What else are you going to do? Save for a house who's price rises faster than you can earn money?
Yes but its probably the same causal factors - people being placed in command of vessels they don't actually understand how to operate.
We always were a maritime nation until sailing became closer to flying and programming.
NZ and ship autopilot just aren't working together well are they?
No, buts its definitely recommended and advised.
Effectively, no one can buy Russian goods so no one wants to buy Russia currency.
As such, it has low value as everyone is trying to get rid of something that is worthless to them, and a willing to accept a lower price to do so.
Or using high school economics- lots of suppliers, low number of buyers, value drops.
Really sad - a similar game to the ME series would be a welcome change and if done right could be drawn out for years
Damn squid, is there anything your family group doesn't do.
And for the record, id still call it OC. Its not your photo, but you posted it first so it is "original".
It could drive up domestic production, however there us a good reason we import, which is similar to your last point.
Bad example, but its the same reason you "import" Mexican workers - their skills and work ethic, along with willingness to work long hours for low wages. You aren't going to get hundreds of thousands of Americans to decide to work in a sweat shop, or on farms, or doing handyman work for the same wages.
I was going to mention the low cost of a life in China, and the lax H&S, ethic and environmental regulations, but America is trending that way too.
No, the first page is how it introduces inefficiencies into a supply/demand equilibrium, resulting in a lower quantity supplied and at a higher price.
No one who every studies economics, even in passing, would even consider another country paying a tarrif for something you buy. The concept is just.... what?
Don't interrupt an enemy when he's making a mistake
Handles and foot rests are different colors.
Very confusing as someone who IDs port and starboard
Pretty accurate assessment of your future karma. Is it still called karma?

Auckland regional fuel tax looking to be scrapped
Look, we need the money and fuel is bloody expensive, but I believe we are adding another problem to the next generation and regressing further.
The tax sucks, but the benefits were worth it.
does this new years feel subdued to anyone else, even after taking the weather into account?
Like the whole country is just exhausted
opinion: The NZ dream and culture has made us fall behind as a country.
Don't know the best way to put this but ill try.
As much as I love this country, we have fallen soo far behind. I don't want to get to political, but I think Labour tried to fix it in one way, now Nat will try the other. Neither will work in the time they have.
We always prided ourselves on our past accomplishments- women vote, Hillary, Rutherford, Nuclear Free, Maori Batallion - and what we are as a country - massive dairy producers, amazing tourist destination, friendly people. But we have dwelled on it too long and got complacent. Our desire to repeat our past success has made us miss opportunities that require years of investment, and meant we are now in a cultural and economic hole that will be increasingly difficult, expensive and time consuming to get ourselves out from.
We have a tiny population and limited housing in an empty country where people have limited desire and finances for kids. Massive farms that produce income for a few overseas investors or historic families. Massively increasing inflation and cost of living due to our long supply chains and small industry base, especially compared to overseas. Falling education at a time we needs teachers, medical persons, engineers and tradies... unis are slashing courses, councils are running out of money, and overseas investors will funnel more out of the country.
I just want others thoughts around this - I have multiple ideas and theories, but I want to hear from you all.

cross posting from reddit - any coders happy to put in some leg work?
Hi all,
Reddit refugee here. I've been following hfy for a number of years and am invested quite heavily in a number of stories. I usually read on mobile on my lunch break, but with rif going and the shocking app it's replaced with I can no longer do so - just log in via computer every week or so to catch up.
What I am interested in is seeing if any coders here are able to make a bot that pulls ongoing stories from r/hfy when they are updated (first contact, TFTR.etc) and ask the authors if they are ok with it being automatically posted to lemmy as well?
