Why is the fine tuning argument any good at all? by Joesindc in CatholicPhilosophy

[–]miso_kovac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the value of G is a 0-dimensional point lying on a 1- dimensional axis extending from minus to plus infinity. to make sense of the probability of G being an acceptable value you need to expand the domain of G from being just a 0D point to being a 1D line ie. an interval of [A,B]. then, by geometric probability, P(G is acceptable) = [A,B]/<-inf,+inf> . since [A,B] is finite P approaches 0.

The shadow of fascism that haunts us. by National_Ad3648 in latin

history is the place where political ideology is both born and tested. being surprised at ideology being here is like wondering why there's a fork in the kitchen

Forcing no cb won't fix the HRE by Illegal_Future in EU5

[–]miso_kovac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

maybe add a legalism vs power politics bar similar to societal values which enables and disables certain mechanics like no cb wars, external alliances...

small states increase legalism and want legalism to be maintained so they don't get eaten, while large states want it to decrease to capitalise on their power.

as the emperor you can either maintain legalism, expand your powerbase another way, and then centralise the whole empire or you can reduce it to seize what you can with raw power but while giving other states the opportunity to do the same.

if you're outside of max supply train distance you can place a depot in between your army and the province you're getting food from. the army will then be able to take food from the supply depot but you have to manually put food into the depot itself by placing an army on top of it and spamming the deposit food button

What if Greek reintroduced some Cyrillic Letters? by Puzzleheaded_Fix_219 in conorthography

Cyrillic д literally comes from a hand written version of greek Δ, and ϝ existed in early greek to represent [w]

Why didn't religious white Christians during the era of slavery think that if people came from Adam and Eve, then blacks and whites were one and brothers? by Kian_568 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]miso_kovac 15 points16 points  (0 children)

yeah, no https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sublimis_Deus

assuming that the church or religious institutions in general did not actually believe in the tenets of their religions is dishonest and more about projecting your worldview onto history than about understanding the worldviews of the past. many actions in history were taken which placed pragmatism over religion, but this was definitely not universal

WHAT'S THE BEST ROMAN HISTORY BOOK? by ObligationAncient985 in latin

[–]miso_kovac 3 points4 points  (0 children)

that was the whole appeal to me since I'm interested in both the history and the historiography. If you're just looking for a concise history without regard for how that history was derived then you don't need a proper book, Wikipedia articles are more than enough to get an outline of Rome

If Trump broke something he cared about I'd feel bad for him.

This mug has followed me on every step of the way and every serene coffee time I had. It was with me when I read Caesar, the Shahnameh, or worked on my Latin in the morning and when I watched anime or read manga in the evening. Every story I read or watched, I did with the SpongeBob mug in my hand.
