In The Netherlands the government tries to buy out farmers and they have to promise not to start a farm elsewhere in the EU.

Just the cost of doing business. Quite sure the fines are lower than the gains. So this kind of behaviour will continue in the future.

It’s nice they look at the costs, but it would be fair to also look at the positive effects of roads for economies, that value probably greatly outweighs the costs for many roads. Goods need to be transported anyways and in many situations

Seems kinda weird. If you'd run such a farm, targeting a specific country, seems very stupid to do these kinds of attacks from that very country.

You can use Wise [0] as a sort of bank (to receive money on) and the nice thing is, you can open accounts for many different types of currencies. This way, your clients can pay in their native currencies and you can just (cheaply) change in

I used to prefer Apple Mail on the desktop over web-based alternatives, but nowadays Apple Mail has become quite unstable and slow for me, so I’ve been using gmail’s web interface more and more. A shame really, desktop should provide a bett

In The Netherlands there's a guy (Johan Vollenbroek) that sues the Dutch government for nitrogen emissions through his foundation (stichting), but at the same time owns a public LLC (BV) that advises on how to avoid or reduce nitrogen

I am not sure if it’s easier in other languages (no experience except mobile dev). But I do know packaging macOS and iOS apps is also a painful process and becomes more painful over time (e.g. Apple’s recently introduced notarization proces

A couple of months ago I started working at a company that (mainly) develops C# libraries. The pipeline to deploy is complicated. Using a tool like ILMerge to combine DLLs into a single DLL (to prevent DLL hell issues). Using Babel to obfus

I thought (and still think) Objective-C is quite nice. Kinda hoping my employer wants to port (wrap) it’s C++ based library to Objective-C (and Swift) in the coming year. I’d be the primary guy doing the work and I’d enjoy it :)

If you can be a great parent, you’ve already achieved greatness from my point of view. And perhaps easier to achieve.

Glypha is fun, used to play it a lot on macOS in the System 7.0 (or so) days. I expect the remake to be similar fun. Would buy it again on GOG, but Steam I kinda try to avoid these days.

I have found Blake & Mortimer [0] to also be a very interesting series. The graphical style is very similar to Tintin as the author (Edgar P Jacobs) worked together with Hergé in some capacity and later became a friend. --- [0]: https:

I think in case of most games, maybe 90% of the already audience (if not more), was male. It must have been easier to write then his/her game all the time - and also more pleasant to read. I think it makes/made perfect sense.

I’ve used BBEdit ages ago, but these days SublimeText is fine as well. And perhaps even better (again, not sure since I haven’t used BBEdit for ages). From my experience SublimeText handles large files fine, but I never really tried to open
