They might not be a native English speaker. In my language (Norwegian), the word for “billion” is “milliard”. I think that’s also the case in German.

Everyone must submit to the CSS box model!
- Comment on I hate how anything without "world" in its name is just about the US 1 month ago:
Ah, yes! The 3 billion Americans on Facebook!
And why would you make that assumption? The internet has no borders, so it doesn’t really matter where or by whom something is made. Especially if the language is English, which has somewhere between 1.5 and 2 billion speakers worldwide.

It’s not a notification, it’s the icon for the “sleep” focus in iOS: You can set different focuses on your phone that are triggered automatically or manually and let you filter notifications, change home screens, and more.
- Comment on Seconds 2 months ago:
If by obvious question you mean “why is it called a minute,” that is because “minute” means “small.” So you have the first minute (small) division and the second minute division of the hour.
- Comment on Anon drives a bus 2 months ago:
Yep, fully battery electric. The silence is glorious!
- Comment on Anon drives a bus 2 months ago:
Yes, they’re modern city buses with heating and air conditioning. Most of the buses are from the Solaris Urbino Electric line, but we also have quite a few from Mercedes, BYD and MAN.
- Comment on Anon drives a bus 2 months ago:
We already have a fully electric bus fleet in my city (Oslo, Norway).
Granted, when we had a period of extreme cold and snow last winter there was a bit of chaos. The electric buses did struggle a bit with range (though we’re talking -20 C), but the main problem was the combination of rear wheel drive and lots of snow.

Yeah, did you not watch the documentary?

Narration by Ringo Starr, no less!
