USAID is a bogeyman agency in far-right conspiracy circles. Musk gets his world view from far-right conspiracists.

The UK had larger oil reserves than Norway and started developing them earlier. At one point in the 1980s 1 pound in every 10 of tax taken in the UK was directly from oil extraction taxes.

It's because post GFC the USA stimulated and the EU went all in on austerity. It is fairly clear what was the best option.

Yeah, 100k is starting pay band for Consultants, 140k is after 14 years of service _as a consultant_. To get to the starting line of Consultant they have to go through the Residency gauntlet which start you off at 36k and hideous hours.

Interesting you appear to be getting downvoted for presumably accurately stating that China is the majority source of fake honey. It was such a known problem that China had to start laundering its honey, I believe at one point Singapore sud

Yeah as soon as I see 'blend of EU and non-EU honey' then I'm noping out of there as it just means disguised sugar syrup. Actual location authenticated honey costs actual real money.

The original Agricola rulebook is almost completely unusable and the only way to learn how to play back in the day was someone who already knew how to play teaching you - I presume in an unbroken oral tradition all the way back to Uwe Rosen

React is really easy to learn. Stupidly easy. It was so easy that people strived very, very hard to make it seem complicated - and they succeeded. Back in the day every React tutorial layered in soooooo much other stuff, Redux and a milli

The Pocket Operators are the best Price-to-ActuallyFunctional thing that TE produce. They are very immediate and fun to use. Everything else they do is extreme bait.

The best lesson I took from SICP (which I read years after Iw as a competent programmer) is that the very moment you write your first function you are in effect creating a DSL for solving you domain problem. It truly levelled me up as a pro
