> Regained control of borders Can you elaborate on how that has changed since Brexit? The UK was never part of Schengen and African migrants are not EU-citizens so would not benefit from freedom of movement laws.

Very novel implementation I would say! Is there any information on how the jxl_dec.js/wasm files are created? Is it an originally C++ decoder that was compiled into wasm with LLVM?

I feel like there are just not many truly game changing use-cases for a voice-activated assistant. They only ever seem to be useful if you do not have free hands (e.g. cooking) which is why they are almost exclusively used as timers (at lea

Have you ever used VS/Resharper/Rider with C#? I don't understand how you can come to the conclusion that type checking is broken and the language is not toolable? Can you give an example of where Kotlin's tooling achiev

None of this is true for somewhere like Tokyo, except for the 'harder or impossible to bring a lot of stuff on'. You could say many of the above for cars depending on the place (try driving through Jakarta for speed and reliabilit

I always thought that this is how it already worked. That being said, the above can also be abused by creating a bunch of high rep accounts or opening up a black market of high rep accounts for sale. It's definitely a higher bar though

I thought that was a very weird comment as well and your comment about it being like choosing between NYC and LA is spot on. I am also surprised there's no mention of train travel. I found this the best way to get to know a country and

That was sort of my point. Microsoft _used_ to throw a lot more stuff at the wall and see what sticks (I am talking about 10-20 years ago). These days it seems like the effort is much more concentrated with buy-in from the whole organisatio

I'm no entrepreneur but wouldn't a good way to solve this be to have two separate brands under the same platform? Patreon and Patreon Red or something, where one is adult content only and the other is not.
