Oh boy :) I think that would come with IERS Tax.
that's an excellent take
Pity, copper made everything better.
Some of the titles aren't translated - a cursory search did not turn up a downloadable version of the Bull's Hour, but search flibusta - titles are in russian but thanks to AI ...
Since we are on the topic of russian literature I'd definitely recommend reading something other than the usual suspects Dostoevsky and Tolstoy. One of my personal favourites is Bulgakov'с Master and Margarita and The…
Russians consider their profession a calling and try to be the best at it. Makes big difference when it's calling and not just-a-job. I dunno what attitude russia's gen-z holds towards profession but in my time it was…
Not only that. Corporations are filled with excellent software developers from Russia who did not go to any specialized schools or graduated from prestigious universities.
>Giant trees have no trouble pumping water to top branches Hm, may be because they are not really "pumping" the water?
I spent nothing on US election this year and nothing in all previous years. Partly, because I am not from US, but largely because I have no interests to lobby! Are elections that run on donations can be considered truly…
It could lead to amazing advances in the distant future but in the near future it just means finding unwilling donors fast! Our society once again is not mature for such technology
I feel we are there already. The weather is a bit rainy now but there is sun in the forecast for afternoon. ^^^ that is all we have left to discuss already in personal conversations at work anyways.
If we agree that politicians are removed from democratic process then there is really no democratic process at all.
Your risk conclusion elite club this way. So I think this makes the idea less interesting.
No, you just need to be on a regular good maintenance schedule!
yeah, definitely an organic think-tank behind this and other initiatives.
You mentioned NY - logical to look at NY then no?
I'd say at least 2K. But the poster above says it's over 3K.
well, if one bedroom now goes for 2000$ that's x4 increase where as the 72K vs 35K is only x2 increase So, no, your math doesn't work.
Not true. Rent for one bedroom apartment was 500$ in 1998, cold / hot water included other utilities are extra. I was making 35K back then and it was enough to afford relatively good living - car, groceries, gas,…
But the governments had been this way for decades now. It's just that things are accelerating and people notice it more.
>AI demands more engineering discipline. Well, that's a loaded statement. I'am yet to see a Claude session where Claude would tell me to hold off and make my prompts more disciplined. So it does not demand more…
Most of the west is going to be fucked. We, in the west, are optimizing towards more profit. Poor get poorer every year and rich get richer. We lead multiple wars which we finance with public money. The profits go to…
Exactly!
I honestly don't know how uber drivers can even make a living with the price of gas and upkeep for the car [being as hight as it is]. How many hours a day do they work? I know there is a 12 hour limit at Uber but you…
All the great art should teach us that we can't take riches to the grave, it's too bad that this is being forgotten. Then again, may be they already figured out how to make their lives meaningfully longer. I often think…
