Russia approves $1.3bn bridge to world’s coldest city

[Deliorman]

It makes more sense when you realize that 70% goes into corrupted pockets.

And makes even more sense when you realize that the cost of the bridge will probably double or triple in the end.

I don't get how this costs 1.3B for a 3km bridge in Russia where labor and materials are significantly cheaper. This looks like some hands are getting greased. ends up being 430 mln per kilometer LOLOLOLOL... SAD

Building on permafrost is more expensive than building on normal ground.

From Wiki:
"Aryan" has its roots as a term used as a self-designation by Indo-Iranian people. The term was used by the Indo-Aryan people of the Vedic period in Ancient India as an ethnic label for themselves and later refer to the noble class as well as the geographic region known as Āryāvarta, where Indo-Aryan culture is based (in this region). The Iranian people used the term as an ethnic label for themselves in the Avesta scriptures, and the word forms the etymological source of the country name Iran. It was believed in the 19th century that Aryan was also a self-designation used by all Proto-Indo-Europeans, a theory that has now been abandoned. Scholars point out that, even in ancient times, the idea of being an "Aryan" was religious, cultural and linguistic, not racial.
