Hmmm, being from Europe and having driven on a holiday in the US, I'd say that people are more careful and respect rules better in the US than in Europe (certainly than Southern Europe, but even in parts of the North).…
Just another data point: walking to work takes 15 minutes for me. Same time by metro. Driving is 45-60 minutes.
> many Spanish speakers use "Americano" to refer to inhabitants of the Americas, and since that word looks like "American" in English, many of these Spanish speakers believe English speakers should modify the meaning of…
That's what I wrote, that in English speaking countries you refer to the whole continent as "the Americas". The name "America", though, was given to the whole "New World", which is what we now call "America", the…
Yes. America. I know, I know. English speaking countries refer to the continent as "the Americas" rather than America, as the rest of the planet does but, then, the rest of the planet refers to the "United States of…
The pure text editing is just a tiny detail. I exclusively use vim keybindings inside Emacs, as many others do. Emacs makes extending the editor a breeze. As a new user this just means that you have packages (like VS…
> Italy, like the rest of south europe is hobbled by an army of bureaucrats doing busywork and their jobs are the first to be threatened by an AI speaking fluent Italian. So it helps them to keep unemployment from…
In some countries, the word "Government" is used to refer to the Executive power, not including the Legislative and Executive branches of the State.
You are right: here in the EU we often refer to ourselves as 'Europeans', thus implicitly excluding people from the non EU part of Europe. That's inacurate (and a bit disrespecful to non-UE Europeans, if you ask me).…
Exactly. Brexit long term net effect could be a few points off their GDP. That's not the end of the world, but it's certainly significant and it will make British people a poorer, which of course has an impact on public…
Euro Area inflation is significantly lower than UK, same as Germany, France, Spain, ... In the EU as a whole it's slightly higher because of the East countries (Hungary, Romania, Latvia, Estonia, ...) where inflation is…
Exactly! In fact, it would be wonderful if you had some standard way of producing different units at different scales for a given magnitude, upwards or downwards, so you could use the best in a given context. Perhaps…
Well, if you take population into account (even just the EU part of Europe has more population than the US) the difference between US and Europe is not that big. China though...
It depends on what you consider "biased". If you ask chatGPT whether 2 + 2 is 4 or 5, would you consider it biased if it said that 2 + 2 = 4? If you asked it whether smoking increases or decreases the probability of…
Considered far-left in any country in Western Europe? (genuine question). I follow USA news a bit and nothing comes to my mind right now that could be considered far left around here. But of course I don't follow every…
I understand that this means "center" as per USA standards. Given that USA leans towards the extreme individualism and quite strongly to the right (Sanders would be considered center-left in Western Europe) I guess this…
It's very ironic that the meme 'meme' mutated itself to become something much less sophisticated (an image with a caption shared on the Internet) than its original (and true) meaning. Just another proof that meme…
You mean that "Nobody wants to work anymore" is a successful meme, then.
If you install Doom Emacs [1] after installing Emacs itself, I think it would be a couple of days. At least if you can live with the things Doom comes with. It's just a matter of following the instructions, uncommenting…
Unfortunately, that doesn't solve the problem. The issue is not which labels keys have printed on them. I don't look at my keyboards and I always remap keys for them to be in the positions I like. That's fine and works…
I'm quite sure it's just a question of what you are used to. It is for me, anyway. My first PC (~year 2000) came with Windows but I wanted to use some software that only existed for Unix at the time and I was used to…
There are no comparable laptops to M[1,2] Macs, AFAIK. Linux on an M1 simply flies. It's just stupidly quick. A MacBook with Linux is the most amazing Linux machine that exists, even without the GPU acceleration. I…
I'd say that Racket makes for an easier introduction to Lisps, at least for people not familiar with the functional paradigm. The reason for this is that Clojure intentionally discourages many common imperative idioms…
We have people trying to protect Nazis from kidnapping the public conversation. Not very successful in the last ~10 years, though.
We tried free speech on the 20s and 30s. Didn't go well.
