Klikkiotsikko, jutun sisältö: "Jyväskylän Tanssisali Lutakossa keikat alkavat jatkossa viikonloppuisin kello 21 ja arkisin kello 20. Toive aikaistamiseen tuli yleisöltä ja artisteilta."
Business as usual: It was quiet so we couldn't hear it (or protest) when it happened. We can read about it afterwards in the official documents and perhaps even in some investigative journalism.
I suppose these are now works of art rather than just buildings. Hopefully the tourists will come and buy tickets. What UNESCO says: "the works express a human‑centred, site‑specific, and empathetic vision that distinguishes Finland’s contribution to modern architecture."
Tuo laki onkin mielenkiintoinen - sen myötä myös sähköbussien lataaminen vähentää jakeluvelvoitetta.
Muistaakseni HSL oli jo varhaisessa vaiheessa mukana sähköbussien testauksessa ja Helsinki rakensi pikalatureita, mutta suomalaisten valmistajien bussit eivät lähteneet yleistymään.
Yrittivät kyllä saada nimet kasaan mahdollisimman nopeasti mutta valitettavasti kesti näinkin kauan, vaikka medianäkyvyyttä on tullut. Onni onnettomuudessa, että oikeusministeriössä on ruuhkaa eikä aloite senkään vuoksi etene eduskuntaan nyt huonoon aikaan. Aloitteen laatijat ovat ilmoittaneet, että yrittävät seuraavaksi saada kaikki puolueet sen taakse ennen vaaleja ja hallitusneuvotteluita.
Ajattelin vain että voisivat kertoa 30 pv:n alimman hinnan sijaan sen, että hinta on ollut sama yli 30 päivää. "Kesäalennus" kuitenkin kuulostaa ihan asialliselta perusteelta yli kuukauden alennuskampanjalle.
Interesting thoughts! Their plan is to build their own middleware and then on top of that. This way, they should be able to switch the AI provider underneath the middleware and hopefully avoid lock-in.
I also heard an interview of the ministry and they foresee their customer service AI agents talking to the citizens' AI agents. Also, they hadn't considered that citizens should be consulted on this change - "the minister is in charge here". I doubt the minister understands much about IT or AI.
You are very optimistic if you don't think they will let the AI run practically without oversight in the name of streamlining. In theory there will be a few people in control like Majanen himself, but does he have the time, the will or the patience to actually check what the AI agents do? Oh, no-one has.
Hyvä kysymys. SJ:n lippukauppa tarjoaa välillä muidenkin Ruotsin junayhtiöiden lippuja (eli myös VR:n!), mutta en ihan ymmärrä logiikkaa, milloin näin tapahtuu. Esim. näyttäisi että Tukholma-Malmö tai Tukholma-Köbenhavn Syd -lippu voidaan myydä Snälltågetin junaan mutta Tukholma-Hampuri -lippua ei...
EU:ssa valmistellaan lainsäädäntöä, jonka mukaan eri yhtiöiden junaliput pitäisi saada ostettua samasta palvelusta, mutta vielä ei voi tietää milloin toteutuu, kuinka kätevästi, mihin hintaan jne.
No, joka tapauksessa Tampere-Tukholma-Tampere onnistuu ainakin reililipulla.
The full reasoning for their rules isn't there and I don't know whether it's been written down anywhere. I'm interested in the logic and I'm thinking the following could be how it goes:
First of all, I think it's enforced differently in metro vs trams and trunk buses (where you don't show the ticket to the driver, to save time) vs normal buses (where you do show the ticket to the driver, to reduce fare evasion and disorderly conduct). Here, we're talking about a trunk bus, I think.
Why do they employ ticket inspectors? To make random checks of ~1% of tickets to give people a concrete reason to buy a ticket instead of riding for free.
Why is the penalty fare €100? It needs to be large enough to make people think they want to buy a ticket for every trip instead of paying the occasional penalty. (The actual amount is defined in a law.)
Why do you have to buy the ticket early when paying in the app if you are boarding a trunk bus or tram? If you could first board and see whether there are inspectors onboard, you could decide to buy a ticket only in those 1% of cases and at the same time mostly avoid the risk of the penalty, so the penalty wouldn't be useful anymore and people wouldn't have the concrete reason to buy tickets anymore.
Why is it not enough to order the ticket early? The timestamps they have (when you placed the order, when the doors closed, when you received the ticket) are not enough to check whether you bought the ticket before you boarded.
Why do they require you to have received the ticket before the doors closed? They have the two timestamps to check whether this was the case, and the only way you can be sure that you meet this requirement is by not boarding before you have received the ticket.
Why do they check the timestamps to the seconds? It can be a matter of seconds whether you had the time to first see the inspectors and then order the ticket before the doors closed.
Could the system be more convenient and still efficient? Perhaps.
Is there something you can do? If you are not reasonably sure you'll have the mobile ticket before you board or before the doors close, buy a ticket onboard using a travel card or a payment card (which you can have on a phone virtually). (The rules and fares are different there.)
There are ideas to restore bogs/swamps.
I tried and it didn't work.

In Finland, the fear of Russia can override anything.
Nyt kun sponsori lähti, niin ehkä ikkuna on auki muutoksille.

Olikohan biopolttoaineen jakeluvelvoite jo vuonna 2010 - milloin se on alkanut?

Tämä aloite tulee/tuodaan eduskuntaan vasta vaalien jälkeen.

Hyvä pointti - onkohan vuodenaika-alet unohdettu kokonaan kun lakia on kirjoitettu?

Tuon VR:n sivun mukaan näyttäisi, että IC-junilla 37 ja 38 muodostuu myös vaihdoton yhteys Helsingin ja Haaparannan välille!
IC 37: Helsinki 13:20 Haaparanta 20:30 (Ruotsin aikaa)
IC 38: Haaparanta 06:20 Helsinki 15:39
