There are properties going unused, for very many reasons. Second homes, holiday homes, etc. This also drives the price of properties up. This is one of the inputs to the problem. Planning permission laws is another input. The size and change of size of the people needing housing is another input.
Should a library become compromised with a vulnerability, fine (if said vulnerability is relevant to your usage). If you need a feature only available in a newer version, fine (I’m counting better performance as a feature).
What I’m seeing far too much of is upgrading for the sake of it. It feels like such a waste of dev time. Pinning dependencies should be absolutely fine.
In which case… there would definitely be no need to instruct to not write anything below the line, as nobody would have opened the letter.
I always recommend it to people who may be lucky enough to afford and choose it.
I take it this should apply to any web comments and messaging platform, and therefore require that all websites and web services comply if they can be accessed within the EU?
I’m not sure how that’s even remotely doable.
Calling them worthless at providing secure browsing seems far-fetched; calling them a scam is fully disingenuous.
I’m a Nord VPN customer, I’d quite like to know more — may help inform any future decision on renewing or even staying with them.
“We want to address them by their first name because it’s so much friendlier and personable”.
That’s all I can think of. Not exactly ‘decent’.

Me neither :-/
For instance, the `<button>` element has a default `role` of `button`, to indicate that it is a button, that can be clicked, and will perform an action when that is done. The role can be changed, for instance to `link`, to indicate that it now functions as a link. Similarly, a paragraph tag (`<p>`) can be assigned a role of `button`.
It’s very easy to abuse this, but it also means the underlying markup is a lot clearer, IMO. This may not be true to people who are not used to or don’t know about the semantic side of HTML, but herein lies a lot of the associated knowledge of that syntax, often unfortunately overlooked, sometimes leading to HTML being derided as a “beginner’s language”. There is a huge amount of knowledge around HTML.
As an example, a heading might contain the content: “A brief summary”. Without a semantic role, this does not convey the hierarchical position of that element within the document. Using the correct tag (in this case, `h{1|2…}` does provide this extra information and helps provide structure to the document.
