You're presumably looking at a source that's including water area. When talking about land area, China > USA > Canada. (As opposed to when including water area, Canada > USA > China)
Replaced the original iPhone SE battery recently with a higher capacity one. Works perfectly. Many apps require an update or else they refuse tor run, but outside of that, still doing well.
Very interesting, thanks for sharing. I never knew there were libraries with a subscription model. Hopefully that means the catalogues are really good and well-taken care of.

I can't help but roll my eyes. I understand this is supposed to be figurative and not literally mean there are two countries, but I still roll my eyes because no, it is just one country. It is one country that collectively decides stratification to this extent is fine.
This reminds me of when some people say "America isn't bad, it's the other party that's keeping us hostage." The rest of the world really doesn't care and is waiting for the US to get it together already. Other countries couldn't care less about a completely different country's peculiar internal differences that contribute to its overall terrible behavior. The US is one country and the buck stops there. If you can't get your house in order, then yes, the house is bad and can't take responsibility for domestic affairs.
Is this a strange concept due to you being European or because of your particular European country? I thought public libraries where you can borrow books is a common thing in Europe, but I could be wrong since I just assumed that.
No no no. Sure, there might be a future where solid state batteries become the standard for electric vehicles, but you cannot link to Donut Lab's announcement from this month. There is no credible evidence they've achieved the holy grail of batteries so far until they actually deliver these motorcycles in hand and people independently verify them.
Time will tell on their battery, especially if the bike they're putting it on delivers. I think the overall point could be that there's active R&D in trying to find geopolitically sustainable materials, and lowering the weight of materials used.
Ah yes, the previously-marketed $20,000 Slate which is actually $30,000 now, still comes with nothing, and hasn't hit production yet. If only BYD could come in and destroy the non-smart/budget EV market.
The only reason healthcare professionals in the US can demand salaries this high and even higher is because supply is artificially constrained. There are many qualified prospective students adept, intelligent, studious, and diligent enough that they would join the healthcare field were it not for the financial barriers, hazing-like process, and unnecessary performative work you have to get through to even be admitted to a school. Because of the undergraduate/professional school tiering system, many pre-health students choose majors that don't help them at all in the event that they decide to give up their professional degree midway or change directions, making it particularly ruinous financially and career-wise.

This article is a naked attempt to deflect from the understaffing problem. People don't strike for money--when you go on strike you never get the lost salary back. You almost never get enough of a raise to economically justify going on strike, ever.
Nursing supply is not artificially constrained like doctor supply. Nurses can much more easily move jobs and locations. What is driving up nursing salaries is the fact that the job sucks and drives them out of the field--generally by burning them out.
And, it's generally not caring for people that is the problem. It's almost always the fact that the hospitals are monopolies and understaff their nurses. It doesn't matter how much you are paid, you simply cannot do work that requires two people. And, when things go wrong, the hospital and the doctors will try to throw the nurses under the bus.
If you have grievances with some foreign students having terrible English language skills, regardless of how well it generalizes to the student's country, why would you complain about those students? Wouldn't you rather complain about how badly standardized tests like TOEFL are at evaluating admitted students? Or complain about how universities don't set the standard high enough? Foreign students need a good enough score on a standardized English test to study in US universities. Overall this is a confusing comment.
