Thanks for this it makes it a bit more clear, but I'm now never going to touch web again lol. It sounds like hell to me. However, what you describe above sounds like what you need to write a full blown application. Why does one need th

Yes so you have libraries to help. But what I don't really understand is why do you have to have all the "build tools" that translates one language into another and a lot of all the other stuff. I have no idea what they reall

So it would be impossible to write google sheets in pure html/javascript (except for the server bits that is)?

I made my last webpage in 1999 using HTML tables and cut-up "design" jpgs so I am a bit out of date in this area. I see all these preprocessors and crap for "web apps" and I wonder why nobody just writes HTML/CSS&#x

Peertube is really cool in theory buy they are pushing torrent crap that displays the viewers public IP to all the other viewers and that is a major deal breaker for me. I've never understood why they set it up this way instead of just

I've set Signal to auto-delete old messages. This is like SMS and IRC not an archive. When I want to save something from a conversation in Signal (or slack or email), I copy it out and store it. Signal does not block you accessing your

In Norwegian this is called "Føre var prinsippet" or the precautionary principle [1]. This does not apply only to tech but to everything and I personally think it is a good idea to not barge into something without considering it.

If I were to guess I'd say it is from collecting guano to use as fertiliser. This practice is quite common and used to be so common that there is an expression in Norwegian for something selling very well, "Det selger som hakka mø

My extended family and I are using diasp.eu (a diaspora pod) with paid accounts. So far it's been working fine, we only need it to share photos in a closed environment. I haven't had an account at facebook since around 2012.

It's not, the consumer advocate in Norway has already released one report on the subject [1, PDF] Pushing all this through the legal system will take some time but the watchdogs in different countries are not sitting idle. [1] https:&

Yeah but nobody is going to get on that thing. The moment someone tries to use that model again there will be headlines like "XX Airlines puts death plane back in the sky" etc. It's a waste of money trying to get it back on t

Why are they even bothering with the MAX? Do they really think that people will willingly board a MAX plane again when travelling? I'm certainly not going to do that.

It's not quite at the level of Japan, but Aftenposten, which is a newspaper in Norway, conducted a test [1] (translation [2]) in Oslo where they "lost" 20 wallets. 15 eventually returned. Personally I've lost my wallet t

It's not always easy to keep track of the idioms in different languages! In this case you can also translate it to an American idiom: It's a pain in the ass :)

It's quite hard to drive in Oslo now. Not impossible but it's not very fun and the speed limits are very low. When I have to go inside "ring 1", I usually drive to a free parking/charging spot for electric cars and

In Norwegian unskyld means i'm sorry which corresponds to german. Many of these words just change a bit over time like geld/gjeld which is money in German and debt in Norwegian.

And this is the reason I never touch anything that has a connection to Facebook. No surprise really but it irks me as I wanted the rift some time ago but then Facebook bought it. Luckily it seems like Valve Index will be a good alternative.

I was working as a hired SGI/SUN admin via ABB for Statoil in 1997 in Stavanger. The HQ was packed with Ultra 60s with creator3d or elite3d cards. Some even had both. We had to keep a few hundred of these running and they were used to
