This is not an innocent question, this user is a Kremlin tool, reading his comments on reddit is pretty disgusting, here's for example blaming Ukraine for the fact Russia is bombing hospitals: https://old.reddit.com/r/europe/comments/vp08m0/the_health_c...
Earlier quoted context omitted.
The commenter stated that the Ukrainian Army often puts troops and military hardware near civilian infrastructure (true). They did not assert that this was the case for the specific Odessa hospital in question (merely that it was a possibility), or that this justifies Russian bombings.
The justification is implicit from the context.

I can tell you why. In German 25 is five and twenty. 67 is seven and sixty. Annoying but bearable. However, in French, 60 is sixty. 70 is sixty ten. 80 is four twenty. 90 is four twenty ten. 99 is four twenty nineteen. Any French person is steeled by their crazy numbering system, from an early age, allowing them to reach the highest mathematical heights as they grow.
Danish is worse, or at least as bad. Sixty is three twenties, so fifty is half three twenties. Eighty is four twenties, so seventy is half four twenties. Ninety is half five twenties, but a hundred is just a hundred. Sanity, at last! (The twenties have been abbreviated over the years to just an -s ending, so sixty is “tres” and so on. But still …)
I'm confused. Wouldn't that be... thirty? :-)

Read the names of the numbers in French
I speak French... I know what they mean. I still don't get your joke or reference. Or I don't find it funny? Unsure. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

What else do you find "implicit"? Does this Ukrainian Military set-up [1] in yet another school is implicit or explicit? Or using school buses [2] for military evacuation? And I wish those had been the only examples, they're not. And last but not least, do you find the salute accompanying these "Slava Ukraini" chants [3] explicit or implicit? They look pretty explicit to me. [1] https://twitter.com/mdfzeh/status/1543…

Thank you, I've been an undercover agent on both reddit and HN for 15 (close to 16 years) now.

I always found it weird how it was dominated by the french, with very few germans in between (only 2!). What are they doing differently? It's not that math is unpopular here, a lot of students are studying mathematics and every university has a math department. But they are absolutely dominating and I can't really explain it.
France has an insane system of hyper-elite universities, the Grandes écoles ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grande_%C3%A9cole ). I have a friend who was in one, it's even crazier than it looks from the outside. We have nothing comparable in Germany. If that's good or bad I don't know, but regarding super-elite competitions like the Fields-Medal I don't think there is another way.
