The fact that in US you can win the most powerful seat in the world while not even voted for by majority of its own population is properly ridiculous. Yes we all heard about historical this and that but that doesn't matter, thats not a

Who does typical code sweat shops churning out one smallish app at a time and quickly moving on? Certainly not your typical company-hired permanent dev, they (us) drown in tons of complex legacy code that keeps working for past 10-20 years

Don't over-estimate that neither. Things can be done in such ways that there is nothing visibly incompatible (ie scripting behind some forms), you can always just print and fill the document if needed, and anyway most documents are sta

Its the same hipstery thingie like LPs are with similar talk about quality, experience and whatnot. People still do it, heck people do a lot of seemingly weird stuff that is far from optimal behavior. Who cares at the end, somebody likes ga

A counter-example - with a weekly shopping list way too long (family of 4), its hard for the husband to pick up all items as fresh as possible and do all necessary checks on each of them. Or in other words - even people themselves do make s

If that would not be enough, any lack of medical care could be another. 10% chance of dying for every birth for the mother. Flu, any tooth ache, appendix inflammation or any more severe cut would be easily deadly for young and old. Everybod

> Europa wants to go to war against Russia's hypersonic missiles. Not true, Europe (as in EU or Schengen or similar group) wants to be left alone by some hyper aggressive undeveloped dictatorship in the east with massive inferiority

How would you compare it to Iceland regarding volcanoes and all? Thats what we Europeans have in our backyard and its a properly stunning and otherwordly experience.

Nope. Something only a person benefiting from such cancer that ad business is would say that (and there are tons of those here on HN lets be honest, better half of faangs has ad-paid ultra high salaries and bonuses). Ultimately its just ano

This is all false, I guess you've never been to Soviet Union nor russia (that country doesn't deserve capital R). Central planning is dysfunctional at its core, ignoring subtleties of smaller parts. Also, it was historically alwa

Go back to local politics? Why the only direction should be always up? At the end, who cares? Career politicians with most power who reach the top will always be good primarily at one thing - bullshitting their way to the top in various soc

This is bulk of the problem. Don't expect kids to do better when their role models screw up so badly. Sure some will come on top of their own parents but thats not the norm rather just an exception. There is always the peer pressure ex

There are entire nations which mostly spend their whole lives renting. Ie where I live - Switzerland, many nordics. Maybe correlation with highest happiness levels in the world is coincidental, maybe its not. Happiness simply comes from oth

FOMO is a powerful emotion, but like all emotions its a bad idea to make it a primary decision maker for any important matters. Reading all this from distant Europe, its interesting (and logical) how in US the swings in prices are so extrem

This is where screenshots come from, official topo data are free. I use them all the time for hiking, ski touring etc. Good thing they cover also neighboring mountains a bit (to varying detail) so ie France or Italy can be enjoyed just with

This is a bit out of touch with reality, presumably you don't have a car and seemingly are against any normal sized cars or bigger. A very narrow use case should change the world we all live in? Tiny cars can't do longer distances

Given recent results of democratic elections across most western world, decency seems to be overrated. Maybe you were voting against such change, but look where we are. Its not just US or just parts of Europe. I don't have a solution,

Look at how US government treats financial behemoths which actively harm whole mankind vs how EU treats them. There is way more to this topic obviously (who wants to harm their local company), but generally US is pro-companies while Europe
