As they say, there are three things that help - practice, practice and practice. Don't know CS? There is tons of books, courses and tutorials available. OOP in specific? Ditto. Being a better sw architect? Build some non-trivial hobby

That... was not the point GP was making, at least not how I see it. And it is doubtful if dictators use / have used different personas, or they simply behaved differently towards close ones (for some time at least).

> MFs also can be tax-inefficient, but Vanguard has patented a loophole that makes them as efficient as ETFs when held in a taxable account. Incredible... You weren't kidding: https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/

Sorry, confused... What do you mean by actively / passively in this context? Actively "find" (work hard) or find customers that actively want to "pay" (who are really fans of your work)?

Agreed, with a caveat: on non-Google pages. Google is actively slowing down their pages on Firefox (or at least heavily optimizes them, but just on Chrome - which is the same).

You mean like this? > Just because your company is named Microsoft doesn't mean you have a perpetual and exclusive right to use that name wherever you want. Hmmm. :)

Unfortunately (and predictably) it backfired though. If it no longer represents a conscious user choice, DNT can be pretty safely ignored by Google and the likes.

It is more difficult to trace funds through a single node with gazillion transactions. This is part of the laundering scheme. Of course, all such addresses are immediately suspect, but if they pay out to innocent addresses too... It's

Fyi: faq entry "how will I communicate..." is cut off on ff mobile (limited height and overflow hidden?). Nice concept otherwise - charge subscription instead of per-project and allow endless iterations. Brilliant!

Let's comment: awful decision. The "laws" are not equally important and as a user I would expect that their order reflects that. It never even occurred to me it could be done differently. To be honest, this site looks like so

Any FOSS or Commons Clause software fits the bill. Or are you saying you would like to see Right to repair legislation for software? Me too, but it won't happen.

Thank you for a detailed answer! Yes, I'm based in EU, but the customers could be from USA, AUS, India,... I am hoping to address all (well, most) of the markets from the start. Btw, it might make sense to contact Quaderno (/other

I understand the benefits of this feature for audits, but how does one deal with GDPR requirements? Is there some way to alter historic data to remove PII, or should the affected columns be excluded?

Or give day.js a try. It is basically moment.js without its problems, and pretty popular too. I tried date-fns but found it cumbersome to use... Ymmv.
