Thing is, these are explanations.
It’s just that I don’t think that two maps of train lines can be compared to each other without accounting for different distributions of population, that’s what my comment was about.

I don't know if you looked at rail only or at all methods of public transport, but here's what I found about rail only.
Germany has 461 km of rail per one million inhabitants. Switzerland has 609 km of rail per one million inhabitants.
Germany has 109 meters of rail per square kilometre. Switzerland has 128 meters of rail per square kilometre.
So the Railway network of Switzerland is indeed denser than germanys.

I think this has a lot to do with the Alps that cover more than half of Switzerland. Actually Mountains cover 69% of Switzerland.

This doesn’t really say a lot unless it factors in frequency somehow, maybe the line alpha is number of journeys per day or something. Not of people, I mean if availability. In the U.K. I can see lines in areas that the reality is there’s one a day, which is almost useless, yet this puts the route on a par with others that may have 2 an hour.

You have to love the tenacity by which MS holds on to their standards. They were low in 1850's, and by god, FOR god, they shall low remain!

I created this to get some data for a fun project I'm working on. The reason the left and right sides have a bit more yellow than top and bottom is because of the aspect ratio; the boundary is longer on the X axis than the Y axis.
This was done in Python using Pygame. It wasn't actually a lot of code; only 55 lines total (without empty lines).
I didn't include the numerical data for simplicity and presentation sake.
Edit: You can also just about see a faint outline (like a diagonal chequerboard pattern) of crossing lines... pretty interesting, honestly.

In 80% of cases, developers being very condescending towards our (female) recruiter.

The gold borders are a mistake. It makes it looks like there’s additional information that isn’t there. A light gray or something like that would be better. Or even just nothing at all and letting the networks speak for themselves

Reply to Low-wage workers have seen historically fast real wage growth in the pandemic business cycle: Policy investments translate into better opportunities for the lowest-paid workers by sillychillly
These gains are very significant, and were totally unexpected. The share of people making less than $10 an hour, adjusted for inflation, is far smaller than a few years ago.
The data is real, whatever the hive mind of Reddit in these comments thinks.

I work in tech in The Netherlands. Hiring is usually a first interview with the manager to assess your personality and team fit, and then an interview with some people in the team who have your future role to assess job skills.
Is anyone in your team really better of because you asked the new hire to market a fridge to Inuit or to sort an array of JSON objects without using a parser?
To me it sounds a bit like a ritual hazing dance, sort of a “job hunting performance art”.

I decided I’m not going to look for other jobs because of this kind of bullshit.

Germany has a very dense railway network though still, and the reason for that goes back to the Kaiserreich. Most of the rails do too, probably, haha.

Ofcourse it is just funny, when you look at the Netherlands and Belgium. The while country has a decent network, as it is a small country and also densely populated
