@octal Which part of Italy did you go to? I have been to Southern Italy as an American and the touristy parts were amazing and beautiful but outside of the tourist areas it seemed kind of dysfunctional, alot of stuff was slow or just didn't work.
@Civixplorer Funny how all the NATO countries we protect are the ones who hate us. We fulfilled the bottom of their maslow's hierarchy of needs for so long they forgot life consists of more than virtue signaling.
@antibearthesis It was valued at over 2 Trillion, it's an amazing company but not worth 2 Trillion (yet) so it was inevitable that it would crash from that ridiculous valuation
@Sierra_rak In the US Socialism is popular in areas where most people have a college degree but are not married yet. They feel as if they are entitled to own everything but they don't actually own anything yet.
@RhinoInsight My AI thesis is we should give AI drugs. Study the effects each drug has on human neurons, then for each drug implement those changes on the association patterns of LLM neurons. So for a creative task you could give your LLM psychedelics.
@DisgracedProp To be fair this is partially the fault of white people. I remeber my freshmen classes being very white and my senior classes being very Asian which implies alot of whites didn't make it past the weeder classes. (I also am white and had to retake some but most whites just give up)
@AzizSunderji The reason those areas are so old is beacuse they don't build enough new housing and no young people can afford to buy and of the existing housing. Overpriced areas become naturally occurring retirement communities.
@Chris_arnade The UK should get rid of the green belt between Manchester and Liverpool and allow them to merge into a DFW style metroplex to the UK can have a second globally competitive metro area
USA Life Expectancy vs Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, and Greece. Data from World Bank and University of Wisconsin Population Health Institute. Music: Sands of time - Patrick Patrikios, Bali Bali - Doug Maxwell & Jimmy Fontanez, Greek Dance - Audionautix. #lifeexpectancy#data
@ryanburge Nigeria is in a pretty rough spot given 71% of the population think their religion is only acceptable one but the country is roughly 50/50 Muslim/Christian. It seems like conflict there is inevitable.
@VicctorianChad The house gets less ugly over time as the trees in the yard bro, the apartment block gets more ugly over time as the concrete starts to crack
@sharghzadeh Sidewalks in other parts of the world are even worse. I've been in parts of Italy where there is no sidewalk despite being in a dense area where most people do not have cars. There will be 1 lane roads with people trying to walk and drive in both directions.
@VisualCap Does this include data from bars or just liquor stores? Wisconsin is suspiciously low but maybe that makes sense if the data is only for liquor stores because Wisconsin has more of a bar culture.
@HEAVY_SLAYER Yup, precisely the new money suburbs more so than the old money suburbs. They like McMansions far from the CBD rather than historic mansions close to the CBD.
Charlotte NC has a large number of Indians 🇮🇳 and Hondurans 🇭🇳. Indian immigrants like downtown and the suburbs while Honduran immigrants like in the outer parts of Charlotte city proper. #Northcarolina#Geography
