Fuck the UN. They know nothing about economy, they are just trying to get some publicity, after showing their uselessness in stopping the war in Ukraine.

So now you get the reason why a person might want to buy 98% pure SN: to have a stockpile that lasts long, just take a bit of SN and dilute it to the required concentration.

BTW: what's the difference between 95.2 GB file and 45 GB one? There is no info on download page.

I think this stems from two things: 1. Americans are always on the run, living at much higher pace, ready to take off at moment's notice. 2. The US is located more to the south than Europe, so the climate is warmer and drier in most pa

Well, it's still better than 50s and 60s, when it seems married couples slept in separate beds (a scene from "I love Lucy"): https://i.pinimg.com/originals/ac/e1/f9/ace1f9037208231eebf5...

> they don't give you water for free like in the U.S. Well, to be fair, what you typically get in Europe is a nice bottle of mineral water, while in the US they just give you tap water (which would be considered faux pas in Europe).

Yeah, the nipple-phobia in Hollywood is really funny. Characters in Hollywood movies or TV shows somehow manage to have sexual intercourse without taking their underwear off.

> In good measure laws get complicated because simple laws get worked around and abused. I can quote tax laws as counterexample. A rule like "you pay 2% of your revenue as a tax" is simple and pretty hard to abuse. A rule like

That does not make it OK. The proper solution is one or both of: - Make laws so simple that a layman can understand them, thus removing the need for professional lawyers, and their exorbitant fees. - Have prosecution be equally well funded

That wasn't reparations, that was retribution for slave labor for those forced to work in German factories. It's a start, but also about two orders of magnitude less than what Germany should pay, given the atrocities they committe

Women are like rats, first to flee a sinking ship. A man needs male friends, counting on your spouse to be your support system is the biggest mistake man can make.

Adding compute is easy. Coming up with algorithmic advances is anywhere from hard to impossible.

"still in existence" is kind of implied, no? We can theorize that there were some previous works, but Gilgamesh is the oldest we can actually read.

The reason to never use CPU limits is different than those stated in the article. In short: Linux kernel SUCKS. More specifically, the "Completely Fair Scheduler" (CFS) sucks at enforcing those limits. Setting any limit at all cau

Yes, but they stopped it based on their previous excuse. I think first it was some spare part that was stuck in Canada due to sanctions, then they had to do "routine maintenance" of some pump station, then the same for another pum

On the other hand, if the US government came up with the idea, Poland would be happy to execute it. Government wouldn't think much about it, they wouldn't even ask for anything in return.

Those things do not take long to fix. In fact that's exactly what Putin needs right now: an excuse to stop the gas flow for a few weeks, until the pipeline is repaired. Then of course there will be some time until they test it, and the

Putin, because he gets an excuse to cut Germany off of Russian gas. It's game of chicken now: the West sends weapons to help Ukrainian army chase off all the Russian invaders, and Putin tries to make energy crisis in EU so severe that

It only works for short trips. No one rides a bicycle if they have to go to another town, 50 miles away. Also, do not mention: "you can take your bicycle on a train" - if you need to use the train then again you are dependent on p

Saudi Arabia used to have Thursday and Friday as weekend. They changed that recently (2013) to Friday and Saturday, because that gives them a bigger overlap with the rest of the world, which is good for business.

by 988747 4y ago
Well, since Saturday and Sunday are called "weekEND", so it logically follows that Monday is a "week start". Most people think about it like this: Monday is a start of a new work-week, and then you get two days of rest a

Pair programming works for me in short bursts: when I'm stuck at some problem I would call a colleague, share my screen, and then live-code with me as the driver and him watching me and producing ideas. I find it very effective.

That won't always be the case. Basically, it's all about with whom you trade most. If Saudi Arabia finds themselves in a position where they have 50+% of their imports and export originates in China it will make sense to switch to
