Fried fish is a big thing in Portugal and Galiza, in fact that's were the brits got the idea, but almost no one would rate it god tier among the local cuisine.

Does it predict people that allegedly finished university not knowing the difference between correlation and causality?

This reminds me of a fraud risk classification model I once heard about, which ended up being an excellent income-by-postal-code classifier.

Only the UK would classify something "fish and chips" as the pinnacle of their cuisine.

Those are all thing that can be controlled by the direct lead on any well run company.

I know from my own work that some mediocre middle managers wanted a rigid technological enforcement of the hybrid work framework and are probably dreaming about rolling out a "feature" like this.

Was it hoxhunt? It's a bit spammy but they seem to push for a more gamefied approach over collective punishment.

The North Atlantic Weather War is one of the most underrated parts of WW2.

The North-East Greenland Sledge/Sirius Patrol story in particular is long overdue a movie.

In this case, wanton disregard for other people, bordering on narcissistic solipsim.

That's the kind of problem capitalism is good at solving if the regulators are not captured.

  1. Change the constitution:
    1.1. Make the election to the House use proportional lists by state.
    1.2. Move most of the competencies of the Senate to the House. Replace the current Senate with state government representation like the German Bundesrat or the European Council (but weaker).
    1.3. Introduce a prime-minister office to lead the government, elected by the House. Remove most executive powers from the presidency.
    1.4. Put term limits on the supreme court, and make the election happen by 2/3 majority in the house to avoid partisan crackpots.
    1.5. Change budget rules to prevent shutdowns, by keeping a limited version of the previous year's budget if a new one is not approved
    1.6. Limit presidential veto
  2. Call for Elections
  3. Spend the time until the elections checking which conspiracy theories are true
  4. Resign
  1. could also be replaced with copying Germany's ~~home work~~ constitution and changing it a bit.
