Russia and Germany have been at war for centuries. The last few decades when their economies became co-dependent was a blissful peace. Beware the long term consequences of buiding a new wall between them.

This is a American culture thing as well. It regularly surprises me how people that sounded like experts actually turned out to know less than me. I've come to learn to discount anything American-raised people say and double the assume

Read "how to win friends and influence people". You can be strongly opinionated but avoid the "expressing" part. If someone you're talking to is wrong it isn't your job to change their mind.

Get unexpectedly laid off into a bad job market. Seriously makes you a better employee that really values a good job. Its been 8 years already and I still try much harder to delivery good work and please the boss.

We really need a way for power hungry smart devices to charge by spot pricing. By default your car charges when rate is low eg windy nights and sunny lunch times and not a heatwave. Having Night and Day rates is too simplistic.

My guess it figures out who actually wants to read the article, as opposed to accidental clicks, scrapers etc.

They continuously fined the banks until they're all nearly bankrupt. I guess tech is next now.

Is there a path to upgrading Java on Android? Surely new Android releases could do easily?

That is why I asked, the points made were different from anything out of even the fringe. > Comical "anything I don't like is Russian" response. I agree calling people a bot is too common, but in this case Russians are the

Thanks for replying, some of the assertions didn't seem right now I see where you come from. I didn't classify ADL as neo-con. The Wapo article does say there are a few thousand far right soldiers, which I think is well known, it

This is one of the worst results. No one is sure what will happen in 10 years time. Take out debt and hope for another writeoff? Its like Reagan's immigration amnesty.

Possibly but customers quickly learn that these Adobe alternatives quickly disappear, so avoid. I know because I bought a bunch of Lightroom-like applications that are no longer supported.

I'm really not sure who you're talking about now. Sounds like Russian BS. Do you have a source for any of these three things? > were pushing for the OK sign to be classified as a hate symbol used by secret Nazis > Ukraine h

I'm not sure the point of Quarkus. Its an easy way to get started with GraalVM development, but pre-compiled Java isn't any use for dev work. The autoreload classes is easy in most dev environments already too.

The problem with ancient history as that you never really knew what happened and exactly how many people died. Europeans certainly weren't the first empire to lay claim to India. Warfare, invasions and famine are as old as human histor

Does the US government have any authority on this? I thought there were a dozen countries launching satellites now.

Yeah my problems compounded because I grew up in a small unloved city where property was always cheap to big cities with expensive real estate that seemed crazy but maybe makes sense.

Two big differences. The distance between US cities is much further than Europe (aside from the NE USA which does have high speed rail). Also European cities have nice downtowns and good public transport so people do want to go from one cit

I think the point is you are breaking the law. Most sensible people wouldn't care. Its if you get an over zealous customs official, tax hound or local police. If you keep you nose clean you're probably OK but if you get in a fight

Everyone is recommending different brands but it really depends on your feet, posture and gait - there is no one brand or model that fits everyone. And of course walking surface and climate will impact as well. Dont buy online, go to a good

That is the good thing about it. If rates to up you're protected, if rates go down you can refinance. Its a great deal for US consumers that other countries dont have.
