In Vienna, we actually import Australian species because of their strong resistance to heat. The very commonly used native buckeye trees have been eaten away at by pests for decades now, and I'm surprised they do not actually seem to die off, but they just stand there with brown leaves for most of the year.
I guess the "problem" with trees is obvious: it takes decades for them to produce the desired cooling effect in urban areas.
You plant a dozen young trees today, you can begin to reap the cooldown 10 years later at best.
Also, they need a lot if water, and many of them just don't make it - urban surroundings are just much hotter and more stressful (smog, salt...) then standing with other trees in a forest.
I fail to see though how these artificial "trees" provide any kind of benefit at all.
I sort of used to have the same problem. You know, if you're gonna add oat milk to your oatmeal, you might as well just use water. But, whatever the reason, it sites taste better with oat milk.
This is exactly what it is. That reputation has nothing whatsoever to do with the actual sound of German. The stereotype, btw is not about it being screamy, but ugly.
People claim it sounds ugly and aggressive, for no reason other than Nazis. It's a cultural stereotype that was completely projected onto the language, most notably how it sounds.
I asked an AI to draw me a group friends celebrating a birthday. The result was all blond white dudes.
Then I asked it to make a diverse group of friends instead. The result was all black women.
The metaphor, as described in the caption, eludes me completely.
Is it some sort of pun with the "carrying"?
Why is the outlier carrying the control, and who benefits from it, how?
Insider joke with just 1 insider?
At the first three panels I thought this was a conversation with a stochastic parrot
