Cryptocurrency possibility...

Pearl Rosa @pearlrosa (139) • United States 6 May 18

I've seen a lot about cryptocurrencies especially bitcoin. You can mine or buy the cryptocurrencies then exchange them for money. But I haven't seen where they are actually accepted. Sometimes I wonder if they are actually some...

Mike Ang Mining - is not so practical nowadays compared to earlier days, like 1.5 years back or before. Nowadays those who want to mine, join or buy a contracted period of mining with pooled mining or similar but there is no guaranteed gains. Accepted?- if you want to...

What do you think of people begging on social media?

AbbyGreenhill @AbbyGreenhill (45494) • United States 4 Aug 16

I am getting fed up with some people - people who I have 'friended' over the years, none of whom I know personally, begging for money. One couple is having a hard time financially for a few years now, but begging for money...

Mike Ang Abby I agree with those who are quite put off; to put it mildly , by people who ask for money in any situation . Many a times people do that due to their background in most instances. So to carry on that practice of asking for money online is natural to such...

Mike Ang I once read that melatonin is caused to be produced if we get enough sunlight. So it is great that you mentioned the use of melatonin. From what I have read, then why not just make sure you get enough sunlight and that would help you sleep better.

Carpe diem!

paopaolar @paopaolar (226) • Philippines 5 Apr 11

Have you heard of the expression "carpe diem"? It's a French word for "seize the day". It has a connection with the idea that life is nasty, brutish, short, and solitary and therefore you must seize every day. In short, live life...

Mike Ang I love what you said about this phrase "carpe diem", especially you just reminded me of holidays and be present each " here and now". It helps my memory some when I can take a photo at those times.

complex or complicated?

symontimea @symontimea (842) • Romania 26 Jan 07

The use of the term complex is often confused with the term complicated. To understand the differences, it is best to examine the roots of the two words. “Complicated” uses the Latin ending “plic” that means, “to fold” while...

Mike Ang Thank you for clarification, it put a new strand through words I thought I new. Now I discover anew.
