You just nailed it :) Maybe instead of "Class" and "Object" we should use "Definition" and "Instance".

From the description, I would assume Germany, since that's precisely what happens here. But I can also imagine Germany is not the only state that allows its companies to act like this.

Why not use org-mode format, which is a much saner markup language? Being there, why not just implement full org-mode in browsers natively, and use it instead of html?

In such situation, one should do what is the best for them . Not sticking around or running away may be unnatural and thus also emotionally taxing. Giving advice and trying to help, even if the person just wanted to vent, is not bad. You [

It may be the most helpful thing for them , but listening to someone else's problems could be emotionally taxing to the person listening. Double so, if the listener has a feeling that he's there just to listen, and that the perso

Thanks for the info. I don't follow Brazilian politics, but somehow the picture of a corrupt ex-president going to jail persisted in my head, since that was the news we were getting here back in the time. I couldn't understand why

> iMessage is encrypted, the encryption is end-to-end, there are no backdoors. In Germany, we have a saying: "Wer glaubt wird selig." which could be translated as something like: "Blessed are they who believe."

Unfortunately, it's how humans work. As a species, we did not progress beyond the Middle Ages. Our tech did, but we didn't. Still the same tribalism as before. When we plunder the other village, take their crop and their wives, it

I'm not an Indian, but I can understand why a country that was oppressed by the Great Britain for such a long time, and endured such atrocities, can opt to support the party that stands on the opposite side of Britain. That alone could

I agree with you when it comes to random apps, but messengers are probably the only exception where I accept it. If I gave my phone number to someone, I made an implicit social contract with that person or organization that they may contact

I supposed it's a Matrix client, but couldn't find anything by glancing the home page. Btw, the whole idea of "no phone numbers" makes it really hard to spread. It basically means you can't send a message to anyone

Yes, I remember that, although EU regulation was in effect, I still couldn't keep my number when switching from O2 to Tchibo (O2 reseller) because O2 did not allow that "for technical reasons".

Up to relatively recently (a few years ago) it was not possible to transfer numbers from one provider to another. Even two years ago, I had to actually change a phone number because I couldn't transfer my number from one provider to th

In my experience here in Germany, Signal usage has increased drastically in the last two years. When my daughter started a new school, I got enlisted in the parents group on Signal. Previously, parent groups or anything similar was an exclu

I never understood what's the point of Emacs keys without elisp and Emacs plugins. Emulating only the editor part of Emacs without the rest of what makes Emacs great is not something I would spend time on.

Do you use Debian as a desktop? Would it be possible to switch from Ubuntu to Debian without having to reinstall the whole system? I hope something like updating sources to debian unstable and doing apt-get upgrade should just work, but am
