In Europe you don’t need countries for this. The smallest federal country will have a clear difference on the road at the border of two federated entities. Worst, it can happen between municipalities in some countries.

There are other countries as stupid as Germany? I thought we were alone!

wowsa,

Belgium checking in

Switzerland, Austria, … It’s more common than we think.

My favorite case is the resurfacing of the road in the first municipal territory and less than a year later, the second municipality does it on its side.

Wait till OP finds out this was not done by a kid but a full grown man.

The tragedy is that studies like this still get funding over actually relevant research.

maeries,

Damn, all those like … 10$ that could have been used somewhere else

Vorticity,

Something tells me that you don’t work in science. The process for getting science funding isn’t simple and weeds out useless studies pretty quickly. On average, calls for proposals have about a 15% success rate. So, 15 in every 100 proposals get funded. They are funded after being vetted for usefulness, feasibility, novelty, cost, and other factors.

Since studies are well-vetted before getting funded, studies that sound like they’re simple or useless based on headlines normally make a lot of sense when you read the research results.

psud,

Some of the odd studies were simply cheap, and are, in fact useless

Glad the kid didn’t p-hack the experiment 👍

Yes, the country where you see on Monday who is going to visit you on Tuesday and where the highest hills are the dikes

I don’t see who any of this is a bad thing.

@Zerush@lemmy.ml avatar

It isn’t, the only bad thing of the Netherland are the drivers with caravans on the motorways and roads in the rest of the EU, ah, well, maybe their beer 🤢

ILikeBasil,

Our pilsners are so so but we have some seriously good craft beer Brewers now!

Zerush,
@Zerush@lemmy.ml avatar

Well, maybe, anyway the French beer is way worse. Best beers you find in Czechoslovakia, Germany and also in Spain

Littleborat,

Kronenbourg is fine don’t know whats your problem.

mutter9355,

This feels like Hertog Jan slander.

ILikeBasil,

Hahaha no not at all, I do love me a HJ’tje when I’m in a beery mood, though usually I just get Klok instead 😂

Mananasi,

Does our beer have a bad reputation?

Veraxus,
@Veraxus@kbin.social avatar

Only insofar as Heineken is associated with Netherlands.

joostjakob,

It’s a laughing stock here in Belgium

Mananasi,

There’s no competing with Belgian beer, but I genuinely enjoy a Grolsch or Hertog Jan. There’s also quite a few great local breweries.

The plant on the right has clearly sneezed

Ground breaking research. Disagree? Show me the study before this where they determined plants don’t sneeze

TankieTanuki,
Donut,

Dutchie here to explain why that’s not ironic:

If its a dotted line cars are allowed to use it, but only if it doesn’t impede on cyclists. So while they didn’t have to be there, it’s not unlawful as there’s no cyclists.

If it was a single line, it’s a different story.

IWantToFuckSpez,

It’s a shared road. Not separated lanes. Hence the dotted lines.

Honytawk,

That isn’t a bike lane, it is a bike suggestion strip (translated literally).

Hawk,

It’s a bike strip, since there is a bike icon.

A bike suggestion strip has no bike icon and has no legal status, it’s merely a suggestion.

They are different things.

Copying from a mediocre children’s book(diary of a wimpy kid)? No, they aren’t going far.

If I read it, will I understand why “feet” is in the sneeze-causing list?

photonic_sorcerer,
@photonic_sorcerer@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

The smell?

nodimetotie,

I also don’t get it. Not everything that smells causes you to sneeze. None of the methods actually make sense. A feather tickles you, not makes you sneeze. And the pepper? The experiment is invalid. Did not disprove the hypothesis, needs more testing.

NounsAndWords,

I read it as a joke of increasing absurdity. Sniffing pepper makes people sneeze so that one works (besides the trying to make a plant sneeze part). He got a bit distracted by experiment 2 and mixed up the involuntary reactions sneezing and tickling and tries to tickle it with a feather. He then gets further distracted between experiment 2 and 3, and tests feet which are commonly ticklish.

When I break it down like this you can see that it is a very funny joke, as one can always tell from a detailed explanation of the joke.
