What kind of meat did you use to eat? Quorn tastes nothing like an actual chicken. On the other hand I have never tasted fast food chicken nor frozen schnitzels. I am not saying it is bad, but it has a very particular taste that is definite

In Sweden it is not uncommon to remove shoes at work, especially when it's a wooden floor. I know we do it in my company. On the other hand in France it is very uncommon, but it is pretty usual to switch shoes when entering the office.

This is just wrong. The main problem of Venezuela was the central bank policy and fixed exchange rate while printing money, and clientelism at all levels leading to sub efficient systems and unfair competition. Of course investor left when

I can't say about your environment but at least in France it is completely wrong. The general opinion on Facebook is extremely negative. It does not prevent people from using it, but they have as bad a reputation as oil companies. Even

A lot of air quality problem in cities comes with tyres and brakes. This is why the air quality is so bad in metro stations even though thzy are fully electrical as well. In addition, the policies against car are not only pollution related

By experience, and this is a good example, subcontractors are waaaaay more clueless than government employees. There are actually very competent tech peopme in government, although not at decision levels. For subcontractors you often have c

My three year old oled TV does not, and I use it as a PC display 8h/day. Are you sure you do not disconnect it sometimes?

Depends where you live and your household consumption . In Sweden milk expires usually 3-7 days after you buy it. If you are alone and don't drink that much, it does make a big difference buying the one that expires in 7 days vs the on

Sprints and stand-up have that in common with communism, on the paper it sounds good but in practice it ends up very differently.

If you can charge your car both at work and at home that advantage is reduced drastically. On the other hand you still think about those 0.1% of trips when you buy your car, which is why people have big cars for their family to handle holid

There are plenty of examples of companies facing a saturated market. The logical next step is to grow vertically as you cannot grow horizontally anymore. Some succeed, many fail. In the long run, nearly all companies fail.

This is slightly wrong. It was initially one week, not two. It was changed because it was unconstitutional, as it limited freedom of expression too much, not because it was useless or anything to do with elite vs people. And it still exists

As you say it looks for profit. Not yield but profit. Which means that it can be profitable to always have mass culture of the most profitable crop even if having pluriculture with different less profitable crops would yield more. This is h

The lock in is the same though. We are having A LOT of troubles due to lock in with Google Cloud (particularly GAE and Datastore, but also Pub/Sub) and it is really not fun at all...

I don't really understand this. Netflix cares about how much you watch it ONLY if it means you will stop your subscription. In fact, as long as you keep your subscription their interest is that you watch as few as possible to minimize

Last time I checked there the war on drugs was lost and criminal activities are doing pretty good in the US. But I agree nonetheless that this kind of activity is certainly at the very bottom of their preoccupation. It even surprises me bec

I don't see how heavily armed Americans change anything. Personnal weapons would not change a dictatorship. If anything it would just justify killing opponents for armed rebellion/terrorism. It's not like your gun will stop t

Based on your graph the income tax became significant in 1943, which was 75 years ago. It was significant in France 30 years before that and in Germany and the UK 100 years before that. This is actually pretty old and much earlier in develo

Criminalizing PR is not criminalizing speech,it is criminalizing a financial transaction. It does not mean that PR firms cannot say some things, just that they cannot be paid for it.

Disagree. It is only a problem for swish only transactions. For cards the fee is higher when you withdraw than when you pay directly,so in a foreign country I always try to pay by card. In addition, handling cash in foreign countries is a h

Except that the law is not supposed to be a car deal but supposed to be the same for all actors. Or do you also think you should be able to pay to ignore all laws in general? If I follow your logic, I think a fair tool for cities and state

I don't understand your point, you're trying to make complexity out of simple concept imo. Data science: the science of using data to draw conclusion. Can be thousands/hundreds of datapoint. Can be billions. Does not matter.

Posterity does not work like that. Many authors who were popular disappeared completely from memory, while other who were relatively unknown became extremely popular decades after their death. Academics play a major role in what we remember

Construction costs are pretty low, it's the land that is expensive. Ao if you reduce the construction cost by 70% it probably reduces the total cost by only 10/20%, and you get something generic instead of something made for you.

The US has more holess problem than all the other developed countries yet has a very low minimum wage. So I would say no.
