Morocco is quite poor in rural areas. You have to be able to fund a solid building and regulations help little with that. Otherwise you just create lots of corruption.

The difference would be, that one was made artificial in a human machine in a lab - and the other by raw natural forces in the wild. There is no practical value in jewelry anyway, it is a status symbol and the context of coming from the wil

I think it is already illegal to participate in DDOS. Even though enforcement is .. pretty much nonexistent? And how could you enforce it? It would create an outcry if done consequently. (But maybe a neccessary one) But it also will be a co

I think disk space is cheap as well. Radiation hard electronics are not. And you don't have to send everything high quality. But at least some shiny pictures would be nice.

Nope. Unless you mean only the core bicycle parts. Everything electronic is highly incompatible and unstandardized. Some things fit and some standards are emerging, but for others you struggle to find the right parts, or parts at all.

Well, when you have claims involving million, you probably want to spend more then 10 minutes investigating a claim. Insurance fraud is a real thing. Otherwise I agree, there is likely a lot that can be done to make the processes more effic

There is such a thing as developement hell. Meaning lots of effort, but not much progress when certain layers became a mess. The latest Duke Nukem game for example was developed for 10 years (I think) and then abandoned and never released.

Have a look how games work. They are very performance critical - you have to calculate your simulation and draw it 60 times per second. That only works, if you have high performance low level libs. It is very common to mix C++ with lua. So

But it is hard to proof, if someone just wants to make more money (which is legitimate), or if they genuinly want to keep the land. And government Intervention in those cases seem just recipe for corruption.

You have to consider the target audience. People who read the FAZ are fine with lots of text and probably prefer that style over something flashy. (But I also don't think it is a perfect ad)
