Do these other countries described above know whether you had a kid or got divorced?
deanmen · 2 months ago
Yes, in many European countries dependents and marital status changes are registered in a national civil registry, which the tax authority can query directly.

Countries like the U.S., Canada, the U.K. cannot easily do that without huge data-sharing reforms.

> , is this a matter of the health care system

EUs have lower chronic diseases like diabetes and hypertension than USA. Those are not diseases that have any answers in medical system so it wouldn't matter how advanced and available the system is.

For example, 40% of ppl in usa are obese vs 12% Switzerland. 50% of ppl in usa have hypertension vs 20% Swiss.

So what exactly is a medical system supposed to do if half your population is sickly and obese ?

I see this 'medical system' stuff even from very educated ppl but I feel like i am missing something. Do ppl think having access to a doctor is going prevent one from being obese ? whats the logic.

Why remove the Greek queez instead of just adding the ship parts quiz? I guess I understand the obscurity argument (although as a classicist it makes me sad), but there's still a Latin quiz there. Hell there's even an Inca quiz. How does that meet the obscurity bar but not Greek?
deanmen · a year ago
It used ASCII substitutes for the greek letters, Latin only uses Latin letters
