Just looking at the episode titles of the Borgen Unplugged podcast for the last month is pretty fun. Five episodes in a row of things like "Blood in the water! Is this the end of Mette Frederiksen?!?", and then today's episode: "Polls are in - nobody gives a poo poo about Minkgate".

big scary monsters posted:Quarantine in this case means that for instance you have been in contact with someone who has had a positive test, or have recently come to Norway from abroad, but have not yourself tested positive. You can still leave your house and go for walks, go shopping, or to the doctor. People who have tested positive are instead in home isolation, and are not meant to go to the shops or use public transport. I agree that the terms are confusing. I'm all for language changing over time, but a word can't just be redefined suddenly by declaration.

lilljonas posted:I just checked, and yes, the US has 12.4 car deaths per 100 000 people per year, while Sweden has 2.2. Giving out licences in the corn flakes packages has some disadvantages. Norway and Sweden are the safest countries when you discount weird outliers (Hong Kong, Monaco and Micronesia). I can live with that. I would argue that the discrepancy is less to do with driver skill, and more to do with the U.S. having some areas of extremely hazardous driving conditions compared to Denmark (16 lane highways, treachorous mountain passes through the Rockies, etc.), and poo poo tons more drunk driving fatalities, which is a very real problem, but separate from the average driver's skill. My gut feeling is also that the "safety" arms race that pushes Americans to buy huge SUVs and pickups results in more overall fatalities per collision (but the ones dying are the ones in the smaller car, so the unscathed SUV driver doesn't give a gently caress, even though everyone probably would have lived with minor injuries if the same crash happened with two average-sized sedans).

Your graph is showing infection rate, while they were talking about hospitalization rate. I've been keeping an eye on the high 0-2 hospitalizations for the past few weeks, and wondering why nobody seems to be reporting on it when it is right there in the daily numbers screaming to be noticed.

They've been ahead of the slightly older kids for a long while, which I just attributed to doctors being more cautious with newborns when it comes to hospital admissions. But the hospitalization rate for all kids were well below the 80+ cohort until recently, and now the 0-2 range has shot out way ahead of every other group. Something has changed. I didn't have luck finding a good time history of Danish COVID hospital admissions split by age range, so I it is mostly me mentally constructing it from the occasional snapshots I saw in the daily numbers I happened to look at over the past few months/years. I'll admit my brain is not exactly the gold standard of data retention, though.

Danish government is having a press conference announcing an expected 100,000+ refugees from Ukraine. The first press questions are making me think that the recent empathy for Ukrainian refugees is officially over, and we can return to our regularly scheduled anti-immigrant politics.

SplitSoul posted:Enhedslisten have now effectively laid to rest their opposition to both the EU and NATO. They think they can "change the EU from within" and are afraid of being "hunted wildly" if they maintain. It's also their position that they want to leave NATO and create some alternative nordic alliance (which has already gotten a "lol, no" from Sweden and Finland). And they want to do this while disarming, or at least not ratcheting up further military build-up. Just reading about it is as cringey as the British version of The Office. I've considered voting for them in the past, but I am going to be far more hesitant in the future.

Nenonen posted:I propose the formation of a committee to discuss what kind of power structure is desirable, and then another committee to discuss the results of the first one. I'm positive we will get to see recommendations by 2025 and then after a round of hearings a committee can make a draft proposal on how to progress from that. We first need to send out a letter of intent about the possibility of creating a scanditrådsforening, sent with at least two months' advance notice. At the first meeting, a vote will be taken by those present on whether the group should be created at all. If that passes, then a foreman, deputy foreman, treasurer, and deputy treasurer must be appointed and approved by those present. Their first task will be to write the charter and to call the first official meeting (at least two months' notice, naturally), where the charter must be adopted and approved. If the charter is approved, and depending on its exact wording, a vote could be taken regarding whether funding should be allocated for a feasibility assessment of the potential costs and efficacy of a committee for discussing what kind of power structure for the thread is desirable.

So many stories lately in the Danish press about the crisis in the healthcare system due to nurses quitting and no young people being educated for it in the pipeline, and so few of the stories bother mentioning the context that the government stepped in last year and forced a stop to a nursing strike that met none of their demands for higher pay. But all the stories have quotes from candidates of the same parties that shut down the strike about how they will handle the problem, as though it just blossomed into being for no reason at all (certainly not as a direct result of their actions). SD deserves to lose, but the only possible replacement on the table is even worse. And SD knows it - they are cheering on Alternativet getting above the mandate threshold, because they know that they will be obedient lapdogs and vote for Mette and not cause any waves. Where is the communist socialism hellhole I was promised?

With 80% reporting, there aren't really enough outstanding votes now for major shifts. What I'd like to see from here are a few tenths of a percent shifts. Get DF from 2.7% to under the 2.0% spærregrænse. And for Alternativet, currently at 3.2%, to outperform Radikale, currently at 3.7%. Neither is particularly likely, but they could happen.

Everyone just get all-season tires and stop pretending that southern Scandinavia has harsh enough winters and warm enough summers that trying to min/max your tire performance is worth the effort and costs. Stay home or use public transport in the rare event of significant snow (do this even if you have winter tires).

Floating wind turbines are bleeding edge, with only a small smattering of test turbines out there. We'll probably see a lot more of them in the next few years, but basically all current installed offshore turbines are anchored to the seabed using monopiles or jackets.

It really reeks of treating electricity as a market commodity instead of what it is, a strategic resource. And in practice what this policy has lead to is our electricity production being less secure and more vulnerable to foreign intervention. The market thinks shortsightedly and choses the cheapest and easiest, which is gas + renewables. It also allows some nations to basically leech of others (italy for instance).
