It's not illegal to promote something. What's illegal is overtaking a new market by pushing your stuff via already established monopolies in entirely different markets (at least under EU-law). Which is why Microsoft is taking action (and google stopped pushing their browser via their search engine)

6 years of Latin in school (only two years ago), at least officially a Latinum (German proof of knowing Latin) - and I don't understand a single sentence. Granted, I never had to learn understanding spoken language, but still.. Maybe it's time to reactivate what's left of my knowledge

It's niche. Front end devs want to use JS or equivalents, not back end languages. And back end devs don't want to browser stuff. So only full stack devs left

A "lite" instance of mastodon, which just hosts on profile should be possible though, it's just that noone has created it yet.

Edit: I'm mistaken, because it's all just ActivityPub on the fediverse, of course there are projects making stuff lighter. I haven't found a dedicated single user project that's more than a demo, but stuff like Plemora seems light enough

Sounds interesting, do you have a link or something for me?

The text (don't really know what it's called) when clicking somewhere on the total posts line in the graph also says "Total Users" instead of posts

Apparently you can also get those under 18. It just feels like a band aid fix, but it's probably good enough, so better spend the millions another ID would cost on actual problems

Another reason why a simple ID which only purpose is being an ID might be useful. No more non-driver drivers licenses

28 phone calls in 14 days too. And with everyone seemingly aware, another phone call probably wouldn't have helped

Google still has it's own platforms. If we take a look at last generation consumer AI's, voice assistants, Google definitely beat Microsoft, and not only because Cortana sucked.

Microsoft may dominate the AI market for office stuff soon, but for general purpose language models Google still has a great shot, especially when it comes to mobile platforms

This[0] blog post explains the basics of IPs, ports, etc. using that analogy

I've heard it with a door for every port, but one door where you ask for that specific port works too!

Long time ago, but mathematical functions.

In hindsight stupid, but it took me embarrassingly long to understand that a function just takes a value for x, calculates it with the rest of the numbers in the function and that way basically assigns a y-value to every x-value. No idea why it took me so long, I didn't have any similar problems with high school math

Maybe Zählvariable or something like that?

Only real way is never connecting it to the internet. Otherwise you will always have a vulnerable server with the only hope that it's not a mainstream server and by that not that much threatened by script kiddies and mass scans

The people at Facebook/TikTok/<your favorite social media> responsible for filtering posts against policy that get mental traumata without being payed much are probably also serious contenders

Same with any other company that hosts files for you. Microsoft, GitHub, Dropbox, your email host, your server host, etc.

HP Elitebook x360 1030 G2 (maybe another order of words) i5 7-something 8GB Aluminium case

I needed a laptop, specifically a convertible for note taking by hand too. Went on ebay, could decide between a Thinkpad and the HP. Actually wanted the Thinkpad, but wasn't available on that day, so I went with the HP

I run both Windows for school and Linux for private stuff on it. Aside from some annoying things like freezes when converting, it works. Definitely not the machine of my dreams and HP annoys me a little bit, but overall decent device for what I need. Also cost only like 300€ or something. Can't understand how people carry their 2k MacBooks around in their backpack without worrying constantly

People here are largely anti crypto, not anti Proof of stake

Fairly certain it's just another person wanting to go the extra mile of security. Sure, it may not do anything useful if you're just some guy Pegasus won't ever encounter. But if lockdown mode doesn't restrict OP in any way, what's the drawback of just enabling it to sleep that little bit better at night?

Backing down means handing the victory to Russia, which is politically costly in the short term and probably not financially cheaper in the long term. Whether europe wants it or not, they are involved in a war, and you can't just back down in a war without consequences.

You could also argue that the current prices are just a teaser of what's coming anyway so more incentive to innovate now instead of later. Very harsh and not completely true, but I think there's a little bit of truth to it

The border problem in Ireland was originally settled by a border between Northern Ireland and the rest of the UK (until the UK found it didn't like what it agreed to anymore). I'm really not an expert on anything in that field, but a border between Scotland and the EU similar to the Northern Irish one should resolve that problem, making Scotland able to join the EU with an open border to the UK, no?

People will choose free stuff over cheap stuff all the time. Study below has an experiment (experiment 2). They first offered people either a Hershey's kiss for 1ct or a Lindt truffle for 15ct. The majority took the truffle. Then they decreased the prices to 0ct and 14ct respectively, so the same price difference. The Hershey's kisses suddenly sold better than the truffle

Some parts of it are free, getting general data and statistics for example. But if you want to use a third party front-end, you'll need premium

Article is about the government, consisting of CDU and SPD at the time (2017), removing important parts of their report on poverty. Affected were passages about the growing low-wage sector, wage inequality and inequality of wealth overall, as well as reports on how poverty affects political influence and the growth of the economy. It appears as if the government had a disregard about the social and democratic implecations of poverty. The previous government of CDU and FDP did something similar in 2012 and was criticized for it by the SPD

Maybe that was an error on my end then, early in the morning lying in bed stuff. And iirc the UI library did say it was in an early stage or something like that.

(I think you are the author, or at least involved in the language? I don't want to come off as simply bashing your language. Most people here seem to do enough of that... Definitely didn't try it out enough to have any opinion on the advanced features mentioned. I enjoyed the Go-like syntax with different ideas though. So definitely keep going)

I had the same experience. Tried out V a couple of weeks ago because I needed a really simple GUI application. Compiling example code resulted in errors I couldn't understand nor google. I enjoyed playing around with V until that point, but went back to Go and built my stuff with some giant UI library into a 10mb binary that at least worked how it should. I like V though so I will try it out again sometime

Some of them could be Modpack servers. There are only certain versions with support for most mods (1.12.2, 1.7.10, sometimes 1.10). Many of the more established modpacks still run on 1.7.10 or even older
