    Can't speak to your issue in Austria with over 200 pages. Never encountered that in Germany. Germany has removed Meisterzwang for some areas - so there is that. If people want to r…

    Societies get to decide on their "traditions" and they need not be efficient - the "new world" has oddities there, too. (Not sure how guilds in cities relate to kings if we are tal…

    Not the OP, but I don't think you can. The understanding someone manufacturing silicon has will be not be attainable by reading about it etc. Similar for QM, no replacement for doi…

    Not wanting to move might have costs. Yes, local integration has value, but also means you had to stick around to get there - comes with a cost. And local people show plenty abilit…

    There has been at least indirect state support for some by support for the automotive industry. They might have gotten squeezed as a supplier but the ecosystem got help to keep mov…

    Well, people could move to places with higher wages (e.g., cities), no? Being in a place where you could help shape local politics seems like a good move, no? What is the issue wit…

    From a quick read: ECMWF and IBTrACS data - the former is model based (with measurement data crunched), the latter purely observational.

    What is rational? Who determines what is a true constraint vs a choice, etc.?

    Not sure how easy it is to create a connection to the main power grid without the required credentials.

    Just wanting to cure cancer doesn't mean it would be accomplished - vote or not.

    So regardless of effort and result, AI use for image creation is wasted time for you?

    Somewhat similar to 1992, which had a very hot August and 2nd half of July.

    What if you go through a couple of hours prompting and thinking to get to right image? What is the cutoff to "lazy" or "zero value"?

    So what about the use of the odd AI generated icon, not some extensive use?

    Comment #49168410

    That is one use. Images (incl. icons) can also be there to structure text and provide visual clues on what is where.

    NS1 had like 30% of German gas imports (Russia in total around 50%).
