Small thing, but I like that European electrical codes aren’t so prescriptive about where outlets are placed. In this bedroom in the US, you’d need one duplex outlet per wall, inevitably placing one (and only one) on the wall of the bed, but behind the bed frame rather than next to it

It's too easy to be distracted by the economic story of the day. The more important story is of our system fraying: The rule of law is decaying, Bribery spreading, crony capitalism normalized. It won’t show up in next quarter’s data, but when our kids try to build their lives.
