Fine, let's take another dataset. There's also https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/political-corruption-inde...
Germany is 8th best there, not the worst.
I'm not arguing that there's no corruption, the country was a role model, or anything like that. That kind of post-fact accusation is not helpful, it's leading society in a dangerously wrong direction.

Who are "they", you mean one commenter you assume is European?
You are right that at the beginning of the 20th century, there was still a lack of democratic structures, in Europe, as well as in the United States of America, where the 19th amendment was introduced in 1920 and the Voting Right Act in 1965.

Yes, you are right. There's a comment further above to cover the canal but not with solar panels and have the panels in a solar park. The covered area in that solar park could then be used for agriculture - and maybe irrigated with the water from the covered canal.

Storypoints do not mean "time". Time would be too concrete and measurable and would be bad for selling more agile coachings.
Instead storypoints represent "effort". What does it mean and how can it be used to estimate a shipping date? I was told that I just don't understand.

Lots of common main ingredients like potatoes, beets, cabbage, and sausages.
It could also have a different reason, like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Former_eastern_territories_of_...

ed2k, nice! That reminds me of this superb piece of software: MLDonkey (https://github.com/ygrek/mldonkey), written in OCaml.

For me the most clear example (in English and other languages that borrowed from Latin) is "to move" and "mobile".

You seem to be confusing the words "Schmerzmittel" (analgesic, pain killer) and "Betäubungsmittel" (narcotic). Those two classes of substances are not the same.
