At the time the Öresund strait was Danish and not a border between Sweden and Denmark.

What is now the most southern part of Sweden was à resultat of the peace of 1658

My understanding of this from older relatives was that question divided within the parties of the Parlament. This is usually solved in Sweden by postpone until every party sorts out there own standing. However, if that isn’t successful we have a advisory referendum that commits to nothing but will break some party deadlocks.

In uk? If in France, Germany or Scandinavia maybe.

Second that. There was a program on svt play a couple of years ago in the series ”hitlåtens historia” where the band talked a lot about the song.

Everyone involved has to know the objective, which is a lot of more work than most people understand. Besides that I think that the selection and training for the BA0X where uniq for the swedish army who could pick from a large volunteer base.

overall moral: even if your own country don't collected your internet traffic, always assume that another country does.

Fair enough but you could do let f = map reverse in f ["ab", "cd"]

IMHO the tryhaskell expose more or less only simple pure functions and I doubt that anyone with a real interest in haskell will get any substantial out of it. However if one is completely new to programming maybe TryHaskell and these 6 short lessons have a value.

TryHaskell uses http://hackage.haskell.org/package/mueval and not ghci You can eval expression so following works let t ="foo" in t

Swede here, 4 kids, all of them have been sleeping outside down to -15 C (at least).

1) The kids are dressed more like a astronaut, wool clothing, a isolated dungaree, stuffed inside a kind of extra isolated bag. One problem is that the kids turn to overheat if you don't undress them when going indoors.

2) Sweden is very rural, there is probably bad to sleep outside in Stockholm/Gothenburg compared to sleep outside the rest of the country.

3) Sleeping next to a street is probably a bad idea regardless temperature (the picture was taken in Copenhagen which is not in Sweden, and I didn't see any snow in the picture so no winter there)

4) Swedes are obsessed with safty but we tend not to calculate threat from other people as a safty matter. Around every kindergarten there are fencing keeping the kids inside but not to keep bad people out. That some evil person should take a child has the same threat level as if an alien should come by. There have been some cases of mentally-ill patients stabbing kids but that hasn't really changed anything.

5) There was someone in a thread calling out for Vitamin D. That's true enough but every single infant/kid in Sweden gets free Vitamin D anyway.

6) I think its a very cultural thing, my kids have slept longer outside, stuffed in that sleeping bag if its cold, than they ever do when napping inside. Swedes like to think of ourselves as very outdoor, into the wild, sports, activity and health so you as a parent are supposed to be outside a lot, if you have more kids some of them are going to be tired and take that nap, wherever you are.

The thing is that we (as a group in this thread) don't have a shared view what productivity is. That you feel more productive when you are allowed to interact with other fellow programmers maybe true or false. If you should deliver something in a short timespan that will allow your company to taker an order of 15M € and you get distracted by two junior programmers discussion C string concatenation I'm sure your Company owner would feel that you are 'not productive'. Most people outside the programming pack consider turning time at work into money as productive. Programmers usually don't use that definition for productivity.
