The icons being tiny pictures of the actual trains is cute, but makes the map quite confusing to look at! Edit: I just noticed that the marker style changes if I choose something other than "Equipment" from the map style dropdown,

Another possible factor is specialist availability. As I assume is the case in all public healthcare systems (and in some way or another, e.g. through price differences, in private healthcare), some specialties have a glut of physicians whi

Unlike seemingly everyone else who has commented here so far, I actually took some time to read through the results. There are some interesting findings, like whites being the racial grouping least likely to own a cellphone at 97% ownership

Could you elaborate a bit? My parents live in a not-very-well insulated wooden house from around 1900, and use a heat pump as their primary means of heating the house. This is Scandinavia, so it might be that this house (despite not even co

The difference between the quality of the infrastructure (esp. roads and rail) in the Netherlands and Belgium must surely be the most convincing testament to what a country loses from even relatively mild (from a worldwide point-of-view) le

Eixample is alright, and supposedly a decent place to live, but the main touristy part of Barcelona is the old town, Barri Gòtic, which is a typical chaotic maze of streets. Eixample receives a lot of visitors too, of course, but not so muc

Sounds like a process similar to how you would debug a difficult bug in a big and/or complicated codebase – through trying to isolate the code causing the bug, comparing the buggy code with code that's known to work, replacing oth

I don't think you're right that society doesn't have canned responses for this sort of situation. There's no canned response as brief as "my condolences" or "I'm sorry for your loss", but combine

It's not exactly true that your salary is public -- what's public is your taxable income, taxable wealth, total estimated tax, birth year and postal code. Various deductions apply to the income which makes it non-straightforward
