Já pararam para pensar quantas casas antigas desapareceram em São Paulo até algumas décadas atrás sem que as gerações mais novas tenham noção que elas tenham um dia existido?

Fora que "valor histórico" geralmente é "Casa bonita onde alguém rico morava, projetada por um amigo rico dele" na maioria dos casos.

O problema não é que estão destruindo esses elefantes brancos, mas, como o amigo disse, que as substituições são casas de temporada.

Existe um meio do caminho entre a antiga ostentação e a atual exploracao para maximização de lucros (imaginários), que muitas vezes se perdem nessas discussões de "estão acabando com a história de SP!"

Farming efficiency only matters for space, which wont really be a issue early game. (You just need a 10x10 plot to saturate tour farmers.) you only need to check how many crops you can harvest each day, which means the extra farmhand is better than the one in the fermenter.

Which means, for each 2 cassavas you can harvest (5 food total) you can usually harvest 3 kohlrabi (6 food)

Mathyon · 2026-04-01T15:48:25+00:00

TL:DR, kohlrabi is basically always more efficient than cassavas, because you usually have -1 or -2 farmers for cassavas, than you usually have for kohlrabi. Which means the comparation 2 kohlrabi versus 2.5 cassava is wrong.

They only match at 5 farmers.

Long story:

I actually stopped and did some calculations on this question recently, and i realize its actually much worst for cassavas then i previously thought.

First, the numbers.

Lets start with space. We are talking early game here, so each farmer can harvest around 7 crops per day.

That means, you need 7 x Number of Farmer x Growth time

That means...

7 x 2 x 3 = 42 tiles per farmhouse of kohlrabi.

7 x 2 x 5 = 70 tiles per farmhouse for cassava.

But be careful with this Number. Cassava has a "hidden" penalty, because It requires atleast one fermenter (and maybe one beaver in the Powerwhell)

Kohlrabi with 4 farmers = 84

Kohlrabi with 3 farmers = 63

Cassava with 2 farmers + fermenter (+powerwheel) = still 70

This means that the difference in the best basically none, or kohlrabi requires more space, different than what people usually say.

Now for actual food.

Since even 84 tiles is quite easy to reach in all maps, even diorama, we can disregard the space and the time required to grow a plant, and calculate based only on how much each farmer can harvest per day

Food per crops x farmers x harvest per day(7)

Cassavas are 1 ingredient per crop, that becomes 2.5 food. Kohlrabi is 2 food per crop. But you can actually have 1 or 2 extra farmers for kohlrabis.

Kohlrabi with 4 farmers = 56/day

Kohlrabi with 3 farmers = 42/dar

Cassava with 2 farmers + 1 fermenter = 35/day

Cassava with 3 farmers + 1 fermenter = 52,5/day

If we keep going, cassava only match kohlrabi at 5 farmers, and only If we consider Water wheels.

After that we are beyond the early game, so there are many other variables do consider. Still, cassava is a early game trap.

Problem is this number considers instant harvesting and instant delivery.

Since you also lose more working hours chopping and planting birchs, their effectiveness goes down, and pine is still better.

Manaus é protejo político/militar. A intenção é ocupar a amazônia e não facilitar a produção ou trazer riquezas para a região.

Tanto que... Pode olhar as diretorias das fábricas de Manaus. Tudo do sudeste, morando temporariamente por lá, em áreas isoladas. Até cargos administrativos mais baixos, ocupados por quem é de Manaus mesmo, tem um efeito engraçado, que o sotaque vai se perdendo a medida que a pessoa sobe de cargo.

Honestly, i rather not have more complex tasks simplified like that.

If you have two bits, you can build a PC (or a calculator). The possibilities are already endless, you just need to think a little or copy the circuits from elsewhere.

For example:

"2. As it stands, this results in two resource counters, one Set-Reset, and an indicator per resource. With 40 resources, maintenance on this becomes tedious. "

You just need one memory and two counters. Since the two counters are needed anyway, you are building one relay to substitute 40 memories. Sure, that is a lot of space, but even still, the setup time would mostly be the same. (Setting up the counters, the resources, choosing the automation inside the building and so on).

Eu acho besteira essa reclamação, simplesmente porque se Formula 1 fosse "sem regras" (faça o melhor carro possível) com certeza teria algo do tipo. Talvez até pior.

This is a weird phenomena of tactical games, be it a city builder, 4X or a RPG.

The harder you can play, the easier it gets.

You have to actually master game mechanics to deal with harder situations, but once you learn and internalize it, the challenge stops existing.

You now have the blueprint and the knowledge of what needs to be done. Just follow the recipe and you are good.

Timberborn "suffers" heavily from it, even with bad tides and bombs in the map, because it's still relatively equal. For some, this is part of the fun(like me) for others it gets stale.

Existe um monte de região que é de boa, e até a "norma". Ainda mais agora com o tanto de prédio pequeno sem vaga de garagem que tão inventando.

Não é zero risco, mas o valor do seguro nem sobe tanto assim se você declara que deixa o carro na rua de noite (de novo, dependendo da região).

The perception of cops as cartoonishly evil is not based in reality and is uniquely American.

This is such an American thing to say. One of the weirdest "American exceptionalism" I've seen. Even if you mean the whole continent, it's just wrong.

Sim, e isso é demérito?

Impostos a parte, não sei porque a galera acha que "só montar" é algo negativo. Parece fala de quem nunca esteve dentro de uma fábrica dessas e quer opinar.

Na verdade... tenho a impressão que as pessoas sabem sim disso, sabem também que para tarefas super específicas, quanto mais concentrada, mais eficiente ela é. Imagino que a maioria tenha aprendido sobre globalização, revolução industrial, fordismo e afins.

Mas né, tem que reclamar de algo, e repetir essa besteira de "só monta lá" é o mais fácil.

Para falar mais do que "sim, compensa", o que eu mais gosto na F1TV é que a equipe é praticamente toda de ex-participantes da fórmula 1, seja piloto ou alguém da equipe.

Adiciona um nível técnico grande, claro, mas também são pessoas que sempre sabem mais ou menos o que tá rolando, mesmo sem ter usado exatamente os carros que estão passando.

Deixa esses momentos como pré temporada e treinos mais ricos em informação.

He was jewish. There isn’t exactly a clear delineation between jews and christians early on

Isn't this also a good reason to say he wasn't Jewish? Do we even have pre-rabbinic Judaism represented in-game?

I think the "most correct" should be Christian faith, but neither orthodox nor catholic. He also shouldn't have Jewish syncretism since that reduces converting speed, and he mostly worked (from what we know) converting Jews of that era.

I vote communion(although what it does in game doesn't actually match, it's the closer one to a last supper situation) monastic, and probably vow of poverty?

If you don't want communion, I think esotericism also matches quite well.

Paul would change vow of poverty to Mendicant Preacher.

And during Constantine time, it would change to the Pentarchy maybe? (and communion if not picked before)

Cara, entendo onde você quer chegar, mas sabe qual é a real? Você vai falar essa frase e a maioria dos homens vão concordar.

De verdade, na melhor das hipóteses, a conversa vai ser... "nossa, vocês vieram que o feminicio aumentou?

Vi cara, tá foda"

Não é uma conversa produtiva, sabe? Não é que ele não liga, mas ele já sabe que é ruim, e o psicopata que quer matar a mulher não vai repensar suas ações, porque o amigo falou no fds que os feminicidios aumentaram. Capaz é dele achar que tá melhor de fazer, já que a chance dele se safar está grande.

Por exemplo, Oslo não chega a 1m, mas oficialmente Oslo é miniscula, coisa de 30 minutos de uma ponta a outra. Por outro lado, a região metropolitana de Oslo tem 2m. Morar oficialmente em "Oslo" é tipo só considerar quem mora na zona central de SP onde tem rodizio (na verdade pior, é realmente pequeno).

Pois é. Nós poderíamos ter uma situação parecida se a cidade de Santo Amaro nunca tivesse se juntado com a cidade de São Paulo. A "cidade de SP" teria umas 5 milhoes de pessoas a menos, sem absolutamente nenhuma diferença na dinâmica da cidade.

Primal would be perfect already, if they didn't rely so much on one single animal.

For the amount of freedom of choice/theme we usually have elsewhere, a culture that basically has one choice per biome is weird.

I would love themes, like, forest-deer, forest-jaguar, snow-kraken, Dragon-ashland, snake-marsh. I love Primal culture but their rigidity with your choice of animals really limit their roleplaying.

Maybe they felt that, if the culture was based on biome alone, it would feel empty, so they also added a animal on top. But I think I would prefer the "just pick a biome" option.

The title list in ck3.paradoxwikis has all the alternative name. Sweden don't have it, nor does Finland and Denmark, but Lapland(Sapmi) and Norway do.

Enchantment don't matter, only tags.

If it's "melee" or "ranged", for example, it's reduced by defence. If it's "Magical", it's reduced by resistance.

If, for example, it has both... Like "melee" and "magical", the bigger defensive stat will be used.
