we are using phones in two situations: Either we want to eat out and have some minutes of peace. He eats with us, we play with him and after 30-40 minutes in the restaurant he gets botherd. I understand that, it was horrible to sit at the table with my parents, they were talking and i had nothing interesting to do nor was i allowed to stand up. A movie on a phone is just nice for this situations.

Other time: We watch a family movie. Sometimes it just nice to watch a movie and one of my favorite times with my parents was when we were watching a nice movie together. Laughing together, finding odd things in the scences, etc.

I find this not good Argument. We cannot predict the future and thinking about the good of people living in the future is therefore Not possible. We should think about the now and here and it's problems. Case: climate change, These people do Not waste any thought about that.

"So If Amazon wants to be the lowest price Destination, but Takes fees for Listings, FBA etc, then the product price needs to include that fees. That will make the product more expensive and since amazon wanted to be the cheapest Destination, the price does need to go up everywhere? It's maybe the Fairest Thing, but is it good for the Overall Economy?"

"Imagine being hired as a consultant by the mayor of a fictional city. Your task is to help hire for twenty jobs such as doctors, lawyers, childcare aides,janitors with applicants from four unfamiliar demographic groups: Tufa, Aima, Reku, and Weki. In each round, there is a new job vacancy and four applicants, one from each group, awaiting your decision. Once you make your choice, you learn immediately whether the hire was successful, and move on to the next round. Your goal is to maximize successful hires across 40 rounds, which will be converted into a real bonus compensation"

i remember an tipp our teacher gave us for quizzes: if we need to tick an answer from a b c d. We should choose a letter at random before we start the quiz. With this strategy we maximize our chances of getting more points. The logic is, we minimize the variance of choosing the wrong answer and we should get closer to the expectation value of 25%. Can it be that such a strategy is hardcoded in our brain?

i know some musicians, and it's how you describe it. They have multiple gigs all the time. Even 20-30 years ago. Most of the time one main job, one that pays the bills and is stable, like teaching, and more on the side. A conservatory is just a high-end agency for distributing classical live music.

OK you are right, i looked at a different regulation. But, i still do not understand why i cannot buy pregistered packaging for the whole EU? Or why i cannot register in one country for all Cross Border sales. I mean there are minimum standards imposed by the EU and the packages need to have a mark. So why is it like that? Even more 1 years after the draghi report....

I believe the view layed out in the article is wrong. The German Wikipedia has an article about the PPWR. One Paragraph is saying: "The distributor must verify that the manufacturer and, where applicable, the importer have fulfilled their requirements, that all necessary markings are affixed to the packaging, and that the manufacturer is registered in the producer register pursuant to Article 44." That does not sound like you are responsible for registering yourself but you need to purchase your packaging from registered vendors and you need to verify that. Sound reasonable to me.
