For example: You could enter some fragile object and then let the Prolog search for best shape of box for it. Only problem is that all (most?) Prologs suck, the realm of natural numbers is not in the search space. In this case there is also

Finland tried to help Norway against German occupation 1940, but realized soon that the Norwegian "Army" was just peace-loving nanny boys with two weeks of training in pea-shooting and parading. This might been the crucial moment

Most "rugged" phones are quite easy to open. But the problem lies elsewhere, nobody makes new batteries for old phones.

As is Finnish. And we do well. But the writing system was invented 600 years ago. So those Siberian-Eskimo-etc weird plosives and ingresses slowly disappeared, even if they were originally coded in the script. As an anecdote: if the English

Funny point is that Russia trusts more NATO-Norway than Finland or Sweden. There is somekind of agreement that allows Norwegians to visit without passports or visa areas near the border. This does not apply to other Nordics. My Swedish frie

Before I knew about Catch&Throw I invented GOBACK. Logical next step would be SAFE-GOTO. It would GOBACK so much that it can safely GOTO somewhere.

The point is that these "Lawyers of Soviets Law" have been unemployed for 30 years enjoying 1000 euro unemployed benefits. They need to be listed ASAP and deported. And Finland is joining NATO.

Interesting part of "Moscow Court" is that when Finland invited indigenous Finns (eg Ingrians) to move to Finland in 1990, we suddenly had enormous amount of "lawyers" (of Soviet law) moving in and attaining Finnish citi

This was the best part from propaganda film of 1943. I was just trying to point out how many facets there are on issues. SS-Vikings was very busy "liberating" Ukraine. BTW. Colonel Noko was SS-liaison officer in Lapland, because o

There was also an issue about Russian howitzers bought from (East) Germany. Finland gave them to Estonia as military aid. Estonians tried to send them to Ukraine, but Green-Reds from both Germany and Finland opposed this.
