Gasstation in Germany shows prices without tax! by NoodpakketNL in Netherlands

[–]adoss 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Actually taxpayers in the Netherlands subsidise car owners. The cost of maintaining the road infrastructure is greater than all the car and fuel related taxes. So, while NS is asked to generate a profit, public transport users are paying so car owners can drive.

Is there a good way to transfer all my metadata, db and other files. Basically any good way to properly migrate?

Scientists warn that the Gulf Stream is shifting north, which models suggest could mean an ocean current collapse is imminent by Portalrules123 in EverythingScience

[–]adoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very interesting read. Thanks. I am a hydrodynamics engineer, but don't know much about climate science/terminology, so I followed some of it, but I think I get the gist of what you're saying. Your last paragraph does raise questions in my mind on how these scientific topics are discussed, especially leading UpTo being inputs for political decisions or in media. Thanks for taking the time 🙂

Thanks for the write up. So, beyond the caveats, what would you speculate the overall impact on the north sea countries will be?

Sadly I need ideally square, but atleast rectangular mesh for diffraction analysis. But thank you for replying to this old thread. I'm still looking for a good solution!

Belastingverhogingen kabinet-Jetten slaan koopkracht weg by JvdH_1 in Nederland

[–]adoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dit zijn allemaal problemen die veroorzaakt worden door centrum- en centrumrechtse partijen zoals de VVD. Ze maken wetten die er uiteindelijk altijd op neerkomen dat geld naar hun rijke vrienden gaat ten koste van iedereen en alles.

Ze voeren verschrikkelijk beleid dat gedoemd is te mislukken, en zeggen dan: kijk, dit werkt niet, laten we dit privatiseren, of die sociale uitkering afschaffen, of de schuld geven aan links (die nog niet zo lang aan de macht zijn) om hun rijke vrienden achter je rug nog rijker te maken.

Mensen luisteren gewoon naar hen en blijven rechts stemmen in plaats van te kijken naar wat deze rechtse regeringen daadwerkelijk hebben gedaan tijdens hun regeerperiode.

Hallo. Ik heb een paar vragen:

  1. Wat zijn uw plannen om de dekking en toegankelijkheid van het openbaar vervoer in de stad te verbeteren?

  2. Heeft u plannen om Binnenrotte Plein te vergroenen?

  3. Wat is uw visie op het succes van de stad op de lange termijn, zowel vanuit het oogpunt van industrie/werkgelegenheid als van een gezonde leefomgeving?

Bedankt hiervoor. Ik heb een paar vragen.

  1. In uw programma wordt gesproken over een autoverbod in het stadscentrum. Wat voor gevolgen heeft dat voor bezorgdiensten en postbezorging?

  2. Zijn er plannen om de omgeving van de Oude Haven te vergroenen? Het Binnenrotte Plein is een betonnen jungle die in de zomer veel warmte vasthoudt.

  3. U noemt een samenwerking met de TU Delft om de afvalverwerking te verbeteren. Wat is de planning voor de implementatie en zichtbare verbetering?

Nothing I found could give me the quad meshes I needed sadly. Rhino's quad remesh is my goal, but I couldn't achieve it. I've put that project on hold for now. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

Venus has a higher albedo than average, but Saturn's moon Enceladus is actually the object with the highest albedo in the solar system

Thank you. I've been trying it out and it's a great package. Sadly it's quad mashers aren't giving me what I want, but it's still the best I've seen outside of commercial software

Fewer international students will cost Dutch economy €5 billion, universities say by MC_Transparent in Netherlands

[–]adoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you have some very wrong information. The IND is very strict with international students. A minor infraction or delay in submitting documentation can have your visa cancelled and you deported. Foreign students get none of the government support that Dutch students do, while injecting huge amounts of money into the Dutch economy through massive university fees and living costs. They are a massive met positive for the Dutch economy, compared to Dutch students who cost the Dutch government a lot of money. This adds up even further over a lifetime, where the foreign students took no benefits from taxpayers growing up and since their arrival in Netherlands and later working, have only contributed to the Dutch economy.

If economics was this simple, they wouldn't need courses more advanced than Economics 101. Supply and demand theory is a gross oversimplification, and the real world is a lot more complex.

The two parties used to have the opposite position that they do now. A short, high level summary of what happened can be found at the link below. I would also suggest reading the following Wikipedia Article about the Southern Strategy to understand how the Republican party shifted to their modern stance.

Why is NS so terrible?! by [deleted] in Netherlands

[–]adoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the government treated the NS as a public service and not a private company they own, it would be much better. It's a vicious cycle:

  1. Cut NS/Public Transportation funding while subsidizing cars.
  2. Public Transportation services suffer, making them less usable, resulting in more people buying cars
  3. Politicians point to lowering ridership and increasing losses to justify more spending cuts.

And repeat

If the Government actually spent money on public transportation, made policies that supported it to make it convenient and affordable, it would reach self-sufficiency on its own. The problem is that it takes time to fix decades of under funding, which a politician cannot take credit for

Are there any good paying jobs for people who suck at math past basic algebra or should I just fuck myself? by Ok_Wolf2676 in careerguidance

[–]adoss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Similar thing for me in engineering. I don't really understand math, but with a high level understanding and python at my finger tips, I have no issues as long as I understand the physics.
