After being demilitarized in 2005, Sweden re-introduced permanent troops to Gotland in 2016, following Russia’s annexation of Ukraine’s Crimean Peninsula in 2014. Sweden also became NATO’s newest member in March — meaning it is covered by the alliance’s Article 5 guarantee that all other members come to each other’s...
Given Putin’s long history of violating Swedish airspace over Gotland, I feel like the statement has at least some amount of credibility.
In fact, I would not be surprised if that is a large part of why public sentiment finally swayed in favour of NATO in Sweden after so many years of public sentiment being against the prospect.
I’ve got 12 km to work, a bit hilly, takes a bit under 30 minutes in favorable conditions. Parts of it have good bicycle infrastructure and parts of it do not. It’s the best alternative for me during spring, summer and autumn, but I’m currently not biking during winter as transit becomes too good of an alternative for biking to make sense.
I’d say that 17 km is doable, but compare it to your alternatives of course. Note that you don’t have to bike every day either, it can be a few days a week for the fun of it/for the exercise.
En lösning som kanske borde setts över för länge sedan - upphandlingar går väldigt ofta väldigt fel. Att odla expertisen själv tror jag helt klart kan vara rätt väg att gå här.
It’s pronounced more like “sloot”. To get the same sounding word as the English “slut” the closest thing would be “slatt” in Swedish, which approximately means the remainder of something - the last drops of a drink can be referred to as a “slatt”
It’s a tool like any other, appropriate under some circumstances and inappropriate in others.
Blindly rejecting it without considering whether it’s appropriate in the context is honestly just as bad as choosing it without considering whether it’s appropriate in the context, fwiw.
It’s still unlikely to pencil out to do this given the opportunity cost of actually going through the effort of building, buying and connecting these things, to be honest.
I’m fascinated by the idea but it’s important to remain realistic.
Personally, I think the best application of this concept is probably direct use of the mechanical energy, without converting the energy to electricity at all. See the bicimaquinas-concept: www.mayapedal.org/index.en
One of the wonderful things about bicycles is how extraordinarily efficient they are - very little energy is required in relation to how much transportation work you get out of it. This works against us in the case of power generation, though - little power going in means little power going out.
Among the ways you can do layoffs, this is one of the better ones for sure. People who are kind of checked out already anyway can get a nice paycheck on their way out and start looking for something new, while people who still have something important to get out of the job get the option to stay.
Single door is nicer bc you only have to open one door, the french doors you often have to open both bc they are too small to get to things unless it’s in the door compartment. Opening or closing both doors with things in your hands gets old, and if you want to get into the meat drawer you have to open both sides fully then...
Hur kommer det sig att du bestämde dig för att posta en studie från 2019 en så vacker kväll som ikväll?
Utöver det finns det en ganska rimlig förklaring i diskussionsdelen av artikeln:
Secondly, granting rates largely reflect patterns of unemployment when considering intersections between gender and country of birth. That is, foreign-born women are most likely to be granted support whereas native-born men embody the opposite position. These patterns are consistent with actual inequalities in access to paid work and social security schemes, and can be read as an expected outcome.
Mer intressant kan man kanske tycka att det är att studien påvisar en relativt konservativ uppfattning bland socialarbetarna:
In line with previous research, the results indicate that social workers have higher expectations on men as breadwinners.
