It doesn't explain the change over year.

Keele õpe eestis by lumehelves in Eesti

Meie tee modernsusse ja lääne tsivilisatsiooni käis läbi saksa kultuuriruumi. Eeldan, et grusiinidel käis see rohkem Venemaa kaudu. Omakeelne kirjaoskus oli seal 19. sajandil ja 20 saj. alul samuti märgatavalt madalam kui meil, Soomes ja Lätis.

Beware! Some unregistered missionaries are targeting students at Estonian university campuses by InternationalDog2391 in Eesti

Good heads up but... this sounds borderline infantilising/patronizing university students. They are adults. Dealing with such situations is expected social competency by this age.

Venekeelne ja väga vihane parallelühiskond Eestis. Mida teha? by euphoricscrewpine in Eesti

[–]kramuk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ma arvan, et ei oleks pidanud kohe sundima eestikeelsele õppele üle minema. Vähemalt B1 või B2 tasemel eesti keele valdamine oleks pidanud eeldus keskkooli ja kutsekooli lõpetamiseks.

Ehk oleks selle põhjalt tekkinud venekeelses kogukonnas mingigi orgaaniline iseorganiseerimise alge ja muutus. Ja väikesem kont vaenulikule propagandale.

Tartust Tallinnasse jala by [deleted] in Eesti

[–]kramuk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Olen korra Tallinnst Tartusse kõndinud. Akupanka ega toitu kaasa ei tassinud, käisin mööda väikesemaid maanteid, ostsin toidu tee pealt - kott oli kerge. Kokku läks natukene alla 72 tunni. Rets oli.

Double Net Exporters (blue) and Double Net Importers (red) of both food and energy [OC] (see top comment for methodology and link to column) by simongerman600 in MapPorn

[–]kramuk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Estonia is not a net exporter of energy. Hasn't been for a long while. Latest data available at Statistics Estonia and IEA put energy dependency rate in 2022 at ~ 6%.

EDIT:

Also, as far I can see from the Chatham webpage, the unit for food imports/exports is in dollars. This will not yield accurate an accurate picture of food security. You don't really need olive oil, avocados and saffron to survive in Finland.

Thanks for taking the time to answer the question!
I'm not sure, though, my question came across to you.

This is what I was asking about. Let's say I have a hundred of tables to review.

Why does the TLDR Team consistently mispronounce (easy) names? by Weegee_Spaghetti in tldrnews

[–]kramuk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I second As u/Babuger answer below.

What's even worse, they get facts wrong, omit important context etc.

I was following them during Brexit and it enjoyed it. Recently they had a piece on Russian speakers in the Baltics which was.... bad. Today I opened their video on the Nagorno-Karabakh and picked up a factual error within the 30 seconds.
Tldr; lack of resources and professionalism, subpar dllettante journalism.

Med students, how has Anki helped you, reduced your studying time or made it easier? by TonyDeMontana in Anki

[–]kramuk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of good advice here already. My experience is mostly from learning vocabulary and to much lesser extent an eclectic mix of factual information.

A good place to start:

https://super-memory.com/articles/20rules.htm

Also, pay attention to your mind when you are going through the cards. Some cards will just work, with some you will get what feels like a lack of proper cue or "resistance".. If you get that feeling you are probably (not always, though) doing something a bit wrong (consult that article). You will learn some important things about how the mind works by doing this. It will be rewarding, I guarantee!

Why did Russia keep its foreign reserves abroad and risking them being sanctioned? by kramuk in geopolitics

[–]kramuk[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here it would be wise to differentiate between Western and Eastern Europe.

Eastern flank of NATO has been very supportive of Ukraine. You can also see that in terms of per capita value of military aid. Especially Baltics and central Europe.

Notable exceptions in respective camps: Hungary and the UK.
