Lost my phone at the airport. So I’m out of touch. Sent an SMS to it, if it goes through – it means they either transferred the SIM to another phone or turned mine on. The phone has a lock code, if they insert another SIM, I’ll see it on Google Location. Not reissuing the SIM as it’s still the last chance to find the device :-((((

P.S. If anyone finds it – please contact me 🙂

Last evening, Victor Romanovsky and I couldn’t just walk past the street band konnexion balkon. Those guys were really on fire. My phone died, here are the links from the web.

What do you do if you are interviewing a person, and within 3 minutes after starting the conversation you realize that they are 100% not the right fit?

option 1) I say “thank you and goodbye” right away,

do you explain the reason?

option 2) For decency or something else, I still ask various questions for about 15-30 minutes, after which I say “thank you and goodbye”.

For decency or something else?

Masha got into Rainbow Loom – making bracelets from colorful elastic bands. She recently got sick, and with the help of YouTube, she learned a ton of ways to weave these rubber bands. Now my house is full of these rubber bands, but they are running out. To buy more, you can purchase a set of 600 pieces in Russia for 1600 rubles, or you can order from China – attention – for 2 dollars. For six dollars, you can buy a set of 4200 rubber bands weighing one and a half kilograms. Including shipping, it comes to 38 dollars, i.e., 2500 rubles per box. For five boxes, the shipping cost is already 130 dollars. It turns out that in the retail cost of Chinese rubber bands, 90-95% is “eaten up” by transport. If someone learned how to make them in Russia, they would become a millionaire.
