Idea for 2-in-1 chart:

black part = full chart with non-truncated y-axis; useful for observing the real yearly change

red part = zoom in on the same data; effectively the same as if the y-axis were truncated; useful for observing the trend

I just realized that the Croatian language does not have a separate word for “weather”. We just reuse the word “time”.

So a weather forecast is called a time forecast. Instead of severe weather, we say severe time. When we talk about weather conditions, we say time conditions.

Crazy, huh? I was thinking about weather, and I couldn’t think of a Croatian word for it. But I thought, there must be something because it’s such an important concept that needs its own word. Turns out, no, it doesn’t.

The grays and blacks

gray economy = informal economy/sector, shadow economy, undeclared/unregulated economic activity

“black work“ (Schwarzarbeit in German) = undeclared work activity

gray market = e.g. unlicensed reselling of legal goods
black market = e.g. selling of illegal goods

I’m trying out a new approach to reading the news where I first read the AI-generated summary of a news article and only then the news article itself.

Some problems of news articles:

* too much text, very verbose, critical information is intertwined with relatively unimportant information
* generally confusing to read, obscure words
* sensationalist and manipulative writing, especially in the title and first few paragraphs

The AI summary gives me a good introductory overview. It’s helpful.
