Correlation != causation, yet again for billionth time even otherwise smart folks easily do this mistake, usually emotions cloud their rationality. There is 0 proof as in any form of research that proves what you claim, you don't even

Maybe mankind ain't yet so developed that what you list isn't present in general population in large numbers, even majority. Echo chambers like HN or typical workplace of typical HN user give skewed image how much rational folks o

Hmm, as someone from Europe I've never heard labeling of trump's supporters as nazis, that's quite a strong claim I haven't seen much evidence of. Not that you are not correct in many aspects, but wasn't inequality

Calm down your righteous emotions by few notches, few corrupt (technically or morally) people in places like FIFA et al don't represent western overall values. The fact you can freely bash them without consequences like lashing to deat

This is what nature keeps doing for billions of years - we have constant background radiation, some stuff from sun which still gets through, and lets not forget about everybody's favorite cosmic rays. The most energetic particle we det

But you have no idea about internals of NYT, do you? You have no idea whats reasonable and whats not in their team. BTW why people create a new accounts just to furiously comment all over pretty basic topics like this? Are you really that a

I appreciate your honesty, that's not easy to admit even on anon forums. You seem to evaluate it correctly. Just one thing - if work is such shit ie due to manager, just leave, you don't own them nothing. First try to talk to mana

Also this goes beyond just ERP - core banking packages like Temenos or Avaloq are the same. They have something called 'model bank' which is some default simple model of common expected behaviors, workflows etc. But almost none of

Well, you are unfortunately correct. But as coming from Europe, I blame mostly EU at the end. US shouldn't be the sole policeman and shield to 450 million economically strong block. When I look at the government and its steps re defens

I find it extremely hard to believe that ie South american cultures which had cities before this year didn't have wheels on some form of cart in their repertoire. Maybe this is true if we limit scope on Europe and Middle east.

You probably meant other industry but this is a terrible mindset for cars for example. Touchscreens are so terrible premium manufacturers ignored them for a long time since its obvious downgrade in comfort and safety, yet people kept buying

I learned how to cook rice properly in India, just pot, water, some salt in right quantities and timing. Did that for decade at least. I still use rice cooker though these days, even more trivial to operate, can't mess up things if I m

Well yes but we can perform 16 hours straight then. If you look at what elite alpinists can do (or more like are rarely forced to do) it can be easily 72 hours full on brutal effort on physical and mental limits, with 0 margin for mistake,

You would be surprised how hard can some managers negotiate 10% salary change during hiring, despite the fact its not their own money, or anyhow useful for their work. I talk multinational mega corporations here. People just want to be good

How do cheaters circumvent bans? I would presume you have some unique copy key which is activated, and once it gets revoked should never ever allow you to connect to their game servers. Company runs entire ecosystem, how apart from hacking

And that goes only for rather flat terrain and non-cold environments. Otherwise the discrepancies end up just like consumption of ICE engines in ads vs reality.

I can generate in eclipse pojo classes or their accessor methods. I can let maven build entire packages from say XSDs (I know I am talking old boring tech, just giving an example). I can copy&paste half the code (if not more) from stack
