I'm not sure what you mean with serious in this context? Do you mean invested? I'm not really into sharing this info either, but I find it refreshing to see what my friends far away are currently doing and often use it as a possib

For me to understand Instagram stories, it's important to kinda understand the Instagram culture. Normal posts (not stories) are pretty "high-effort" (in terms of shooting and editing) and are posted not so often, maybe every

It's helpful in web development, it allows you to target specific browser versions. For example if I use a new feature on my website which is only supported by recent browser versions, I can inform the user about the incompatibility an

If a single law makes you switch countries you should overthink that decision. It's a bad law for sure, I even joined a demonstration against it, but it's like totally on a different scale than censorship in the Iran. Please infor

There was no such thing as a European Union in WWI and II, which the discussion is about. That's why I don't understand how your comment is relevant here.

Where do you get the information from that it is proprietary? As far as I see it it's licensed under BSD3-Clause [0] which is a OSS license, despite being more permissive. [0]: https://github.com/LLK/scratch-gui

Yeah it seems like this guy doesn't even know how the EU works. If you reduce it to "they regulate cucumbers but don't care about real threats" you probably fell for some cheap propaganda but it doesn't speak for yo

It certainly was be-littling him. You may be right, but especially on such a sensible topic it's all about how you write it.

This is a pretty generic statement and sounds like EU bashing without a good base. There are many things to critize the EU for, but calling them out for not intervening on a (discussable) law, that a single country has just pushed through

Even if one would assume that there's a dollar hyperinflation, Bitcoin as a alternative is certainly the worst alternative as it is much more volatile than any real world currency.

One theory for what happens when the reward drops (i.e. no new bitcoins are rewareded anymore) is that the already high fees will further increase. If that is not the case, the competition will lower and Bitcoin will become unsafer because
