I always like to learn something new. This way i feel like my life become full. And as a matter of fact my profession requires me to know many things, for example about nursing homeworks and other crucial things that can be relied to medical things. In my opinion we all need to be smart if we want to achieve something and in my case this also applies to helping people

Afaik if you render a GMO ingredient through an industrial process into something else it is no longer considered GMO
e.g. making sugar out of GMO beets

TIL in 1974 the US made Daylight Saving Time permanent with 79% public approval. Support dropped to 42% the first winter due to everyone waking up in darkness. It was repealed the next year.
Lots of people don't wake up that early anymore. For those who do, we've got sunrise alarm clock these days. Also, our lights use less electricity these days.

I learned that Ukraine was a three way battlefield between the ottoman empire, the Russian empire and the polish/Lithuanian commonwealth.

I'm learning how and what is different about online schools. What are their advantages. Ever since the pandemic began, I've been thinking about starting my own online school to share my knowledge. Now this has not lost its relevance, so I decided to give it a try. Especially since the existence of special platforms has greatly facilitated this task. So I started to cooperate with Kwiga and get to grips with all the aspects. Wish me luck!
