Russia already occupies the Crimea; will Russia control another 46% (or greater) of the Ukraine by the end of the year?

Apr 2, 10:50am: I believe that if a new Ukrainian government comes to power and is sympathetic to Russia, this will probably resolve NO, but if, for example, the puppet government relies primarily on continued Russian military presence, it could still resolve YES.

Apr 2, 10:58am: If a territory is an active battleground on Ukrainian (or recently Ukrainian) soil, I would say it is not effectively controlled by Russia.

Will resolve when a Starship enters orbit or by the end of the year.

Apr 30, 9:36pm: For clarification a complete orbit is necessary. So the 3/4 orbital Starship orbital test flight as planned would not count.

Resolved to YES if on 2025-01-01:
- 10 cities with more than 300,000 inhabitants
- Have a taxi service of fully self-driving cars (no test, backup or remote human driver - passengers are the only humans in the car and they control where the car is going by specifying a destination).
- The service is generally available (anyone can register for the service and order rides with no restrictions other than the obvious ones that would be placed on similar human-operated services like Uber and Lyft - for example: need a smartphone, credit card), subject to availability (supply constraints are OK).
- It is reasonable to assume that the service is not considered a restricted experiment by the operating company or local authorities (based on publicly available media and reports).

This question resolves to YES if Max, a high school senior, goes to his grad formal with a girl as his date, and NO otherwise. Max recently ended things with his girlfiend, and is not sure whether or not he will take someone to prom as of June 6, 2022. The prom in question will take place on June 17th, 2022.

Jun 7, 12:08am: He says if it comes down to it, then he'll probably go with this mutual friend of ours, bet accordingly

Jun 7, 7:08pm: Deadline for buying prom tickets is tonight, but Max already had two tickets from weeks ago! (awkward). All of his male friends now have dates, its go alone or find a date now!

Jun 9, 5:17pm: Still no confirmed date, 8 days to go.

Jun 14, 5:55pm: 3 days left, max still has 2 tickets, but not sure if things are looking good…

Jun 17, 5:04pm: at the pre party and no date… doesn’t look good

Jun 20, 12:47pm: He met a girl at the after party, but he did not go to prom with a girl, sad
