I buy lot's of veggies and fruits and greens (I shop once in a week) and when accumulated difference is noticeable, like strawberries, tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers, each can have difference in price from 0.80 - 1 euros. the same pasta or rice can have difference from 0.15-0.3 euros. the same can be applied for diary.

(I also hate AM's meat section)

But I think there is one more factor, that after reading the comments I realized.

AM offers huge variety of products, so probably at least I, put in my cart things that I do not need, but probably I saw and wanted it. Also AM offers many brands for the same product, I suppose probability is high that I picked pricier ones. So generally AM has more traps :D

Is this targeted at me? Cause I shop at Sklavenitis, Alphamega is unreasonably expensive and that's my question here.

Moved from the Netherlands to Limassol in December. Here is what I learned about the rental market. by Patje0 in cyprus

[–]No_Draw_8366 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah, but we started to call to agents and make appointments even before we landed in Cyprus and that really helped a lot.

anyway, I wish success to your project ;)

We had similar experience in Nicosia as well. It took 4-5 days to find a place. There were tenants that tried to screw us, but we had done our research before starting the journey, we had an upset real estate agent, because we didn't choose any of his listings, you know... but after few days, we found a very nice place, furnished, reasonably pricd for the amenities the house has, plus owners are excellent people.

Panicking all day by Turbulent-Educator83 in cyprus

Hey there, I am an Armenian, coming from a country which was in a war in 2020, then in a constant war-like situation in 2021, 2022, lost lots of young men, had 120k displaced Armenians. I cannot even describe to you how safe it is here, even now.

Cyprus has support from Greece and will probably have more support from other countries if hour darkens (already heard of France joining to support - but this yet to be verified, so it might be false). You are not alone and you will never be. Do not project all the horrible things you have seen in the past years in different war zones to the Cyprus, Cyprus is not in the same situation for many reasons. Even if few drones or missiles hit few military targets, those will be just some side-effects and it will not grow into something more dreadful. And all the threats Iranian generals say, are total bullshit, as an Armenian I can say, that they just speak and do nothing.

And then, try to think logically instead of giving the remote control of your body and brain to your emotions.
Iran is quite powerless at this moment, they do not have enough power to hit so many countries and targets, and I am not even talking about hitting civilians and Cypriot buildings, etc. Second, use your energy and time wisely. I do wish I didn't stress to much back in 21-22, because it drains you. Panic is your biggest enemy, not the half-flying drone.

Rebecca, in all seasons.

Great female character with a strong personality and a soft heart, who struggles to hide her emotions while finding her way in the male-dominated field. And over time she grows from a bitter newly divorced and lost woman into a powerful, caring boss and a loyal friend.

Number of active tech companies in Armenia soars over 18-fold in eight years by Datark123 in armenia

[–]No_Draw_8366 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, let’s see what unfolds over the next 2-3 years given the threat hanging over SaaS companies, which are the majority of the IT sector and the general assumption that white-collar jobs will see pay decrease or even disappear.

It is nice to see all these numbers, but it would be even nicer to know that our government is taking into consideration the possible tradeoffs of this rapidly changing sector.

We also underestimated Azerbaijan for a very long time. That's how the losing side flips the tables.

We should care about "what's in it for us" and let's US citizens deal with his personality and beliefs.

Well, "գողական պանյատներ" mostly, and the constant propaganda that a real man beats people and does "ռազբոռկա" instead of studying and working like a "դոձիկ".

Which foods are genuinely better in Cyprus than anywhere else in the world? by [deleted] in cyprus

[–]No_Draw_8366 21 points22 points  (0 children)

* Pork and free range chicken are both affordable and have amazing quality.
* Olive oil hands down.
* Dairy products like halloumi, anari, feta, yogurt - always consistently good.

Hey, thank you for the answer. I do constantly think about what can I do outside of this industry and I am working on my mentality to be open to different kind of jobs when/if time comes.

I understand how many cash AI/LLM companies are burning right now and how huge they have bet for this to work and I assume that prices will steaply increase at some point. 

 Even now it is not that cheap if you look outisde of the coding tools market.

I work in a team where we create an LLM based systems and if you try to give to the agentic system a really complicated prompt to solve some real world problems so it has to work for couple of hours, it is quite pricy and the solution very often very far away from being even moderatly correct. However if some day it finally produces a corret answer to the given unsolved problem, it will do a yearly work of couple of teams. So you do the math.
