pollution mostly occur because fumes and a fire.
Whether you agree with vehicles made fuel oil in a change with tekhnologi electricity to reduce the pollution?
Pollution nowadays really becoming severe due to continious emission of monocarbon from vehicles. This issue cant be easily fixed because of the needs of people by means of transportation. It can be reduced if people know how to give importance to the nature.

VOTE in the Poll!

Like many people I’m a college drop-out and the current consensus for people who does not have a degree is not that great compared to those who has at least a Bachelor’s diploma.

When people asks me how would I be able to compete with those graduates my answer is, a lot of the things that I do in my current job can be learned through an 8 hour online course in Udemy or a simple search in google.

However, I was passing by a big drugstore chain in my place and I saw the job posting outside and it says:

“WANTED: Cashier
Requirements: Bachelor’s degree in any field”

That made me wonder, why does a degree matter for that position?

I am a Software Development Quality Assurance Engineer and I was very lucky that my employer trusted the skills I bring in, because if to take and count money requires the fancy diploma, then I won’t survive getting a job at least not for now.

My thoughts are, if it were my doctor, Im pretty sure I wouldn’t want someone who would tell me that “Well I googled it and I think you have cancer” but other positions in a company, or the mahor industries as well, can easily be learned through training and self education.

What are your thoughts folks? Share and reply. Let’s have a meaningful exchange!
Ofcourse!!  College degree still matter in digital age because no matter how you do, companies would always require aspiring employee to have a degree before they could enter the position theyre applying. It is a ticket to find and easier to be in a decent work.

This age-old question really has a simple answer. Attempts to answer it, however, and attempts to get around implications of the simple answer are often quite convoluted.

What do you think about it?
This question have been devated for a long time but I heard some news that this mind blowing question has already been ended and came up that Chicken came first before the egg.

Everyone more or less laughed and made fun of special children (and also "weird" or "abnormal" people) at one point in their lives, you'd be lying if you deny that.
My question is,
Why do we laugh?
Is it because it is genuinely funny, thus we laugh?
Is it to make ourselves better? if so what's the difference?
It is genuinely funny because they aren't normal.
Is there something wrong with that?
Special child can also feel and be hurt, they are the ones who needs love and understanding from people who is normal around him. Making fund of them wont make you a better person instead it will degrade your personality.
5  Other / Politics & Society / Re: How do you feel about the death penalty? on: January 04, 2018, 03:08:23 AM
In the U.S. state of Arkansas for eleven days from 17 to 27 April - going execution of seven men sentenced to death. The reason for such haste is that at the end of the month expiration midazolam - medicines used for injections in the execution of the death penalty. Over the last ten years in Arkansas were not executed prisoners. The seven men were handed down death sentences in the period between 1990 and 2000, the years for murder, robbery and rape. Midazolam is one of the drugs used in the process of execution of a death sentence to the convicts fainted. In the US the use of this drug is considered controversial after 2014, one of the sentenced to death more than 40 minutes remained conscious after the injection of midazolam and died a painful death. European manufacturers of midazolam refuse to deliver to US an additional batch of the drug. Existing stocks will end shortly, so in Arkansas and hurry to execute the death penalty.
In our country, death penalty hasn't yet revived but the government has been planning in returning it. My stand to death penalty would be I'm on pro death penalty. I know that It's not right to end life based on the bible but no one would face this consequence if we don't breach laws. And with this, it will lessen crime or even eradicate it if this death penalty will be properly implemented.

Hey guys I'm not sure if this is the right place so please tell me if it is not. With that out of the way, I have a question for you all. I have recently been able to gather about .5 btc through minor trading and I was wondering if there was any method or way to grow this btc into a larger amount safely and fairly quickly. Thanks!
You could grow if you invest it but the time frame cant be assured when to grow, just have patience and wait for it to bloom.
7  Economy / Economics / Re: Does the Price of Bitcoin Matter? on: January 03, 2018, 04:10:16 PM
For true devotees of Bitcoin, the price of the digital currency is almost irrelevant. They believe in its inherent value or, more frequently, cannot see any value at all in the alternative of government issued fiat currency. Price is therefore not a concern. At the other end of the spectrum, for those that harbor what appears to be an irrational hatred of Bitcoin and anything to do with it, the exchange rate also matters little. They were screaming that it was all worthless when the price was at over $1000, and somehow convince themselves that an exchange rate of over 200 times what it was before that bubble proves their point. For the vast majority of people somewhere in the middle, however, the price of the currency in Dollar, Euro, Yuan or whatever terms is important.

For bitcoin investors, yes bitcoin price matter since they are after the profit or gain of interest. As the price is lower its now the right time to invest and just wait until it reaches higher value that youre satisfied to withdraw.

Social media has a great impact on our daily life. The socio-cultural behavior is changed. Most of the times we are passing on internet and social medias. For this reason, we have started to loose social communication. Digital  communication has taken place instead of physical communication. Though we are connected with whole world through internet, it has some negative impacts also. Family bonding, social bonding,  these relations are affected. 
There's a great impact of social media in our lives. It became now a part of human life. Most of us are using social media by the moment we start our day. Social media has its advantage and disadvantage in the society, the advantage would be it is now easier to pass info. to anyone but also easier to spread fake info to defame or degrade someone.

Many people say that we are the last generation of human race. Some say that the end of the world is near. What do you think, how will the world end?
Climate change is rapidly happening, floods has been the number 1 effect of the fast change of environment and its noticeably devastating human lives now. Many people have died due to floods and landslides and the reason behind these are all fault of human also. As technology abruptly embracing human life it also brings danger. If these problems continuously happen end of the world will soon happen.

11  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Is democracy always necessary ? on: January 03, 2018, 10:02:05 AM
We all know that democracy means rule of the people. However, If a decision is adopted by the majority, It doesn't mean that It's totally true. Especially If the majority haven't good education level. In this case, should we consider that democracy Is dangerous for the global interest of the people ? What should we do in such cases
I hope you get my point
Democracy is always necessary its just that people should know how to abide rules to have peaceful life. Sometimes, democracy have been used under the groups against the government and by this government have to do action, here now enters abuse issues where victims were abused due to their acts supporting againts government groups.

I don't know, but everyone from my country thinks that ours is the most corrupt in world. Is it the same in yours too? If so...why, or how come?
I believe that every country has its own imperfection one of it is corruption, there is a corruption in every country it only varies depending on how the government implement anti corruption policy. The more strict the company would be, the lesser the corruption it is.
13  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: what to do if bitcoin decreases? on: January 03, 2018, 05:43:37 AM
now a lot of investors are investing in bitcoin, therefore bitcoin has increased very rapidly, if bitcoin decreased what should be done?, whether the investors will lose? Roll Eyes
If you're into long time investment and wants to gain profit in bitcoin withdrawing it when it decreases a bit is not advisable. Considering that some says that bitcoin value will rise this coming years leaving it in you btc wallet is probably a good choice only if you still have extra money outside to use if you have something to buy and just let you fund in btc gain interest as time goes by.
14  Other / Off-topic / Re: Does Aliens exist? on: January 03, 2018, 04:43:23 AM
I know this is crazy base on what people post at the Internet now a days.

•Do you actually believe in aliens?

Basing on people's posted video I would say yes what do you think guys? I hope I am not just the one who believes in aliens.
In my own opinion alien really exists, we may not have seen them in reality but some proofs have already been recorded. Some proofs may have been kept to protect religion from breaking and to maintain peace in the world.
15  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Why do people kill for religion? on: January 03, 2018, 03:04:39 AM
We are all witness of recent events, war, killings, and terrorism claiming they are doing it for their god. What do you think of this belief?
Sometimes this reasoning is only used just for them to fully do their bad intention. But, in some cases where someone was involved in killing the reason behind this perhaps is to protect their belief or in other words they felt insulted to what other people say about their religion. Religion vs religion and belief vs belief.

What are your thoughts on online dating and it's effects on long term relationships?
Is it better or worse than before it was introduced?
Online dating can be viewed good or bad depending on the perspective of the people seeing it. But for me, online dating is somehow not bad at all. There are a lot of products of an online dating which produces a happily married husband and wife. These examples of it proves that online dating can be a way of finding your life time partner.
