RE: Hints of Spring - Stopping the Virus of FUD on Steem
It has been quite rough the past few weeks. I keep telling myself it could have been worse.
I'm really sorry to hear about that issue with your website. I hope it has a positive conclusion and you can use Steempress again soon.
Congratulations on finishing your TEFL. It seems like you learned something and it was worth it. Online teaching should be interesting. I know a few people doing that right now. I've done some phone or video stuff, but it was more tutoring than teaching.
The issue is getting boring. I'm guessing he isn't even planning on selling now that the price crashed so much. Now is in a really difficult position because he has to get the community on board Steem development or the price will never recover. I hope he loses big time.
Covid-19 is bad, but yeah fear and negativity is worse, as is usually the case.
Thanks for the well wishes. I hope you stay healthy too. I'll try to fix that broken link.
Thanks, I am hoping that by Monday it will be sorted. Seems there's a 48-hour window during which they try to contact the host before it can be unblocked. I don't really
want tounderstand; I just want it sorted.With all these outages, I'm having to focus on the work that pays the bills - everything else is taking a back seat. The outages have downgraded to level 3, which means it's done for today, but tomorrow is another 7-odd hours with no power if they stay at this stage. It wreaks havoc with life in general, never mind online studying or work.
That brings me to the online course: my plan is to tutor rather than teach. And to work with adults. Hopefully in college/university/business contexts because that's where my experience and expertise lie.
Thanks for fixing the link to your kimchi post: fascinating. I've forwarded it to a friend of mine who is a potter and who has tried making kimchi (in a beautiful urn she had made) and wants to give it another bash. I'm hoping this might inspire her.
And as for the rest, I guess that unless I have to change a witness vote or whatever, it's wait and see....
Have a good weekend!
It's interesting about the power situation. Shame they cannot work on conservation amd at least give people smaller amounts like 100watt at all times. Although I guess a reasonable battery set up could allow for that.
I'm sure you will find a lot of people interested in being tutored, especially online. The pay is a little lower, but the convenience is incomparable. Besides I'm sire your reputation will grow.
Thanks for sharing my kimchi link, I wish her success. My actual recipe is vague, but I do link to some good ones.
Everything will eventually work out the way it happens to work out.
Well, after my rant, loadshedding has been suspended. It's a long story, summarised I two words/phrases, Zuma and state capture,so to get the system on an even keel, we are told to expect this for the next year to 18 months.
Thanks for the encouragement. Much appreciated
We all need encouragement during these challenging times.
I hope he is right and it ends someday. Unless they are building power stations and tackling corruption, I have my doubts.
Well, as I said to Pennsif: Since there's been a change in the guard as it were and they're cleaning house (too many cliches), I am happier to put up with it. There's a bit more candour when there's a breakdown and a commitment to actually stabilising and improving the system. Of course, the economic impact of Covid-18 might mean that demand reduces and they get it sorted quicker.
