An important clarification. Just in case one of your Northern European followers attempts to replicate this masterpiece using butter.

In any serious discipline the misuse of the term quantum would be denounced as pseudoscience. youtu.be/0qFGs-SIWB4?...

Having a batallion worth of stupidly large land rovers endangering pedestrians and invading pavements is what makes us shop online. Should make parking even more expensive.

This is key, in my view the single most important factor explaining the malfunctioning of the public administration in Spain.

Teaching allocation is done hierarchically. Senior profs choose first, by order of antiquity, and it goes from there. Subject specialism is not taken into account in practice. This is written into university regulations (7/n)

We desperately need judges with a minimal level of numeracy. This is embarrasing.

"3) TfL collision data shows that forcing all resident traffic North will increase their likelihood of being in a collision by over +1000%" I think that is a mistake, TFL collision data actually shows the risk of collision will increase by 1 gazillion percent.

crime harm/seriousness indices should be derived from survey data, not sentencing data, which conflates lots of different things. Plus the whole extrapolation to figure out the seriousness for crimes that do not attract a custodial sentence is horrendous in both the CSS and CHI.

Same here, my kids are demanding to walk to school on their own, but they need to cross 3 roads, 2 of them without pedestrian paths. In 1 of them 2 pedestrians have been run over recently, 1 of them fatal. I am both scared to death and full of hate that we nor.alise this shit.

This graph shows that the average immigrant is a net asset. Based on your reasoning, this suggests we should admit more immigrants.

Migrants also build homes. Probably more so - in relative terms - than British do. What I really want to know is how many more healtworkers will we need to keep up with immigration?

Spain is one of the few western countries that remains mostly welcoming towards immigrants, but the labour market is crap & the academic sector beyond dysfunctional. Eg 23 Nobel prize winners from last decade wouldn't make the cut to be recognised as profs., www.elconfidencial.com/tecnologia/c...
