As is every war.

Most people will think traffic behave like water that you need to send through a network of pipes. It is not, traffic is made of humans and humans reactions will make traffic behave wildly differently than waters in pipes.

  • Some people and businesses will move next to the new highway for its supposed ease of access, creating traffic
  • some people might change their habits and go shopping to this place instead of that place, or getting a job far away from their home (or a home far away from home)

The exact reasons for the increase in traffic is complex and my example could be totally off. But we don't need to know the exact reason for the increase in traffic, we know it happens because it has been observed on every road enlargement projects in the last decades.

Well that's disappointing. I understand why this is not the headline. Not click-baity enough.

Well, she looks like a milk cow, so I have bad news for you.

In French, we have different synonyms for that :

  • "machine à laver", which is female
  • "lave-linge", which is male
  • "laveuse" (Québec only), which is female

Why do they have different gender for the same thing ? Because, insert your favorite expletive word, that's why !

Yeah, but fort that you had to finish the game. That was HARD as hell back in the days. I believe neither I nor anyone in my elementary school knew Samus was a girl because nobody managed to finish the game.

He had a costume that mimicked nudity and was singing a song about being nude (something about, if we were all nudes, there will be no wars). So i guess the description mostly nude applies here.

Your particular commute might not be feasible without a car, but many are. Adding bike infrastructures allows those who can commute by bike to do so, while freeing space on the road for those who can't..

Is it possible that the native card reader is slower than the usb-c one ? Maybe a bus bandwidth issue ?

Basically all i kno about haiti is: only country to successfully throw off colonizers

Not exactly. Other countries have done that (the US for example). What sets Haiti apart is that they are the first and only successful slave revolt. Slaves gained their freedom through revolt, which terrified every nations that used slaves (basically every Western powers and their colonies at the time).

They both have the same goal of reperability and the same shortcoming (being way more pricy than competitors with the same performances). Buy one gets roasted and not the other.
