I would have thought the "traditional way" would simply be eat less, move more (by changing your habits of course).

It's not a gamble, it's an application of the law of large numbers. But yes, changes in the underlying assumptions (e.g. mortality rates) can make the whole calculation untenable.

The use as a suffix "-frei" is something different I think. I'm pretty sure it has kept its meaning of "-los" ("-less") since a long time ago.

Isn't English actually the only language where "free" can also mean "at no cost"? German is the same as French in this regard, we have "kostenlos" (literally cost-less) "gratis" (the same) and

That's not the case. I have come to such situations. And I suppose the program can identify those as well and put the bomb where you didn't click.

In minesweeper online there's also a "no guessing" mode which, in my opinion, is much more interesting than the normal mode. It means that if you guess in a situation where you could have deduced the mines, you always get a m

UBI is not about "care". That's just the typical left-wing compassion framing. I don't want to abolish all taxes, I'm not a libertarian. But giving away the money you took from somebody else needs a justification (f

I made the socialism-remark because of the post before blaming everything on economic inequality. While that can lead to problems, I don't think it's necessarily a problem in itself or a sign of injustice. You're correct in t
