What do you mean by limited power? The recent modifications to StGb 113 and 114 are _very_ open in what they describe as an attack on a police officer, which gets you a minimum sentence of 3 years.. Edit: My apologies, my memory was vastly

I don't understand the question? I'm saying this because such numbers often spark anti-protester sentiment in the rest of the population, and the police is contributing by reporting exaggerated numbers of injured officers. I did n

One thing to note when reading such reports with quotes the German police, is that the bar for a police officer being "hurt" is ridiculously low in Germany. E.g. if an officer is grabbing your arm, and you try to yank it free, thi

Are you suggesting that having your video taken down from YouTube and going to jail are equally problematic?

It's interesting how you say 1) it takes really long to get a replacement of the ground (it's gonna be riddled with bugs etc) 2) wake me up when it's an actual problem To me it seems like these two don't coexist well.. i

I'm confused by the comparison because, as you stated, Bezos declined to be in the photo whereas the other people did no such thing.

Fascinating, I have mostly the opposite experience: I get annoyed quickly when browsing code on GitHub because I can't properly search through code (which I do a lot when reading a new codebase) and then clone..

There is, of course, more nuance than "non-issue" and "scandal of the century". It's good to know that these women were actually present, but I still find it interesting at least that nobody noticed that two people

Uberspace [1] does something like this in Germany. You get to pay what you want, too. [1]: https://uberspace.de/en/ Edit: I'm not affiliated with them other than being a customer.

This reminded me of this [1] talk from 32c3, which talks about the same issues and presents and overview of some approaches ppl have come up with. Somewhat BSD centric, but I found it interesting back then. [1]: https://media.ccc

I like to look at it from a different perspective: Programming has mostly looked the same since we moved away from punchcards, and it seems worthwhile exploring different approaches (eg visual programming) and augmentations to the existing

There's always two sides to a story. That being said, it seems like every other week now there's a story of a cloud service or provider shutting something down or removing something, without our with very little notice, and the on

I think that's an oversimplification.. let's say I have daily backups. Let's also say I'm opening my email client in the morning and receive 20 mails, but because I haven't had any coffee yet I accidentally delete t

Hey, can you elaborate whether you're hiring remote beyond Denmark/Hungary? The job descriptions don't mention it, but your first line does..

This does not factor in the fact that planes cover vastly more distance than cars though, right? People rarely drive 10000km to eg a conference or vacation.

Can you explain why this is better than changing the configuration?

The origins are, as far as I know, unknown but probably based on Guanche which was spoken there before the Spanish arrived. It was later adapted to Spanish. While I could never use Silbo actively myself, understanding it was not too difficu

Interesting. I was about to back this when I realized it doesn't appear to have an SD card slot to store multiple games and/or save game state... Feels like an odd choice to me, given the capabilities of the hardware.

Quite a similar thing exists on the Canary Islands in Spain, where I grew up [1]. It was even taught in school, though I joined in too late and never managed to get the basic whistling parts, which made the rest quite impossible to learn :&

So in summary you are saying they used "intuition" wrongly, while subsequently saying that it's really hard to say what intuition is objectively, and when someone pointed out that their understanding of intuition does at leas

The fact that this criticism was uttered by the Google CEO is deliciously ironic. I do think, however, that it is a valid point in general: I would love to see Apple selling low(er)-cost devices that appeal e.g. the Indian market, so that t

While I do see that this might be valuable, I find the argument strange and it makes me wonder in which area you work that this is so alien to you. I've generally come to expect that any software I download and try to build might, thro

If you're interested in more context around this ship and one of the slaves it brought to the US, I highly recommend "the story of the last slave" written by Zora Neale Hurston in the 1930s, and only recently published (origi

Good point. Most of the examples are simply wrappers around core features of RIOT, such as gnrc (its network stack). For a larger snippet, this is a UDP server, for example: https://github.com/RIOT-OS/RIOT/blob&#x2

He does no such thing. The passcode is never entered in front of the mask. They also explicitly state in their Q&A that the passcode was never entered in front of the mask.
