But not trying something very unlikely to succeed sounds valuable to me. Why waste 2 months of engineering time if your engineering team is convinced it will take at least 6 months?

> Why does the size of the work that needs to get done matter? If you need it you need it. Generally, I would agree, but I've seen cases where it mattered, because the value of a feature would become 0 after a set date. For instance

I don't have an answer, but I would say not necessarily the same height. Mountains do not grow all at once or at a constant rate. For instance, there are some parts of the Himalayas that are currently growing at 1-2 cm/y. It is th

No, OP wants to have people vote on absolutely every decision, whereas the Swiss system is to have elected representatives that deal with the day to day, with the citizens having the power to challenge or propose some specific votes.

How would that work? Let's say the ruling party proposes a law that perfectly matches one of their promise, this law is rejected in the parliament. Then what? Realistically, all promises are at best "we will try to".

I don't know about the other 2, but I wouldn't say sustainable. Humans have been overhunting species for a long while now, from the Ice Age megafauna, to lions in Europe in Antiquity and the Dodo a few centuries ago, and plenty of

Not terrible? The first link is a modern 80m2 flat (sounds huge for 1 bedroom to me) with great facilities right on the sea front. Do you have example of what you would consider good, because it already sounds pretty luxurious to me?

I was thinking it must be too soon to have a significant effect yet, but apparently I was wrong. According to [ https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/LFWA64TTPLQ647N ], the working age population in Poland has declined by

I think it's the case in the UE. It doesn't really solve the luggage issue, but that's a bit more difficult because that one is truly optional. I don't think I have paid a different price than what was displayed in the a

Most people do not hand wash 144 items at once though. If there's only one person with a plate, fork, knife, glass and pan that's roughly 30 wash cycles.

In Switzerland, where labour is very expensive, it doesn't get more expensive, places are just closed. Supermarkets are open 8.30 a.m. to 7 p.m. (during the week, they close earlier on Saturday) and the burrito place close at 11 p.m..

It's going to depend based on context. In this case, context was unclear and a misunderstanding ensued. I have nothing to back this up except experience, but I think the thumb up is less common is Europe than in the US. In this specifi

It's probably a bit biased because I develop on Firefox/Chrome (very rare to find difference between the 2) and have to wait for reports/borrow an iOS device to test/debug. There might be similar issues with the aforemen

It is really the lack of investors that is causing the lack of supply? I was under the impression that it's mostly that building more is not allowed/very difficult (for various reasons), not that there is a lack of capital.

Feature detection seems to be quite broken to me. For instance Safari on iOS reports support for drag and drop events, but they aren't actually triggered. Another I encountered recently is the "accept" attribute on input file

Would it be possible to have a static assert? In that case I would expect it to fail at compile time, not run time.

The value you produce is just the theoretical upper limit of how much you could get paid. If you could measure this value accurately, then it would make no sense to pay you more than that. It has little bearing on how much you actually get

And my point is that there are many things beginners should and could do that they do not know about. Yes of course, once you have the advice you need to train and not everything is actionable. But for beginners something like a build order

I am not saying it is easy, just that it can have value. If anything, the fact it is hard makes it more valuable. I don't think it's hopeless though, the AI already does something similar. As a very naive implementation, you could

I disagree, at least for fast paced strategy. For instance in Age of Empires 2, the best way to improve is to look at a replay of your games, and analyse what went wrong. Stuff like "my economy was idle because I was focusing on the fi

And it's even worse when you consider you can add people for almost no extra costs, whereas with public transportation it mostly multiplies.

Is the ratio of electors/MP different for expats vs those living in the country? I can certainly understand the anger of the GP, apparently roughly 25% of the Croatian citizens do not live in the country. As an expat myself, having a s
