The Australia figure in this map surprises me, given the coffee-drinking Australians I know.

I think the proper opening of the Central Subway should be counted as what's expected to happen in January, not what's happening this weekend.

Trying to assess who got this question right while Twitter is still up. Daxing & Brandenburg airports are clearly operating. Does Crossrail count as open on 6 November 2022? It's not clear to me what isn't operating that is expected to happen next May.
Which one of these rail or airport projects will open *last*?.

It seems unlikely to be an accident that they're measuring the length of Japan using an island (Etorofu/Iturup) that has been controlled by the Soviet Union and Russia since 1945 but is still claimed by Japan.
For those who find it difficult to imagine the entire length of the front line of the rus-Ukraine war, this is:.distance from Barcelona to Warsaw;.almost the entire length of the US border with Mexico;.distance from Etorofu to Nagasaki in Japan;.distance from moscow to The Hague.

There's reading cursive. and then there's doing genealogy research and finding records that are written in Russian cursive on the left page and Hebrew on the right page. (I'd have substantially less trouble with upright Russian than with either.).
In my dotage, I somehow assumed that students who don’t learn cursive would still be able to read it. This, from Drew Gilpin Faust, is mind-blowing.
