Sensitivity or specificity? Sensitivity is easy, just say every person is positive and you'll find 100% of true positives. Specificity is the hard problem.

The regular service between Amsterdam and Berlin already has some trains not stopping in Apeldoorn. The European Sleeper between Brussels and Berlin (via Amsterdam) does not stop in Apeldoorn nor Hengelo already.

The Deventer stop is not there primarily for locals in Deventer. It's there to service the entire eastern half of the Netherlands. Scrapping it would mean those in e.g. Groningen would first have to travel for 3h to Amsterdam.

In hindsight, Pao wasn't so bad after all.

Speaking from a European perspective, with an existing rail network that mostly works: above about 300-400km (200-250 mi), the train starts hemorrhaging passengers to flight. Flight is still massively cheaper. Unless that equation changes, trains will always be an also-available regional/long distance travel mode.

No one uses iMessage in Europe anyway. I don't know anyone who uses this in any significant capacity.

A significant fraction of the population can't! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aphantasia

Can some American please explain this European why this is such a big deal?

L4s should be banned. Who controls it? What is their agenda?

To all the naysayers: if the claims hold up this will be super useful for some industries. Example, I worked at a human genomics lab for diagnostics. By law we were supposed to retain raw data for a whopping 120 years. With a couple terabyte per individual for a WGS, the storage and backup costs were very much non-trivial.

Europe is dozens of countries, each with their own laws. So which ones are you referring to?

This is stupid.
