That’s good for PFAS poisoning though, since bloodletting reduced PFAS levels in your blood. So if you are worried about PFAS poisoning: go to your local bloodbank, and start donating!

It is a unitless measure, since you divide income (euro) by price of goods and services (euro).

Good. If member states would be 100% free to assign citizenship, you can get some terrible ideas. For example: give all unwanted migrants citizenship, under the condition that they do not stay in your country.

A lot of treaties only work under the assumption that the definition of citizenship stays what we know it as right now. Protecting that definition means protecting the EU treaties.

Het gaat hier om een kortgeding, niet een volledige rechtzaak. Het heeft geen spoed om die boete te bepalen, dat kan via een normale rechtzaak geregeld worden. Deze uitspraak voorkomt verdere schade, waarmee de spoed van de zaak af is.

Considering std::cout should only directly be used when you are too lazy to place breakpoints, I totally get the decision to auto-flush.

I remember a javascript library where the was a function that returned, according to the documentation, “a color”. Did it return an object with 3 fields? Were those fields RGB or some other color scheme? Is it a string encoding a color? What format is that string? None of these questions could be answered without just running the code, and analyzing the object you got back.

Reddit was a decent solution, till it enshitified to make money. Before then, it was already flooded by the masses. Clearly their method worked fine. Not perfect, but at least fine. So I don’t see why the masses are the problem. I personaly put all the blame on the need to make money of a vital piece of digital infrastructure.

The tricky part, is that we also cannot put it in the hands of a government, since it can become a tool for propaganda. So the EU hosting something like reddit, would also create a conflict of interrests. I’m curious if we can find a good solution to this problem.

Since he is wearing gloves, that might be reasonable. It’s still just metal, not some oiled up super slippery surface. There are even techniques where people intentionally flip their blade and start hitting with the hilt, since that is a more effective blunt weapon against armoured opponents.

Considering that even a swordfish uses a spear, I do think so, yes.

Looking at Ukraine, I’d say a lot.

Literally the first sentence of the article: “The government wants Signal and Whatsapp to be forced to store messages sent using the apps.”

Reads like the result of an LLM getting terrible input and a low word count to work with.

It’s gonna get scrambled/minified before it is shipped to the user anyway.

Do you mean that programming languages are hard to read/write, or that the languages themselves are poorly designed?

In the former case, I invite you to read machine code. Not assembly, but straight machine code. Just zeros and ones as far as the editor can see. Any popular language is better than that.

In the latter case, I invite you to look at the design of an arbitrary natural language. Weird grammer rules, regional differences, loan words that don’t fit in, etc. No programmming language is worse than that. Although I would argue that Javascript has all of those problems too in some degree.

Simple solution: only allow lower case characters in file names.

No thanks. We don’t want your nukes thrown back at us. You gotta solve this yourselves.

Als je tijdens oud en nieuw plots 5 extra vingers hebt, zou ik toch ff 112 bellen. Misschien niet voor jezelf, maar de vorige eigenaar van die vingers zal het vast op prijs stellen.

According to the article, precise GPS data was stolen. That is much worse than info about when and where you charged your car.

His group is absolutely 1.

Battlebit is great for a couple of rounds of brainless fun every other night. I’m not yet on linux myself, but it seems to work well via proton according to google, and it doesn’t use an external launcher.
