   Coming from a country with a huge alcoholism problem, I welcome any trend that shows decrease in alcohol consumption. Now living in England, I'm amazed how people just take their cars to a pub and drive back home like it's nothing

   And yet the people from Reinickendorf and Spandau, who were more affected, voted for it to stay. Go figure.

   Well, Tempelhof closed ages ago so there was only one city airport. Schönefeld is not in Berlin.

   You have a very weird circle of associates. Schönefeld was always the bad airport and now the Brandenburg airport took over that title. Tegel was always the quick and convenient one.

   I flew a lot from there, because I lived 10 minutes away from the airport (by bus). I mostly flew from C (cheap EU flights), sometimes from A and D (Asia, UK). I don't recall ever flying from B. I agree that A gates was a sweet spot bu

   Best way: close the actual city airport that was functioning like a well-oiled machine and was loved by the city population. Even better, do it against their explicit wishes with a shady decision that reeks of corruption. Any follow-up to t

   We can totally expect another 40-50% raise in October.

   The difference between UK and some of the Western-EU countries is already significant enough. No need to go straight to USA.

    They would be banning sugary drinks altogether, if they actually cared.

    Same here. This baffles me. Especially considered the obligatory compilation step and lack of IPython.

    And yet there's huge amount of smokers. Not sure banning the ads helped that much.

    The man is such a treasure. Very entertaining and with a great sense of humour. I've learned so much about different countries from him.

    When I lived in Germany, I used a local (private) practice for my immediate needs. This was covered by my statutory (yet still private) insurance from a Krankenkasse. I usually could get a next week appointment or wait in the queue 2-3h and

    I have never worked outside of Europe and I have seen it happen multiple times. More often than not. The fired person is just sent on paid time off.

    Every time this comes up, I wish we talked more about shortening the work days as opposed to having fewer of them. I don't mind working 5/7 days. I do mind long days and overtime.

    Ironically, the first map with Poland although very popular (it comes up on Reddit on a weekly basis) doesn't explain much. It's the part not shown there that matters. The Russian partition (and to a lesser extent Austrian one) wa

    I just ate a plate with mash (very generous portion) last weekend, here in south England. The other choice was chips.
