Maybe, it's like with programming. You can code a game, a database, an OS, a framework, a LLM etc. with one tool.

Not everyone reads books but watches movies, so there is a market to sell the same story in different media.

However, the cats differ from spiders. They wouldn't exist in such large masses if they weren't bred and fed by humans. So, there is at least the argument to make, that if we didn't hoard so many cats, the naturally occurring

I tried zxing too. Scanning 2D barcodes only works reliable on smartphones with good camera and with good lighting. I needed it for a ticket scanner used on an old phone at night entries for concerts. Went and bought a hardware scanner (for

Trains are pretty awesome, especially in small Europe. Flying always comes with security hassle. A train is just: get in/get out. If Europe would just spent more money on infrastructure. We have trains in Germany that can do 350km&#x2F

This is your reminder that online piracy isn't about "stealing" from small artists, bout about "preventing" big corps to gatekeep human culture.

Yes, every language should have if-expressions. Don't know what they were thinking with the ternary operator.

WhatsApp it is in Germany. Nevertheless, I saw multiple discussions (from non-technical people) about using signal or telegram in the last years.

In Slovakia dementia is on place 2 of the most common death causes. In Slovenia it's on place 19. Crazy. Oh, and here in Germany it's on place 6?! Wouldn't have guessed!

Ah, okay. The article just read like there were some unusual strange things going on around 1900 in Switzerland.

The article made that impression on me.

Can I get some benefits of doubt please? :D I don't question the initiative. The article just read like it was some strange illness that affected Switzers around a certain time.

I once read, that regularly lighting stuff on fire near your home is generally a bad for your health.

One distinction I saw when finally getting into writing: Pieces written in a programming language are full of proper nouns (variables names) and proper verbs (function names). Pieces written in English get pretty far without introducing new
