Looks like it's down again: "Some systems are experiencing issues" [1]

Yes, you could also run your own mail server, but this is not my point.
I am keeping all e-mail tied to custom domain. If a provider goes down, I can just move that domain somewhere else. Yes, history will be lost, but new mails will keep arriving.

Wat?
In this day and age 99% (OK, this number is exaggerated, but you get my point) of software includes some sort of encryption. For one, think about all the libs/apps which communicate over the Internet and use encryption libs to talk via HTTPs. Is mentioning The Wassenaar Arrangement [1] in terms of software even necessary nowadays?
Linux, Windows, MacOS - all have encryption libs built in (at least on the kernel level). They have been made in various countries, yet they are used all over the world. Do they fall under the terms of The Wassenaar Arrangement?

And to be clear, I don’t actually care if the new work is called OAuth 3.0 or TxAuth or some other name, but I do think that it’s a fitting change set for a major revision of a powerful and successful protocol. We need something new, while we patch what we have, and now’s the time to build it. Come join the conversation in TxAuth, play with XYZ, and let’s start building the future.

Furthermore, the bug cannot be used part of automated botnet attacks, requires physical proximity to a victim (WiFi network range), and Kr00k cannot retrieve large and long-winded communications streams without the user noticing problems with their WiFi communications.

RISC-V has some nice work and support but that software/firmware/optimized OS ecosystem does not develop itself overnight. And x86 and ARM are still propitiatory ISAs but also have mature software/firmware/OS(Optimized) ecosystems.
Now just because the Power9/Power ISA is opened up does not mean that IBM’s specific hardware implementation that executes that now Open ISA is open, and ditto for any other MIPS ISA or RISC-V ISA running on others’ custom hardware implementations. Folks it’s the underlying hardware implementation that gets the real work done and an ISA is nothing more than a execution template that can have any specific custom hardware implementation being more efficient or less efficient depending on that in-hardware implementation that’s engineered to execute the ISA.

And the figuring out of encoding is also complex [2].
Once again, this is just to demonstrate that writing your own CSV parser from scratch is a total waste of time. Just use tools provided by your language. Many languages provide native support for CSV parsing. For example see docs for Microsoft C# [3].

When you think of music and the big picture, bands should be giving music away for free (Radiohead!). This is done so as to create new fans and reach more people who might come to concerts in the future. Or (gasp!) actually pay for an album to support their favorite music performer.
Musicians should be thinking about creating a relationship with their intended audience. They should tap into the networked age, and bring music out of the low space it occupied in the past between the producer and consumer. Bring music into the wide multi-national and multi-lingual community.
To understand and to make meaning of it all - is the key of the 21st century. Not to monetize.
Also, this project allows for the slow introduction of the vast C ecosystem (libraries, frameworks) to the Android landscape. Just think of all the possibilities!
The main thing to remember is that you can only show the way - the person in question must actually step forwards and be motivated enough to go through the learning process. Otherwise - you need to think of another career. Programming is not for everyone IMHO.
