wheat has higher yields per acre in the northern part of its range (average of 46 bushels/acre in the USA, but 49 in Canada).
Sure, but that's growing on the soil where it is now - soil that's built up over hundreds if not thousands of years. You can't extrapolate that and say that it would produce 60 bushels per acre if you moved even further north.
I haven't personally been and dug it up, but I've heard from several sources that the soil up there is thin and poor quality. Also, the Earth gets smaller as you get towards the poles, so there's less land. It's not rectangular like maps often make it appear.
The original purpose of the Reinheitsgebot was as much to do with reserving wheat to be used for bread (so the peasants didn't starve) as it was about beer quality.
Currently, it serves the function of a pretentious twat detector, which it does rather well.
Ironically, if you follow it to the letter what you're going to get is a blandish lager, much closer to closer to American piss beer than to Paulaner, Guinness, Hoegaarden or Chimay.
Protein content is also a factor. You want it in animal feed, but not for making beer. Proteins break down into nasty tasting stuff plus they make it cloudy.
The first part of the beermaking process is boiling the grain to extract the sugars. As a convenient side-effect it kills most nasty germs.
Skunking is caused by exposure to light altering the alpha-acids, it's nothing to do with whether it's safe or not. If it's really off it will smell of vinegar, cheese and puke in various charming combinations.
Somehow life managed to survive in a time when the amount of carbon must have been much higher
That life wasn't us, it wasn't seven billion of us, it didn't have the same food production systems as us, and it didn't mostly live in cities close to the coast like us.
Perhaps the locations where crops can be grown will change
Maps distort, especially near the poles. Canada isn't as big as it looks. Now look at the Southern Hemisphere. Hardly any land closer to the pole to move to if Argentina and Australia become too hot & dry for agriculture.

You know that word. I know that word - it's the one I would have chosen.
But I'm guessing 90% of people think it means calculus or something like that.
Couldn't possibly happen. Somebody would call them on it.

There's a thing called price elasticity of supply, and it isn't necessarily equal to 1.
Having said that, the barley is a pretty small component of the final price so its overall effect will be diluted accordingly (sorry).
I suppose he could swing it by the straps as a kind of improvised flail.
I thought step 3 was "rant about short sellers".

The things you can be executed for is a good indication of the theocracy part.
The method determines whether it's medieval or not. Modern theocracies use electricity or chemicals to do the job.
If they always return a guilty verdict that would be 100% compatible with not being "sway[sic] by appeals to emotion".
It doesn't exactly sound just and fair, though.
No, to be honest. But then my brother is an actual plumber and I'm a pretty competent amateur. But no way did it take him two years to train.
The call-out charge to get them to even look at something is less than the cost of buying the right tool if I don't have it already.
We tend to call those gas fitters, but that's a fair point - often they're the same person. You can't clean an explosion up with a mop ;-)
Do as they say, but do it badly. If anyone can do that it's Microsoft employees.
Hang on, belay that. If they tried to intentionally produce something shite it'd probably come out beyond perfection.
Teh Jooz did USS Maine!

Useless! I can't see anything except a big black cloud.
Which it does, sometimes. Like the filling of the Mediterranean & Black Seas, or when ice dams in Canada gave way atthe end of the last ice age.
Looks like someone made a bad roll against his "write a coherent fucking article" skill.
That should be whose wizard. Just sayin'.
On the train, Üntermensch!
It's the standard in Germany and presumably Austria. Unless they've been up to their old tricks again.
This is the case even between US English and the proper kind like what The Queen talks.

Bullshit.

The 5-year average of real bank rate rarely goes below zero - previous instances were mainly during the 1970s inflation and around world wars.
