I used to be skeptical about introducing complex expressions to C-syntax languages for a long time until I saw how well Kotlin handled `when`. Now every time I use typescript or go I have trouble trying to express what I want to say because

I fully agree, but with how low the birthrates have been, even if 100% of young people choose an Ausbildung, there's not enough Fachkräfte for every open job. And employers aren't willing to enter the bidding war required to get t

I had assumed as much, but wasn't sure. After all, the US uses not only different units (mi vs km, yards vs meters) but also different symbols for the same units (kph vs km/h, sqm vs m², "klicks" vs km). I've even s

Heatpumps can be powered by natgas as well. Heat pumps are just a compressor and a heating element for a defrost cycle. Gas powered compressors are relatively common, e.g. in camping trailer refrigerators. Also, even with Germany's rel
