I like how the USA had something like 1-2% of the world GDP in the year 1000, some 800 years before it started existing.

SENSUAL DAD KISS posted:Bitcoin is dumb as poo poo but what people who predict it's death always fail to account for the most important part of the equation, drugs. Anything that lets people get an eightball of coke for half street price is gonna be around for a while. Also I'm not sure how people decided a currency which keeps a log of every transaction ever made with the currency is good for illegal poo poo like buying drugs.

Subjunctive posted:If so, was it other than by hitting the database? Are they still doing it and jamming up threads? The other is that sometimes, somebody will make a post, but it won't show up until somebody makes another post in the thread, but will show up as an unread post in thread lists. (I think, I don't remember the exact symptoms.)

Yeah I didn't say you could affect things a lot. But "at all" puts it ahead of roulette.

Count Roland posted:Do you mean Nazi officers? I cannot believe that millions of soldiers got tailored uniforms, especially as the war progressed and got worse. Nazi uniforms were designed by a fashion designer to look good, and this came at the expense of them being pretty bad at being something for, you know, fighting and marching and doing general soldier stuff in. Der Kyhe posted:That is giving quite a lot of confidence to the German Intelligence at time not being completely incompetent, filled to a brim with political appointments and "true believers". Phy posted:I don't believe the puppetmaster excuse when it's people getting probed for trolling, why on earth would I believe it about Nazis building another cyclopean overengineered tank

Dienes posted:Its not nearly as simple as that - its a combination of probability and delay discounting. The kids who don't wait tend to engage in more risky behavior, more drug use, more crime, lower grades, have higher rates of divorce, higher BMI, lower savings, etc. even after you control for differences in incomes. Its a self-perpetuating cycle in which an impoverished environment teaches you to ask impulsively (because the second marshmallow may never come), but then that same impulsivity interferes with your chances of getting OUT of an impoverished environment.

Just curate your dataset so that, say, Yellow and Blue have no overlap except where they also overlap with Green or Red, simple!
