And that naïve artist somehow managed to create a work that follows Zipf's law, 4 centuries before it was discovered?

It wasn't the volume, but the azimuth.

Can you recommend any good book/resource to pick up PostgreSQL?

I'm familiar with MySQL/MariaDB, but have no experience with Postgres.

I wholeheartedly agree with you!

Unfortunately, most don't see it that way. All those partisan attitudes make me sad.

So, according to you, the Spanish constitution is nonsense:

Article 3

1. Castilian is the official Spanish language of the State. All Spaniards have the duty to know it and the right to use it.

2. The other Spanish languages shall also be official in the respective Autonomous Communities in accordance with their Statutes.

3. The wealth of the different linguistic modalities of Spain is a cultural heritage that shall be the object of special respect and protection.

Because there are several other languages (Galician, Aragonese, Asturianu, Estremeñu, etc) that are just as Spanish as Castilian is.

Did you notice that English is called English (from England) and not British? Quite logical IMHO, as in the UK several other languages are spoken (Welsh, Irish, Cornish, etc)

That's simply not true: Spanish Constitution do allow autonomous communities to organize referenda.

As a matter of fact, quite a few have been held:

* Basque Country, 1979-10-25: Referéndum sobre el proyecto de Estatuto de Autonomía para el País Vasco * Catalonia, 1979-10-25: Referéndum sobre el Estatuto de Autonomía de Cataluña * Andalusia, 1980-02-28: Referéndum sobre la iniciativa del proceso autonómico de Andalucía * Galicia, 1980-12-21: Referendum sobre el Estatuto de Autonomía de Galicia * Andalusia, 1981-10-20: Referéndum sobre el Estatuto de Autonomía de Andalucía * Catalonia, 2006-06-18: Referéndum sobre la reforma del Estatuto de Autonomía de Cataluña * Andalusia, 2007-02-18: Referéndum sobre la reforma del Estatuto de Autonomía de Andalucía

Different pranayamas have different goals. Check out Bhastrika pranayama for instance.

But that was because of the hard character limit in SMS messages, and that they used to cost money.

Can you provide links to those open source recipe resources?

Aren't there dumps of the bygone ones anywhere?

Scandinavian countries didn't bankrupt. Rather the opposite.
