    Protest action by account from the Netherlands: daily corona map goes dark because "it's useless: politicians are not willing or are not able, citizens just want maximum freedom. Apparently, we're going to just let this rage"

    That's how I read all publications with charts in them :) This chart is one of the clearest proofs that science is awesome

    I always read medical papers by skipping to the charts first and the Pfizer FDA submission does not disappoint. Good graph.

    Data traffic at Dutch internet provider KPN on a week day. Every whole and half hour people start a video call. Slight dip around noon for lunch. Most popular time slot for a video call is at 11:00.
