Is tunneling really the issue? The tunnel for the extension of the line 14 in Paris was completed last week, at a speed of 25 meters by day (twice as fast as expected). Yet the line won't open until at least 2020, many years after the initial deadline. Construction was stopped for more than a year because of groundwater flooding in one of the new stations, which prevented the boring machine from going through. I'm not sure the tunnel boring itself has ever been a technical challenge.

OVH Exchange. Works pretty well, the anti spam could be better though.

As a French person, the American view of "everything else than absolute free speech is not free speech" annoys me. Our view on that subject is different and I don't feel like living in China.

Are you seriously comparing freedom of speech in France and China?

What changes are you referring to?

I'm pretty sure they save money but I've never seen numbers confirming that information either.

I find the first stage recovery very impressive too, but did they manage to reduce the launch cost since they started reusing the rockets?

To this day, the Third Republic is still the longest lasting.

The attacks in Nice and Paris are the French equivalent of 9/11. They’re acts of war and are really outliers in statistics. You can’t really use these attacks as an argument against gun control. In day to day life there are 0.21 homicides by gunfire for 100k inhabitants per year in France and 3.6 in the US (source: wikipedia). I think the real argument is there... But then again, as a Frenchman most of American politics are more and more foreign and impossible to understand to me (gun law, healthcare...)
