Trafikketatene i fylkeskommunene er stort sett en irriterende gjeng som kan trenge en oppstrammer. Men her skal jeg være litt konstruktiv og vise Buskerud hva man kan gjøre uten at det koster stort. www.nrk.no/buskerud/for...

Text fragments - URIs | MDN
Text fragments link directly to specific text in a web page, without requiring the page author to add an ID. They use a special syntax in the URL fragment. This feature lets you create deep links to content that you don't control and may not have IDs associated. It also makes sharing links more useful by directly pointing others to specific words. Browsers may differ in how they draw attention to the linked text—usually, the text is scrolled into view and highlighted with color.

Över 250 000 i skolprotester i Frankrike: ”Som ett nytt 1968”
PARIS. En myllrande folkmassa av gymnasieelever och deras lärare intog Paris gator på tisdagen. Våldsamma sammanstötningar med polis skedde på flera håll. – Jag är här för att stötta mina elever. Frankrike har inte en likvärdig skola, och i utsatta områden ser vi det varje dag, säger Marie, 48, som är lärare i förorten Mantes-la-Jolie.

I don’t think this is uplifting news. This is evidence that Californian municipal services have utterly failed. Many cities, like Oakland in particular, seem incapable of picking up the trash or curbing dumping.
