Australian here. Barely anyone uses cash anymore. It's weird to see debates about moving towards technology we had 35 years ago which we don't even use anymore.

Kind of emblematic of the issue of Americans not looking to other countries to see what works and what doesn't.

It's so strange to start with "stop minting pennies" but not "stop pennies being legal tender". But then as an Australian it also seems very weird to even have pennies in circulation. We ditched ours in the 80s.

It does say that paper boarding passes won't exist at all. No printing at the airport. And they claim this makes flying "greener". They also call passengers who don't check-in beforehand "stupid".

This is reassuring. I started vime coding a side project and quickly got repulsed by the feeling of disconnection and lack of ownership. I put it on the shelf for a bit then came back and started over, writing all the code myself (but with

As someone who works in web mapping, I have to quibble with "The Google Maps of...". This is just an interactive map - it doesn't have features that particularly resemble Google Maps, particularly navigation. A bit of work on
