  • I see. Then I misunderstood the goal of the protest. It was my understanding that to show the disagreement with the API pricing changes subreddits will go dark for a specified period of time to show the scope of the support this sentiment has, and if nothing will change, they will remain dark or take more drastic steps.

    If you organise a protest in your workplace and the management doesn’t budge to your demands, the usual next step is a mass leave of the employees.

    I was expecting the same to happen here because otherwise I see no point of going dark in the first place.

    Of course, Reddit can override this and reopen the subs, which is when you just mass delete everything or replace it with gibberish.



  • I was in a car accident while riding a bus. Nothing major but one person fell down and lost consciousness. We had to give CPR to him and while the driver was handling it well he needed help. I was 20 or 21 at the time so I volunteered and I wasn’t using enough force because I was afraid I’ll hurt the guy. I was especially holding back because he was like 80 years old or so.

    The driver shouted at me to do it properly. “You’re afraid you’ll hurt him?! What’s better, be hurt and alive or fucking dying?!” I fucked up but we managed to hold on with help of two others before help arrived.

    Just for context.


  • One thing to add, that haven’t been thought to me in the CPR course.

    It’s fucking exhausting and you will get tired very soon. The training dummy doesn’t require nowhere near as much force as a real person. To give you an example, it’s quite common to crack or break a rib of the CPR recipient even if CPR is done right. That’s how much force you have to use. Without the required force, your pushes won’t reach the heart.

    Make sure there is someone else who knows how to do CPR or at least is looking how you’re doing it and can repeat that or follow your commands once you switch.

    I’ve only had to give someone CPR once and I haven’t been as tired in my whole life. No way the “I’ve been giving him CPR for 30 minutes…” You see on a TV screen is real. I felt like I’ll need CPR myself after 3 minutes.
