I imagine oop refers to the water in the pipes getting cold over night in winter, and they're probably not patient enough for the hot water to start flowing.

Very interesting points, and I see your point between all five, although except maybe praepropere? while in theory i can see this helps syncronizing communities, especially people with different lives (such as families), to sit down for the same dinner ritual. But in practice I have friends and family some of whom 1) have very active lifestyles such as running to/from work, and so requires more snacks to keep stable energy levels and 2) they have different eating habits for other reasons such as avoiding the psychological effects of truly feeling hungry. In either way, we keep having shared dinner rituals, they just eat different amounts.

So i dont really see how the is a bad lifestyle or some ethical shortcoming, but just a rule to adhere to a specific social norm.

Hmm I don't know what to make of this, it seems like mostly a question of semantics of the scientific vs. casual use of the words attention span. The scientific use seem to refer strictly to the biological capacity to pay attention. But the laymen seem to report that they feel and act as if though they have short attention span. The science description of this phenomenon seems to be "short attention habits". So they argue that it is not about biological capacity, but the societal reward structures which enforce short attention behavior.

As a layman it is not particularly obvious to me, why they define attention span to relate to the capacity and not the habit or behavior in the first place?

Not a search engine, but last week I learned of the European Open Websearch project, which builds a new free and open search index. It should already be ready to try out. Hopefully we will see some search engines implementing this soon.

There are a few additional points

• Multiple European countries have gotten similar requests, not just Denmark

• American egg policy requires washing the eggs while European policy prohibits this, making it highly inconvenient.

• They would want assurance that America won't suddenly put tariffs on the eggs.

• If america were to pay upwards of 1€ per egg, maybe they'd have a deal.

Thought I would mention Guix. I don't know about using it as an OS but just the package manager is so nice to build reproducible software environments (although disclaimer I discovered this myself a few weeks ago). At least as close you can get without including proprietary hardware drivers. Building MPI applications on my laptop and moving them to an HPC cluster with full performance feels like magic.

Cool, can I come over and have a look at your ~~super strong monster magnet~~ Neutron star?

I quite like .ion or .iot

What about HPE slingshot? This list is clearly incomplete.

The sun's spectrum at the earth surface peaks in the green color range, which should make green the most efficient choice. Although, I wonder why they have to absorb only a single or a narrow band of color.

Without knowing much about psychology, I would imagine separating the mindset into a set of orthogonal axis is pretty difficult and certainly the normal range would probably not follow a normal distribution in each axis. As a result the N-dimensional volume would not be a N-sphere but some complex topological shape. Possibly even consisting of multiple disjointed sets. If any of these assumptions are true then the global point average over the entire space may lie outside many of the "normal" ranges.

Det er en god pointe. Men jeg tænker også det er muligt at kombinere mit forslag med et typisk grundforløb. F.eks. Kunne man lave en ny merit evaluering på gymnasiet, (en prøve eller karaktergennemsnit etc.) som ville i kombination med folkeskolens data ville give dig adgang til bestemte A-fag eller linjer.

Det er måske ikke en køn løsning, men jeg føler at hvis vi skal lave fast merit baseret frasortering, kan vi lige så godt gøre det ordentligt i stedet for at bruge et halv-arbitrært tal bare fordi det er nemt.

Det er selvfølgelig også et spørgsmål om man vægter 'generalister' højere end 'specialister' når det kommer til det gymnasielle niveau.
