I don't know what 1956 felt like in western Europe but the current situation definitely doesn't feel like peace even though the war is not fought in western Europe. The war is at the EU border with stray missiles and overreaching

Next question: Why doesn't the query optimizer make this change automatically? The version with DISTINCT is much nicer to write and read.

But everyone wouldn't suddenly start using English, that's not feasible. Is everyone in your family fluent in English (my family is not)? In every country, there are people who couldn't adapt and disproportionally so in vulne

To begin with, the training material is tokenized and one thing the choice of the optimal tokenizer depends on is the source language(s). Consider that in English, the optimal tokenization of "cats" may be "cat" + "

Regarding orthographic depth, I think you can test your claim by asking people to read aloud some written text (or to write down something that you say). At least in Finnish, I think you will hear the "written standard", that is,

Microsoft does not use LSP for its own language TypeScript. They have something that works better for VSCode: tsserver. When TypeScript evolves, Microsoft updates tsserver and VSCode as needed. To get the updates to Emacs, someone needs to
