They are conservative and have a few idiots and extremist people in their ranks yes, but that doesn't make the party as a whole extremist. I never heard about their women-workspace-denial. And being against marriage of homosexuals was

> AfD are extreme because of what their positions are Then show us their extreme positions! Their official party program is actually quite tame.

I read all the praise about Claude Code, tried it for a month and was very disappointed. For me it doesn't work any better than Cursor's sidebar and has worse UX on top. I wonder if I am doing something wrong because it just makes

You could say that about any time in history. When the steam engine or mechanical loom were invented there were millions of people like you who predicted that mankind will be out of jobs soon and guess what happened? There's still a lo

Traditional news media and print media are really strong in Germany (and for example Spain). They also made laws happen that limit how Google can link to news sites to prevent Google News from stealing readers. And they tried to make Google

As a counter point, education in Germany and other European countries is completely free and people still get less and less children.

I would love to see a complete cost comparison with solar. 1.5 MW is nothing to scoff at, so if it costs a bit in maintenance that's okay. But overall costs would be great to know.

The BSW is indeed an interesting mix because they are conservative-liberal-left while usually leftist parties are progressive and authoritarian-leaning instead. Examples for the BSW's left politics are * higher taxes for the rich * hig

That's because many European countries now already had 4 months of basically all media reporting daily of how Trump is dismantling the US. Public perception for many people is that the US is on its way to become a failed state.

Yes, true of course. But I meant that if you take an example of tshirt production that gets sold in the US, with fabric that comes from Bangladesh, one producer in Vietnam, one in the US. The final price consists of materials, labor, shippi

Hetzner half-heartetly started to offer database hosting as well but they need a lot more services and present them on eye level with the servers. I a am huge Hetzner fan and waiting for years already for them to expand their offering.
