> The process is difficult because I refuse to learn the language of the country. My first reaction was "What an absolute asshole"

To be fair, I think within the EU we definetely need a right to deal with all legal matters in english (at least inofficial translations). And I say this as someone who is native in German, speaks two other EU-official languages, and currently resides in another EU country which language I do not speak. "Learning a language" is just not something that you do overnight, it takes decades, especially when you are busy being a full-time entrepreneur. And within the EU, the idea is to boost cross-border entrepreneurship and economic growth. Wasting time on learning yet another language will not make me contribute to the economy.
I think the real value goes beyond a single individual: without proper education a society cannot succeed. Even from a purely economic perspective: you need smart and educated people to start and run companies, you need more smart and educated people for companies to succeed.
This is true (in most cases I assume), but it's users that make the free marketing, not the managers that pay the bills. They might say "productivity is up", but they don't say "I like using it". If you don't want to spend money marketing software, you probably want both of those kinds of free marketing.

I'm interested in what it says about the cause of tinnitus, since I know someone who suffers from it -- I've experienced ringing in my ears after deep breathing and it was a kind of spiritual thing, sounded like those singing bowls used in buddhism, lots of harmonics and tremolo. As I understand it, the tinnitus caused by hearing damage is not nearly so pleasant..

But if it can be activated by changing your O2/CO2 levels, maybe it could be deadened by some change as well?

Winamp 5.9 Final Released (26th July 2022)

> This is the culmination of 4 years' work since the 5.8 release.
> Two dev teams, and a pandemic-induced hiatus period inbetween.

> To the end-user, it might not seem like there's a whole heap of changes, but the largest and hardest part was actually migrating the entire project from VS2008 to VS2019 and getting it all to build successfully.

> The groundwork has now been laid, and now we can concentrate more on features. Whether fixing/replacing old ones or adding new.

That’s the point it makes. That crypto is not limited because anyone can make a new coin any time they want. While crypto zealots will insist that bitcoin is inherently valuable because you can’t create more.

But being limited has no inherent value.
The current price of nuclear power in the US and Europe is almost entirely due to overregulation combined with decades of dwindling expertise, with a sprinkle of corruption on top. If we remove this regulatory sabotage, nuclear energy can be produced at about ~$30-40/MWh [1] (At 3% discount rate, and in the case of the US/Europe with the assumption that excessive regulation is scaled back a notch.). If we build enough, we could bring that below $30/MWh from the efficiency of scale.

Green hydrogen tends to cost ~$100/MWh, just for the fuel. Building and operating the plants themselves comes on top of that.

Even if the fuel comes down to $40/MWh by 2050, as predicted in this article[2], it will still be competitive with properly organized nuclear.

Having started three companies in the UK, I have never required a lawyer nor have I advised many of the people who've asked about to get one. The process is extremely straightforward and fast, which obviously helps in making it easy to understand. Currently thinking about starting a company in Germany but the bureaucracy here feels bloated and protectionist rather than lean and facilitating. Like a massive overpriced American Ivy League university. If a company is so hard to start for people who don't know how to start a company, it's not exactly encouraging people to take a risk on a cool idea they have, is it?

For banks this often just isn't an option.

If nothing else, the core business of the bank is about borrowing cheaply (hence short term) and making risky, long term loans (hence bringing in interest).

If they want to finance the loans by long term loans themselves, much of the profit goes away and the business isn't sustainable.

It's obviously a sliding scale but that's the starting point.

Traditional powerplants are big nation-scale projects measured in decades and cannot be moved mid-lifecycle - unlike solar panels. They are also strictly dependent on running water for cooling. In my country (Poland) there has been a week few years back where some powerplants had to shut down because nearby rivers were too low and the water temperature was too high to cool down the powerplants (you cannot heat the water to 60 C cause the river life will die, so the workable temperatures are surprisingly low).

If you care about mobility and adjusting to climate change - you should bet on solar more than on anything else.

There are problems with renewables, but there are also many solutions, and the criticism usually assumes we change nothing else in our energy grid.

For example it's true that renewables are less predictable than traditional powerplants. Which increases costs of energy because we need to keep some overcapacity in production, consumption and transfer capabilities for balancing purposes and that's expansive.

But - grid-scale batteries solve a lot of these problems, and they aren't just a cost - they are earning money even in traditional grids by outcompeting peak powerplants without any subsidies. In fact people are afraid of how fast they are "destroying the market" for peaker plants and there are propositions to regulate this against the grid-scale batteries :) Batteries do the equivalent of high frequency trading on energy market and peaker plants have like 15 minutes latency vs batteries sub-second latency - you can imagine how it works out in practice. The Tesla battery in Australia already paid off the investment costs.

Another way is to produce synthethic fuel with cheap solar power when it's not used and then run the generators on that. Basically make methane tanks our batteries. There are promising technologies doing that, for example Terraform Industries.

Supposedly they can produce natural gas that is cheaper than the peak prices EU paid at the start of the russian invasion of Ukraine.

Another way is to simply build a lot more and to use smart pricing to encourage people to use the energy during the peak production. For most people it's perfectly fine to charge their cars at parkings near their office, it's just an organizational problem. Heating houses in the winter can also be done during the day - most houses in Central Europe can stay comfortably hot for longer than a day during the winter.

There are a lot of things we could do, but people who don't want anything to change take 1 thing they don't like and assume everything else stays the same so that the change seem impossible.
To be fair, the radiation is also non-iodizing!

I agree and have no qualms about adding it either in post or by deliberately shooting high ISO to enhance the grain.
This is raised by one of the peer reviewers and the authors reply (scroll down).
Agree that bribes should be part of the analysis, but I would do the comparison with the time and cost to accomplish a goal, without judging the method.

If you look at the outrageously high fees and lack of competition (notaries and tax accounts - yes there’s a bunch out there but it’s not the market dictating the fee and no guarantees that they won’t work towards a suboptimal outcome) I don’t really see how bribes are worse. In Germany corruption has just moved up the chain making everything expensive.

Overall it’s a lost opportunity to create wealth, jobs and a competitive advantage, both in India and Germany.

Then there’s the bit about personal preference. I didn’t see anything good in Germany, but happy for you if you do and live there.
> At this point I am convinced this is just mass hysteria

The mass hysteria was last year and the years before, this is a return to reality.
I'm not an expert at all. But I do try to keep up with some nutritional/exercise science as a complete layman. I highly highly recommend watching some videos on YouTube by Dr Mike Israetel (search Renaissance Periodization, and search for specific topics like "weight less", "healthy eating", etc.)

So here's my current summary of the evidence:

1. Obviously, everything depends on what your goals are.

2. Since you're lifting weights, I assume your goal is better body composition, which in most cases means losing fat and gaining muscle.

3. The main thing you need to do to lose fat is be on a caloric deficit. In order to lose mostly fat and not much muscle, you should be on the smallest caloric deficit you can reasonably manage, -300 calories per day is perfect. (Less than that and you can't really measure it accurately enough to see that you're actually losing fat.)

4. The other thing you need to do to not lose muscle is eat enough protein. Around 0.8 grams for each pound of body weight is probably good enough, though going up to 1 gram per pound is totally safe and makes sure you aren't getting too little protein.

5. How to achieve a caloric deficit mostly depends on what's easiest/funnest/best for you. Intermittent Fasting is very popular, because it makes it easy for many people to get a caloric deficit.

6. I personally don't love IF because it doesn't fit in with my life schedule, and personally prefer counting calories explicitly cause it's the most accurate and gives me the feeling of the most control, which I like. That said, it's a lot of work and isn't for everyone.

7. IF is not a panacea by any means. If you are doing IF but not actually getting a caloric deficit, it won't help you lose weight.

8. As far as I can tell, there are no known benefits to IF, health-wise. There's a lot of claimed benefits, but nothing actually proven. (And people claim health benefits for a lot of other things as well.) The only thing it's known to be good for is that a lot of people really like it as a way of managing calories/hunger. And there's plenty of anecdotal evidence that it actually helps for that - a lot of people really do find it easier to be on IF when they're dieting. If you're curious, totally worth just giving it a shot.

9. In terms of IF and weightlifting - technically speaking, a lot of studies have shown that it's best to get 4-5 protein feedings in a day, relatively spread out. So it's better to have 4 meals a day of protein than 2. As far as I can tell, this is a real effect, but it's not an enormous one. You're "leaving some gains on the table" if you do IF, but if it helps you reach a desired bodyweight, that's probably worth it. Especially since, after dieting down, you can start a bulking round of having a caloric surplus in order to actually gain weight and muscle.

I don't know about production quality but the innovation and substance of the stories are very good. I once saw an old UK TV series aired again few years back. The story was about a robbery. And each episode repeated the same story but from the perspective of various main characters of the drama. I forgot the name of the TV series but it was very innovative and engaging. This type of innovation happens a lot in the UK, Scandanavia, France, Germany and Italy. But they do not get enough exposure on the world stage and neither do they make the type of money Hollywood makes.

It's almost impossible to grow up in Germany and not be forced into English lessons. English is mandatory even for the lowest level of education. I can asses you, more or less everybody here does know at least some English.

But of course no official will talk to you in English. No way. Even if they could without much effort.

If you need to speak to an authority you need to do it in German. They will insist on that. Out of their perspective it's all about forcing you to "show respect" for the German authority.

Berlin is special anyway. It's more likely that some random dude on the street speaks English than German. I know people that live in Berlin for many years and still don't speak any German at all. In the day to day life that works out pretty well. The only occasions where they need to bring some native speaker with them is when they need to interact with the authorities…

On the countryside it's different though. Even everybody does also know English you wouldn't get away with not learning German; as not only the authorities would insist on speaking German. People will just ignore you and pretend they don't understand if you try to talk to them in a foreign language (even everybody understands at least some English).

Central banks, indirectly, can force people to use their currency (e.g. for taxes) and actively make decisions to try to follow a deliberate financial policy.

Their states command economic, diplomatic or military power which they often use to protect and develop their economies and the associated currencies. Often the decision makers are accountable in the form of elections and rule of law.

Crypto on the other hand is purely market driven and free floating. It's very easy for bad actors to manipulate the currency itself rapidly, something that does not happen to Dollars or Euros.

Cryptobros and others disagree whether anything outside of fully unregulated market forces is a good thing.
