Aus Bremen und Stuttgart kommend liest sich atemberaubend was Kiel für den Radverkehr schafft. So ein Tempo kannte ich bisher nicht vor meiner Tür.
"20 Stellen in der Stadt hat sich das Tiefbauamt vorgenommen, um die Radinfrastruktur 2026 umzubauen." An drei Stellen werden Parkstreifen und Fahrspuren für den Radverkehr aufgewertet. "Gut 50 kleinere und größere Projekte sind laut Stadt seit 2023 insgesamt umgesetzt oder zumindest begonnen worden."

The data on which my ideal compiler would operate (files, macros, tokens), their eventual interpretation (declarations, statements, types), […]

Versuch einer Rezension zu Ian McDonald, Hopeland (2023)

Until `interpolate-size` has more support, you may need script to animate `<details>`.
Until then, making the disclosed content a _peer_ to `<details>` is probably a bad idea.
