I hadn’t thought of that use case. Say for example you find 1990’s Clipper code and want to give it a try on a modern Linux. Thanks

Yes. Quick lookup gives Argentina, Brazil, Spain, Norway, Cuba, Sweden has copays with a limit. Need to do your homework, but some have very easy residency requirements. With Europe the best bet is to get jus sanguinis citizenship if you ha

No. This was meant as a comment to mention that it does not need to be this way. Maybe voting can help. Also, it's actual possibility. I have moved countries, and I'm not rich. If I had a serious condition I'd move off the US

I see no problem with COBOL. I'd rather have my credit card transaction be processed with 40yo well tested COBOL than Java from the newest intern using copilot.

It's much more accurate to assume "everybody has Whatsapp" as the baseline. Many countries with users with plans with no data but unlimited Whatsapp

Marathon kayaking is huge in South Africa, Europe, and other countries. Makes a much better show than sprint but marathoners have to move to sprint to go to the Olympics (SA Andy Birket) Much less popular, shorter, less fun.

Not if everybody plays, in every school recess, every park, rec center, etc. That's how football is in most countries. "Pay to play" is a very US thing.

Makes me want a dumb phone with just Google maps and WhatsApp even more. (WhatsApp is the de facto standard everywhere out of USA)

Does the trackpad skip? That’s the only thing that is not perfect about my x220. The only app that kills it is the dammed Zoom

Give context and ask the question. I like Moscato, I don’t like Extra Brut. What champagne should I by for New Year’s Eve?

Isn’t GMRS what people use in adventures? Off road, kayaking, mountain bike etc. Being limited by license requirements makes the majority on any trip not able to use VHF.

No x509 certificates involved? In countries with legally binding digital signatures (I.e. Argentina) you need a cert issued following identity verification.

It’s mostly because in free public universities there’s an appetite for making things hard. Very hard. The less students graduate, the most prestigious they think they are

You'll find a bunch of tech recruiters asking you about Big O notation for the algorithm you propose. They want to look smart. Most of the times you'll smell shitty code, inefficient loops, slow I/O, waste of memory without f

I’d leave ethics to the family even in a traditional school.

Agree. Not going to school is only for some privileged people who can live on only one income and at least one parent can guide (not “teach”). I wish the benefits of homeschooling could be scaled to mass education (self paced, adapted to e

The contents taught at school are overrated. They can be learned with 1-2 hours a day of homeschooling. It’s mostly about childcare and people who just repeat what they went through. Even coping with bullying is taken as learning how to dea
