That's interesting, but I guess it needs some legal support at the Austrian level, because the regulation doesn't prescribe those uses for the certificate.

This Regulation establishes the legal ground for the processing of personal data within the meaning of point (c) of Article 6(1) and point (g) of Article 9(2) of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, necessary for the issuance and verification of the interoperable certificates provided for in this Regulation. It does not regulate the processing of personal data related to the documentation of a vaccination, a test or a recovery event for other purposes, such as for the purposes of pharmacovigilance or for the maintenance of individual personal health records
Member States may process personal data for other purposes, if the legal basis for the processing of such data for other purposes, including the related retention periods, is provided for in national law, which must comply with Union data protection law and the principles of effectiveness, necessity and proportionality, and should contain provisions clearly identifying the scope and extent of the processing, the specific purpose involved, the categories of entity that can verify the certificate as well as the relevant safeguards to prevent discrimination and abuse, taking into account the risks to the rights and freedoms of data subjects
So, if my interpretation is right, a national law backing those "secondary" uses must be in place.
Besides, the recommendation for people who had the infection is to get the shot 6 months after the diagnosis, so it would make no sense to include that information in the recovery one.

So the local nightclub cann't(legally) check these certificates.

There are Android and iOS apps for QR reading, although they don't point to the production certificate chains so can't be used to verify "real" EU certs.
I don't doubt about your anecdote, but I don't think that it's a very common occurrence.

To be a comparable case two conditions should be met, namely that a) the bomb threat is real, and b) landing in Minsk the most rational decision.
If both a) and b) are real, well, everything was lawfully managed and the blogger just had bad luck. But if they aren't, no it's not the same case at all.
The object system mess though... I have no words.
I started using FreeBSD(4.3 or 4.4) in the Uni out of curiosity, but kept it for the massive improvement in performance and stability. Loads that brought Linux to its knees(>10) were handled easily by FreeBSD.
The documentation was also superb... the only drawback was having to compile everything, never got used to it.
I don't know how younger people force themselves to learn to use the command line. I had a windows 98 at home at the time and the university enviroment seemed primitive in comparison, but I had no choice.
And were lucky, we had X-terminals!

Alonso de Salazar Frías has been given the epithet "The Witches’ Advocate"[1] by historians, for his role in establishing the conviction, within the Spanish Inquisition, that accusations against supposed witches were more often rooted in dreams and fantasy than in reality, and the inquisitorial policy that witch accusations and confessions should only be given credence where there was firm, independent, corroborating evidence. He was probably the most influential figure in ensuring that those accused of witchcraft were generally not put to death in seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Spain. The Spanish Inquisition was one of the first institutions in Europe to rule against the death penalty for supposed witches. Its Instructions of 1614, which embodied Salazar's ideas, were influential throughout Catholic Europe.
I'm not saying you are wrong but this requires a far more exhaustive analysis.
_In the UK, each mammogram is interpreted by two readers, and in cases of disagreement, an arbitration process may invoke a third opinion. These interpretations occur serially, such that each reader has access to the opinions of previous readers._
I wonder if it's sensible to condition the opinion of the second radiologist this way. My first impression is that this should be done blindly or the temptation of just confirming the previous reading because of fatigue/lazynes or to avoid confrontation could severely affect the results.
Similarly, a future in which the radiologist gets too much support could just impair their skills and turn them into a sort of a mechanical worker who simply accepts what the AI overlord has decided.
There wasn't much to start with, since the moorish conquest didn't displace the people but "incentivized"(ahem...) people to convert.
> How many conversos did the Inquisitors burn at the stake, generations after their ancestors converted, on the strength of rumormongering by jealous neighbors?
It's hard to know, but I've seen stimates around 3k-5k. Germanic wytchhunts probably had a much higher number of victims. The Inquisition was a pretty bureacratic institution, and it had proper trials with defence lawyers, questioning of witnesses, etc... Inquisitor [Alonso de Salazar](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alonso_de_Salazar_Fr%C3%ADas) for example, saved probably thousands of people by setting high standards in Inquisition trials.
Yes, it was VERY BAD and TERRIBLE, I'm not condoning it, but it wasn't the worse that humanity has seen. By far.
People installing binary blobs from anonymous github repos which are politically charged while granting location permissions... what could possibly go wrong?
That's not true. The Almohads, unlike the almoravids, forced christian and jews to convert, under threat of death.
This was your original claim. You are implicitely withdrawing it and moving the goalpost to "evidence of substantial violence"(which is ok, but it was so easy to rebate in its original form that couldn't resist). BTW, states have the monopoly of violence which makes the comparison complicated to asses to anyone who believes in representative democracy and the separation of powers(policemen were trying to execute a court order, no less and no more).
You can keep your 500$, I already knew you were bluffing.
Regarding the issue you are bringing. Yes, the police intervention was a massive clusterfuck. It was impossible to stop the so called "referendum" without the complete cooperation of catalan police and the civil guard and national police cops were sent to an impossible mission. Some of them misbehave, probably out of frustration and fear/anger. This is something a policemen should never do.
If that's your point I could agree.
There are other kinds of contracts(marriage is a contract), where one of the partners can't just walk away from it with its share of the assets.
> There's people demanding a referendum (as seen in Scotland) you just put them in jail, problem solved.
It only seems a good example because it didn't pass. I bet it would be a worse-than-Brexit one if it had. The reality is that a country(a modern state) is built over a thousand of trade-offs that can't be just decided in a referendum.
I wish it would be that easy. I'm pretty tired of this mess.
