Have you ever lived anywhere else other than the UK? Almost everywhere in Europe has all the nice things you described, but cost of living is lower (parity adjusted - meaning you make less than in London in absolute terms, but the money buys you more quality of life).

No, it's a consequence of British rent-seeking culture, where all policy at the end of the day is evaluated by the question: does it make property prices go up or down, and if down we don't do it.

> Are there any downsides doing this though?

I have a different question for you, which is: what are the upsides? If you're doing because you think it's fun to share interesting stuff say that, but let's be clear about it.

You think the kind of propaganda you find on CNN is similar to the propaganda on Pravda...

Guys! I think I found one!

> You are correct, it has taken a dip recently. .011 now vs. .013 before.

You represent this ratio as 0.011 vs 0.013 to pretend it's a small difference, when in reality it's a 15% difference which is huge in forex. You're just fundamentally dishonest.

Funny, but what's the point?

In the UK you get 24 per day for all causes, and 0.8 per day for non natural causes. First off, the specific number you get depends on how your slicing the data. A 30 yo person doesn't have the same chance of dying from "all causes" as an 80 yo one. Second, comparing sports vs all causes is useless because all causes it's not really actionable. I could compare amongst sports to pick the least risky ones, but I can't choose to not be exposed to all causes.

Any thoughts?

> And last I saw the Russian currency was doing great

1 ruble is about 1cent lol

Like I said, I'm not sharing anything because you've already made up your mind. Ive skimmed your comment history and you're one of those "america bad" committed ideologies. Sorry, there's nothing I can do for you.

Uh oh there goes 500 more hours.

Interesting. Sounds like we should be sending them drone munitions then.

I mean, is it interesting? I'm sure it's a daily fact of war that conditions are never optimal and you try and adapt. I'm also sure there's a feedback loop somewhere with Ukrainians telling the west how much of which things theyd rather have.

So sure, let's send them more drone munitions, but why is this on HN? Oh right, because someone thought it was interesting.

> Except that they're proven to not work

If that's your objection, I have great news for you. They are proven to work, there's already scientific research in the case of Russia and Ukraine. You can't be bothered to inform yourself so I won't be bothered to search for a reference.

Well. Enjoy your jail time I guess.

Edit: looking into this guy and the volume of illegal stories he tells, I'm convinced that his real gig is being an "influencer".

I enjoyed the read, but I'm suspicious of the mention of Tucker Carlson as some sort of champion.

Somehow I don't think they would've written the headline "american astronomer discovers..." If the person had been american. To me it kind of seems like "oh look Spanish people trying to do science, so cute".

Yes but I bet you she's precisely the kind of person that when it matched her priorities, she sold it as a value in itself. Never outsource your critical thinking, I always say.

Why is the fact that the person is Spanish relevant enough to merit being included in the headline?

So you're saying she was playing a character for her book? That's impossible.

Funny how the crypto people always think they found a legal loophole. "Akcshually the contracts...." They're like the sovereign citizens of tech.

What's wrong with debian?

So you're saying she was playing a character for tv? That's unheard of.

Lol that last word has a z, a prz, a cz, and a sz.

If you call the Facebook customer support number they should be able to walk you through the steps.

Restating the same fact per days instead of per year doesn't change the facts. And the fact is it all adds up. The list of things that Twitter isn't paying is huge.

You don't seem to understand how business works. If he's putting his own money into it he can't say that his business is profitable.

Lol what a shithole country.

Tesla isn't getting anything. Twitter is getting money. That's the point.

He's moving money from a company that he controls to a company that he owns wholly. In other words, using Tesla shareholder money to get himself out of a tight spot. Sure looks like fraud to me.

It's funny. When you point something bad about Russia, the response is always "america does it too".

Do you people realize how weak that makes you look? Imagine if when america does something bad, the response was "Russia does it too". Do you realize why that scenario sounds ridiculous? Because Russia doesn't matter.

Obvious chatgpt

I'm halfway thru the second lecture, and what an absolute find :-)

That sucks. That guy will 100% guaranteed kill someone again. Portugal is the same except instead of 40 it's 25 if I remember correctly. Egregious.

> In conversations over the course of a year, the only person I hear him express something like friendship for is Tucker Carlson, the recently deposed Fox News host. “He’s my type of guy. We’re the same type,” he says, though he won’t say more.

(...)

> He begins to unspool a series of conspiracy theories, threaded with racial slurs: The United Nations was plotting to take away America’s weapons. He writes, “The Jew has been poluting the country with moral filth through the movies radio and TV” in a campaign to push Black men “next to the white woman.” People like them needed to band together to protect the country, he concluded. “Every person in this country who is white and Christian has a job to do.”
