Anyone have a good alternative to Google Translate? I hardly use anything directly from Google anymore, just the Search Console to keep track of what people search for on Goole Search for a handful of websites. But I do use Google Translate

You want to look into the Classic Editor, that was default up to WP 4.9: https://wordpress.org/plugins/classic-editor/ I despise the Gutenberg Editor, if only for reasons that it is not how people write. I don&#x2

I do like the user interface of WooCommerce, it fits quite nice into WordPress. What I don't like about WooCommerce is that they don't care about backwards-compatibility. WordPress Core is very much into backwards-compatibility, a

Full Open Source and Libre software will be a solution, as it has always been. Is there any other real solution, besides emotional rhetoric? I don't believe regulation will really help, they will just skirt the lines and have lots of o

At the higher level you are right. At my level, 1500 FIDE, it is considered an opening where you can develop slowly and quietly and it gives black a lot of options.

That is just Google reinventing a stable kernel API for certain drivers. It will be Android specific and will never be mainlined. Drivers that use this will probably not be part of mainline either. It is just Google splitting of from vanill

"Does this really still happen nowadays?" Not a direct answer to your question, but I live in the Netherlands which is a lot smaller than Germany, about 300x200 km. Every village has their own accent/dialect and every region

I don't think internal hubs are amazing :) Derailer systems only absord energy in the chain and bearings, and a well maintained system can maybe lose 1.5% of energy. Internal hub gearing can lose around 15% energy. The shop keeper won&

I would think the apps will come and get optimised. That is just a matter of chicken and egg, sometimes you just have to release, and go from there. What I am worried about is if the GPU is anything worthwhile. All the focus in the reviews

Some differences that might play a role, but I have no real idea. In the Netherlands cheap supermarket pizzas often have more fake cheese than real cheese. I can imagine that might mean less lactose, but maybe something in the fake cheese i

Headache from milk can come from the Vitamine A. You do need to drink about 2L of milk a day. I know this anecdotally, I head lots of headaches around the age of 21 :)

Hmm, in MySQL land you have utf8, which means utf8mb3, and utf8mb4. Only the latter supports Emoji. It is only in the last releases that utf8mb4 is supported and also the default character set. I work with WordPress a lot, and up to 3 years

Yes, I also think they should have waited indefinitely. I don't trust Google to care about backwards compatibility and keep on supporting Webp v1 forever, I would expect them to drop it before even dropping jpeg or png. Especially in t

This is one of the many problems that come from Google having so much market power. This is really the Google development practices being forced onto everyone; iterate fast, create new stuff and throw old stuff away when you feel like it. I

Chess is mainly about memory and recognizing patterns and implementing those patterns at that exact moment at the chessboard. So I would definitely think there is correlation between chess and memory. There was a really good documentary abo

I would like to recommend Willy Hendriks - Move First, Think Later, if it is okay with you to recommend something. It was my first real chess book and it was a very fun read. I am often intimidated by too many diagrams and endless variation

Two small notes, this seems not to be an official rating. The 1750 is reached at chess.com it seems. I play at lichess, where I am around 1700. My official rating is currently 1437, my highest rating ever was 1583 two years ago. So there is

It is said that if a child (teenager) follows the step course, which is a Dutch youth training method, you should be able to start from then on at a 1600 ELO rating. I would assume following the course is self-selecting, you only make it if

The Roma are well integrated in the US? I saw a TV show where that was clearly not the case, there was a community where everybody was supposed to get married inside their own community. I don't think that is integration. Ofcourse I do

In my experience JavaScript filters work very well against spambots. For example, you could have 2 honeypot fields, 1 with a certain value, 1 empty. In JavaScript you switch their values, and on the server side it should validate this way.
