Peak HN! Top 1st-level comment tree involves passionate, math-based analyses of several decades of economic adjustments. Redefinitions of inflation adjustments ad nauseum; a math geek's approach to social sciences - which is not the su

No one but you and the poster above you is discussing "the left" as a single group. "Communism" is being discussed, and implicitly Soviet communism, which ruled a gigantic portion of both Europe and northern Asia for s

That is a simplistic and naive POV. Yes, the state can allocate X engineers to do Y. But a complex system requires Z engineers to design subsystem 1, and repeat 100x. And engineers for sub-subsystems. And specialists for allocating resource

Historically, brewing, fermenting, and distilling are all "wife chores", probably because of the feminine-coding you mention... until it becomes highly profitable, at which point men take it away. Wine has always easy to trade. Me

Water-soluble taste compounds all dissolve with similar time profiles (all other things being equal), which are exponential curves that asymptote at zero and saturation. The time constant and the saturation level are the true variables, and
