I guess you were lucky or in a very specific area. Most of the "shared" electric scooters in Paris are used on the sidewalk, sometimes going very fast. I'm kinda split on the issue, on one hand they're a danger to pedestrian and there's a non negligerable amount of accident involving scooters on the sidewalk. On the other hand, it's hard to blame them from not using the cycle pathes because motorcycles will happily use them to avoid traffic. Still, bikes manage to use the streets just fine, so there's no reason electric scooters can't.
Overall there's a huge need for traffic rules enforcement in Paris, for everyone. Pedestrians complain about cyclists/scooters, cyclists complain about motorcycles, motorcycles complain about cars, cars complain about pedestrian and bikes, all in good reason.
But they're not safe. Like any kind of medication, there's a risk of hidden effects or bad reaction that could and do happen. Rather than trying to lie, I think it's better to be honest about the possible side effects, and communicate about the nasty diseases we don't have to deal with thanks to those vaccines. Most anti-vaccines are stuck on the possible danger of vaccine, and aren't balancing it with all the benefits that come because we forgot how bad those diseases were.
It's a bit trickier than that. "J'aime X" is translated to "I love X" if X is a person, but if X is something else, it becomes "I like X". If you really love chocolate, you have to use "J'adore le chocolat" or add some positive adverb to aimer, like "J'aime vraiment/énormément le chocolat".
Funnily enough, while "bien" is also positive word, it's indeed used to lessen the power of "aimer". That's the kind of stuff native speakers don't even notice but can confuse everyone else.
The problem here isn't Ireland being a tax haven, it's Ireland giving a preferential treatment to Apple, allowing them to pay less taxes than other companies in Ireland would pay in the same situation.
That's right, people often talk about motivation, but motivation is overrated. It's a fleeting and elusive feeling, and if you rely on it to get things done, you'll most likely get burnt sooner or later. Having the discipline to do things no matter what is the right approach, not only when coding but for other areas of life (like sports, dieting, or anything that doesn't give an instant reward and prone to be procrastinated).
Because it would be much easier to ignore the pressure put by random and secret food inspections if those inspections don't even exist at all. To get and keep 3 stars over more than 10 years require to be overconscious, so even if he wants to ignore the ranking he might not be able to.
The problem with entertainement isn't that it's too profitable, it's that the top earner are taking a huge part of the pie while the majority is fighting for crumbs. It's easy to see the few soccer stars making millions by the dozen, but there are way more people playing soccer professionally that are barely getting by.
Reminds me of Dungeon Keeper, a old PC game where you have to build your own dungeon, with rooms for your monsters, treasure room, magic room to research spells, etc. Heroes try to invade your dungeon, and you also have to fight neighbouring dungeons. One of the cool feature was that while monsters were controlled by an AI, you could take manual control of one, going to a first person view and playing like a FPS game.
So yeah, seeing this feels like Dungeon Keeper meets Minecraft. Which could be very interesting if executed properly, but it's not going to be easy.
Overall there's a huge need for traffic rules enforcement in Paris, for everyone. Pedestrians complain about cyclists/scooters, cyclists complain about motorcycles, motorcycles complain about cars, cars complain about pedestrian and bikes, all in good reason.
