Finding out that kids in France are rioting because they don't have A/C in their schools gives me some hope the Euros will be okay after all

I've got an idea that I think would be neat: lights on the outsides of cars that display different patterns that show you what the driver is intending to do. Like flashing lights on the left side of the car would mean the driver intends to turn left.

No one has voted yet. There’s still time for the big parties to get together in a room and kill off the idea of ever governing through an overhang. Column this week:

Remember, only the Nobel prize in economics is actually associated with the Sveriges Riksbank, the others in categories like "medicine" and "peace" have NO affiliation with the Swedish central bank at all.

Plus the constant flip flops and amendments have shown to Councils the value of just ignoring / not implementing the law. They have the comfort of knowing that another election (and inevitable policy reversal) is only 3 years away.

The new planning act is going to be such a mess of constant amendment. The contradictions between the actual legislation and and nat/act party nimby intentions are too much to hold

Ukrainians will really be like "you believe in posting articles on Lesswrong? that pales in effectiveness to my strategy, firebombing data centers" and then firebomb a data center.

Drug tests for beneficiaries and if the test is negative we provide them with some drugs. They deserve a break.

What about the age of a sheep though
Take your age, divide by 14, and add one year. That's the age of the dog you're allowed to date.

This is pretty much my stance. A functional state doesn't need or want the death penalty in normal circumstances but you do gotta hang Vidkun Quisling to draw a solid line under the war years and move on.
Replying to @NotPotBol
my favorite death penalty fact is how norway abolished the death penalty in 1905, re-legalized it just to to kill vidkun quisling and some other nazi collaborators, then banned it again.
