On that note, China also recently made headlines with a 'quantum-proof' encryption system: https://hexbear.net/post/5176306

So the claim being made here is accurate, but fair warning: this website is full of anti-vax stuff and various other far-right conspiracy theories. I was suspecting that when I noticed half the article is about parliamentary questions by a politician from 'Forum voor Democratie', a far-right party that fell down a rabbit hole of conspiracy theories and esoteric fascism. Unfortunately, they are also the only party in parliament that is explicitly anti-NATO, but that's because they like Russia for protecting "boreal culture" against le wokisme.

A few years ago, I learned that the official typeface used by the Ukrainian Ministry of Foreign Affairs is called "Bandera".

Haven't haka (is that the plural term?) been performed in parliament before without issue?

Well, it's in Guangxi, which borders Vietnam, so you're not that far off. Guangxi's karst landscapes are wild.

I have two main gripes with the video:

1. Skyscrapers are overkill, just making middle density the norm in our suburbs would go a long way. Spanish cities can be used as inspiration.
2. Supply alone won't fix housing unaffordability, which is also driven by privatisation of the housing market, cash-strapped local governments raising land prices after budget cuts and homeowners not wanting to see their homes lose value.

The channel as a whole gives me a bad vibe as well, it comes across as aka Dutch redditor

From what I remember they help you find a "high-impact career"; they provide a guide, other resources and have videos around that theme presented by prominent people. In a previous NJB video sponsored by them you can see that they had Sam Bankman-Fried on their website.

Admittedly, I have little experience to go off of, so I may be comparing it more to typical commuter rail than I should. My only real experience is travelling from my hometown in the Netherlands to Hamburg for a school field trip. I had the typical Deutsche Bahn experience of train delays (usually less than 30 minutes at least) and on the way there one train just wasn't running, so I had to take a detour and technically board the InterCity Express at the wrong station.

I also almost got stranded in the countryside at night because the last train of the day was bit by bit delayed by over an hour and I was panicking that it would be cancelled.

International rail travel in Europe is a mess because almost every country has different electrification necessitating changing locomotives or intercompatible trains, cross-border services are an afterthought for national railways companies which we are 'fixing' by throwing private rail services on top, creating a mess that makes you dependent on middlemen railway planners.

International rail journeys often require many transfers, often long ones too, which increases the chance of one of the intermediate trains being delayed or cancelled and ruining your schedule.

Sleeper trains like Nightjet exist now, but you have to book weeks or even months in advance to find a seat.

And all of this while often being multiple times more expensive than flying. A summer holiday by train is a splurge.

I see...

The term itself precedes World War 2, Raphael Lemkin coined it in the wake of the Armenian Genocide, I'm pretty sure.
