Or as you did in this comment, just code block it

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Sooo, Orban the puppy dog of Puting being friends with Genocide Bibi is somehow damaging to the west now? That’s your point really?

That’s why they feel that taxes are robbery tbh. It mentally works against them.

Sure, but they don’t know, people lie. If we put in a balance your feeling being hurt vs them being murdered and/or raped, I’d say that unfortunately it’s better for now for you to feel bad.

but noooo gotta feed the poor

HUH?!

poor billionaires

Aaaahhhh.

I would have preferred for the function to be called mod, since it’s the modulo operation, which in math is represented with a percentage or “mod”. Most programming languages use a percentage because of that, so do a lot of calculators.

Why are you selectively choosing to consider only the “new kingdom” part of the whole thing? Overall it’s from 3150 BC – 30 BC

I can also reach to whatever conclusion if I decide to ignore what doesn’t fit and modify what does to make it fit better. That’s wrong…

Not many do. Yours didn’t, for example.

Average out of which number? There has not been enough empires in human history to get any kind of valid statistical conclusion.

Also, the ancient egyptian empire lasted over 3k years, for you to get an average of 250y with such outlier you would need to include what, several 10y “empires”, or divide empires by ruler. Which would then make the conversation moot since each US president would be a new “empire”.

The claim comes from John Glubb, and he used this chart to make the average out of… 11 data points!?! While missing tons of other ancient empires that lasted thousands of years?!

This is the book where he makes such claim

So to answer your comment, yeah math is easy. Impossible to reach such average number with all the data though, given that it was made with a wildly incomplete and incorrect data…
