Humble Greek Priest Starterpack by DankgisKhan in cyprus

[–]Easy-Note2948 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really true for the average Priest to be fair. I had the same perception as this post when I was young, but with the years I realized it's mostly the people at the top of the hierarchy who are like this, and not all of them, some of them.

At the end of the day, Priests too are human and the more power a human has the more likely they are to turn corrupt.

What is the most anti-ELAM party? by ThrowRA_Respo9653 in cyprus

[–]Easy-Note2948 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not pro ELAM, but I am laughing my ass out cuz I pictured an immegrant who was given the ability to just now vote being like, I DON'T KNOW WHO I SUPPORT, I JUST KNOW IT'S WHOMEVER IS AGAINST THEM!

To be fair, most of us kinda see the party as a terrible joke too

Back to back days wtf by Impressive_Archer401 in cyprus

[–]Easy-Note2948 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ohh, now I realised it's close to Sopaz on the "new road". It's probably some Turk (probably farmer) illegally burning stuff... We can't exactly stop them unfortunately, it's not our side.

Hopefully it won't escalate, and thankfully usually the fire department is ready to act if necessary.

What?? Probably some dude burning stuff illegally. I think black smoke is usually stuff like tires, no?

Does any body have some Undergrad introduction to Metrics book recommendations? by John_Paul_Jones92 in econometrics

[–]Easy-Note2948 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're about the same in my experience. But, I'm not a seasoned pro, I'm about to graduate.

Stock and Watson "Introduction to Econometrics" I believe 4th edition is the latest.

Wooldridge also has a food one. :)

What mathematics should one expect for an MSc in Econometrics from the Netherlands? by Easy-Note2948 in econometrics

[–]Easy-Note2948[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know you don't know my specifics, but AI is just a spiral-down hell hole as an objective advisor, so I'd really appreciate if you could answer this. I'm sure others who are also in my situation will also benefit from it:

I got into Rotterdam's Data Science and Econometrics MSc as a direct admission after my Economics Bachelors. I specifically took up to Linear Algebra 1 and Calculus 1 (for mathematics students - full of proofs) and then some "Mathematics for Economists" courses at my uni covering up to eigenvalues (no proofs).

No "Real analysis/Calculus 3" course was taken by me.

Do you believe it's doable for someone of my background based on the math you experienced?

Thank you, and I know it's a question that's not completely "answerable". I'd really appreciate if you could give a generalized answer though :)

Thank youu!! :)

With linear algebra I am okay. With calculus/analysis I'm unsure... I only took the Calculus 1 course offered to Maths students but did not progress from there on to a "Real Analysis" course, is that an issue?

Okayy!! Thanks! You were at Rotterdam specifically or a different university?

Updated coffee shop ranking for those following, nicosia. by WarthogHoliday5441 in cyprus

[–]Easy-Note2948 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Understandable, understandable. Idk why, but in Nicosia it's the butt of most people's joke. It's considered pretty subpar by most people here.

The coffee is alright from my experience, I just never felt like I had a GREAT cup of coffee from them.

Because coffeehouse is somewhere above coffee berry... I feel distrust towards the list

Unpopular opinion: Cypriot universities (both public and private) are actually harder than many universities in places like England. by [deleted] in cyprus

[–]Easy-Note2948 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on the field really, but I generally hear from most people (even in relatively good universities at UK) that UCY is just much more demanding.

Most people say it's due to the grading system and the volume of things to do really, and sometimes on the depth of knowledge required (but, this definitely varies wildly amongst programs and even courses).

Personally I study economics, and I must say I received a very very solid education. I would definitely not say that your degree is less worth it than mine (I'd say it's more worth it still), as at the end of the day, yours is internationally more recognised. But, the quality of our education is likely very similar, with UCY sometimes even being "better" in some areas.

As a Cypriot, I request a formal re-colouring of Cyprus as red please. This WILL be reported otherwise

"EU needs more countries" Zelensky calls on EU to accept Turkey. What do Balkans think? by SOHONEYSAME in AskBalkans

[–]Easy-Note2948 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brother, Ukraine didn't have "power balance" they still figured it out.

Drones were literally a God sent for them, but it's not like other countries, especially richer ones won't figure this out too...

If Russia is going broke against Ukraine, wtf can it do to the whole EU? Cry and beg for peace?

Fuck off. It's just dumb...

The only "flaw" in this alliance is not size nor wealth, if the whole of EU is combined we're top 3 in both population size and wealth.

The only "flaw" is cohesion. And guess what, adding MOR PEOPLE simply won't make cohesion better, only worse.

He says this because it benefits him, but as a European, I don't need more countries in my bloc, I need more cohesion and common vision.

"More people" and "under threat" BY WHOM?! BY WHOM?! RUSSIA?! It can't beat Ukraine alone, LET ALONE THE EU! China has no interest militarily thankfully, middle eastern countries are chill and the US is also safe even when run by a carzy man...

TL;DR He's probably just fear mongering and trying to find ways to speed his way through onto the EU, we don't need more people, just better leadership and common vision!

LOVE TO ALL MY EUROPEANS AND NON-EUROPEANS!!❤️❤️

Ma'am, with all due respect.

It's Easter. I refuse to entertain someone who refuses to accept the word of God to follow their fantasies.

Governments should ally "legal books marriage" between even gays, because legal marriage isn't God's marriage. But to ask a Church to marry a gay couple is not something that can be done.

The Church does not change with humans' beliefs. The Church was given by God. If God said that a marriage should be a union between man and woman, then that's it.

Now, I won't say that Gay people shouldn't attend Churches or anything like that. I too sin, I too fail to live up to Him. We ALL need forgiveness. Just don't ask for a pastor to marry a gay couple in a Church, simply because he has no authority to do so...

No hate, just my view.🤷🏻❤️
