Yes, wanted to link it too. Actually, the changes are quite debatable. Since it simplifies economic model of the game, not adds flexibility as might be assumed at first. Even more, players already have been finding a way to deal with high r

I'm currently trying to migrate from Germany to Canada. It appears to me that the job market in Canada is horrible at the moment. I have 8YoE in Cloud and quite in demand in Germany(recently got a good offer, which i'm considering

I work a regular full time job in Germany. Plus do some investing and gigs. Declaring taxes every year. It's not fun at all, basically you have to prepare for it the whole year(keep track of your transactions, expenses). So i don'

I think that's the best explanation of the current situation in Europe. Just look at Germany, biggest economy in EU. It's treating it's migrant workers as slaves. Feeding failing pension system from them. Not giving any right

> That is a solved problem in many countries. No, it's not. Especially for cases, when the worker is a migrant from another country. I spent 3+ years of my life working in the country, paying huge taxes and huge healthcare insurance

I don't understand why people, on, supposedly, intellectual resource like HN, are offended when people state that women attracted to success(which can be measured in a multiple things, but right now, in the most places it's money)

Yes, exactly the example that i thought about. The pregnancy status is almost useless if the cause of death is missing. It gives no data on underlying problems that needs to be solved.

> New death certificates were introduced which identify whether a woman was pregnant at, or shortly before, their death—regardless of the cause So pregnancy is not necessary the cause of death? That is very important moment, which is ver

When you talking about "destroyed by bolsheviks" -- it was tens of thousands of people who participated in revolution directly. There obviously were reasons why so much people decided to go to such measures to overthrow the govern

Regarding Holodomor -- i'm still not convinced 100% that it was targeted starvation. Again, referring you to Stalin's letters: https://education.holodomor.ca/teaching-materials/primary-do...

I'm not sure what should i want to disagree about here. Putin is not a good guy in my opinion, as is Yeltsin. I don't think that natural resources, such as oil, should be privatized. To be honest, i think it shouldn't be nati

What was "good change for Russia"? Provisional government had a lot of decisions or rather "undecisions", for example regarding land policy. For which there was a huge support from peasantry. Then it's questionable

Agree. Arranged marriages worked for generations. And to me it looks like a perfect mechanism to tame hormone-induced young people, who, en masse, hurt not only themselves but whole society.

The international dating absolutely ruins dating for local guys. Look into Eastern Europe or even better, Thailand. Also, is it really long term solution to loneliness? If only motivation for marriage was to get the attractive citezenship,

That's one-sided view. Obviously the sexual market disposition is PROBLEMATIC to some(majority?) of men. Then minority of men will create PROBLEMATIC situation for the rest of society.

Couldn't the same be said about layoffs? They're certainly were planned long before the execution.

There's short street interviews(or rather attempts) of WEF participants, booming on Twitter from Rebel News. To be fair, questions asked by interviewers are often just provocative, still, arrogance in behavior of, specifically, CEOs is
