Both the front door and the window on the second floor are just openings. I'm sure you would prefer to walk out through the former than the later.

Today we have the highest percentage of people with an university degree compared to any other time in the history. Do you think democracy today is healthier than it was 30 years ago?

There is one person/bot here with well over 30 comments in this comment section making all about race and racism even though the topic is migration. Don't you have any guidelines about that?

Usually the elite in communist countries went to capitalist countries for health care. Their kids were sent to capitalist countries for schooling. Everyone else was stuck with plenty of rights on paper but very hard to get needed. And commu

Why would you limit yourself to only those two options? E.g. You could also have a collective system of pension funds where money you pay for your future pension would accumulate (invest) instead of pay as you go system, where the money is

Knowing that a white font is not visible on white background is not really a design job is it? Calling an API on the other hand requires mostly logic and documentation or do you disagree?

I'm not. I really fail to see where do you see frontend development to be easier for AI to pick up compared to backend. As I said frontend is writing code for an user interface and backend for a machine interface.

It's culture and values come from the dominant group. It didn't really mix equally between groups. If the dominant groups will shrink and another arises the values and the culture will change.
