Bodø har never been boring. It's an extremely metropolitan place. The airport size shows it well: 1.6m passengers in a city with 50k inhabitants.

What they deleted is called a postage stamp user interface. Where you use a small part of the screen to interact with something big. Good riddance of bad rubbish. The usual good replacement is a small touchable area that shows the essential

This is so weird. I'm Norwegian and live in Germany. Both countries allow mail-in votes, Norway also allows voting elsewhere. Both countries avoid fraud reliably and deliver reliable results on the next day. Germany's best, I thin

Oh, there are more. The first dozen A380s built are said to be different than the later ones. That doesn't mean that Boeing now has its QA in order, or that Boeing's current state proves that anyone else is equally bad. It's

Sorry about that, I didn't mean exactly half or anything like that. Still, I don't feel that it's wrong: Even on rereading, my phrasing seems to address GP's misunderstanding in an immediately accessible way. Which is be

The price movement does indeed overwhelm the spread. Half the time it goes up, half the time down.

AIUI the point of HFT isn't to trade frequently, but rather to change offer/bid prices in the smallest possible steps (small along both axes) while waiting for someone to accept the offer/bid.

When you buy stock, you generally by it from a "market maker", which is a middleman. When you sell, you sell to a market maker. Their business is to let you buy and sell when you want instead of waiting for a buyer/seller to

There are tourists there. Waiting some tourists doesn't have to mean wanting any and all. On the island where I was born (not Åland), they recently placed some large boulders to block access to a beach where penny-pinchers liked to par

Right. Basically shooting from within Russian territory. Doesn't that seem like oddly limited use of an air force?

Weasel words. When were Russian aircraft last seen over Kharkiv? Has the Russian navy kept or lost the ability to blockade Ukrainian shipping? You can say it was just a few missile attacks, but did the Russians keep their ability to blockad

Not going to say "lost", myself, but Russia looks oddly weak. It's the country that planned the fight in advance and could stock up, yet is buying from Iran and North Korea and AFAICT its own latest tank model still hasn'

Don't know why China would, but I do like the thought that Russia can't wage war without help. I don't expect this to keep the Russians from messing around with tiny countries, but I like the thought anyway.

What makes you think so? The months of starvation didn't have that effect, for example. More Ukrainians died than before, but if they debated giving up I didn't read about it.

At the same time, I had smaller problems due to late trains than due to flights. (I travel a lot for work.) Those 15-minute delays are annoying, but I agree with the upstream poster: the situation is better than it's said to be. Those

Both of them require high tech to produce, now that you have to consider things like quicksilver emissions limits when setting up a plant. Measuing parts per billion and tuning the process to minimise emissions is high tech. But that's

If you were to poll a thousand Americans a question such as "if you buy a car, do you have a right to use it on public roads?", how many per cent do you think would say yes? I'd guess >50%. While I personally think the cor

Streets need planning, like any network. We had one near me that was congested every day. It was solved by planning: one lane in each direction was turned into a bicycle lane. Lower car capacity, higher bicycle capacity, higher overall and

I think you may be comparing fuel supply for a coal plant with installing a new PV plant.
