C is neat but something like python may be simpler to work with for most programmers. I wonder if anyone here has experience with Kivy and KivyMD libraries for python. The code is simple and self explanatory. class RectangleFlatButton(Touch

But reveal any "classified" information about the govt and you will end up in jail. The severe asymmetry between what a citizen can do and what the govt gives itself the right to do is crazy.

It is not just convenience. It is also cost. How many customers will be willing to pay a $ or more just for the packaging? Every alternative to plastic is much more expensive. For instance, take glass. Glass bottles break very easily during

Do you really think this supply chain bringing pagers to the Hezbollah actually went through Israel?! Israel has ways of intercepting packages in other ports outside of Israel.

Won't it make more sense to go with the Embarcadero implementation of Object Pascal (Delphi)? That is available free for users as long as you make less than USD 5000/year using that tool

Given that you are not making money on this at all, it would be wise to consider charging a small amount. If the number of users drops because of this, you still won't have lost any money. But those who choose to stay will help make th

Having used both MS and Borland products during the late 90s and early 2000s, Borland tools were definitely far superior from the standpoint of ease of use, time it takes to develop serious applications etc. The primary advantage of the Bor

Instead of making it legal to consume drugs in public spaces, they need only have made it necessary for the law enforcement to prove that a person is a drug dealer rather than a user - example: by the weight of drugs being carried, by showi

This whole subject of blocking Tiktok raises the question as to why companies such as Bytedance aren't punished as malicious actors when the data being captured by them is clearly meant for malicious use. We really should have a way of

Internet has become a crazier place now than it was during the 1990s. Also, the smart phone revolution (with the cameras) has led to a whole bunch of crazies taking over the internet via their mobile devices.
