    Erm. I read the article and.. still not sure "what happened". Article mentioned that:

    But studies have shown these bans often don’t work as planned. For example, recent research from the UK involving over 1,200 students found no significant difference in academic grades or wellbeing between schools with strict phone bans and those with more relaxed policies.

    but there no mention what are the results of the ban in New Zealand except of frustration of some students?

    Thanks for explanation and link to the paper. Too many AI companies love gaming data and article is not very informative. In this case I'm happy to be wrong.

    • Exemplary

    1)Ukrainians really want the war to end, even if the country loses some land,

    Yes. But it's very vague idea. Loses some land additionally to occupied by russia, or lose some lands that already occupied? End war with security guarantees that war will never happen again, or without any guarantees? I can definitely say that most people want to end war even with lose of some lands but with guarantees that war will never happen again.

    2)There’s tons of corruption in the military, as bad as leaders demanding payment from soldiers to avoid deployment to the front lines.

    Ukrainians are people too. All people do mistakes. I personally think that most people in the army are here in a good faith, but yes, situation with corruption like that definitely happenes and as far as I know currently heavily investigated.

    3)There are fascist units in the military, and they shake down the civilians

    I never heard of it. Currently Ukrainians quite hostile to people in russian army. And russian people in general. Are Ukrainians allowed to be a bit fascist against russian army? Also what is "fascist" in this content? Fascist as opposed to democrat?

    4)Zelensky was of a mind to deal with Russia until Biden asked him not to.

    Never heard of it. Deal in a sense of making agreement? As far as I know Ukraine trying to have agreement with Russia from day one. We all can see results.

    5)Russias economy is very resilient and has adapted to sanctions.

    Yeah. This info definitely comes from russia :) I mean that definitely happens, but to what level? I don't think that Russia economy returned to level before 2022.

    and 6)Russia has been very adept at neutralizing new western military tech

    Sure. And Russia can't win in Ukraine for last 3 years because...?

    7)there is a conspiracy of silence about Ukrainian casualties.

    I can't say "conspiracy". Sometimes relatives have to wait for half a year for results of DNA tests to learn about death of soldier. Sometime people went missing. We will learn about real count of casualties in a dozen of years later as it always happens with absolutely any other war.

    Source: I'm Ukrainian.
    Source is quite biased, so take it with grain of salt.

  11. Comment on Europeans need to reduce their dangerous dependence on an adversarial America in ~society

    Deely
    Link
    Hm. Article is short, and, imho, on point. Please read it.

    When JD Vance took the stage at the Munich Security Conference last week, he issued a stern warning. The US vice-president told the assembled politicians and diplomats that free speech and democracy are under attack from European elites: “The threat I worry the most about vis-à-vis Europe is not Russia, it’s not China, it’s . . . the threat from within.”

    The Trump administration’s ideology means that, in important respects, it now feels more affinity with Putin than Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Putin is seen as a warrior fighting for his country and for conservative values; the Ukrainian is dismissed as a freeloader with all the wrong friends in Europe.

    Before considering the implications for Europe of what Vance said, we should pause to note its deep hypocrisy. Trump attempted to overthrow the 2020 US presidential election. And his vice-president presumes to lecture Europeans about respect for democracy?

    It is clear that the US can no longer be regarded as a reliable ally for the Europeans. But the Trump administration’s political ambitions for Europe mean that, for now, America is also an adversary — threatening democracy in Europe and even European territory, in the case of Greenland.

    Hm. Article is short, and, imho, on point. Please read it.

    +1 for Trackmania 2020. I never play ranked or cup of the day vs other players, but I really-really enjoy slowly going through all cup of the day tracks for silver medals on each. I had gold and even author medals on some tracks but hehe never intentionally. Tracks is super different, mechanics (if you wish to learn) is complex and interesting, so, can recommend.

  14. Comment on Inside the new plan to seize Russia’s shadow fleet in ~transport

    Finnish authorities seized the Eagle S ship in December in an all-guns-blazing operation, suspecting it had sabotaged a subsea power link connecting Estonia to Finland. The detention of the ship — which was carrying 100,000 barrels of oil from St. Petersburg — was a galvanizing moment, and appeared to be a new front in a clandestine war between Russia and the West.

    “Close to 50 percent of sanctioned trade [in Russian seaborne oil] is going through the Gulf of Finland,” said Estonia’s Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna. “There are the environmental threats, there are the attacks we’ve had against our undersea infrastructure.”
