Pobrecito 😂 it was a good intention

The year is 2035. “Canadian nuclear doctrine requires that a launch order is separately confirmed by two senior officers, once in English and once in French.”

There are a few good prep books if you need help

One might consider that Venezuelans inside Venezuela and abroad are cheering though

We used to teach that every Presidential system was fragile except the US, which was a real puzzle

Wenn wir mehr Menschen zur Altenpflege verpflichten wollen, und damit die Geburtenrate automatisch noch weiter senken - denn der Berufseinstieg verzögert sich um ein Jahr - dann können wir das tun. Oder wir mustern alle 18jährigen Männer, die in Deutschland leben, mit oder ohne deutschen Pass.

RCV would work well. I don’t get the fascination with multi member districts. Anyone who has studied Japan knows that they bring out the worst kind of local patronage politics.

Kurioserweise können auch Menschen mit Hyperosmie Bettwanzen riechen, wie ich selbst festgestellt habe, aber natürlich niemals so gut wie ein Spürhund!

Bets on how SCOTUS will rule on Trump’s tariffs?

Somehow the autism question is now about something that women do, when the only known causal association is something that men do - have kids late in life, with women who may or may not be much younger.

Don’t worry, the baggy 1990s suits are back in style now! You can jump from rooftop to rooftop in those.

No. The US did the basic research but preferred that a Dutch company holds the key tech over a Japanese company share.google/gLaZyhnMvdoY...

ASML’s success is based on US patents applied by brilliant Dutch engineers, so not quite what you want to convey here

Punk Rock only became bearable because American kids who had learned how to actually play their instruments in a different genre decided to play Punk for fun.

Germany has 2x the population of California, China has… too hard to calculate in my head right now. Stunning.

Exactly! When you a have a time series and at the end, it drops off like this, it’s good practice to wait and see

If you look at the trend, it doesn’t look like statins were even a major factor. And how would they if they only reduce the absolute risk by a few percent? My money would be on people giving up smoking making the biggest difference

Why the heck do I get so many cat pictures in “Discover.” I’m not a cat person.

Group 1 consists of some who believe that it’s fine if everyone is very progressive because they’re fighting a battle, and others who think that academics are just a bit to the left of most voters and that it isn’t a problem. The latter have no idea what voters really think.

Regressionsschichtbruchansatz

@epsanet.bsky.social Excellent conference at Carlos III, but to whoever decided on the numbering of the rooms: the whole point of integers is that they’re consecutive in an agreed upon order

Military Keynesianism! If only there were enough young Germans to make this work…

Even America can’t do without Microsoft products, and they at least have the software industry to develop alternatives in principle. The uni forces them down our throats almost.

Nothing that a carbon tax can’t solve

“The Coming War with Japan” can now be had used for $1.60 on Amazon… things shall pass

… and that’s before they realize that they’d have to take a 30-40% pay cut

Chance verpasst: „Bundeswehr setzt auf neue Wunderwaffe gegen Putins Super-Rakete“ hätte noch mehr historische Resonanz gehabt 😆

I suspect this is driven by TikTok. I reset my feed twice a while ago and first I got alpaca clips, and then capybaras the second time. Why, I still don’t know…

Ok but why did it take until 2025? Two winters on the tarmac in Toronto aren’t great for a plane

Das ist in den USA und Kanada auch völlig normal. Manchmal aus banalen Gründen wie „die Kommission konnte sich nicht entscheiden.“
