expenses from Gross Profit you arrive at your net profit.
Gross Profit = Sale - Purchase
Net Profit = Gross Profit - Expense.
A smart business man always knows what his net profit is and based upon that he modifies his lifestyle.

Gross is the amount you start with, it has no deductions or anything taken from it.
Net is the amount you end up with in your hand after everything has been taken out.
So for income, in terms of salary for example, your gross might be $1,000
After they take taxes, medical, christmas club, life insurance, pension, etc out, you end up with a NET of $582.23
Stocks/investments/crypto can also have taxes taken from them, broker fees, etc. The same terminology applies
Your Steem has a GROSS value of $1,000 but after you cash out into USD you only receive NET $854.45 for example.
Personally I always thought the terms were backwards.
It's always GROSS how little I end up with and I need a NET to keep as much of the original value as possible.

The absurdity their parents make for money and popularity, the children who can't make their own decisions.
Instead of telling their children that they were valuable, they placed them in such a race and assumed a heavy and ridiculous responsibility.
This affects children's psychology badly.

Are you pleased with the type of posts that appear on the steemit trending pages?
Sometimes the sort of post I see on the steemit trending pages makes me feel like the system is not that fair and don't favours great writer. do you actually feel that way?

I think a lot of users have felt that way for some time and that is why we are seeing some of the enhancements and changes we have over the past couple of months.
Some of the larger accounts that used to take advantage of the trending page and the shortcomings there have left the platform as the price of STEEM has declined. Many of the invested users that are publishing legitimate content have stuck around and are starting to rise to the top.
The implementation of White-lists on many services has helped to cut down on a lot of the spam and junk that was getting added to the STEEM blockchain.
In the end it is going to take a concerted effort from many people to get things to change. If you are new to the platform just stay away from the trending page. I would even stay away from the hot page to some extent.
Until the manual curators can take back the trending page, it is going to remain the black sheep of Steemit that members of the family like to try to forget about.

Good posts at the steemit trending posts are really rare.
The main Problem are voting bots. Anyone who has money can simple pay them and get his post to the trending page.
In my opinion this is a big problem. The first thing you see when visiting steemit.com is the trending page. If users only see bad posts there they might not sign up to steemit. So there are less users on steemit -> lower steem price. Also it is really unfair to authors who invest a lot of time into creating posts but they most of the time don't get to the trending page if they don t pay bots.

No I am not. The trending page should be the best of the best when it comes to steemit posts showing of wonderful talent.
Unfortunately it is for the users who have deep pockets and want to show off sub par work. It gives the wrong impression to new users who think that is the norm being able to achieve big payouts. This in my reason why the retention levels on Steem are so low as people get disillusioned quickly and don't understand why their posts make nothing.
This need to change in the future and maybe call it promoted posts and only allow posts that haven't been influenced by bid bots on to the trending page.

Theres a guy on the trending page every day with the most boring posts imaginable. Take one look and its all bots. It just ruins the whole concept of steemit. I had a post yesterday that @trufflepig upvoted. It told me that my post was in the top ten trending posts on Steemit if bots weren't involved. It was number 6. I felt great about this but felt cheated also that some guy had 243 dollars and I only had 30 dollars from my post which I put alot of effort into. From now on I will avoid the trending page and look at @trufflepigs non bot trending posts. New copycats of Steemit are monitoring accounts to make sure they are not being used for bots. At one stage the same IP address made 700 accounts. They were able to delete them but what chance do we have on Steemit if this is happening!

Trending Page does really act as the one of the most important pillar of Steemit.
As this acts as the front page of Steemit because whenever anybody recommends to look at Steemit the trending page does acts a desperate role as a matter of fact (mostly in case of payouts) and the contents in the T.Page.
While when a new person gets to join in here the thing that goes in mind that I will get there on the trending page with my content. While in reality the trending page has become quite clean compared to the past few months as the vote abuse and the excessive use of bid bot made it quite harsh to go through the trending page and in few posts it was only the money that was acting for those Upvotes.
While as of now it is healing and we are seeing quality posts and many things that are helpful for the community and yeah it will take time to get to its glory but it is a start. Steemit has more way to go and we can act as a support to those contents that deserves to be there in the Trending Page.
Currently not so pleased while in few months back was really holding back looking at T.Page but now there are things that you can learn from.

What will happen if all countries in the world use the same currency?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
If all countries in the world use the same currency, let's say the US Dollar, for example, then individual countries will lose the ability to print their own money and successfully conduct their own fiscal and monetary policies.
The main reason why governments have their own currencies and do not just adopt the currencies of their neighbor is because a country's ability to print and create their own money, and thereby control their money supply, is a crucial aspect of fiscal and monetary policy. Thus, if a country gives up their currency for the US Dollar, for example, they are effectively making themselves dependent on their ability to buy US Dollars in the international financial markets for their money supply, which hampers their ability to make their fiscal and monetary policies.
The ability to control a country's money supply is crucial when making sound and independent fiscal and monetary policies. This is because governments need to be able to manipulate their money supply, either by printing more or less of their currency in order to target inflation, ensure price stability, and guarantee medium and long-term interest rates. Sometimes, government will even print more money in order to finance state spending. Thus, if they start using another country's currency, then they will be dependent on how much of that other country's currency is available in international financial markets, which they have no control over. Unlike if they had an independent currency, which they can print at will.
In this respect, as long as individual countries are independent of each other, it will not be beneficial to have a single currency. Perhaps the only time that the world can have is a single currency is when there is a single world government who will make fiscal and monetary policies for everyone. Otherwise, the idea of a single currency for all the world's governments and economies will just place everyone at a disadvantage and dependent on another government.

Money creation
Money creation is the process by which the money supply of a country, or of an economic or monetary region, is increased. In most modern economies, most of the money supply is in the form of bank deposits. Central banks monitor the amount of money in the economy by measuring the so-called monetary aggregates.

The Olympics for years now have been focusing on summer and winter sport competitions. With the advancement of technology, I really believe that it is now time to add new sports catering to these new advancements.
One of which is the game DOTA2, the latest competition alone garnered a prize pool of over $45million. Meaning that there many who are interested with this game and sport. It will also help make "e-sports" be taken seriously and not just a simple child's play.

I don't think people will ever lose interest in earning money. Some people may, but those are very special cases. In economics, it's said that Human wants are insatiable while resources to satisfy them are limited. That doesn't mean we'll ever stop trying to satisfy them and as such means we won't ever stop trying to make money.
For those that don't want money anymore, they are either
I) filthy rich
II) have attained spiritual freedom or
III) both.
Either way, the people that fall into these categories are very few.

Do facial appearance really matter when choosing a lifetime partner?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Looks will always matter, but to a degree.
Looks will fade or change over the lifetime you are with your partner. You can look for clues in the elders of their family to see what they MAY mature into but even that is not guaranteed.
What is more important is their personality, is their "beauty" on the inside? Remember you are planning (although plans don't always work out) to spend the rest of your life with this individual.
It is far more important to ensure that you are compatible on a mental and emotional level than on a physical one that will fade over time. Remember the saying looks are fleeting.
Choose your partner based on commonalities. If one of you is a heavy partier and the other a stay at home bookworm I guarantee this will not last a lifetime. If however you both enjoy the same activities whether that is curling up with a book, watching a movie, playing video games together or skydiving or cave spleunking, then you will find that your relationship will last longer and be that more fulfilling for the both of you.
Terms like soul-mates are often thrown around when talking about life time partners and in general that means when two souls are in harmony it will be a lasting partnership, Notice the absence of looks or physical appearance in that regard.
Remember the knockout blonde she is at 18 will bear NO resemblance to her at 78, So why worry when beauty is only skin deep, its the mind and personality that matters and will endure throughout all the trials and tribulations that come with a lifetime partner.

In choosing a partner, in as much as having one with a character and lifestyle that is acceptable to you, i think physical appearances also have a great role to play. We cannot argue the fact that inner qualities like well-behaved, responsible, kind are very important in choosing a partner but what draws most people to others at first glance is something externally expressed. For example most men out there will tell you that the first thing that attracted them to their wives in most cases is her beauty. It is no strange thing or something to argue about. It is what you see externally that pushes you to get to know what the internal part is made of.
Many people have always said the most important aspect in choosing a partner is character. I have always gone for 50-50; character and a beautiful lady. I mean everyone deserves the best and i should not focus only on one part. The question i always ask is when you both sleep at night and you turn every night to look at the person lying beside you; at that moment you will be appreciating her facial appearance and external looks and guess what will happen if it is not something you like or admire?
In choosing a partner, you need to know that you will love and appreciate their whole being be it inernal and facial appearances. None is more important; I find them both important in picking a partner. So, picking a partner is not as easy as buying a pair of shoes that you plan to manage it if you don't like it's entirety. It is a human and a heart you are dealing with and if you don't appreciate the whole person then i think you should keep looking and pick the right one.
I hope this helps...

Attraction is important when finding a mate. Over time looks aren't as important in a relationship, and this is normal. We all age, and we can't expect our partners to look "super hot" forever, but as you age with your partner, you will both maintain love and attraction as long as the foundation of the relationship is sound.
There are of course many more aspects that play into choosing a partner. Looks should only be one facet of what "attracts" you. Chemistry, and compatibility are just as, if not more important.

- When it comes to partner its always bad to reject someone by seeing the face instead you can try knowing each other and the same person will look beautiful if you really love them. If you look only for the beauty then after certain age beauty fades aways only the character will remain. If beauty goes your love may also get vanished. Person who choose you for your beauty will care about the society and all external factors they will not get satisfied and will be looking for better better and better. Beauty is something what you feel about someone not how they look.

Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

No it can't. The recession was bought on by high scale corruption in the government. It has been going on for years under President Zuma and he has manipulated government funds into private pockets.
There is no money left as it has all been stolen. Over half of the tax revenue paid over has been misspent or stolen. Businesses that used to rely on government business has disappeared taking the money away from the person in the street. The recent fuel hike is to generate more funds for the governments coffers but the question is what will happen with that revenue.
The Gupta brothers and Zuma managed to manipulate the system through bribes and threats to enrich themselves. The ministers in parliament were all on the payroll so there would be no whistle blowers. Zuma was in power for 8 years and they were doing it before he even was appointed.
The truth is that the corruption is so deep even though Zuma has been replaced by Ramaphosa it will take a new government to sort it all out. The chairman of the ANC party was implicated last week as a huge instigator trying to force the banks to keep the accounts open for the Gupta run businesses.
The police force has been bought by the officials and is not working like it should. The ministers managed to employ and position friends in high places so that they would be protected if anything happened.
The entire government,police force and other officials need to be removed before the country can recover. The next general election is next year and the entire country is praying that the opposition can win and sort the mess out. That is the only answer to fix these issues and there is a small chance of that happening.

Yes, I've had a couple interesting turning points in my quite short life (I'm 23) which, when I look back at now, I can really see how they made me into the person I am today and how they shaped my current reality. Some of them were positive while others, not so much. What's interesting about this, is that the bad decisions I made in life, that resulted in some serious consequences, are the ones from which I've learned the most from, and which made me into a much better person in the end.
Negative stories aside, I would like to share one that had the biggest influence on my financial life and got me close to a point where I could be able to free myself from the tyranny of the modern financial system. If all goes well though.
I was always looking for ways to separate myself from the regular workforce and trying to find ways to work for myself. Whether it's a business idea or an investment of any sort that could return some nice profits. I was spending most of my days trying to find opportunities that would free me financially. They couln't be regular jobs, as those are hard to find in Croatia if you don't have connections high up, which I don't have. So I needed to create something where I could work for myself. Doing something I like, when I want and for how long I want.
I never wanted to be anyones b**** anyway. Working a shitty 500€ a month job that doesn't pay for anything else than the rent and utilities was worse than prison. It was enslavement.
Circa 18 months ago
Browsing the internet for opportunities I stumbled upon the DollarVigilante on youtube aka Jeff Brewick. Ever since the first video I was in love with his mentality and disgustment with the todays society, control system, governments and the monetary system. I was hooked. Literally started watching his videos backwards, all the way up till the first one he published.
A couple of weeks went by and I was going through my morning routine of drinking coffee while checking out the new DollarVigilante video. I can't remember really what he was talking about but it doesn't matter. What matters though is one little word he mentioned. Do you want to know which word it was? He said "Steemit". And described it as a way to oppose the massive censorhsip that is happening and a way to earn some cryptocurrency for blogging. I was so interested in what he said that I quickly paused everything I was doing and wen't on to see what Steemit is and how to get started.
Instantly addicted
It didn't take me more than a minute to create my account. For some reason the account creation system bugged out and I got my account the same day. It then took me a week to realize that Steemit isn't a scam and about two months to realize what it's all about, how and why it works and all of the technical mumbo-jumbo which I felt was neccessary to understand to maximise my chances of success.
When I figured it out I was so overwhelmed by the feeling: "This is going to be the next big thing. I'm so glad that I got here this early" and "Ok, now it's time to stack as much STEEM as possible because it won't be worth this little for a long time". I was and still am to this day 100% sure that Steem has only massive success written in its future. From then, to this day, I have devoted most of my days to the STEEM blockchain because I can see how, if I really dedicate my full attention here I could quite easily liberate myself from the schackles of the financial system.
Only hard work and dedication
With only Steem in my mind for the next 16 moons I focused my attention on earning as much STEEM as I can because I knew, I won't have a long time before it becomes so valuable its too hard to earn anything. I admit that by my first estimate STEEM should already be mooning but, I care not about its current price. I'm quite happy to see it tank all the way down to 0.7 because that means that I can actually earn more STEEM tokens in the end. And even though they are worth less now, it doesn't matter. I earn more tokens! As I said so many times before, I'm not here for the short term gains, and will never, if I don't need to, sell any of my SP. I'm here for the next 10, 20 years, as I can see the potential and what the long run will bring.
Up until today I was able to earn about 5.2k and have bought 1k STEEM. Looking at the current price of STEEM I could have earned more by working on that 500€ a month job but, there were so many times I was earning 2x,3x more than I ever could earn with a normal job here in Croatia.
STEEM is my lottery ticket
If all goes well for the Steem blockchain and STEEM price get's where it deserves to be, I'll be a millionaire in my national currency. I won't sell any of it though, but what I want to be able to do is, to live of curation rewards. If I can achieve that, life is GG and all financial problems are gone. If I can fully support myself through rewarding other content creators then I really have nothing to worry about. At least not financially.
That is what I'm trying to achieve and why I'm devoting my full attention to the Steem blockchainand even though it might not be visible on my blog currently. It's all because of the Dlie fiasco which I still didn't recover from. I'll just need a couple more days and I'll be back, better than ever.
Anywaay, sorry for the ramble guys but to conclude, watching that DollarVigilante video and how I reacted to it was probably the most important decision I ever made.

Well come to think of it, it was one of the thing that really acted as a "turning point" in my life in Steemit.
Now that might really sound not ok but yeah the major impact of it has driven my life to whole new level and I am really glad that it happened to me.
To be more specific
I never really liked my day job, though I was good at it but it was a job that I had to do, out for my living and in a forceful way. After I joined Steemit (it was just a curiosity as I joined many sites before with no different results) I started to go through it and after giving it some attention I was finally going the way that I always wanted to. Being free and to do work that I love and slowly it became a major part of my life both financially and in mentally as well. I passion came into reality and I am loving and learning from every new details that I get in here.
With all the improvements in Steemit and the future that it holds for the users I am having really high hopes (that I believe) in the coming days the users who are working hard will sure be benefited in the long run.

I have experienced a very good turning point in life, which has changed me entirely. It happened few years back, when my son was just 2 years old. He was perfectly healthy, and fell sick of normal cold and cough, which soon became critical. And we were in the hospital for 3-4 days.
At that age, I usually had the perception of to be able to do anything in life, if you have money. I was adamant in nature. And during that time, it hit me big. We reached to every good doctor, called them, few of them told he was in the right course of treatment. However, his condition was not improving.
Then a nurse advised me to offer some prayers at a particular temple, and told, only a miracle can help us. I felt very handicapped at that time. My vision on wealth / money completely changed during that time. I had heard it many times, but this time I practically felt it. For the first time I prayed and begged something in front of God, with my honest offerings.
My son survived, and since then I am a changed man. Meaning of life has changed since then as well. I try to help others as much as I can. And I never feel pride for any wealth. Because everything that is in your control, may possibly change entirely in a matter of few minutes. So live the life with affection, relationships, friends. Nothing else matters.

I had a fracture on my lower back some years back and the pain was very excruciating. I couldn't stand nor walk and I was getting scared that I may not be able to walk or engage in normal life's activities. Out of frustration I decided to turn to God almighty and ask him for help. I prayed to him to heal me if he was real and that I would live my life to please him if he did. I know this may sound stupid to some of you out there that don't believe that there is a God. Surprisingly, the pain stopped after some days and I could walk and perform normal life's functions very well. It may seem like a coincidence to some of you but I've been lying down for weeks with the constant pain, so I knew the healing was from God. I got more serious in my services to God and I got the assurance that God is realer than imagined.

The turning points usually arrive when you feel the worst, confronting the reality after escaping it for some time
After that kind of period, usually comes a period of intense pain that will manifest in one or another way... but you will feel it, you will be actively engaged in feelings of pain (physical, mental, spiritual) but don't take that as something terrible
After that kind of period, usually comes a period of intense pain that will manifest in one or another way... but you will feel it, you will be actively engaged in feelings of pain (physical, mental, spiritual ) but don't take that as something terrible
Rather take it as experience & collect EXP like in a video-game :) Since it's a fact, after the toughest periods always come the better ones, ones that will contribute to your growth & change your life, make you a new person
There is no growth without pain. and pain is the crucial aspect when it comes to turning points, if everything goes perfect you won't even think about turning that page!
That's what's called "TURNING POINT", when you finally decide to confront your Demons/Fears/Traumas and decide it's time for something new, for a fresh start
So, rather than crying "why always me" when it happens next time, rather embrace your pain for what is coming afterwards! A new, upgraded baddass you with potential to influence his reality better than ever before

How do you deal with negative "Self-Projection"?
I call it "Self Projection" and I am struggling on how to stop, prevent, or even keep myself from doing such a thing as this, because it is not a good thing and doesn't feel really good when it happens to you on a bad level. I want to figure out how to be positive when self projecting.
"Psychological Projection is a theory in psychology in which the human ego defends itself against unconscious impulses or qualities (both positive and negative) by denying their existence in themselves while attributing them to others." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychological_projection

Negative self projection stems from feeling of worthlessNess. Once a person thinks that he or she doesn't worth much or they don't have what it takes to be accepted by others, they project such negative energy wherever they go. One's childhood plays a greater part in how highly they would see themselves. Kids that grew up without having much love from parents or family always suffer from this.
What such a person need to do is to look inward and write out everything about himself or herself that makes him or her unique or different. Write out everything that you are good at and start celebrating yourself for having those qualities. Every human has unique qualities in himself or herself. Tell yourself that you're wonderful and deserves the best in life.treat yourself right and talk good about yourself. Nobody can treat you better than you treat yourself. If you can treat yourself right, you'll start projecting good image about yourself that would make others want to come close to you and treat you right
Love yourself and treat yourself right. Value yourself and flaunt your uniqueness. Let go of your gory past and concentrate on your present and future. See you worth and celebrate it. The more you do this, the more all those negative energies that you've been projecting previously would flee from you.

Why are scientist finding it hard to discover the cure for cancer?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Hello, answering your question. The cure of cancer is a very open question because each cancer is different from the other, depending on the area hosted. The cure of cancer is difficult because there are involved an exorbitant amount of genes and thus mutations in the genetic code that causes cells to grow disproportionately.
The body is made up of billions of units called cells that work together. For this, there is a large machinery inside each cell which indicates the function of each one. If all goes well, the body grows well and there is no cancer. It appears when something in this system, which must be coordinated, ceases to be and the cells acquire properties different from those of normal cells. The fundamental thing about cancer is the loss of coordination between cells.
An idea of the genetic changes, responsible for cancer. The study of viruses and other subsequent investigations serve to understand that there are genes that can initiate changes and generate a tumor. But there are more genes that change: some that are active in normal cells are no longer active, their function disappears, and others that should not be active begin to work.
The medical researcher Renato Dulbecco (Italy, 1914) received the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 1975 for his research on cancer. Specifically, because it helped to understand the relationship between the genetic material of a cell and the formation of tumors.
Each cancer behaves differently as I said before. In the case of breast cancer, a cure has been developed by the Venezuelan doctor Jacinto Convit.

Scientists have found many cures for cancer over the decades.
Unfortunately they haven't discovered one that a human can survive as of yet.
Cancer at its base level is a mutation in your body that slowly takes over and mutates more and more of you. It is possible to stop the spread and mutation by killing these cancer carrying genes through a variety of methods, the most common being bombardment by radition. However since they were once normal healthy cells, the radiation needed to kill a mutated cell also kills the healthy cells around the area.
It is a delicate balance to use enough radiation to kill the bad cells while leaving as many of the good, healthy cells unaffected. This why cancer can sometimes "come back" or a patient will no longer be in remission. They simply did not get all of the cancerous cells at time of treatment and the surviving cells have begun to multiply
A lot of the current work in cancer research is focusing on mapping the cancer markers themselves. Rather than killing the infected cells, there is hope of using a retro-virus to in essence remove the cancerous elements from the affected cells and return them to a healthy state.

Who is the most controversial scientist you know?
Inventions or discovery that you think is controversial.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

I don't think anyone can be more controversial than J. Robert Oppenheimer.
Regarded as the Father of the Atomic Bomb, he recalls thinking the words, "Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds," when witnessing the first detonation of a nuclear weapon during the Trinity nuclear test, a month before atomic bombs that he and his team created were dropped in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
However, aside from leading the research that lead to the creation of the atomic bomb, what makes Oppenheimer really controversial are his postwar experiences which included, a meeting with President Truman that allegedly went badly and resulted in him infuriating the President and his critique of the US move from atomic weapons to the hydrogen bomb.
Oppenheimer was also made more notorious as the subject of a controversial security hearing that stripped him of his Q clearance, saw him accused of everything from having Communist ties to being a Soviet spy, and heralded the end of the "messianic role of scientists" in postwar policies. In the end, Oppenheimer was exiled from his work and the academe.
Eventually, President. Kennedy moved to rehabilitate Oppenheimer's reputation and Oppenheimer was awarded the prestigious Enrico Fermi Award by President Johnson, following President Kennedy's assassination.
Because of this, I would consider Oppenheimer as one of the most controversial scientists of our time. Not only did he lead the team that delivered the atomic bomb to the world, his professional struggles after the war was also rife with controversy and intrigue.

Richard Feynman was one of the most productive and famous physicists of the 20th century. Especially in relation to Manhattan Project - a very secret effort made by the United States to make atomic bombs.
However, he is also a fad and has a reputation as a troublemaker. When bored with the project he was working on at Los Amos, Feynman reportedly spent his spare time unloading locks and breaking into people's safes - not his money or property, but to show how easily a system was hacked.
And, that's not just the adventure. While developing the theory of quantum electrodynamics - which led him to the Nobel prize - he reportedly often mingled with Las Vegas dance girls, had time to study until he became a Maya language expert, learned Tuva's distinctive throat singing, and explained how the rubber seal of the O ring (O- ring) triggered the Challenger spacecraft explosion in 1986.

What are Coral reefs; How are they formed; What are their Uses and Benefits?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Coral reefs occur as a result of the accumulation of creatures. A suitable environment is required for live accumulation. This environment is shallow island beaches with an average sea water temperature of more than 20 degrees Celsius. It is mostly applicable to islands on continental sides.
The calcareous plant and animal organisms that live here are called coral reefs. In fact, coral reefs are the names of aragonite structures produced by these creatures. They are located in a small amount of sea water that contains nutrients.
Of course, some organisms are more dominant in this mass. These are usually stone corals and colonial sanitizers. The common point of these two is that they have an outer skeleton composed of calcium carbonate. Their skeletons are crumbled by wave and bio-erosion, revealing life-supportive calcium formation for corals, various animals and plants.
An estimated one percent of ocean surface areas are coral reefs. The corals in the shallow parts of tropical waters are most commonly found in the Pacific Ocean. The coral reefs, which are among the richest and most diverse ecosystems, can be found in the cold and deep waters.

Nevertheless the cameras mobile phones have nowadays have some simmilar abilities to adjust picture settings like professional cameras do.

It depends on your goals!
Some are saying how streaming on vimm.tv is much better experience, that might be correct - but they can't reward their streamers in a way DTube can (at least for now).
I honestly believe Vimm has great potential & it will develop, so I can see in the near future at least some kind of delegation heading their way
On the other hand, DTube is well established Dapp & they usually take care of all the problems related to their app, so if there is problems with streaming they will get solved (I didn't try it out yet)
If you keep in mind how they are a whale (1 000 000+ SP), they could be a better choice (at least for now) for new users to stream - since that kind of support will ensure them growth on the platform & allocating some SP their way
So yeah, it depends. If you are a millionaire & don't care about the money, then you can buy yourself 1 000 000 SP & support your streams on the Vimm network alone :D
Otherwise, I'd advise you to use DTube firstly or even better use BOTH platforms! and see how it goes :)

This might change in the future as Dtube just released the streaming option not so long ago, but for now, Vimm.tv is definitely a better choice.

What stage in life do you think is the most critical?
Is it infancy? Childhood? Teenage? 20s? Mid 20s? Marriage? 30s? 40s? or what?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Every stage of life is identically critical in it's importance. For example, you are a child & you don't know how to handle your emotions. You parents make wrongdoings to you & therefore induce trauma, a trauma you don't know how to handle & put in yourself instead
The trauma goes deeper inside of yourself, feeding more of you (energy) and at the same time being harder to remember
Later you go through your childhood, that trauma follows you & potentially even some new ones, let's say your school-buddies are bullying you
Instead of going through it, defeating you just have another trauma inside yourself, as you didn't learn how to cope with them while you were an infant
You finally came to your teenage years, thinking how you know something when in reality EGO is creating your reality. The same EGO that was formed out of all the unprocessed traumas you've undergone, since you were an infant & a child. Ego was formed in order to protect you, to make you something you aren't - but in reality it can't do it, only you can do your inner healing based on your understanding of your traumas. Therefore, the ego points you in wrong directions in life - probably drugs, sex, casual relationships etc making you search for yourself on the wrong places, when in reality all the true happiness lies deep inside yourself
You just need to break those negative energy bondages! But infancy made you do it, every single phase of your life is connected :) Not just that, even the lives (traumas) of your distant relatives affect you, as everything is getting carried through the genome code
Even your PAST LIFE! But that's something we can speak of some other time :P So yeah, pretty much everything matters... Every single phase of life is crucially important, good infancy could be most important as well since that's where most traumas are formed
On the other side, mid 20s could very well be the answer, as that is the time when you slowly wake up & if get on the right track, you can slowly start to unfold your traumas & do the healing you so much crave for
So the most precise answer would be, every single phase of your life is important. Every single day. And it's a new beginning, a new chance to become a "new self", "upgraded version of self" that is slowly changing itself (for the better) in order to change a world that is somewhat static.

Project MK ultra was dubbed CIA's mind control program and it includes countless experiments done on human beings in an attempt to better understand how the human brain works, how to take control and manipulate it.
The program engaged in so many illegal activities that I wonder how it is even possible that CIA was allowed to conduct them without sanctions. The horror of the experiments they were/are conducting on humans echoes throughout the world to this day.
The experiments included techniques like:
High doses of LSD followed by intense hypnosis, lobotomy, electrocution by high and low voltages, intravenous administration ofbarbiturate into one arm and an amphetamine into the other, inducing trauma based compartmentalization of the brain and many more horrific techniques human guinea pigs had to for their research.
For those who find it hard to believe just watch this video of Bill Clinton apologising to victims of the MK ultra mind controll program
I find it ridiculous how he admitted to everything CIA was doing and he thinks everything is going to be alright now. People will forgive and move one. Even though the CIA is still conducting these kind of experiments to this day. As I write this post, there are hundreds of people in immense pain, going through unthinkable torture sponsored and conducted by their own government.
If you want to go in depth about this issue there is this great video of a MK ultra victim who managed to escape the grips this insane project

How does video monetization work on Youtube?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

One word: Advertisements!
Google takes content creators who wants to place "ads" on their videos. If a viewer clicks on the ad or watches at least 30 seconds of it, then the content creator gets paid. The amount is mostly based on one's CPM (cost per thousand video views), if your channel is attracting a good number of viewers then your CPM could be worth over $2.
A good formula to estimate how much a content creator will earn is: Views x CPM = $$$
If your CPM is around $2 then for 1 million views:
1 million views x ($2/1000views) = $2000
Seems like a good number at first but when you take into consideration the number of people who have adblockers installed or those who clicked "Skip Ad". an estimated of only 25% of those views are paid.

If you are a content creator or you want to be one, and you are looking for a way to earn money as 'Youtuber', here we show you the requirements to monetize Youtube videos in 2018.
As it is known, the most popular video platform in the world offers users the possibility to monetize their videos through advertising. Thanks to this, many 'Youtubers' have found in the platform the way to make a living uploading videos.
However, for some time now Youtube has presented problems that affect the income obtained by the "content creators", due to problems with the advertisers of the platform, which do not allow their ads to be shown in certain videos that contain questionable material.
In order to improve the revenue of its creators and prevent "bad users" affect the Youtube community, Google has chosen to modify its requirements for users who want to earn income from their videos.
Since April 2017, Youtube established a minimum requirement of 10 thousand views in videos for those who want to be part of the Youtube Partner Program (YPP); however, this has not been enough to know if a channel complies or not with the rules of the Community.
Therefore, since January 16, 2018, the new requirements to monetize Youtube videos are:
4 thousand hours of playback time during the last 12 months.
Have at least 1,000 subscribers.
This way, new users of the platform will have it harder if they want to earn money on Youtube.
As for the channels that already monetized their videos, they have until February 20, 2018 to meet the new requirements of Youtube. If you don't have 4,000 hours of playback and have at least 1,000 subscribers by this date, your videos will no longer be monetized. They will be evaluated again when they meet the requirements.
This measure will affect a large number of channels; however, according to Youtube, the earnings of 99% of these users did not exceed $100 during the last year. Negligible figures if we compare them with the earnings of the best paid Youtubers of 2017, which generated millions of dollars with their videos.
And while meeting these requirements can be difficult for most new users, it's not impossible, nor do they guarantee that a channel is suitable for monetization with Adsense.
From Youtube, they plan to have more conversations with content creators who have large channels on the platform, in order to avoid problems that may affect the community or advertisers, such as the recent incident with the Vlogger Logan Paul.
Manual review of Google Preferred channels
Google Preferred is the Youtube program where are the most popular channels of the platform, and where advertisers can place their ads directly in the videos of their choice and thus reach their target audience.
From now on, the channels that belong to Google Preferred will be checked manually by the Youtube team, and only if they are eligible, they will be able to continue belonging to this "VIP" program. In this way, they guarantee that they comply with their requirements and friendly advertising rules.
It is expected that all U.S. channels and videos that belong to this program will be reviewed until mid-February, and before March for the rest of the countries.

The only legitimate work-from-home jobs I have been engaged in is BOOSTPAL.CO.UK
Boostpal is a legitimate UK-based company that specialises in video monetization. It is a video monetization website where registered users are paid to watch YouTube videos through the website. The company gets the money from YouTubers who pay huge sums of money to the company to get them legitimate and real viewers so that their video view count can increase which in turn will fetch these YouTubers more money from YouTube since most of them run ads.
There are several membership: free membership, premium beginner,premium expert,premium pro, platinum plus, and gold edition. The minimum payout is around $15, however you would not be able to make any reasonable amount on free membership since it expires after 13 days an by then you would have made less than $15 because you will be restricted to two videos every day whereas the other premium accounts come with a distinct restriction on the number of videos one can watch in a day, and the respective amount one can make. You can upgrade from free membership to the respective premium membership you prefer by using BTC, Perfect Money, and Mobile Money (popular among Africans).
This is a screenshot of the amount I have made in the past few days. I had to upload it to an image hosting site before I could make it visible on this platform
I am currently on the Platinum Plus membership where I am restricted to 39 videos a day for a total sum of $15 a day. From my chart, one can clearly see that I recently upgrade to the Platinum Plus membership. Payouts are issued every Tuesdays and Fridays.
You have to watch the videos for at least 30 seconds in order to be credited with the money. After one reaches the minimum payout, you can choose to withdraw to your BTC account, Mobile money account,etc.

The Coca-Cola company uses different formulaes for their products in different countries around the world. This is usually tailored to the what the targeted country likes/desires in their beverages.
Some are sweeter than others, others have different flavour profiles introduced to more closely resemble that country's "native taste profile"
In addition the various materials used to bottle and store the product can affect its taste as can the temperature where it is stored and the age of the product itself.

Those who do the bottling can use different sizes of sweeteners, adjusting the tastes of the people in their area. In addition, the addition of chemicals also influences the different flavor of Coca Cola® in various countries. The type of water used in production also affects taste and also the safety of the drink. In some countries, especially those with high levels of water pollution, there are high amounts of pesticides.
In 2003, an Indian investigative body found that the water used by the local bottlers of Coca Cola® contained DDT and Malathion.

Well it tastes differently in different places because there are different standards of producing all around the world. Certain countries like North American and European countries get higher quality coca cola drinks while countries in Africa get lower quality drinks.
Take for example in Nigeria, a 35cl bottle of coke costs only about 80 naira which translates to about 0.25USD but the same bottle of coke costs about 4-5 times that amount in the US. So either coca cola is ripping off Americans or the quality of the coke produced in Nigeria is far lower than that produced in Nigeria.
This is understandable seeing as paying a dollar for a drink might be a bit much for people in 3rd world countries like Nigeria where the minimum wage is less that 100USD a month.
The coke formula is still the same and hasn't changed but in Countries like Nigeria, I guess some corners are cut in order to make it possible to reduce the price, that's why coke tastes different in different places.
I hope this helps.

The quanitty and types of ingredients used makes it taste different. The food and beverages regulating bodies in all countries set standards that must be met before accepting a product as good for consumption. This standards some times affect materials used in production and the quantity of such materials used.

Currently, could we live without entertainment?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

According to Wikipedia, Entertainment is a form of activity that holds the attention and interest of an audience, or gives pleasure and delight. Entertainment has to do with fun, pleasure, leisure, relaxation, interest etc. Going by this, entertainment has become a part of human life. Human has invented various things for human entertainment such as television, handsets, social media, relaxation center, shows, programs, even the swimming pool. We have become so adapted to it that it will be difficult living without one.
Now let's say all these were taken away, human will still look for a way of entertaining themselves. In the olden days when there was no science and technology, people amused themselves via wrestling, dancing competition, story telling under the moonlight, local outdoor games in Africa, Nigeria as a case study. Human has learnt to adapt to whatever situation they find themselves.
With this I'll say no humans can't live without entertainment, we would always improvise.

Yes, we definitely could. Entertainment is nothing more but a tool to distract you from the things that truly matter in life.
And you might think "wtf is he speaking about", but let me clarify. I do understand you feel great when you are entertaining yourself (playing a videogame, drinking in the club etc) but the fact is long-term you are not doing anything good for yourself. Nor anything constructive. You are just wasting your energy, mental resources and the most precious asset you have - TIME!
So use your time wisely, less entertainment - more things that matter. You know, those little - invisible things. Loving people around you, being present in the moment, appreciating all the beautiful invisible things life has to offer rather than wasting yourself on an illusion. Cause that's what majority of entertainment these days is - illusion.
True entertainment, therefore true & long-lasting happiness, comes from withing. And that's a fact... until you find it in the very depth of yourself, you'll most likely wander around jumping from one entertainment to another, searching for joy that will never-ever last. Just fade... until you step in another illusion

That's an interesting question. Surely we could survive without any entertainment, but what's the point with that? I'm sure humans have had some form of entertainment for as long as we've interacted with each other, from primal versions of it where people did funny stuff, to more advanced entertainment like we got today with movies and TV shows.
But I don't see any reason why we would not be able to live without it, but it just does not make much sense to do so.

Do you think HF 20 will change how people use Steem in any way starting next week??
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Oh yes, definitely! Dapps built on the Steem blockchain would become much more easier to sign up for and use after the HF20. This mean that the upcoming HF20 is geared towards making dapps the kings on the Steem blockchain. It will effectively make sure that you can make Steem accounts on the dapp itself. Dapps will become free from having to go to steemit.com to register your account.
Platforms like musing.io will grow, gathering and collecting the SP for their needs. The dapps would not only grow but would become independent of steemit for registration and they would get their own users outside the Steemit ecosystem.
Once the signing up process becomes easy, it is expected the more users would flow in and I am expecting musing.io to lead the way!

Yeah. HF20 would cause alot of positive changes on steemit.

Though we can't really say for sure what the overall impact would be until we've seen its workings. I'm just hoping that it would cause the needed improvement on the platform.

Is it right repeating prayers?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

In the book of Matt 6:7 the bible says When ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking” Vain repitions means foolish babbling. God frowns at this. God is not deaf. He can hear us. Saying the same thing over and over at the same time takes up a lot of time. Prayer us a conversation between God and man. Imagine a child walking up to the father and saying "Dad pay my school fees" over and over with no break. The father would think the child has gone mad, so it is with us and God. Some churches make their members recite a particular prayer over and over for a certain purpose, this is not in line with the scripture.
Our prayers should should be short and simple and not like the pagans. When Jesus thought his disciples how to pray in Matt 6:10, it was a simple prayer. When he prayed for the world in the book of John 17 which was the longest prayer he prayed in the bible we didn't see him repeating vainly. Repitioncomes easy instead of letting words come from our hearts. If you pray in the spirit you won't have need to repeat.
Instead of vain repition, be persistent in prayers just like 2cor 12:8 says pray always. Pray without ceasing. This is what the bible preaches. You can pray so many times a day about a particular issue but don't go repeating same words over and over in the same prayer.

Repeat ones prayers doesn't make it anymore more effective. We were told in Scriptures to avoid vain repetition.
Most times the reason why people keep repeating their prayers is because they have lost ideas on what to next to pray for. They just want to make up for time and lose out in the end.
I once read from an apostle of faith called Smith Wigglesworth. He said something profound. He said if you had to pray to God seven times before you got to the answer to your prayers, it meant that you asked six times in unbelief.
Jesus Christ also said in the Bible that when you pray, believe you have received the petition that you asked and you will receive it.
This means that when we pray, there should be the believe in our heart that God hears us and has granted our petition.
That's why it is important to pray in tongues. When we pray in tongues, we pray the right way.
It's very effective as in doing so, the Spirit of God prays through us. There can be no vain repetition with praying in tongues.
When we pray in tongues, we have direct connection with God's spirit. This so because the Spirit searches the deep things of God. (Romans 8:27).
Praying in tongues is the cure for vain repetition.

Some people view repeating prayers as lack of Faith, but that is not always the case. Sometimes, we just want to keep asking for the same thing until we've seen the result. It's called persistence. There's nothing wrong in repeating prayers for as long as the repetition is not caused by doubt

So the new iPhone Xs comes with an e-sim, can anyone please explain to me what that is and how it works?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Well it's true that the iPhone Xs has one, I'm not sure about any other phone though. An e-sim is basically a sim that's built into a smartphone and unlike the nano SIM and micro SIM, it can't be removed. It's the latest advancement in phone technology which has seen all other components get smaller and screens get bigger.
The e-sim is about 15% the size of a nano-sim so it's actually pretty small. The e-sim is seemingly easier to use that normal s because provided your network provider supports it's use, activating the sim for a particular network is just as easy as downloading the app of your network provider and scanning a barcode and the sim will be automatically configured. This is great for people who travel alot because you can simply just switch network providers or carriers once you enter a new country.
It also helps keep your phone gear connected without the use of Bluetooth or a WiFi connection, to the best of my knowledge this holds true for iPhones and their watches.
The only downside to using these is that if you lose your phone or your phone is down and you want to put your SIM in someone else's phone and make a call then it won't be possible, otherwise it's a pretty cool idea if you ask me.
I hope this helps.

Apple officially introduced the three new iPhones. Two of them namely the iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max are equipped with dual-SIM features.
This is the first time Apple has pinned a dual-SIM feature on their iPhone. Uniquely, Apple uses e-SIM technology for one SIM card in this feature. What exactly is e-SIM?
As we know, the Subscriber Identification Module or what we are familiar with the term "SIM card", has several types based on the size of the Nano, Micro, and standard sizes.
The most widely used today is Nano SIM because of its smaller size so it doesn't take up a lot of space on a cellphone.
At first glance e-SIM is similar to the SIM card inject system which had sprung up a few years ago. The difference is, the SIM card inject system is carried out permanently for one cellular operator while e-SIM users can still change numbers from one operator to another.
As the name implies, e-SIM alias electronic SIM does not have a physical form like a card in general. E-SIM is a module that is integrated and attached to the cellphone and cannot be removed from random.

Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Meteors are objects, usually rocks that enter the earth's atmosphere from outer space. When a massive rock is floating in space or orbiting the sun, it's called an asteroid. If by some chance, it begins to move through space, it then becomes a meteoroid. If or when it enters the earth's atmosphere, that's when its called a meteor. As it enters the earth's atmosphere, the speed of its decent makes it heat up rapidly and burn. That's what people call shooting stars. But most meteors are too weak to withstand the heat and the force of its decent through the atmosphere so they are broken apart long before they reach the earth's surface. That's why shooting stars seem to disappear eventually

When do you know that you had enough of something?
Thus question apply to anything, from a relationship to eating food to exercise.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Excitement is the trigger for pleasure. We move towards what excites us. We want more of what excites us.
Excitement is the infusion of energy. When you are excited about something, you spend all your resources towards ensuring that you have enough of that thing. However, there's bound to be the end.
Every excitement must come to an end except you are a mask with a smiling face.
Usually, when you've have had enough of something, fatigue sets in.
For instance, I used to love playing football when I was very young. I was quite energetic for someone my age. I could play football from sunrise till sunset. We would play in groups and it was not uncommon to see me play for almost all groups because I was constantly replacing those who were tired.
However, the indicator to me that I had had enough was when fatigue sets in. If I'm tired, it means it's all over for me.
So, that's one marker.
Another marker to know you have had enough of something is that it no longer triggers any form of excitement in you. Something that would normally arouse your interest now loses its excitement. It's an indication that you've had enough.
I don't players football as often as I used to but I now play video games very often too. I could be with my game pad and play from morning till night. The only thing that stops me then is when the game loses its excitement factor. This could come in many ways (I mean for my gaming). It could be that I've been beaten too many times or I've won too many times. More often than not, it's the first. Those who play FIFA can tell you that the game can be frustrating at times. So, after like eight or ten attempt at trying to beat particular team and coming short, I pack up and switch off the game. It's an indication that I've HAD ENOUGH.
I hope I've done justice to your question.

This depends on what the something is. So I will take it from that perspective. I know had enough of a particular food when I no longer have appetite for it and the mere sight of it irritates me then I'll know I've eaten it so much. If I stay away from it though for a long while I start to crave for of again.
I know I've had enough of a particular activity when I no longer enjoy doing it and can't get the usual satisfaction I usually get from it. If it's a particular job I discover I force myself to do it then I know I've had enough. If it's rest, I know I've had enough when I'm energized.
Basically, losing focus, Interest, joy or any form of entertainment indicates that one has had enough.

@futuremind has said it all. Technology may not be able to stop cheating. Technology has brought cloning apps and tracking devices but still people cheat.
In my country people use the diabolic way to tell if someone is cheating and most times the end result is always very brutal.
Truth is why do you want to catch your partner cheating red handed. Every cheating partner has an usual behaviour they display that makes their partner suspect something is not right. Usually when you have the gut feeling that your partner is cheating, chances are he or she is actually cheating. If technology reveals it to you then what next? You try to make it right or you walk away.

Technology will never stop human beings from cheating. Either you are a person who cheats, or you are not. I've not met many people who are cheaters and ever seem to change their ways.
Technology is already advanced enough for people to track and monitor others without their consent, and that is generally perceived by most as morally and ethically wrong, as well as illegal.
Even if you were monitoring the alleged cheater in some kind of underhanded way, the bottom line is that they are a cheater, and you are better off without them.

All the while digging out of the prison with their spoons.
After a few years, the monk died when their little escape cave collapsed on him. He died but not before giving the Edmond a map to hidden treasure.
Edmond found the treasure and went back to his hometown as a count to find the men that wronged him and have his vengeance.

One movie that I will never get tired of watching is Clueless, the 1995 coming of age comedy starring Alicia Silverstone and a young Paul Rudd.
I know it's juvenile, a little shallow, and it's mostly for young adults. But, there's just something about watching a movie you loved when you were younger, at a time when you were still discovering yourself and coming of age like the characters in the movie, that puts a smile on my face. Maybe it's the idea of youth, its vibrant energy and hopefulness that I can't get enough of. It's just a wonderful feeling being and being taken back and reminded of those happier and simpler times. That's probably why I couldn't ever get tired of watching that movie, despite having seen it so many times over the years.

I am also an Engineering graduate and I totally feel everything on the movie. I cried a lot of times not only because I am an emotional person but also how the movie was directed. It is truly wonderful, no wonder why they've received so much awards domestically and internationally.
Truly and amazing movie. The life of Ranchoddas, Farhan, and Raju were all different but has portrayed a true life experience to engineering students. Most of the scenes are pretty much realistic that we totally relate.

There are a few benefits to consuming algae that most people don't even know. Most people see algae as that disgusting thing that grows in stagnant water but here are some benefits that might change minds
1) algae aids weight loss: this is seen more in brown algae because it contains a pigment called fucoxanthin. It's a pigment that helps in weight loss by increasing thermogenin in the body.
2) it helps the heart: studies show that blue-green algae helps to fight against non alcoholic fatty liver disease disease and cardiovascular disease. Both of which are common diseases in and health problems nowadays.
3)cancer fighters: studies and research show that many types of algae fight cancer cells and slow them down. This means that algae could be a possible cure for cancer one day.

As I can see many are writing about the micro-nutrient benefits of Algae (Vitamins, Minerals) I thought why not tell you more
While it is truth that Algae are high in the nutrients that make you age backwards, as a matter of fact, your whole immune system is made of Vitamins & Minerals so ingesting Algae daily will greatly help you to keep it in tact
Keeping that in mind, let's not forget how Algae are filled with proteins & contain all the amino-acids we need
Being the #1 answer to world hunger. That is the #1 benefit of algae in my humble opinion
When we compare 100 grams of Spirulina opposed to a Meat Steak (something majority of humanity is stuck on), we'll get this shocking truth:
Spirulina VS Meat
Protein: 57g / 25g
Iron: 158%/ 13%
Calcium: 12% / 1%
Fat: 8g / 19g
So, not only Spirulina outweighs meat heavily in terms of proteins & iron, it is as a matter of fact much better when it comes to rest of the nutrients (as you can see on others comment of the post, I won' repeat)
Not only that, when you compare how it need on average 1/2 to 1 hour to go through your digestive system, it is a complete revolution in terms of nutrition. You might ask why? Well think about it, meat needs at least 48-72 hours to leave your digestion, if you think how it's dead flesh as well filled with toxins & parasites (larva in general), then the answer why Spirulina is FOOD OF THE FUTURE is SELF EXPLANATORY

I've heard you say this a couple of times before but never understood the reasoning of the backwards aging. Could you elaborate more on why it happens? Sounds interesting enough but, I haven't found any information that supports that claim.
The point you are trying to make with meat is good (nutrient wise) but consider the average recommended dose for both Chlorella and Spirulina never exceed more than 10g a day. While people will eat a 300g steak without an isssue, I haven't yet heard of anyone that consumed 100g of algae in a day.

Good questions.
It's because of quantities of Vitamin E, Tyrosine, Tocopherol & Selenium
All of them were proven to have anti-aging effects on the body
There are many scientific studies on the topic, conducted by ncbi.
Feel free to check them out, but I doubt it you want to waste your time on that :)
Average recommended dose, by Food & Drug administration agency. Should I even mention some of the leading people in there are closely related to the Monsanto company (now called Bayer)... I feel you can connect the dots
The same agency says sugar is safe to intake in 30 g per day, but it isn't - 1 gram of processed sugars instantly intoxicates your body & will not get out until you detoxicate for months from any kind of it

Yes, I think, @musing has potential to grow bigger than them, because there is no reward to the users involved in those platforms. However, it needs lot of work.
Currently, only steemit users can use musing.io. And getting a steemit account is not that straight. With discounted accounts concept coming in Hard Fork 20 ( 3 days away), probably @musing can plan to sponsor account creation in future to facilitate users join the platform instantly.

Some of the advantages of marrying early are: you take on responsibility early and avoid reckless lifestyle, you have your kids early and all of you will grow old together, you experience the joy of martial bliss early, etc. It's always very cute seeing a 55 years dad or mum already having a grand child. Sometimes, when you see them walking with their own grown up kids, you would think that they're siblings. Marrying early has lots of benefits if you marry the right person.

In your opinion, do people who obey religion will certainly go to heaven?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:
Submit
Well the answer of this question is relative to what religion you're talking about, what their version of heaven is and what the terms for getting there are, but I think that if you follow the doctrines of your religion then you should find yourself in heaven when the time comes.
The problem is that the doctrines and holy books of every religion are open to interpretation by everyone who reads it. The message that you see may not exactly be the same message that I see and as such people will often see war where there's peace or see blue where there's red.
I also believe that it's not everyone that is religious that will go to heaven or at least their version of heaven in their own religion. I've seen cruel hearted human beings who justify their cruelty by saying that it's "God's work". Just look at the war on terror, millions of people have been killed and the perpetrators truly believe that killing innocent women and children will take them to heaven.
The Christians killed millions in the past under the pretence of "God's Work" and there isn't a doubt in my mind that the people who were involved in such are NOT in heaven.

Mostly it depends on the person and the Religion.
There are people who are just being misguided on the name of religion and they are thinking it right way whereas, the things that particular religion stated are not being used so that is a misjudge issue and the person who is following the wrong way thinking of it the right way will definitely not be in peace let alone end up in Heaven.
While it is the duty of ours to go through the religion and get the roots of it as much as possible as abide by the rules of it and if the belief is strong enough than there is sure a place for us in Heaven.
While there are people who does not believe in Hell or Heaven, they have their reasons and those people who does have theirs.
Well in my opinion I do believe if you obey the right way of Religion than you shall go to Heaven

We read a lot about the abhorrent practise of female genital mutilation, but there is very little written about the very common practise of boys being circumcised, obviously at a young age without their permission and often due to nothing more than 'religious' reasons.

I myself used to have a posting schedule here on Steem to which I strictly followed until two months ago. Most of these topics are things I am passionate about and is interested in so you can say that most of these are my niches.
For my Tuesdays, Wdnesdays, Saturdays and Sundays, truth be told I mostly get my topics out of Hot and the Trending section. Sure around 80% of the posts there are what we can call "low-quality" and are only there because of the use of bid-bots, but surprisingly once in a while there are decent rants that will just make you think and make a little rant of in response. Surprisingly, it's also a good place to hunt new SteemTools to which I write every Wednesdays.
So yeah in other words Trending is the home for Steem's Drama and from personal experience, people are nosy in nature so you will surely get an audience if you express your opinions with what's currently hot with other Steemians.
Well that 2 months ago, right now I'm mostly just focusing on my Gaming and Personal blog posts. Seems scary now to express your opinions against the big players here as most of them are quick to downvote you :)

To be completely honest "Trending" page is so rigged I didn't check it in ages. Pretty much anyone who has few hundred STEEM available (approximately 300) can position themselves on top of the trending for the whole week
Why would I read that BS? And that's one of the main problems STEEMIT has at this point (I'm saying Steemit as it's the most used front-end)
Let me clarify, when new users come first of all, it take weeks to get an account (will change with HF-20). Secondly, they encounter that shitty trending page that has nothing do with real trending but with who bought more bots to promote their shitty posts
That usually is a shocker to many, especially to those who are not in crypto and results in them never coming back. But that wasn't a question of this post
I always always stick with my niche no matter what, if you'll write about what's "trending" in your opinion you'll never become an expert in anything. That will most likely be some recycled material you've seen elsewhere and now you try to keep with the trends by changing it a bit & add your dose of style
But that's not creativity! That's pretty much trying hard to be good at something you aren't good at.
Rather than doing that, always stick with your niche & the things you became expert at, eventually (but slowly) that will lead you to success. Especially if there are some prominent members who might find your content worthy (and your content really is worthy).
Other than that, you should always try harder to make your content as appealing as possible.
Develop writing techniques, improve, learn how to say the most in the least time (as average human doesn't have time), And if you are by all means a no expert in anything, make sure to become one!
Constant education & collecting real, quality information is the way to go! Good luck

Imo, there is no reason to browse the Terrible Trending Page for inspiration. Except if you want to reduce the quality of the content you are putting out. The only flow TTP has, is the constant flow of low value content being promoted with ridiculous amounts of STEEM/SBD to the top of what should be the promoted page, not trending. That is something an avid Steemian shouldn't strive to do but rather try to ge there organically, which is close to impossible nowadays but serves as great motivation. There are still some whales that greatly appreciate valuable content and will give you their full upvote which, if followed by a couple of their whale/orca friends could, quite possibly, bring you to the TTP.
That said, the only thing TTP is good for, is discovering and getting updates on important projects built on top of the Steem blockchain. They will usually be boosted, either by whales or by bidbots and that's the only reason I use the TTP for.
What one should strive to achieve though, is to constantly work on improving the quality of the posts they are publishing. Doing more research before writing, acquiring knowledge in techniques to convey the message better and have it stick with the readers, demanding engagement from the readers throughout the post and intrigue their minds to the point where they will want to follow you and eagerly await your next post.
I don't believe that having a specific niche will ensure success and that it's something everyone should strive to have. A specific range of subjects or a niche is never, in my opinion going to provide more success than well written, fascinating and thought provoking posts about a wide range of different subjects.
It's not about the niche but, the quality.
You can write about the most popular of niches all you want but, if the article itself isn't thought provoking and well written, chances are that you will never achieve any notable success with it. Instead of trying to stick to a specific niche its better to work on techniques to improve your writing, build your vocabulary and learn how to convey the point/message of your article better (make them pop and deliver them with a punch) and in the most interesting way you can.
Your readers will always appreciate a well written and thought provoking article much more than if you were to post low quality articles about a specific niche.

Good question! 🤗💚
Bhel puri is a toasted puffed rice dish common around Mumbai, India. It can be served as a side dish or as a snack. This recipe is a hit with the children, making it a good evening snack.
In kolkata this chaat is known as jhaal muri and in karnataka it is known as churmuri.
Also it is very healthy and tasty and Bhel-Poori, without the Puri is absolutely gluten-free. It is made from crisp rice puffs, little crunchy chick pea noodles and bits of poori puffy fried bread tossed with tomatoes, onions, mango, cilantro and two kinds of spicy chutney tamarind chutney and green chutney. 😋😋
We can make puffed rice at our home by place the rice water and salt into a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, cover, and reduce to a simmer.
Pre-heat the oven to 250º. Spread the rice out onto a small baking sheet. Bake dehydrate in the oven for 2 hours.
The last step is the most important, to puff the rice.
Hope you loved it!💙💚

Well mosquitoes are one of the most dangerous insects in the world and if they're all exterminated they won't be missed. Here's a list of things that could happen if they were exterminated;
1. Malaria/yellow fever/Zika virus death rates will reduce: Without a means to spread these diseases, then there's no way they can survive for long in this world. They'd eventually become extinct just like mosquitoes would.
2. The ecosystem will be fine: Mosquitoes serve as food for a lot of birds, but the truth is that all those birds have alternatives and do t solely depend on Mosquitoes for their nourishment.
Over all, if mosquitoes were completely eradicated, it would probably do more good than harm for humanity as millions of lives would have been saved and ay least 3 deadly deceases will be eradicated alongside it.

One of the darkest movies I have seen in a long time would have to be Stoker, a 2013 psychological thriller starring Nicole Kidman, Matthew Goode, and Mia Wasikowska. It's also the first English language film of Old Boy writer and director Park Chan-wook, which is another disturbingly dark movie.
The film was very intense, suspenseful, and dark family drama. It has been described as a gothic fairytale and borrows a lot of its themes and plot devices from classic Hitchcock thrillers with it's very charismatic villain and a hero that's almost as mentally unstable, if not as evil, as it's villain.
What I find very dark about this movie is the fact that the unspeakable and evil acts are committed by regular people, even seemingly innocent young women. Sure, the main villain is mentally unstable and has been institutionalized for most of his life, but when he was presented in the story, he was seen as a smart, likable, and handsome man. If not for the evil things he does in secret, no one would think of him as a villain.
Then, you have a young hero, who turned out to be as unstable as the villain, and capable of equally heinous acts. Even the supporting characters, who may not have committed evil acts, still allow the evil around them to continue. All these characters explore the human capacity to commit evil, when given the right opportunities or motivation. To make it worse, it's not one stranger hurting another, most of the characters in the film are family. And that makes it a really dark film.

It's got to be The Conjuring 1 & 2 for me. It scared me so much that I literally couldn't muster the courage to walk back to my dorm room alone because I watched it in my friend's room around 1am in the morning.
The scene were Lorraine is hanging clothes then breeze blows a white sheet away and then it hangs in the air for a moment briefly showing the figure of a woman scared me so much that I literally removed the sheets from my bed that night...wasn't going to get caught by any sheet possessing ghost.
The sequel with the demon that possessed a ghost that possesed a girl was just something else!!! The demon in that one scared me so much that till this day I haven't been able to bring myself to say the demons name out loud, I mean like I'm Catholic so you can understand why a demon dressed up like a nun would scare the living shit out of me.

Well there are many choices but as I have to pick one I would go for Switzerland. There are many things that we are missing in our busy life and we( atleast many of us) have gone to that point of becoming similar to a machine. Not that it is our fault but because of the life style and the needs that we are leading for.
Choosing Switzerland because of its natural beauty that it consists all over the country and whoever have visited Switzerland would sure agree to that. Those memories of being there just stays alive all the time. The Natural Beauty and may does calls it as the "Heaven on Earth". If you are a lover of Nature than this should be perfect choice for you.
While as the health rate ratio of being healthy in Switzerland is relatively higher compared to other countries. The average life span of People of Switzerland are as well higher. Overall living in Switzerland, each and every moment will be treasured in the memory lane of mine.
So yeah I will choose Switzerland to live if I ever get the chance to do so !

Hmmmm, there are alot of places I'd love to visit, but if I had to go to any country and live there then I'd have to choose Greece.
Why???
Because it's so rich in history and culture and I've always been in love with Greek mythology for as long as I can remember. I'd love to climb mount Olympus and see for myself if the Gods are still there, I want to visit the Delphi, maybe the oracle of Delphi will show herself and give me a prophecy about my future.
I'd love to visit the temple of Hephaestus, maybe I'll find something that Hephaestus made himself and maybe even get lost in the temple of Malia. Then on really hot days I could take a dip in the water at Balos or Psarou Beach.
There's just so many things to do in Greece and seeing as I love mythology I could never get bored of the place, living there would be a dream come true for me.

Clearly artificial intelligence will upset the world through its applications in different areas:
Autonomous Vehicles: Ford recently announced that they will have a 100% autonomous vehicle on the market by 2020.
Robotics: More and more jobs are at risk of being removed and replaced by robots such as front desk and reception jobs. The Pepper robot that uses IBM Watson technology, which can arguably be described as used in banking agencies in Japan, and more recently announced at RATP in France. For now, it's just a stammer.
Natural Language Processing: This will revolutionize our interactions with computer systems. No more need for screen, keyboard and mouse. The computer of the future will look more and more like Google Home or Amazon Echo, which I already find very good, even if they are just beginning.
IoT and Big Data: The Internet of Connected Objects is still in its infancy. More and more objects will be connected and will be able to relay a mass of information either to a human or to a control center for decision support, which itself could be automated. For example, if your car transmits real-time data on the level of vibration on your brakes. There may be a decision to notify your garage to check your brakes or even to stock the necessary parts when you come for your next maintenance (preventive maintenance) or decision making to immobilize the vehicle safely in real time before disaster. This already exists but will be done on vehicles in mass production. This applies from the car, through the trains to the dishwasher.
All this will pose interesting ethical problems: When an autonomous vehicle will have to make the decision to sacrifice its driver against the pedestrian who crosses in the event of an imminent accident, which decision is the good one?
