What would happen if we detonated a nuclear bomb on the Moon or Jupiter? | Nuclear explosion on the near side of the Moon: if you happen to be looking at the right spot with a telescope at the right time, you might see a tiny flash.
Nuclear explosion on the far side of the Moon: Nobody would ever notice anything.
Exploding all of humanity’s nuclear arsenal at once in the upper atmosphere of Jupiter: large telescopes, especially infrared telescopes, might see it if they are looking at the spot, but otherwise, it’d remain unnoticed.
Here is a short movie (I hope it comes across for all readers but if not, just follow the Wikipedia link) of an actual impact on Jupiter as fragments of [LINKED_TEXT: Comet Shoemaker–Levy 9] [URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comet_Shoemaker%E2%80%93Levy_9] hit the planet in 1994 (back then, in those innocent days before Internet porn, it caused the biggest Internet traffic spike to date.) Look for the flash in the lower left corner.
The fragments were maybe a kilometer or so across, impacting at 60 km/s. Assuming the same density as water, this would mean an impact energy, or explosion energy of over 400 megatons for an average fragment, possibly up to ten times more energy for the biggest. A 400 megaton explosion is about an order of magnitude bigger than the most powerful nuclear bomb in existence, or maybe about 2–3% of humanity’s total nuclear arsenal. The flash is prominent because these images were taken in infrared light. In visible light, very little would have been seen.

Have you ever found out your kid wasn’t yours by getting a paternity test? If so, what did you do and did you stay in the child’s life? | I have 7yrs full parental rights of my daughter Christin and I've been asked that question if she is my daughter. Her biological mother has not been there for her. I still do not see the need to put anyone of us under that extra pressure of a DNA test after already dealing with abandonment issues from her mother. Knowing the DNA results is as mysterious as the question of”does my mother love me or not”. No child ask to be here and not fair of woman doing that intentionally to men. I was confused before my daughter was born but when I first laid eyes on her I loved this child. That love cant be broken, for me. She will be 11yrs old this year and the thought of a test never crossed my mind since i first laid my eyes on her. You cant turn on a child because they came into this world and yes the mother was unfaithful to both men and her own child. All that child needs to make a success of their life is to know they are loved. If the child has been abandoned by the mother that child will need an unconditional love, I am giving that to Christin and I am a testament of blessings. Be angry with the mother, the child does not deserve to be abandoned again or at least by your choice.

Could Data pass the Kobayashi Maru in Star Trek? | That’s a tough question. Since it’s really designed to be a test of a person’s character, rather than actually just winning, I’m not sure Data would appreciate the subtle nuances of such a test. He would simply try to find the most logical answer. Which, might, indeed, turn out to be, that he recognizes that it is not winnable.

Why are the Kannadigas the least known among South Indians? | I have wondered about this question all my life. Being a Kannadiga and having lived in Maharashtra, Gujarat, Punjab and now in the US, I believe that I am in a fairly good position to answer this question. I have tried reading most of the answers and wont elaborate on the obvious but pardon me if its repetitive.
I think the single most important reason for this is the DIVERSITY that Karnataka has to offer. If India is the one of the most diverse country in the world then Karnataka is undoubtedly one of the most diverse states in India. It would not be completely wrong to say "Karnataka is like an India within India".
DIVERSITY
Karnataka can be broadly classified into four regions. 1) Mumbai Karnataka 2) Hyderabad Karnataka 3) Mysore/Bangalore Karnataka and 4) Mangalore Karnataka. Even though Kannada is the official and the most common language in all of these regions, it still has a lot of influence from other regional languages as well as languages from neighboring states.
1) Mumbai Karnataka
The most prominent cities in this region are Hubli-Dharwad and Belgaum. It is almost impossible to find anyone from this region who does not understand or speak Hindi. Both these places were also under the maratha empire and you can see a lot of Maratha influence in these places especially in Belgaum(now known as Belagaavi). In fact, even the Maratha Light Infantry regiment is located in Belgaum. Till a decade ago, people from these regions used to prefer cities like Mumbai or Pune to relocate over big cities in Karnataka like Bangalore or Mysore. Even if you look at the traditions followed here, these places are closer to Pune than Mysore/Mangalore. Even the Kannada spoken here is quite different from the one spoken in the southern parts of Karnataka. This place has also given us some of the most prominent singers like Bhimsen Joshi and Gangubai Hanagal(both Hindustani Classical singers). It is also a bastion for the Hindustani music rather than the more popular Karnatic music in the Bangalore and Mysore regions.
So when people from here move out of the state and meet other people, they would not easily associate themselves with Bangalore/Mysore because of the cultural differences. So the unity among the people is not as much as in the case of say Tamilians or Andhraites.
2) Hyderabad Karnataka
Its the same case with cities like Gulbarga, Bellary and Bidar where you can find a lot of influence from the bordering Andhra Pradesh. In Bellary, it is highly unusual to meet a person who doesn't understand Telugu. Though Kannada is the most commonly used language, it is not the only language people know.
3) Mangalore/Karavali Karnataka
The Kannada used in this region is by far the most grammatically and textually correct version of the beautiful language. People from this region speak impeccable Kannada with the least influence from English or Hindi. But even here, a large portion of the population uses Tulu instead of Kannada for all non-official usage. Konkani and Kodavi(in Kodugu) are also popular languages in this region.
4)Mysore region
This region does not face any competition from other languages. Kannada is the most spoken language here.Due to the proximity, I also include Bangalore in this region. Now most of the songs or movies made in Kannada cater mostly to this population.
The Problem and the Solution
This diversity leads to the problem of identification. Because of so many cultural, traditional and geographical differences among the regions, it is difficult for people to relate to one true identity of the state. This is also one of the most important reasons why our film industry is in this pathetic state. I can hardly remember a movie that catered to say the people of North Karnataka or was entirely in North-Kannada dialect. So the people from other regions don't feel the same "connect" that say a person from Tamil Nadu would feel after watching a Tamil movie.
But thankfully, the situation is improving now. People from Hubli/Belgaum or Mangalore prefer moving to Bangalore now instead of Mumbai due to the IT jobs and the development of Bangalore as a whole. The popularity of Kannada film industry can also be improved by incorporating actors and languages/slangs from other regions so that people from all these regions feel more connected to one true identity of the state.The identity of a Kannadiga.

ECB departing head Draghi insists that Germany and the Netherlands simply must spend more in the struggling EZ. What are the chances? | Not good.
Hyper Inflation looms large in the German pysche.
Sadly the Germans have been comprehensively lied to about the cause of German hyperinflation.
It was caused by the banks, not the government.
The banks loaned speculators money to short the Reichsmark.
And when I say “loaned” I mean “created”.
This wasn’t money that existed in bank accounts and was loaned out, the banks created the money out of thin air.
The government eventually stamped this out & the hyperinflation stopped but its the banks who caused it. Not expansionary fiscal policy by the government.
Now the Germans who run fiscal policy making don’t know this,
They have never been taught that banks create money. Its a bit of a well kept secret that’s actually been known within some circles for over a hundred years.
They think that expansionary fiscal policy IS THE WORK OF SATAN!
They think that running a deficit is SINFUL !
Germans aren’t big on debt. Even as recently as the Noughties I had a hard time using a credit card in many stores in Munich.
However, Government “debt” and household “debt” aren’t the same thing.
If your economy grows 2% you need 2% more money.
Which means issuing bonds to the tune of 2% of GDP.
Which is creating money, not borrowing it.
Yes, OK, in the ERM, as a member you are borrowing it, but the ECB aren’t borrowing it. They just create it.
The ERM complicates matters but Germany’s unwillingness to use expansionary fiscal policy is because they think the finances of a state are the same as a household.
Frankly, they are poorly informed and not fit to hold the positions they hold.

How have you, as a survivor of narcissistic abuse, detached yourself from the trauma bond that is formed as a result of the abuse? And how do you move on in everyday life? | I feel only partly qualified enough to answer this because I don't actually think I've detached from it, despite having thought I had, until yesterday.
Up to yesterday I was accomplishing, I've not spoken to him for 3 weeks or so and haven't seen him for 6 or 7 weeks. In that time I was boosting up and I was going back to myself. I was thinking about him less and less, some days not even at all.
I was asked out on a date by a bloke, he's a normal human, very intelligent, musical, talented, all kinds of other appealing things. He's quirky. I like quirk. He also has many mutual friends of mine and to a point I trust their judgement that he is as lovely as I've perceived him to be. I went out with him last night.
Up to arriving, I was fine. I've met this bloke before and actually went to school with him. When I got there and we started the night, I may as well have had my narc exes sat with us. I heard every word that my date said. But I heard it differently, with edge that wasn't there.
I had an affect on this man, he was very in to me and very much making it known, what I heard in my head was that I can't possibly be doing that because I'm not that special. How can he possibly like me? I'm not that beautiful. How can I keep up with the conversation with my crap qualifications? When he asked me questions that came up, things that I absolutely have no question about in my head, I couldn't answer, because I didn't trust my judgement enough to answer.
Truth be told I'm very flattered by this man's interest, but every ounce of me is rejecting it because of the abuse from narc.
How can it be that someone likes this worthless person? How can anyone take me seriously enough to respect me? How can I function without my narc to assist me in making decisions that I previously made for 36 years without his guidance?
How can my reality be this damn skewed?
Take time. When you believe the trauma bond is broken, just take that bit longer to heal. It's a tough one to repair as bandages and plasters don't work.

Why is there so little trash on the streets of Vancouver, British Columbia, relative to any other city, such as San Francisco? | I love BC and the main reason is BC does not let the homeless run the city and they enforce dumping trash on the streets. SF on the other hand has zero enforcement against homeless encampments, RV on the street being lived in, camping on the streets, underpasses, alleys and where ever you want. Drugs laws are also not enforced so we have druggies wandering around the streets either stoned or stealing anything they can get their hands on for the next fix.

What are the benefits of recumbent exercise bikes? | [LINKED_TEXT: Recumbent Bikes] [URL: https://www.lifespaneurope.com/collections/recumbent-bikes] offer several benefits compared to other types of exercise equipment. Here are some of the key advantages of using a recumbent exercise bike:
Comfortable and supportive seating: Recumbent bikes have a reclined position with a large, padded seat and a backrest. This design provides excellent support for your lower back and reduces strain on your joints, making them particularly suitable for individuals with back or joint problems.Reduced impact on joints: The recumbent position allows your body weight to be evenly distributed over a larger area, minimizing stress on your joints, especially the knees and ankles. This makes it an ideal choice for people with arthritis or those recovering from injuries.Cardiovascular workout: Like other types of stationary bikes, recumbent bikes provide an effective cardiovascular workout. Regular use can help improve heart and lung function, increase stamina, and enhance overall cardiovascular health.Lower risk of injury: Due to the supportive seating position and reduced impact on joints, recumbent bikes offer a lower risk of injury compared to high-impact exercises like running or jumping. This makes them suitable for people of all fitness levels, including beginners and those with physical limitations.Muscle toning and strength building: Recumbent bikes target various muscle groups, including the quadriceps, hamstrings, calves, glutes, and even the core muscles. Regular use can help tone and strengthen these muscles, leading to improved lower body strength and stability.Convenience and accessibility: Recumbent exercise bikes are typically compact and can be used in the comfort of your home. They are easily adjustable to accommodate different body sizes and fitness levels, and you can exercise at any time that suits your schedule, regardless of the weather conditions.Multi-tasking and entertainment: Recumbent bikes often come with features such as built-in workout programs, resistance levels, and digital displays that track your progress. Many models also have holders for tablets, allowing you to watch videos, read, or listen to music while exercising, making your workout more enjoyable and engaging.
It's worth noting that while recumbent exercise bikes offer many benefits, they may not provide the same intensity or calorie burn as some other forms of cardio exercise, such as running or cycling outdoors. However, they remain an excellent option for individuals seeking a low-impact workout with added comfort and support.

What are the best ways to invest money? | The best ways to invest money depend on your financial goals, risk tolerance, and time horizon.
Here are some common and proven investment options to consider:
Stocks: Investing in individual company stocks allows you to own a share of the company's ownership. Stocks have the potential for significant returns, but they also carry higher risks. Diversifying your stock portfolio is essential to reduce risk.Bonds: Bonds are debt securities issued by governments, municipalities, or corporations. They offer a fixed interest rate and are considered lower risk compared to stocks. Bonds are suitable for more conservative investors or those seeking income.Mutual Funds: Mutual funds pool money from multiple investors to invest in a diversified portfolio of stocks, bonds, or other assets. They are managed by professionals and offer built-in diversification.Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs): Similar to mutual funds, ETFs represent a basket of securities but are traded on stock exchanges like individual stocks. They offer diversification, low expense ratios, and can be bought and sold throughout the trading day.Real Estate: Investing in real estate can be through direct property ownership, Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs), or real estate crowdfunding platforms. Real estate can provide rental income and potential property appreciation.Retirement Accounts: Maximize contributions to tax-advantaged retirement accounts like 401(k)s or Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) to benefit from tax breaks and long-term growth.Peer-to-Peer Lending: Involves lending money to individuals or small businesses through online platforms, earning interest on the loans. Be aware that it carries higher default risks.Certificate of Deposit (CD): CDs are time deposits offered by banks with fixed interest rates and maturity dates. They are low-risk but have lower returns compared to other investments.Gold and Precious Metals: Investing in gold or precious metals can act as a hedge against inflation and economic uncertainties.Robo-Advisors: These automated investment platforms build and manage a diversified portfolio based on your risk tolerance and financial goals.
It's essential to diversify your investments to spread risk and match your investments but please becareful of scams and use platforms that have been around for awhile i personaly use [LINKED_TEXT: webul.com] [URL: https://www.webull.com.au/s/U1yauONioSXcr7pY3h]
Additionally
consider consulting with a financial advisor to create a personalized investment strategy that aligns with your unique circumstances.
Remember that all investments carry some level of risk, and it's important to do your research and understand each investment before committing your money.

Should I buy a PS Vita or an Xbox One? | I agree with the other answer that if you're gonna but a console get a ps4.
Reason to get a Xbox one…. You already have the pass cause you have an Xbox 360.
Reason to get a Vita. It's an awesome media player slash hand held.
However if you're paying that much you can easily afford a switch which has far better games. I hear vita still gets it on media playing but switch will have the new “Netflix's” soon as the big players sort themselves out. The one advantage I see is vita almost always fits in your pants.

Could Data pass the Kobayashi Maru in Star Trek? | As an artificial intelligence, Data from Star Trek: The Next Generation would be capable of analyzing the Kobayashi Maru scenario and formulating a strategy to handle the situation. However, as the Kobayashi Maru is specifically designed to be a no-win scenario, it is unlikely that Data, or any other Starfleet cadet, would be able to pass it without violating the rules of the simulation.
In the Star Trek universe, the purpose of the Kobayashi Maru is to test a cadet's character and decision-making abilities in the face of a situation that cannot be solved through conventional means. The scenario involves a civilian ship, the Kobayashi Maru, being stranded in enemy territory, and the cadet must make a choice between rescuing the ship and violating the Federation's neutrality or abandoning the ship and leaving the crew to their fate.
While Data's advanced computational abilities and lack of emotional bias may give him an edge in analyzing the situation and making the best decision, the outcome of the scenario is ultimately predetermined to be unwinnable. In Star Trek canon, only one person has ever "beaten" the Kobayashi Maru, and that was James T. Kirk, who famously reprogrammed the simulator to allow for a different outcome.
Therefore, while Data may be able to perform exceptionally well in the scenario and impress his instructors, it is unlikely that he would be able to pass the Kobayashi Maru without violating the rules of the simulation or reprogramming the simulator itself.

Why is Armenia so conservative? | You wrote directly your judgement. So this do not let anyone to write the contrary to you.
I may try to answer your question by another question: what makes you think so? And second question: You compare Armenia to which other country to make such a judgement / having a such mindset? Your answers to yourself will be the answer to your question.
Now let me say some things that can make you see things differently.
A country is not a block of marble, all country in the world are just mosaics: they are all composed of multitude of people having different ideas, traditions and way of life. I can not say to any country that it is entirely xyz. Because some people in this country are abc others in the same country are xyz etc.
Now on the other side, every countries`s government in the world, due to historical geographical and many other factor, may act and speak differently in time. That is normal. Some political actions and speechs are bad and some others are good and some others are semi good semi bad. Also a judgement of xxx as `bad` by person A, can be judged as `good` by B and `semi bad/semi good` by C. All 3 say some real/true things, and some unreal/lies. And some others may just express a hope, a dream/ a future strategy. So No one can say that any of them is right and the others are wrong. Read and listen to all the 3 opinions, and make a synthesis by yourself. The good thing in synthesis it makes a mixture of all and just leave some questions. That is a good way to see things. So analyse Armenia using this technic.
Just an additional tool to you for seeing that opinion of the same country may change in time too: An X country could have been conservative in its majority yesterday, but today they may become non-conservative in its majority. And tomorrow this may change into modernism and reformism or any other political tendency you can imagine. All are due to many internal and external factors.
As you can see it is way too much complex to get a judgement about a country. This may explain you why I wrote the first two question at the beginning of my actual writing.
Everything in this world should be seen like ying and yang: you may never judge with black and white but with grey.
If you want to know more about any country, so about Armenia, you might read from different source (because when someone talks about a country, there is always propaganda in each writing and speech). So you must read different propaganda writings (even scientists, political researchers, think tanks do propaganda in their writings; that is human nature) and listen the opinion of different political personalities.
I lived in Russia and in Kazakhstan about in total 5 years. I met some Armenians there. Communism tendency Armenians think completely different than conservative and modernist Armenians. They all see their country differently. This thing is valid for all the countries in the world.

Can you convert any register machine to some sort of automaton (like a deterministic finite state automaton)? If so, would there be any benefit to doing so? If not, why not? | I don’t understand the question. A register machine is a a deterministic finite state automaton. Maybe if you use more words to ask the question?
A register machine a lot of states, but all the parts are deterministic, and it will always do the same thing if it is in the same state.
If you wanted, you could build a Turing machine that would duplicate the functions of the register machine, only more slowly. It would have to keep the contents of the registers on its tape, as well as the contents of any main memory.

By what right did Sweden enter NATO without Russia's consent? | So I kinda think a lot of answers, while correct miss the most relevant point. Both Sweden and Finland are independent nations and have the absolute right to join and organization they wish including NATO.
A better question would be; by what right does Russia have to object to their joining? The answer is none whatsoever.

Why is the researcher the instrument in qualitative research? | Why is the researcher the instrument in qualitative research?
Ok qualitative is by its very nature based on not having a precise scale or point of reference.
The water is hot. Qualitative!
The water is 47.340 degrees Celsius. Quantitative!
Qualitative is your opinion, it is compared in your head to something else in your head.
“The joke is very funny”
Tell a joke to 100 people and ask them to describe how they would categorise the joke and you actually have 100 non comparable scales being used. Their replies are how they feel and you then have to interpret that information by comparing how you believe they they feel about the joke. However, you yourself are now comparing relative feelings based on your interpretations.
A machine cannot do that because it requires perception, machines measure they don't perceive.
Look up a 1960’s computer “composing” music randomly in real time. People actually did this and gave their opinion on this new and novel music. It sounded crap, there was no structure at all and it was not by even music by Jazz standards.
The point of all this ramblings that if you don't have a scale, a machine cannot give you an answer other than something random. You as a person can compare it to something you like and your qualitative perception is the only non scalar method of measuring it.

Why do some people like to stay in an abusive relationship? | [LINKED_TEXT: CLICK HERE TO DISCOVER WHAT MEN REALLY WANT WOMEN TO DO IN BED] [URL: https://danradinga.wixsite.com/whatmenwant]
Variety of reasons. I am answering from my own experience of an unhealthy and possibly abusive relationship.
children. The way the law in my country works I am pretty sure that if we split he would get 50per cent custody of my child at least. While I know that for a child to be in the home of an abusive relationship is damaging I fear that if we split and my partner had 50 percent custody of my child the situation would be worse. His father would become more bitter and angry which would affect my child. I would not be present to intervene when he got stressed and angry at my child. He would be emotionally manipulative and turn my child against me and my family. I have already seen how he manipulates my child and think it would be much worse if we separated. Some people will tell me that my child will realize when he is an adult. I am not confident about that and want to spare him from the stress of listening to his father say bad things about me. As I grew up in a family where my parents divorced I know that divorce (while it may be the best option for some) is not a magical solution that heals all problems and that when parents try to turn their child against each other it can be very upsetting and stressful for a child.
I am doing things to try to limit the damage to my child, eg visiting my brother and sister-in-law so my child can see a couple that has affection for each other.
you are manipulated by your partner into blaming yourself. One of my partner's favorite things to say to me during an argument is that I should have a long hard look at myself in the mirror. Every time that gets to me and I have doubts about myself. The emotional abuse I got from my partner was a major contributor, I believe, to me becoming mentally sick, although he tells me I brought it on myself. When he told me that I needed to see a psychologist, as a put-down, that was some of the best advice he gave me. When I followed the advice and saw a psychologist she gave me information about abusive relationships.isolation- they isolate you from friends and family who can tell you that the abusive persons expectations are not reasonable.the cycle of violence. I have seen other answers referring to this, using various names for it. You have a cycle where you have bad times, the abuser may apologize, they may act normal and then the abuse happens again. During a good time, you think maybe the bad times are over. You think “well people say there are good and bad times in a marriage”, you don't want to be a fairweather friend but want to be there through thick and thin, etc.religion and your marriage vow such as “for better or worse”.

The law and social welfare still make it very difficult financially to separate as does the cost of living and buying or renting a house.Fear or rumors and lies partner will spread about me in a small community and how that will affect employment. Sometimes mud sticksperhaps because my parents divorced I hadn’t had enough experience that a relationship could be better. I had also heard divorced and married women complaining about men but didn't hear a lot of positive comments about men so didn't have high expectations of men's behavior.
Also as Lori Jones wrote the more committed I became in my relationship or the more dependent I was on him the worse he was. He became worse the week we got married, worse when I became pregnant, worse when I had the baby, worse when we moved far away from my family and friends and I became mentally sick. Having a bit more financial dependence and better health now helps me to stand up more and feel better, as does getting some professional help.
As a side note, I hate it when I hear people commenting about all the divorces these days and that people don't try enough anymore. The people who say that should be grateful that they simply have no concept of what some people have been through and how hard they tried.

Have you ever found out your kid wasn’t yours by getting a paternity test? If so, what did you do and did you stay in the child’s life? | There was speculation with my BIL that one of his kids wasn’t biologically his. We pestered him about it for awhile and he put his foot down and said at the end of the day he was the only father his girl knew. He loved his kid and that was that. We didn’t bother him any more about a paternity test. They divorced a couple years later from her continued infidelity. She is miserable living in an apartment with the guy she cheated on while he is happily learning how to be a single father with shared custody.

I was speeding when a police car going the other way flashed his light bar at me. I slowed, but he just drove away. What just happened? | Probably already on a dispatched call, you went through the radar above the limit, so he flashed you to say “slow down.” He’s not going to stop you when he’s heading over to back another officer.

What made the Japanese think that kamikaze was a good idea? | In an insane sort of way, it kind of was a logical idea.
Japanese pilots were so poorly trained at this point (due to high losses, lack of fuel/aircraft for training) and American defenses strong (combat air patrol, ship screen deployment, proximity fuse anti-air fire) that it was unlikely they were going to score many hits. It’s also in a way, a waste of resources to train them super well just due to the superior American planes and pilots. They’re just too likely to die in a regular dogfight.
Let’s say they can drop a bomb and hit a ship 8% of the time- even if they hit it’s possible Americans can control the damage. It’s also highly probable a pursuing fighter or some AA fire will take out the Japanese plane as it leaves. If they fly in and crash the plane directly into a ship- it doesn’t really matter if they take a hit on the way down or not. Let’s say 25% of these kamikaze runs are successful- that’s more than three times as effective and the aviation. fuel combined with ordinance carried would do a lot more damage than the bombs alone.
Military History Visualized makes a great video on how it was “rational” for them to do this.

What’s your best advice for a 17-year-old turning 18? | Here are some of my advice to 17-year-old girl who is just growing and glowing day by day just like the beautiful flowers .
Dear girl,
You are being beautiful day by day.But trust me being beautiful is not only everything. You are getting nearer and nearer to your responsibilities to. Don't ruin your life in all those clubbing and partying everyday until the time you have money.
Whatever your parents say,please don't get mad at them. They have raised you up and surely they do care about you. But in those thoughts never let yourself down.You must know to balance the parents advice and your thoughts.
If you have feelings for somebody, please do confess otherwise it might gets late. But be sure you are not totally crazy about the person so that you should not loose your goals.
Chase your dreams and believe in your potentials.Believe in yourself and positivity must be always with you.
Feel free to talk and never hold your words back as if there arrives the matter that you must clarify. Just go for it.
Learn that it's okay to open-up with someone about what you are feeling, just don't deal alone with all your problems, anxiety and depressions. It's okay to take help from others.
Never mind what judgemental society and people tells you. Don't let their judgement Confined you.
Never give up is something I would definitely choose to advice you.
Never feel low just because you are not beautiful than the next girl you visited in your college canteen, you are your own kind of beautiful.
Never allow yourself to be addicted to drugs and drinks though your friends are requesting you so hard.Just don't do that.
Give more time to yourself than others. Do everything that you actually love and that are actually right to do. Work on yourself for yourself.

The main thing you must know is if you are not for yourself, then who Will be?
Remember ♥️♥️

What are some rookie mistakes in running? | The most common mistake I see is over-striding. It’s like putting the brake on slightly with every step. If you ever get over and on top of your stride, then you go, ‘oh wow, I was slowing myself down’. It’s not easy to break the braking habit. People say lift your knees, up your cadence, be light on your feet, land on your forefoot (and let the heel come down as a tap), toe off properly, snap your foot back so you have to snap it forward, etc. But if you can’t get there in your head, you aren’t there, are you? Or as the old camp song says, ‘we’re here because we’re here because we’re here because we’re here!’ You gotta get there from here. Lots of people seem to think that jamming their foot into the ground - with those cushioned, angled heels, is how you’re supposed to land. Uh, no. If you land with your foot extended in front of you, you’re planting a lever, sort of like a miniature pole vault pole that your hips and knees have to come over. Causes all sorts of problems as you increase mileage.

Is there something about Palestinian culture that makes them unable to let go of the past in order to achieve peace? | “Is there something about Palestinian culture that makes them unable to let go of the past in order to achieve peace?”
Palestinians are people. People often find it difficult to let go of the past.
In the case of the Palestinians, they also have the misfortune of leaders who have gotten rich from the conflict, and therefore have every incentive to keep it going. These leaders also have a reputation for brutality and not tolerating dissent in any form.
As a result, Fatah rules the Palestinian areas of the West Bank with an iron hand, and hasn’t held elections since 2005. Hamas was elected to a four-year term in 2006, and hasn’t held elections since then either.
Perhaps one day there will be a strong Palestinian leader more interested in a bright future than in rehashing the past. I certainly hope so.

Does India have the weapon systems to do what the USA did with Osama with the JeM chief? | If you had seen the movie Zero Dark Thirty you will get a brief idea the extensive planning and research that had gone into tracking and assasinating OBL. However there is a differencr between OBL and Masood. OBL was internationally designated terrorist and was into hiding while this Masood guy is roaming freely in Pakistan gives speeches etc. So assasinating him should be relatively easy. However it was Mr IK Gujral who shut down all the counter spying wing of R&AW during his tenure and I think we are still struggling from that. This shows we are not having proper resources and assets inside the enemy territory. We should have emulated Israeli model of assasinating enemies deep inside enemy territories like KIDON units of Israel. Both the above examples do not use any specialized weapon but rely on local human resources to achieve objectives.

Why does the US keep their most valuable prisoners at Guantanamo Bay, where it is very close and vulnerable to Cuban forces, instead of in the US mainland? | The reason prisoners were sent to Guantanamo Bay was to bypass the American legal system. Dubya Bush and his cabal of Dick Cheney, Rummy Rumsfield, Colin Powell, and Condeliza Rice, all voted for torture. So some of the countries where the CIA were operating black sites like Poland and Germany started getting “cold feet” and wanted the sites closed. Others, like Egypt were experiencing political unrest so the CIA’s activities were being curtailed. So Guantanamo Bay was chosen. Here the prisoners had neither legal, or human rights. They could be, and were, tortured. They could even be murdered. Who knows? Maybe some were murdered. Some of those they were holding there wasn’t even who the CIA thought they were. When you’re operating under a condition of no restraints bad things can and often do happen.

What is your favorite sci-fi book series, and why? | I have a knack for checking out so-called “indie” books that aren’t quite popular yet.

Did a landlord ever offer to lower your rent so that you wouldn't leave? | My last landlord was not my most favorite person in the world and we disagreed about many things especially when it came to getting things repaired (he liked duct tape and band aids while I liked things acutely fixed.) He had a very aggressive contract that I reluctantly agreed to and I kept to the letter of the contract. As the contract was coming to termination he sent us notification that the rent would be increasing by some insane amount (I think it was between $600 - $900 a month) we politely declined to renew. We asked if he would allow us to extend the current contract for a month so our kids could finish the school year but he was adamant that we be out of the house by a certain date and we agreed. ( I had to relocate my 8 month pregnant wife and our children out of state while we waited for our offer to close on the new home we were buying.)
Then he ran into a problem. No one wanted to rent the place at the price he was asking or would agree to his insane contract terms (i.e he wanted family pictures so he could give them to the police if needed.) A week before our contract expired he contacted me and asked if I wanted to continue renting the house at the existing rate. I laughed and thanked him for his call and informed him we were just wrapping up the last few items prior to the final inspection. When he and his wife arrived for the inspection they were surprised at how nice we maintained the house. He tried again, now that the house was completely empty and spotless, to get me to reconsider the lease at the original rate and I declined. A month or so later we found out he hid our trash cans that were supposed to be picked up by trash removal company so I had to go back to the new tenants and help them understand that trash cans they were using didn’t belong to the land lord and they needed to return them to Waste Management. So just keep in mind if your landlord is offering you a lower rate to stay chance are it’s because they are having difficulties not because they are trying to be kind.

Could Data pass the Kobayashi Maru in Star Trek? | The Kobayashi Maru simulation isn’t a test to be “passed.” It’s a learning experience for people to learn to face their fears and to understand that there are unwinnable scenarios.
Data is a machine. He has no fears unless he chooses to activate his emotion chip. Even then, they are simulated fears that he can shut off. You and I cannot shut off adrenaline pumping through our veins, making our hearts beat faster.
The only one who really “passed” the test, as far as I’m concerned, is Sulu. He got the distress call from the Kobayashi Maru, realized it was on the other side of the neutral zone, and said, “Nope! We can’t cross the neutral zone.”
After all, the Kobayashi Maru simulation is a hypothetical attempt by Romulans to sucker a Federation Starship into a compromising position, blow it up, and claim the whole thing as a pretext for war.
Sulu was having none of that.

Why are HDMI cords so expensive? | They’re not expensive. In fact, they’re downright cheap! Digital, low voltage differential signals either get there, or they don’t… these are much cheaper to make than analog cables, which can gradually degrade your signal.
Oh, wait, you’re buying them here? At the Big Box store where you’re probably buying a television? Shame on you!
Fact is, there is nearly perfect competition in the electronics business. In a minute or two, I can find out exactly how much I should be paying for that new 4K television I’ve had my eye on (hmm… about a grand… it’s been dropping in price!). Your local big box store can’t get away with charging significantly more than an online retailer would charge.
But when you buy that TV, you’re going to be anxious to hook it up, maybe add a few accessories. And that’s why these prices are so high. Some stores will make significantly more money on accessories in the typical sale than they make on the main item. And that’s because you’re not paying attention to the price of the accessories… you just dropped a grand or more on that new TV. You’re probably not thinking that you can get the same cable online, in a day or two, for $5 rather than $40.
This is actually part of a general sales model these days. Even in Wal-Mart. When you got to a Wal-Mart, there are big signs telling you how much you’re saving on various items. The Wal-Mart people have been studying buying habits in thousands of stores, and they know which items are price sensitive and which are more likely impulse buys.
One example: books. Okay, sure, who both shops at Wal-Mart and reads? But seriously… years back, around the time I got my first Android phone, my wife wanted to shop for a few things in a Wal-Mart. I was testing out the new barcode app, which scanned a barcode and gave me a bunch of prices and locations for the item. I was amazed that every book at Wal-Mart was full list price, significantly more expensive than Amazon. Because, of course, no one goes to Wal-Mart to buy a book… but if you see a book while passing the book section, you might just grab it, without price shopping. Or an HDMI cable.

Whats the craziest thing that's happened to you at work? | Back in 1977–78, I was working for a record album warehouse. The company was having some financial difficulties, and the vendors required cash payment. It was common for the warehouse boss to hand me the company van keys and a check in an envelope, and ask me to go to the bank and trade it for cash. The boss could then give the cash to the vendor.
Checks were usually between $200 -500 dollars - no worries. Stuff it in my pocket and go back to work.
One time, the teller looks at the check, and looks at me. She looks at the check and looks at me. She calls for her boss. She looks at the check and looks at me. She then has a hushed phone call, I guessed to my employer.
I didn’t take this stuff as an insult. I was working in an un-cooled warehouse in the deep south, and I was a pretty shabby dresser at the time.
The teller returns and pushes THIRTY-EIGHT THOUSAND DOLLARS across the counter to me. I nearly fainted.
In 2019 dollars, that is over $160,000!
The teller looks at me and asks “would you like a bag for that?”
Uhhhh… “yes.”
I was so nervous getting back to the warehouse!

I’m moving with my cats from a very stressful home, & they use their cat trees for comfort now. Should I keep these ones for familiarity and comfort, or do you think it would be better to start over with new scents and leave all the old ones behind? | When I adopted Juno, she came from a very stressful home—energetic dog, aggressive cat, toddler. She was used ro hiding behind furniture, and slept in a plastic bin with a towel in the bottom, probably because the high sides afforded her some protection. She was shy and scared and when she got to my house she hid for days and days.
When she finally came out, she kept her old box as a home base. When she wanted to sleep in the bedroom with me and the other cat, I moved the box into my bedroom and she slept in that every night. It was her one place of comfort, that smelled familiar and made her feel safe.
Bring the trees with you. Cats often need familar smells to adapt to a new home. As they become confident in their new territory they'll have the option of avoiding the cat trees if they no longer need them.
Rigt now, thats their only territory.

Why are there different systems of money transfer like RTGS, NEFT and IMPS? | National Electronic Funds Transfer (NEFT)
Once you opt for this transfer, the amount is not immediately transferred, but is done in the next settlement cycle. NEFT has settlement cycles running through the day.
If the transfer is initiated beyond the cut-off time specified by RBI, the funds are typically settled on the next working day.

Why are expensive private middle and high schools worth it? I guess a 1:6 teacher to student ratio is pretty good, but are the teachers better at teaching or is it just something that the affluent can brag about? | The number one reason why private schools are “better” are the admission requirements. If you don’t measure up- to a certain minimum, you can’t attend. When you then take averages of the kids using whatever metric you choose, the average of the school that takes the average to good students will be much higher than that of the one that takes lousy to good students. The private schools pick and choose while the public schools are required to take anyone who lives in the local area, no matter their abilities or disabilities.
Charter schools play this game all the time. The student that applies for a lottery is by nature a better student than the one who doesn’t care. Will a lazy student attend a charter that requires 8–5 classes, or Saturday classes, or the constant pressures of a place like KIPP? If a student doesn’t measure up at a charter, they are encouraged to switch back before they affect averages or graduation percentages.
Second, the tuition and the ability to expel. Again, better students make for better averages. If you’ve let go students who don’t work hard enough, or who do stupid things, your “scores” go up.
If a family is mostly well-educated, it usually means that they are also willing to put effort into the things that make up education. If every role model is motivated, educated, willing to work 3 hours a night on homework, then the student probably will too.
Selection comes up again with out-of-town students. Public school draws from the local area, good or bad. Private schools draw the best students from a much larger area, and often from out-of-country. If you’re sending a child 12,000 miles and prepaying all tuition/fees/room/board, you’re not sending a dummy.
The final reason is that private schools don’t get scored on the same metric as public ones do. A public school is made or broken on the same scale and criteria, while the private school will hire a PR company to showcase them at their best. We have this in Vermont. The public schools use one set of testing, while the private academies may trot out their SAT results or their AP results, conveniently forgetting to mention that 1/2 of their senior class is from other countries, and are re-taking calculus to get the AP credit and learn some English. Maybe the private school talks only about its endowment, or has pictures of its beautiful campus.
Here in Vermont, there are four private schools that are also the local public school. Their students take the same standardized tests, but the private schools don’t have to make bad results public.

Have you ever found out your kid wasn’t yours by getting a paternity test?

Anyway she would do things with me just like the rest of the group and the rest of the group wanted to set me up with this woman knowing it was one of my dreams to start my own family, unfortunately they wanted to mess with me by making this dream a nightmare and forcing me to take care of a child that wasn't mine yet claimed it was. Anyway it was exposed to me that the child wasn’t mine and the whole time it was a setup to get me to learn some lesson what did i do check the news

In East Asia, there is strong desire of having son which can be attributed to above these factors. It has resulted in gender imbalance in East Asia especially China and India.
In East Asia, there is strong desire to not have many daughter which again can be attributed to these factors. In India it has led to female foeticide , female infanticide , dowry violence , less education among women , zero control over their own life , forced marriage etc. In China , it led to left over women as if women are bread which are not fit for consumption.
Family honor leads to honor killing of women in Indian Subcontinent.
In India , social conformity has led to domestic violence as women can't divorce, mental health issue with men as they can't divorce, caste based marriage as parents have to confirm with society, student has to be doctor or engineer to confirm with society.
So please let me know what good is coming out of these factors.

How difficult was it for you to find your life purpose? | You don’t “find your life purpose”, but you can create a purpose for your life.
To figure out a purpose for your life that you want to devote yourself to, you need to know what you find meaningful.
A true purpose is only sustainable as long as it is meaningful to you, because this is the only way to achieve fulfillment.
Holocaust survivor and psychiatrist Viktor E. Frankl spent his life helping others to create meaning in their lives.
The Sources of Meaning
There are three main sources from which a person can create meaning in life.
1. Doing something significant (work, good deeds, accomplishments):
Meaning can be found in doing something that we consider important and of value, something that improves the lives of others or of humanity as a whole. This is of course very subjective, but you will know deep down if you deem this work as significant and fulfilling.
2. By experiencing something or encountering someone (love, beauty, nature):
Experiencing nature, beauty, culture etc. can result in a feeling of awe and give meaning to life.
Also love can create meaning, because only through love, one can “grasp another human being in the innermost core of his personality.” Frankl explains as follows:
“By his love he is enabled to see the essential traits and features in the beloved person; and even more, he sees that which is potential in him, which is not yet actualized but yet ought to be actualized. Furthermore, by his love, the loving person enables the beloved person to actualize these potentialities. By making him aware of what he can be and of what he should become, he makes these potentialities come true.”
3. By our attitude in times of adversity (suffering, guilt, death):
Meaning can be found even in spite of the “tragic triad”: I) suffering, II) guilt and III) death, through what Frankl calls “tragic optimism”:
“(I) Turning suffering into a human achievement and accomplishment, because in some way, suffering ceases to be suffering at the moment it finds a meaning, such as the meaning of a sacrifice.
(II) Deriving from guilt the opportunity to change oneself for the better.
(III) Deriving from life’s transitoriness an incentive to take responsible action.”
In general, Frankl suggests the following:
“Ultimately, man should not ask what the meaning of his life is, but rather he must recognize that it is he who is asked. In a word, each man is questioned by life; and he can only answer to life by answering for his own life; to life he can only respond by being responsible. ”
Meaning exists as potential. By taking on responsibility this meaning can and should be actualized.
But most importantly, the three sources of meaning all have one thing in common.
The idea of self-transcendence.
Frankl describes the relationship between self-actualization and self-transcendence as follows:
I have termed this constitutive characteristic “the self-transcendence of human existence.” It denotes the fact that being human always points, and is directed, to something, or someone, other than oneself — be it a meaning to fulfill or another human being to encounter. The more one forgets himself — by giving himself to a cause to serve or another person to love — the more human he is and the more he actualizes himself. What is called self-actualization is not an attainable aim at all, for the simple reason that the more one would strive for it, the more he would miss it. In other words, self-actualization is possible only as a side-effect of self-transcendence.
This has profound consequences for our understanding of the hierarchy of human needs.
The ultimate source of meaning and fulfillment and thus the top of the pyramid is self-transcendence.
In “Father Reaches of Human Nature” Abraham Maslow explains:
“Transcendence refers to the very highest and most inclusive or holistic levels of human consciousness, behaving and relating, as ends rather than means, to oneself, to significant others, to human beings in general, to other species, to nature, and to the cosmos”
So how do you create a life purpose?
Gaining clarity about yourself, what matters most to you and what would be meaningful to you.
How do you figure out?
Well, by asking yourself the right questions and thinking about them. These questions might be something like:
“What do I value?”,
“What am I good at?”,
“What interests me?”,
“Where do I find meaning?”,
“What are the things I want to do before I die?”,
“What do I want others to say about me at my funeral?”
“What value do I want to contribute back to the world”?
In our busy, hectic daily lives it is often difficult to find the time to think about questions like these. So you inevitably have to make time for them. A good way is to create a commitment by blocking a time slot in your calendar, say one hour every Sunday, just for pondering these questions and thinking.
As soon as you get some clarity about these questions (full clarity does not have to be achieved yet), you can establish some kind of long-term vision of how you want your life to look like in the distant future and principles/values you want to live by.
Then, take action. Try different career lanes and different projects and see if you resonate with them.
Make sure to regularly reflect on these questions and if your current live situations do satisfy them.
[LINKED_TEXT: [1]] [URL: #DlFFe] Creating a meaningful purpose for your life is a long-term project. Take it one step at a time by gaining more clarity about yourself and then trying different options.
Do you struggle with creating a meaningful purpose? Is there something that is holding you back at the moment?

New theory: in Endgame, could Tony Stark have given Steve Rogers a metal shield (instead of vibranium) before the final battle since he is still a little mad at him? Could that be why Thanos broke it so easily? | I guess when you made this theory you forgot that prior to the fight with Thanos Cap faced off with his 2012 self and their shields hit each other.. and then you also forgot that Vibranium is not indestructible, Thanos crushed visions head when he ripped out the mind stone. not forgetting the wakadans ships that we have seen get blown up and destroyed. and Lastly prior to the time heist Cap and Tony made up so it would make no sense at all for Tony to give Cap a fake shield, besides even if he did, Cap would know as Vibranium is lighter. and it would be dumb for Cap not to feel the difference when he has had that shield for a very long time.

How many gun owners have actually stopped a crime from being committed by using a gun? | This question has been floating around Quora for at least 5 years, and as such things do, it sometimes floats to the top, with its accompanying stink.
The truth is, this just cannot be known. Folks who use a firearm to resolve a potentially criminal situation without firing the gun, seldom report the incident, for fear of unexpected, negative repercussions. I know of a couple of potentially criminal incidents that were ended without the firearm even being presented. The stalkers (can’t call them attackers at this point) were simply made aware of the presence of a firearm. This is just as surely a defensive gun use, as actually presenting the weapon.
Since these events never get reported, how can we quantify them? This topic has interested researchers enough that many went to great expense to conduct polls. Surely not the most reliable measure, but just as surely, the only possible way get a sense of just how often firearms are used to stop crime.
One poll would not be very revealing, but multiple polls could give us a reasonably accurate sense of the question… the more the better. As it happens we actually do have quite a number of polls asking just this question…
Examining the graph, we can see that the most conservative average is, that firearms are used to stop crime about 1.4 million times per year, or almost 5 times as often as firearms are used to commit crimes.
Edit 230221: I ran a across recent pertinent information I would like to include. In 2021, Professor William English Conducted the 2021, National Firearms Survey, the most comprehensive ever research on firearms in America, which was published in 2022 by, Georgetown University McDonough School of Business. Unsurprisingly Professor English’s findings were consistent with the above graph…
Consistent with other recent survey research, the survey finds an overall rate of adult firearm ownership of 31.9%, suggesting that in excess of 81.4 million Americans aged 18 and over own firearms. The survey further finds that approximately a third of gun owners (31.1%) have used a firearm to defend themselves or their property, often on more than one occasion, and it estimates that guns are used defensively by firearms owners in approximately 1.67 million incidents per year. Handguns are the most common firearm employed for self-defense (used in 65.9% of defensive incidents), and in most defensive incidents (81.9%) no shot was fired. Approximately a quarter (25.2%) of defensive incidents occurred within the gun owner's home, and approximately half (53.9%) occurred outside their home, but on their property. About one out of ten (9.1%) defensive gun uses occurred in public, and about one out of twenty (4.8%) occurred at work.
[LINKED_TEXT: 2021 National Firearms SurveyAbstract This report summarizes the findings of a national survey of firearms ownership and use conducted between February 17th and March 23rd, 2021 by the professional survey firm Centiment. This survey, which is part of a larger book project, aims to provide the most comprehensive assessment of firearms ownership and use patterns in America to date. This online survey was administered to a representative sample of approximately fifty-four thousand U.S. residents aged 18 and over, and it identified 16,708 gun owners who were, in turn, asked in-depth questions about their ownership and their use of firearms, including defensive uses of firearms. Consistent with other recent survey research, the survey finds an overall rate of adult firearm ownership of 31.9%, suggesting that in excess of 81.4 million Americans aged 18 and over own firearms. The survey further finds that approximately a third of gun owners (31.1%) have used a firearm to defend themselves or their property, often on more than one occasion, and it estimates that guns are used defensively by firearms owners in approximately 1.67 million incidents per year. Handguns are the most common firearm employed for self-defense (used in 65.9% of defensive incidents), and in most defensive incidents (81.9%) no shot was fired. Approximately a quarter (25.2%) of defensive incidents occurred within the gun owner's home, and approximately half (53.9%) occurred outside their home, but on their property. About one out of ten (9.1%) defensive gun uses occurred in public, and about one out of twenty (4.8%) occurred at work. A majority of gun owners (56.2%) indicate that they carry a handgun for self-defense in at least some circumstances, and about 35% of gun owners report carrying a handgun with some frequency. We estimate that approximately 20.7 million gun owners (26.3%) carry a handgun in public under a ``concealed carry'' regime; and 34.9% of gun owners report that there have been instances in which they had wanted to carry a handgun for self-defense, but local rules did not allow them to carry. The average gun owner owns 5 firearms, and handguns are the most common type of firearm owned. 48.0% of gun owners have owned magazines that hold over 10 rounds, and 30.2% of gun owners -- totaling about 24.6 million individuals -- have owned an AR-15 or similarly styled rifle. Demographically, gun owners are diverse. 42.2% are female and 57.8% are male. Approximately 25.4% of Blacks own firearms, 28.3% of Hispanics own firearms, 19.4% of Asians own firearms, and 34.3% of Whites own firearms.https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3887145#] [URL: https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3887145] |

Is it safe to apply aloe vera gel on the face overnight? | Aloe vera gel is generally considered safe to use on the face overnight, but it's always a good idea to patch test a small area first to make sure you don't have an allergic reaction. Aloe vera gel is known for its hydrating and soothing properties, which can help to calm irritated skin and reduce inflammation.
If you have sensitive skin, you may want to dilute the aloe vera gel with water before applying it to your face, or look for a product that contains a lower concentration of aloe vera. Additionally, if you're using a store-bought aloe vera gel, make sure to check the ingredients list to ensure that there are no added irritants or chemicals that could potentially harm your skin.
It's important to note that while aloe vera gel is generally safe to use on the face, it's not a cure-all for all skin concerns, and you should always consult with a dermatologist if you have any persistent skin issues or concerns.

What are the qualities of a successful leader? | A ‘good leader’ in what area of life?
A good leader in war is one that can mislead a group of people to believe that the greater good over-rules individual good for both sides. The leaders soldiers should be willing to die and they should be willing to kill.
A good leader in business (for the business owner) finds the top 20% of performers and fires the lower 80%.
A good leader in religion is able to create a belief among followers that they are weak and unworthy - but have a sliver of hope if they have faith in what that religion teaches.
A good leader in education (for the institution) produces the largest possible financial gain for their organization under the guise that degrees are what makes the world go around.
A good leader in government (for one party) is the one that can hold power even when they only have a minority support.
A good leader on a hike is one who can read the limitations of people in their group in order to keep them safe while providing a great experience.
A good leader as a Human Being is a person that sees each person for the perfection that they are. They create the space for people to become their personal best.
We can choose to be led by the needs and greed of government, religion, education or business or we can choose to follow our own gut instinct that we are all born with.
‘Good’ leaders are defined by the number of followers but that doesn’t speak about the quality of the followers.
Is there such a thing as a good follower - beyond the reverse definition of each class of good leader?
For example a good follower in war is prepared to kill and to die.
For a person that becomes their personal best, are they a follower or have they become a leader in their own right?
In that case a good leader is one who expands and strengthens diversity of leadership.
It could be argued that a follower in war is a leader of sorts. The question is whether war is natural or unnatural. For the answer we look at nature. Does war exist in nature where tribes of a species seek to kill each other? That is unnatural. it doesn’t exist. So with war being an activity that goes against nature, so to, the leaders and followers are engaged in an unnatural activity that is allowed through free will.
The real question could be what makes a good leader bad or good?

Is Bangladesh more powerful and prosperous than Pakistan? | Pakistanis will say Pakistan is better than Bangladeshis, and Bangladeshis will state Bangladesh is better than Pakistan. Many Pakistanis here are cherry picking bad pictures of Bangladesh and good ones of Pakistan. Forgetting that both nations have different demographics and people plus the land area and density.
Truth: Bangladesh has better economy than Pakistan, better currency than Pakistan. Pakistan’s infrastructure may slightly be better than Bangladesh’s because while Bangladesh was part of West Pakistan, they looted the resources and used it to modernize West Pakistan, not the East. After independence Bangladesh had to build itself from the scratch. Pakistan gained independence 72 years ago; while Bangladesh gained independence 48 years ago. There has been a drastic improvements in Bangladesh since then; while there are many internal tensions in Pakistan. Bangladesh as a nation is under construction. So one can’t assume which is better and which isn’t. Both countries are at different level. Bangladesh and Pakistan has their own good sides and bad sides. Only the ultra nationalists will show the good side of their own and the bad side of other nation.
For couple of years now Pakistan is doing really bad, their currency has taken a dip and their entire Nominal GDP is reducing or in stagnant position. On top of the debts of Pakistan covers a huge chuck of their entire GDP , hence little money left to spend on social welfare. Plus, the inflation rate is high hence the value of PKR is going down, which is taking effects on their GDP. On the other hand, Bangladesh managed to handle it’s money properly, stable inflation and less external debts.
Down Below are the stats of each country:
Pakistan
Area: 881,913 km²
Population Density: 255.3 people per square kilometer (661.1/mi2)
Bangladesh
Area: 147,570 km²
Population Density: 1,115.62 per square kilometer,(2,889.45/square mile),
Pakistan currency is lot weaker than Bangladesh. Pakistani Rupee is in a free fall. You can see below:
Bangladesh maintains highest gender equality in South Asia , ranking 48th. Way ahead of India as well. Bangladesh government promotes gender equality and encourages women to join the workforce alongside men.
Bangladesh government spent its money on social welfare such as on building better infrastructure and providing good education. Even in the Literacy rate Bangladesh is higher; Bangladesh: 73% and Pakistan: 58%. This way people, regardless of gender and class, can get their education and help to move the wheel of Bangladesh’s economy.
Bangladesh’s population was higher than Pakistan, but now you can look below:
Pakistan population: 216 million (2019)
Bangladesh population: 163 million (2019)
So to those Pakistanis, who is busy saying progress in Bangladesh isn’t as significant and all that let me tell you sincerely that Bangladesh introduced birth control methods as early as 1980s, within few years after independence. Population of Bangladesh and Pakistan in 1970 were:
Bangladesh has fewer population than Pakistan + life expectancy rate is higher + lower fertility rate than of Pakistan. So admit it, that even after being independent for 70 years, you guys aren’t doing so well. Whereas Bangladesh who gained Independence from Pakistan 48 years ago doing so well.
Life Expectancy Pakistan: 67.79 years (2019)
Life Expectancy Bangladesh: 73.57 years (2019)
Coming to natural beauties of each countries. Both has their beautiful places. That’s something not to brag about, its all made by the mother nature and not by the people themselves. So it is better to respect the nature regardless where it is located. Here are some beautiful places of both nations.
Pakistan:
Naltar valley
Neelum Valley, Azad Kashmir
Gojal Valley
Bangladesh:
Jaflong, Sylhet.
Saint Martin Island, Bangladesh
Srimangal tea garden
Lalakhal
Bisnakandhi
Cox’s Bazar, world’s longest unbroken sea beach
Anyway, I hope this helps. No hate to neither of the nations.
Peace out! ✌
