I can't imagine living in a city where this is not the norm

On the flour part we could maybe agree, but telling me that fruit is not good for me is just plain wrong.

What is wrong with carbs now?

I don't think any job/career/being employed (99% of the time) is a right path to "fuck you money", it's mostly entrepreneurship

I would like to buy a 4k Ultra Wide monitor at some point, can the Air support it?

How do you explain Bayern in Germany then?

Did you try it?

A Short History of Nearly Everything by Bill Bryson

I remember a quote from somewhere: "If you are winning it's not gambling". If you beat the rake and have an edge over the other players it's just a mind game of dealing with variance.

I don't agree with your statement but I agree it's not a cause to get downvoted. Russia stretched from the Baltic sea to the Black sea for a good part of history so calling Russia north Europe is wrong imo. And Germany was always center Europe

I wonder how much it's connected with risk aversion and if it does, does it have any correlation with future economic growth?

Looking at your table, from 1953 to 1991 number of serbs actually grew, it's just that number of albanians grew at a much higher rate, so their % increased. As to what happened in the next 10 years to the serbian population, I don't know, you suggesting that they were deported by the albanians?

I think genocide and mass deportions are a good enough reason

If a country spends i.e. 100MW of electricity, how much does it need to be able to produce to be safe when the circumstances aren't favorable for max production? Or will we always need non-renewable sources for this issue?

The most eye-opening documentary IMO

Thanks for the link, It was a hosting site that was breached. How can it be that they were able to get my password, shouldn't they encrypt it?

https://airtame.com/ Really looking forward to this. Time to get rid of the cables

Isn't that contradictory? Investing in technology that makes workers more productive would have a result of needing less workers?

You mean something like the Surface Book?

I'm starting a web app that would function as a private space. Something like a combination of the facebook wall where you can post stuff that you want to remember, a journal, notes, to-do's, calorie counter plus some more stuff. It will be modular so you can add the stuff that you want to use and remove those that you don't use.
