Hmm always thought it’s cause big cities need big fresh water, that’s why there’s a good chance that historically they formed near streams/lakes. Typically near the coast rivers slow down and branch out, giving good access to natural resources and also trade. Trade increases prosperity and exposure to other cultures.
Yeah,
1 + (1*5000%) = 51
Honestly I prefer just writing “51 times more frequent”.
He made a post using command line lingo too, but anyone with even basic knowledge of those commands can tell you that both the syntax and the way he alludes to them are wrong.
It’s the equivalent of slinging a guitar in a picture to look cool but pressing the side with the strings against your belly.
Yeah, what a joke. Especially when Musk is right there in the headline 😞.
Imo they should at the very least standardize some color coding and labeling. All charging-only cables are yellow, data cables are blue. Something like that.
Ah yes, there isn’t even an option to permanently disable this popup, only remind me later. When the operating system is the nag ware.

I recently learned that the Mormons settled and resettled in several states before finally staying in Utah. It’s quite an interesting story, especially given that most religions are so ancient that it’s very hard to track their origins today.
Johnny Harris has great videos about it, this one for instance.
I haven’t seen an app that does it really well like some libraries or ontologies do but I’m certainly not well versed with all of them. Back in the day I used Evernote which was at least a start, as you could create arbitrary hierarchies (nest tags within tags).
So ideally you would want to be able to nest tags like this:
news.politics.europe.denmark
of course another person might prefer the hierarchy
politics.elections.news.denmark
There’s no strict right or wrong here but often over time some consensus forms. Bonus points if there are equivalency classes, ie “recipe”, “recipes”, “cooking recipe”, and even the Spanish versions “receta” and “recetas” all refer to the same thing.
By meta tags I mean the ability to describe and classify certain tag groups. For instance “politics”, “cats” and “Hollywood” are content tags while the tags “English”, “Danish” and “French” are language tags. “PDF”, “MP3” and “HTML” are file format tags but “video”, “music” and “text” are content form tags while “2023”, “2004-04-03” are time-line tags
Meta categories allow you for instance to search for pages that are about the English language, but not necessarily in English and surely not written by people who happen to have the last name ‘English’. Now some systems encode this information inside the string of the tag itself like so: “language = English” or “topic = cats”, but I think the most elegant solution is really to let a tag have categories or tags on its own which describe what it’s used for (thus meta tags).
The current demo is quite limited. I hope they add (nested) tags and meta tags at least.
Please note that in Germany you get 2 votes in the federal election. 1st is for a candidate to directly represent your district, 2nd is for a party nation wide. The map only shows the election result for the 2nd vote.
Here’s another map to show the party affiliation of winners of the 1st vote:
Colors are the same, except blue. Blue represents CSU, essentially the Bavarian version of the CDU (Christian Democratic Union).
