Rooftop solar is prohibitively expensive in Germany. My installation would only cover its costs if electricity becomes so expensive that it would lead to complete economic collapse.

That's prohibitively expensive. And not possible everywhere. And Germany's grid is not ready for heating with electricity.

I started with FreeCAD a couple of weeks ago. Parametric modeling is pretty hard and a couple of things are pretty hard to understand (no easy reuse of sketches between parts for one, one cannot extrude a binder is another one). However, wi

Isn't that law in the UK as well? China takes the west as role model...

I worked with ORM (EclipseLink) and used SQL just fine. When using JDBC I found myself quickly in implementing a poor mans ORM.

That's strange, I have exactly the same combo and I can see the caller numbers just fine... Doesn't seem a universal bug.

I configured my user to run Cinnamon as desktop which works ok'ish. I am not a great fan of the GNOME desktop, though.

The main problem here is the banks relying on an untrusted device as second factor. Only immutable devices should be allowed as second factor.

Which, of course, isn't true.

You should know the trade-offs of different algorithms, though. Many libraries let you choose the implementation for a spcific problem. For instance tree vs. hash map where you trade memory for speed.

Is there a O(n) shuffling algorithm? In place, I don't think so.

Your first one gets me puzzled. Normally, you take the shorter time to the full hour. Nobody says 'fünfundvierzig vor zwölf', for example. I never said or heard 'fünfunddreißig vor zwölf'. Before half past an hour everyo

Where was that? Berlin by any chance? That's not representative for Germany.

The tips need to stay subsonic. A bigger rotor must turn slower. AFAIK the tips of current wind turbines are already close to this limit.

I am not convinced. There are no two equal things in nature. Numbering things, say apples, is a completely human abstraction over two different things.

I usually need to tare on much heavier weights than what I actually measure, like cooking pots. 5 kg max weight comes in handy for that.

Do you have a source for this?

Germany does in fact prosecute severe crimes done in foreign countries. It will not act if Australia does, but it will act if Australia doesn't.

That would be roughly on par with Germany's deaths related to infections contracted in a hospital. That doesn't make it into headlines.

The 'Wilhelm Gustloff' had at least 4000 casualties in 1945. I believe the memorability of the Titanic is only loosely coupled to the number of casualties .

In my experience this requires overbuilding by a factor of 10. That's not a good allocation of money.
