  • In metric, one milliliter of water occupies one cubic centimeter, weighs one gram, and requires one calorie of energy to heat up by one degree centigrade—which is 1 percent of the difference between its freezing point and its boiling point. An amount of hydrogen weighing the same amount has exactly one mole of atoms in it. Whereas in the American system, the answer to ‘How much energy does it take to boil a room-temperature gallon of water?’ is ‘Go fuck yourself,’ because you can’t directly relate any of those quantities.

    Portugal job market

    Hi all, I have some questions regarding jobs in Portugal.

    I was going through the adverts and I have noticed they are all missing a salary - is it normal? How would I know what they are offering? Would they respond with a salary if I just email them?

    Are there international companies in Portugal where working language would be English rather than Portuguese?

    How do Portuguese companies look at working from home? Is coming to the office once a week an option? I am referring to more senior positions.

    In Brighton, a very small group of right-wing protesters are facing down hundreds of counter-protesters

    From the Guardian:

    "In Brighton, a very small group of right-wing protesters are facing down hundreds of counter-protesters outside a law office designated as one of the targets on a list circulated on social media. The counter protesters are chanting “Fascist scum, off our streets”, and “refugees are welcome here”, receiving some hoots of support from passing traffic. A person in the building across the road has just put up a sign in its window reading “Fuck off fascists”.

    The police have encircled the right-wing protesters for their own protection, and are closing down the street."
