- If you’re open about it, maybe you can take a look into Phenibut — it’s somewhere between alcohol and lightweight MDMA in terms of disinhibition effects. It can help tremendously in the context of aiding progressive exposure. Do you own research, though: it can get into slippery slope fairly quickly.
- > Bulgaria pegging to the DM in 1997 meant anchoring to a much harder currency than what the euro has become.
Look, it seems you have beef with Bulgaria adopting the euro based on your other comments, but matter of fact is that many people remember the hyperinflation and the Videnov winter — especially older people that were queuing for bread with all of their lifetime savings disappearing overnight. Hence, the board staying almost 30 years. What’s scary for many is that the board in its current form is just a law that can be removed with simple majority, e.g. the current stable state could be made obsolete in a matter of a weekend — with devastating consequences for the economy. Adopting the euro means tighter integration with EU only and it’s mostly irrevocable … sadly for Russia and its proxies over here.

- It depends. BMW has history in introducing similar innovative models, e.g. BMW Isetta from 1955.
- I agree. Honestly, I’m proficient with vim/emacs, but I’ve been using JetBrains for ~13 years and don’t want to sound boastful, but I’m pretty sure I’ll run circles around non-trivial amount of vim users in terms of productivity/efficiency/raw text editing. The amount of time I’ve put in customizing my workflow is stupid. The false dichotomy that if you use IDE you must be point-clicking around menus is often repeated. I guess … know your tool of choice inside-out is what’s more important.
- You'll be most probably fine even in the sketchy neighborhoods in Sofia, e.g.

The car accidents problem is real, though ... there's the half-serous saying that accidents of this type are our form of mass-shootings.
- OTOH, this is how you grow. Every employee tends to rise to their level of incompetence. If you haven't yet, the following book by Gerry Weinberg may resonate with you, as it has lots of insight in this context -- "Becoming a Technical Leader: An Organic Problem-Solving Approach".

- > Conversely I doubt that Asta would be considered road worthy anywhere in the EU. Actually I think EU countries like Bulgaria and Romania would benefit from some of these super-cheap vehicles.
Bulgaria and Romania are EU countries — that is, under the same regulations that Germany has. Even if Asta was road worthy there, people from lower GDP EU countries would still prefer continue buying high-mileage, but somewhat well-maintained vehicles from Germany.
- Great work!
How is the panel? Do you have any uniformity issues? In total, I've tried 7 units of LG 5K UltraFine (27MD5KA-B and 27MD5KL-B). All had [1] uneven brightness (visible on white background) and backlight bleed. Some of the units also exhibited tinting and/or faint vertical lines. I couldn't swallow these issues for the price that I've paid. Now I'm with Dell U2720Q, but I miss the high PPI of the 5K.

- You can use Ctrl+E / Cmd E to invoke the `Recent Files` dialog -- the first file in the list will be the last closed tab.

There is also the `Reopen Closed Tab` action, which it seems doesn't have assigned shortcut by default, but you can assign it to whatever you feel comfortable with.
- I'm wondering how much context plays role in this perception — for example, I'm from Europe and find it somewhat confusing when people from USA talk about BMW/VW as utterly unreliable; here, it's the reverse — people equate VW cars as reliable and unpretentious, while BMW reliable and having great driving dynamics. Many people do consider BMW/VW as well-engineered/well-built quality cars that provide relatively good residuals.
