You have your own head in the sand about something else : most Europeans you spoke to were probably all too familiar with the kind of North American identity politics you were pushing onto them (what you describe as a "progressive-mind

What ?! I've been seeing so many recently in public transport, worn by the sort of people I wouldn't expect to be Apple customers, that I distinctly remember wondering a couple of days ago whether cheaper knock-offs had been relea

Kapitan ( https://kapitan.dev ) is on my radar as a possible sweet spot between Kustomize and Helm. Until now I've used Jinja2 templates for our Kubernetes definitions with a variables file for each environment, but this is a

Sorry, but this is spoken like a true curmudgeon. Can I ask where it is you live to see hordes of young people finding solace in classic rock (or any sort of purely guitar-based music) ? Except maybe in US rural communities where it's

That's not quite correct. The EU has stated they would consider granting an extension "for the right reasons" (meaning of course, a second referendum). It's definitely possible to stop the clock.

Well, of course. Remain is the current, familiar situation. A Remain victory wouldn't have come with a 25% drop in the pound, rampant inflation, the worst growth rate of G8 countries, stockpiling of food and drugs, and an increasing ri

This is actually a mistranslation. The original French text ( https://clip-os.org/fr/ ) says "système d’exploitation durci" ( hardened operating system) and this has been translated as "secure" in th
