Thunderbird recently often breaks and stops checking new emails. Is that a Gmail issue or why can't it be reliably tested so it doesn't get broken again?
Only if the Windows Regional Settings List Separators happens to be "comma", which is not the case in most of Europe (even in regions that use the decimal point) so only CSV files with SEP=, as the first line work reliably with Excel.
Does anyone predict economy/population/... by simulating individual people based on real census information? Monte carlo simulation of major events (births, death, ...) based on known statistics based on age, economic background, location, education, profession, etc.? It seems there are not that many people that this would be computationally infeasible, and states and companies have plenty of data to feed into such systems. Is it not needed because other alternatives give better results, or is it already being done?
