Here's one thing I don't like about how software people write documentation:
If A is a type of X and B is a type of X, there's a preference to separate X into its own definition elsewhere (like deduplicating code by putting it in a function). But this means the explanation of A or B is incomplete, because you have to click to learn what X is. If X is a type of Y, now you have to click again to figure out Y. You just wanted to learn what B was, but now you have to learn everything.

Where Hoteliers Feel Most Threatened by Climate Change
In the 2024 edition of the European Accommodation Barometer, the study has revealed that 41% of European hoteliers believe that climate change will have a high or very high impact on their business in the next 3 years
@Snoro This is a bit misleading. Impact does not equal threat. For example, the Netherlands has been experiencing unusually hot summers consistently for some time now, which I'm sure has had a positive impact on the hotel business. So it's quite possible that Dutch hoteliers don't consider climate change a threat, but a benefit.
This is of course separate from the question whether climate change is a threat generally (it is) and whether hoteliers see it as such (they probably do).
#DraculaDaily "I saw the whole man slowly emerge from the window and begin to crawl down the castle wall [...] I saw the fingers and toes grasp the corners of the stones, worn clear of the mortar by the stress of years, and by thus using every projection and inequality move downwards with considerable speed, just as a lizard moves along a wall. [...] What manner of man is this, or what manner of creature is it in the semblance of man?"
@alterelefant "Ronald Plasterk is 46 jaar lid van de PvdA. Die partij zal hij moeten verlaten als hij voor het Torentje, gaat namens een andere partij. Dat staat in de statuten van de PvdA. In dit geval zou Plasterk voor de PVV premier worden. Voor zover bekend heeft hij zijn lidmaatschap nog niet opgezegd."
Wat is dit voor bizarre constructie? Plasterk zou dus een partijloze premier worden, en ex-lid van een partij die niet eens in het kabinet zit? Ik wist niet eens dat dat kon.
