Software doesn't need to be obvious and could need the sharing aspect of it. I am thinking of all the new ML models that are up and coming for example. Not only do you require some advanced software but also a lot of hardware capabilit

I don't understand your point, do you mean that this cannot happen in other fields? I imagine that this is the case for most stuff in the world. Ideas are not usually unique but it's the great execution of the idea that present th

So supporting radical left wing people with millions of dollars for output of political propaganda does not? Would you be as apologetic if Wikimedia would donate money to people who spread nazi propaganda as well? If nothing makes them extr

Well, not true. They have employed hundreds of people and pays them ridicolous salaries. Less than half is actually used on actually operating/developing the site. Yes that fund is the most controversial part but it's not the only

Who would want to donate to wikipedia when they know that a lot, probably most, goes to pushing woke politics? 2021 the hosting costs were $2.4 million and they spend well over $100 million each year. If they were to use their funds to actu

As mentioned previously, I applied and got denied. For obvious reasons I don't really want to go into details, but the experience I have of the swedish police force is that it is completely meaningless to even report things to them.

My gf bought a dell xps 15" with OLED and an i9 processor. I think it was reasonably priced compared to competitors but it just so happened that her screen broke, or it got loose. She called Dell and they sent a new one so she could tr

Like so many developer facing products or services, this one also fails to tell me what it is and what problem it solves and leaves me guessing. I guess that it is a backend library for doing websocket communication for node and perhaps a

Well I care more about simplicity and easy to develop in rather than battle-tested. Something like the Javalin or http4k would probably suit me the best. Of course, I have checked Ktor before, but I don't know if I particularly fancy t

Do you know of any good backend web frameworks for Kotlin? I would wish for something like FastAPI for python. Kotlin may actually be a great fit for a service I want to build and I hadn't really thought of it as an option until now.

One thing that Kotlin got going for it is the tooling. I mean, the creator of Kotlin creates some of the best programming tools out there so I'd imagine (without actual experience of Kotlin) that it has great tooling. Sometimes, the to
