No, there is only a limited the freedom of travel between countries in EU (not Europe), but not of movement. For many years people from the newly admitted countries in EU had no right to work in the rest of EU. Most of the diplomas are not

So it is not a supermarket, just a charity? Regular people cannot go, buy something and pay like in any other supermarket? I haven't seen that explained in the article.

This looks like a combination of supermarket and charity; both are great, but does the combination make sense? A regular supermarket is a for-profit legal entity, a charity usually has tax-exemption, how can one manage the legal complicatio

That means rotating at a higher speed than calculated Vr, this is also bad as you put more wear in the tires and use more fuel (rolling on the tires vs flying in the air) to take off. The Vr is an optimal speed, below is dangerous, above is

I can give you a simple example on how this can happen, from a real production system in a different regulated environment: all the SQL SELECT statements are WITH (NOLOCK) on MS SQL server, resulting in non-committed (dirty) reads. Under ve

In most industries that are not IT, testing the IT systems very well is needed, but rarely achieved. In my area (FDA regulated) performance testing is almost never done correctly and (for sure) never completely, but as long as it works and

Rotating at a slower speed is a bad idea. Indicating a lower weight, resulting in a lower calculated rotating speed, is the root cause of the problem. There is no "slower rotation", one does not just pull the yoke slowly, raise th

As someone else already wrote, Constitutions tend to be reinterpreted - see all the controversies in US on several Amendments and the lack of meaning of "not infringe" these days.

Like regular citizens around the globe that are taxed for any reason the government wants. Taxes were also used as a way to express the power of the mighty during most of the history, the original meaning of an income source for shared publ

No, the judicial branch has the role to check that democracy does not become mob rule. There are some basic rights and liberties, but there are others not clear written on paper, but still not removable by vote.

Unfortunately moving the house is not an option, otherwise these taxes would be almost fine (as long as you have a choice).

Where should that strategy come from? In the end of the day, Meta is just the company of one huge and profitable product (Facebook) that just happened to be successful, not the result of a great strategy. There is no history of a great stra

Back of the napkin calculation is that burning 30 liters of unleaded gas gets you less emissions than 40 liters of Diesel; it is not only more fuel burned (with more CO2 as a result), but Diesel emissions are usually worse than gas. The &qu

EU regulators are not shy of ignoring side-effects, so intention is not likely but negligence is widespread. EU loves to regulate even for the sake or regulating; it was even listed as one of the reasons listed behind Brexit, even if that i

Jets have a huge fuel consumption per passenger per mile; airliners have it lower because of the scale. GA is different, in some cases it takes less avgas to fly from A to B than driving a car. In my case, flying a Rotax 912 powered plane t

Car or bike engines are not made to run continuously at 75% of max power with 1500-2000 between overhauls. Otherwise you can put a motorcycle engine in the plane, even better power to weight ratio (200 HP/liter) than car engines, but i

If 30 years ago you could fly a brand new plane for a price and now you can fly a 30 year old plane for a lot higher price, he is right to complain. It is the same comparing the price of a new car 30 years ago with the price of that used ca

No, the rate of accidents with Bonanza was found to be caused not by any defect of the airplane, but the high performance airplane-low pilot skill combination. It was a had too big for many people.

Price gauging. Same for Rotax 912, the most popular small engine on planes that don't need certification (LSA/ULM) and they are 20,000 Euro for a 1.3 liter engine with an 100 HP output.

I have installed Photoprism a few weeks ago in a jail on FreeBSD (TrueNAS, more precisely) and I have mixed feelings; it uses 70 GB of storage for 260 GB of photos, which sounds bad, and the face recognition is very unreliable so far, while

Out of curiosity, I played around with HN font size: by default on my monitor is 12px, at 13px is almost the same, at 14px is great, 16px is not better than 14px so it is wasting screen space. I think it depends a lot on the pixel physical

You are complaining about not enough contrast, but there is also too much contrast. Wow, you are both right.
