Ugh.

  1. You can be a Swede and have a background or name from a different culture.

  2. The gang he was leading was working in Sweden, i.e. a Swedish gang.

I somehow missed one of the middle episodes of the first season of House of Cards, and was very surprised at the boldness of having to piece together what had happened between episodes. Very demanding of the viewer.

I did realise my mistake immediately after though.

I'm also fascinated. I think a big part of it is coming home to tasks that are low stakes, guaranteed solvable and made fun to solve.

Gives some much needed stimulation of your job is to solve complex tasks which are high stakes, not guaranteed solvable and which require lots of effort for little reward.

"But I think we could do more here in Europe to have a focus on developing new capabilities," Poulsen said, adding that military investments would make it "so that we are not that dependent on the US".

Sounds like he's saying that we're so deeply dependent on the US for now that a screeching halt to our purchasing of US military equipment would de facto dismantle our defences. But that we should work to get out of that dependency.

Men er det ikke generelt en betingelse for livet at man ikke kan styre hvad der bliver bygget på jord man ikke ejer?

Hvad hvis jeg købte grunden ved siden af og byggede et hus? Hvad hvis han synes det er grimt? Hvad hvis det er en stor lejlighedsbygning der stiller sig i vejen for hans udsigt?

They do? This Wikipedia page cites feminists for and against.

My understanding is that feminists are against conscription in general, as it is considered a patriarchal and unfree institution. And because there are many pacificists and leftists among feminists.

But I'd be happy to learn more.

Just like the men. No need to distinguish between the genders on this matter.

Crumbly? Flaky? That doesn't sound like a Danish pickled herring... They're smooth and fatty, with a light acid.

Danish pickled herring is amazing though... You really think Dutch salted herring beats it?
