No, it's great advice, and if they can't figure out to google "native flowers in my region" after that then they really are hopeless.
Why is the onus always 100% on the people trying to help, while the newbie gets a free pass on not putting in effort? Frankly if the newbie put some effort in they probably wouldn't have even needed to make the post in the first place.
Of all the hobbies and random niche things I've taught myself on the Internet over the course of 15 years, I've only ever had post questions twice. Whatever question one is asking has already been asked and answered. Very, VERY rarely is someone looking for information so niche that it doesn't yet exist on the Internet.
I know those guys are trying to be helpful, but to a newb they can feel like you’re not ready to even start your hobby
Don't let other people hold you back.
If you're trying to start a new hobby and you get put off by people giving you information because you think they're being condescending, learn to put aside the personal feelings so you can focus on the thing you wanted to focus on.
New information is useful regardless of how it was presented to you. You can't control how other people act, but you can control how you react to it. Learn to take the good and leave the bad.
Ask how much they get paid, then go to your boss asking for a raise because you can actually use excel, and this other person can't. You deserve more than they do, and id your boss won't give you the raise, you can go down to your coworkers level and stop using excel.
It never takes them long to see your value when you stop giving it to them.
Why are people so obsessed with getting new doctors from immigration? Where's the call to increase schooling capacity?
Our capacity for training doctors and nurses hasn't increased in decades. Every year hundreds of potential health care workers get turned away from schooling because we don't have the capacity. And everyone big idea is to ... not fix the root problem.
Any way you spin it this problem will take years to solve. Whether through immigration or through increased training capacity, it's going to take years. So we might as well let Canadians get trained for these jobs. We clearly want to, as evidenced by the greater number of applicants than seats.
I was surprised to learn just now that Pit Viper isn't actually owned by Luxottica.
However they have many models that made in China and Italy, which means they are manufactured by Luxottica. Apparently some of them are still made in the US, but I wasn't able to find which ones.
Normally when a company is manufacturing something domestically they proudly announce it, because it's a good selling point. But I didn't see pit viper doing that in my brief searches, so it's safe to assume they're all made by Luxottica.
Which means these knockoffs probably came out of the same factory, if not the exact same product line.
