No, they had to take a decision quickly and they took it. They knew that one side will cry foul, but the alternative would have been worse. Before you start mocking those ignorant low-trust eastern europeans, notice that a similar thing hap

The candidate ran a large campaign just days before the election without declaring a campaign budget. It took the services and the constitutional court a few days to figure out what happened and take this decision. Give them some credit, th

This news shows exactly that the constitutional court was not asleep. They took a bold decision.

He declared 0 campaign budget and he ran a campaign estimated at millions of $ in the last days before the election. Also the videos were not marked as campaign ads. These are illegal under Romanian law. The court took a courageous decision

You can indeed make a (less absolute) form of this argument for all cooking: Overcooking and adding a lot of spices makes everything (more or less) edible. With less cooking and less spices, you can better taste the original ingredients.

The range is somehow (unburnt good coffee) > (burnt good coffee == burnt bad coffee) > (unburnt bad coffee). If you are in the last box, you cannot get to the first one, but you can still move one step up by burning it. Plus you can a

Burnt meat tastes like burnt meat, people are familiar with it and can eat it, even it is not the greatest thing, and burnt meat tastes like burnt meat regardless of how it was in the beginning, so you could imagine that it was actually goo

I will sound awfully smug, but I tend to understand most of the biblical and homeric references, only some of the star wars ones (those referring to the original trilogy) and absolutely none of those about marvel films of which I haven&#x27

The problem is if it is bad, they have to burn it to mask the taste. Same with most meats too.

It is telling that you also mention "better economy" and "comfortable life", but not "equal rights" or "self-government" or any such thing. Even with animals in the zoo one doesn't think that all

Interesting that people may experience it differently, but to me it was a bit of a letdown, somehow it felt larger than the human scale, so maybe impressive as a technical feat, but also somewhat boring, more intimidating than moving -- I w

The teaching method I find best is a teacher explaining and writing with chalk on the blackboard, and the students taking handwritten notes on paper, asking whenever something is not clear. In other words, the most boring classical setup po

English is my fourth language and I much prefer reading something that is imperfect but written by a human to something auto-generated. That feels as if we someone would say "I'm busy, talk to my agent instead."

That's an immediate disqualifier for everything (for me) unfortunately.

I find the corporations doing it less creepy than my loved ones. To be clear, I think both are bad, but for different reasons.

No, I think you having the data is also creepy. I wouldn't want my wife to follow all my steps, and neither would she.

Watching your wife's commute also makes me uneasy. Maybe she wants to get you a surprise birthday present or something. Anyway, I wouldn't want to track someone like that (including children) or be tracked like that. EDIT: toned d

Long time ago I was amusing myself during coffee breaks by throwing some dry biscuits to the crows around the building. I enjoyed watching how clever they were, sometimes they dipped the biscuit first into a pot that had collected some wate

"We're all stuck with this..." I think you are rationalizing your choices by thinking everything does the same. It is not true, some are not stuck anywhere, some choose to live a simpler life that needs less money, fewer comp

Note that there were already hundreds of old fashioned proofs, the challenge was exactly to find a new one with the "high powered" methods without circularly referring to the PT, which these two kids achieved.

ok, so you now have to type "What's the weather in Positano?", because typing "Positano weather" into Google was too difficult.

Nah, it's common in German too. For example, the first parts of "Widerspruch" and "wiedersehen" are said/heard the same, so you just have to learn the spelling. Many, many other examples... Although on the scal

Could it be some other chemical to blame that you are exposed to day-to-day? With so many additives, preservatives, colorants, detergents, cleaning products, cosmetics, perfumes, paints, disinfectants, plastic packaging, synthetic clothing,

As someone working on linear extensions of partial orders (some of the time), I found your observation very insightful, a perspective I haven't considered before.

Also the " in the second paragraph feels a bit too far out to me, microtype does these things more subtly a bit.

Partly proves the point of the OP: cutting out the forests and draining the swamps led to soil erosion, massive floods, and loss of biodiversity. I'm not saying it had no reason or benefit, obviously it was for economic reasons (extra

Why would you think the same way about the benefits of plastic contamination as the benefits of red meat? One was consumed for millions of the years, the other has been around for decades.
