That's also very similar to how baby birds are fed by their parents.

Government can't just "decide to be a bad actor", the system wouldn't let it. If they could do it, they all would do it a long time ago (and many have indeed tried, from Watergate to now Trump). Bad actors need to be abl

I'd still love to take that risk...

This description matches better many countries in Africa than Finland. Finland is not that rich in natural resources, they have no coal, no oil. Have a lot of wood and some minerals.

And Copenhagen is well known for its high hills, right? Not everyone lives in Holland and Copenhagen and other flat places. Also, while it's definitely great that Scandinavians live their healthy and slightly ascetic lifestyle, it&#x27

I myself am 40+ and seriously obese, so I'm definitely counting myself into that "too old for e-scooter" group, but I actually had in mind average around-70-and-plus people around me, like my parents and their friends, the &q

What you're saying is taking into account only big cities and young population, but in small places and suburbs you depend on cars to do anything, get anywhere. Old people can't be expected to walk far or drive scooters and bikes

I never claimed there's more illegal immigrants in the EU than in US. I said that there's more immigrants than it is maybe perceived by most, especially tourists. For instance in Austria more than 20% of population are legal immig

Sorry, but you have no clue how many undocumented immigrants are all around you. Just because most of them are white you don't notice them in streets and they work shitty and hard jobs so you don't meet them either... I personally

Believes are important in churches, and in courts these are all just allegations that need to be proven first. That's how the law works.

As opposite to European belief that nothing can be solved without at least one government's committee discussing it for a few years first. I'm European, but in practice I'd say Americans got it closer to the truth. Most of th

It would still sort itself out eventually, one way or the other. We can speed up the recovery and try to minimize the impact, but even if there's no humans left life would probably continue in some form. If some species are destroyed,

Well, it's still not like in States, but mega-markets are taking over in Europe too, at least in my corner. Cities are pedestrian friendly, but pedestrian-only zones are rare. If you can't get to the restaurant/shop by car an

In 1438 there was no supermarkets with huge parking lots that will lure away all your customers. It's not just that people will have to walk to you (so competition located closer will win), they will also have to carry the stuff they b

It seems obvious, but could have profound consequences on how you logically group things together. Most of us thinks verbally and if it has no distinct name you don't think of it as a distinct entity, so our perception would just box i

I'd say it should be rephrased as "could only name a color as categorically distinct from others" to make it more obvious. If you're asked if something is blue or red, then turquoise would definitely be described as blue

And it's really all of those, or none...

It's actually phytoplankton that captures the CO2, so what about other kinds of whales that actually feed on plankton and don't dive as deep as sperm whales?

Peloton is the same idea as tailgating (driving behind a truck on highway in order to save fuel), front cyclists/runners use extra energy to "break" the air so that those behind them can save some strength.

If I understand correctly these stats will depend on the text you type, so each natural/programming language (especially programming language) will have a different stats, right? Think typing python vs typing perl for instance...

Issue here is with criticizing over-simplified Hello World examples for unnecessary "bloat" that is not really a bloat in real life. And people do add unnecessary libs in their code, I agree, but that's another story...

This is like saying that backend's gone crazy because people are loading MBs of frameworks just to print "Hello World" on the screen. Well, yes, but those are just examples, they're meant to be simple to understand, not

In a park it might seem that way because they've learned you're not a treat to them. Run into deer in woods where there's hunters and predators, a different story... you probably will not even see them ever, unless they accid

In the last code example image names are probably mixed up, huge-cupcake.webp should probably go to (min-width: 800px) media size, not (max-width: 799px)

Unfortunately "data silos" are very convenient to end users, and also allow them to easily discover new content - which solves the main problem of the distributed content, the bad discoverability.

I like this WikiBudget idea, how do we add our own countries?

Dirty HR tricks when they want you out of there, but have to justify it legally. Funny thing is that you could probably still win them in court as any expert would confirm that task was unrealistic, so it's such a bureaucratic nonsense
