A family member is in Germany this summer. He said he took a regional train from Aachen to Dusseldorf to Cologne. He said, at Dusseldorf Hbf, it was wall to wall people jostling each other to get on the train. He said there was a young couple with infant in a pram, who literally had to fight their way on a train because that train was already delayed 1+ hour and who knows when the next one will come.
The last time I took an DB ICE train was 20 years ago. It was a much more relaxed and pleasant experience then.
The ICEs are still generally ok, as long as you're willing to play roulette with big delays and missed connections (last few I got ran perfectly).
Regional trains are part of Germany's new super cheap unlimited travel ticket, which excludes ICE and afaik this is why they are now super crowded but I haven't taken them recently so no first hand experience
Not the OP. I assume the public school teachers don't want to answer when the student says "my Russian math teacher said to do this" instead of the common core math that is being taught.
Am I the only one who is confused by the author’s conclusion? He’s saying it is/is not true?
TLDR
No:
Colorectal cancer is going up in young people.
Yes:
Various kinds of cancer are going up in later generations. (Definitely at younger ages, possibly at all ages.)
Further down, paragraph 5.3.3 says they could detain your phone if they could not bypass the passcode. What are they checking. How many times I read memes making fun of El Leader?
Uhh. I was taught that in university in the late 80s. Some surfaces have a lot of friction and if you add surface imperfections the turbulent airflow actually reduces drag.
You learned something different then because this finding is that some kinds of additional roughness delay the transition to turbulent flow which is pretty clear in the article.
A quick search looks to show the same general topic from more than a decade ago. I too have a recollection of this being discussed in the late 80s or early 90s. Maybe some folk wisdom that's just now getting quantified.
Thank you for the well written and informative article. Attacking the enemy’s rear staging and logistics have been the holy grail of modern warfare. Hopefully these Hornet drones will make it so costly that the war will no longer be an option for would be aggressors.
Agree with everything but the modern part. Without supply lines an army is just a bunch of guys walking around barefoot in the mud.
It’s unclear if Napoleon ever actually said that an army marches on its stomach. But it’s obvious that an army marches on its boots and fights with its bullets. If you can’t get supplies, you can’t fight.
Can Waymo cars even sense or detect flooded roadways? That is when it sees images of water covering the road, is it smart enough to know the car might get pushed into the raging waters?
This is one of the reasons why I switched to Apple Maps years ago. Google Maps kept giving directions to small backroads that I knew were prone to flooding. I noticed it when Google announced they were changing the algorithm to save people gas or something.
"In the current media ecosystem, Republicans own and Democrats rent. Democrats pay for seasonal access to the networks, stations, platforms, and newspapers owned by Republicans or right-wing entities, to advertise and communicate with voters."
"Democrats and partner organizations make massive investments in media towards the end of an election cycle and then go dark – while right-wing organizations have as a more consistent spend."
"In their post-election interviews with the party, Future Forward's principals were refreshingly transparent and forthcoming, and their argument about making the economy case holds salience, as it was a top issue for voters and drove voter choice. The problem is Harris lost the economic argument. The national exit polling indicates Harris lost the 32 percent of voters who identified the economy as their most important issue by 18 to 81, a negative 63 percent margin; and lost voters earning between $30,000 and $100,000 (48
percent of the electorate) 46-52 a negative six-point margin.
