I'm German and we had to read the book in school. Born in the 80s. I also think It's set around where I live, but it's been a while.

don't we? We call somewhere and revoke the Passport, atleast in Germany.

What kind of hardware do you run it on?

Just FYI, Firefox reader mode does the same thing. It's a little button in the address bar.

Sure, I just gave the Browser API example as evidence that the 'hallucination' problem is not gone. OP said it's like "talking to a professor" and you can use it to learn college level stuff. This is where I disagree. I did not double check my professors or text books usually.

But you need to verify everything unless it’s self evident. The number of times CoPilot (Sonnett 4) still hallucinates Browser APIs is astonishing. Imaging trying to learn something that can’t be checked easily, like Egyptian archeology or something.

There are some matters at the council that just need a qualified majority to move forward.

Other matters, notably foreign policy, require unanimity.

No, I think windows by default only applies suffixes to Domains with 0 dots maybe?

I can't reproduce the "worst case" i.e. that if I ping "google.com" it gets first sent to "google.com.fritz.box". I'm on windows 10 and have a FRITZ!Box 7590.

If I ping "google.com" It just queries google.com If I ping a domain I have never visited it just does a query for that domain.

It only appends .fritz.box if I, e.g. only ping "google".

So maybe they fixed it? I also changed quite a lot of settings throughout the years.

I think I agree, if that is legally possible. I don't think apple provides any important infrastructure like Amazon, Microsoft and Google do. It's basically a luxury company. Might be bad for the people who already own iOS devices and need it to survive in one way or another (e.g. as a wallet).

FYI: According to the twitter comments, the Cybertruck does not have autopilot.

As a non-native speaker, I have never heard of dissaving. Is it a common word?

How's the battery life?

They also have anti ship missles, plus it’s not a one size fits all approach.

Everytime I read about longevity research and how many people are in favor of it I can't stop thinking about this speech. And one of the endings of Cyberpunk 2077.

Same. I was unaware that Belgium or India have such systems and often wished for them to exist in Germany, but thought that it was impossible for privacy reasons in the EU. Now it's clear that it's just incompetence or lack of funds or vision in Germany.

Yes, specs and other technical documents. For example, the html spec[1] itself.

My guess is backwards compatibility. There might be applications out there that have a dispose method for different reasons. Symbol.dispose is literally impossible to be already in use, since symbols are guaranteed to be unique.

How do you handle user credentials or general inputs? If I type in my Netflix credentials, don't you and/or my watch party friends get access to them in some way?

Russia can't win a war against NATO, so they will not attack Poland or Germany. Maybe Moldova or something. This fear mongering is ridiciouslus. They can't even win against Ukraine, for crying out loud. Poland, France, UK, Germany(, Turkey?) would together crush them in a couple of months. Add Finland and Sweden and it gets reduced to weeks. Add the US and it'll take a couple of days. (Hyperbole, but still).

They are hopelessly outclassed in all categories but nukes. And UK/France has a couple of them, so Russia can't nuke willy nilly.

What? From whom? How? Russia? Nuclear armed Russia?

But that was when we had the majority of our industrial capability in Europe and with aid from the US. We also still had open coal mines and people didn't mind burning coal and wood in masses (which was the primary heat source at the time).

But, most importantly, we also had lots of young people. The aging of Europe will be the final nail in the coffin. Who will rebuild Europe? Not the roughly 30 percent over the age of 60 (who, coincidently, ran Europe into the ground for the last 30 years+).

The party who was supposed to be against abolishing our nuclear plants, the conservative CDU and the liberal FDP, actually abolished them. So, kinda? No matter who we elected at that time, nobody would have kept them.

There's a problem with Nuclear this year due to 'mistery corrosion' [1]

Could you elaborate? I didn't understand what this even means. Did someone named "Theodora D." in 1978 donate alot of money and now the chairs are named after them?

Not only a larger proportion, but a larger number in absolute terms.

~2,000,000 in US vs ~1,700,000 in China.

Yes, way more stable. At least cypress, I don't have much experience with playwright. We never had an issue regarding brittleness or stability. We do, however, get sometimes frustrated over certain API choices, like the way sessions and cookies are managed and how hard it is to keep a value throughout a test suite etc.

I'm sorry that you and your colleagues/friends were treated badly. I know that the pain is real and I can't do anything but apologize for it.

And I obviously won't defend German businesses (or for that matter businesses in general).

But believe me when I say that the average German has no problems with Eastern Europeans. Funny that you mention Romania, I work in a decent sized software company and my team lead is from Romania and beloved by us all and the company (and, as a team lead, better payed than most German engineers in the company). However, even among normal citizens, stereotypes and a sense of superiority can be found in certain circles. But I gurantee you it is a (vocal) minority. Salary for tech workers is generally low in Germany (and maybe the EU as a whole?) especially compared to the UK or US.

Racial profiling of the kind you describe is definitely not "according to German law", we have several anti-discriminatory laws on the books. But, of course, reality can't live up the ideals.

If you need help regarding those clearly illegal circumstances or situations (especially regarding police and lodging) there is the Federal Anti-Discriminatory Agency [1], which has guidelines.

It's a step in the right direction, isn't it? LNG can also be imported from other countries and, in the long run, gas dependence should be massively reduced once gas-powered heating is replaced by electronic heading via heat pumps or something like that.

Even if we stop paying for gas and oil right now, that won't stop the Russian invasion. They have massive currency reserves, are relatively self sufficient etc.

Whereas if we do not receive gas anymore, it would wreck our own economies, which would lead to massive unemployment, social unrest and maybe going to the political extremes in the long run.

It would basically be European suicide. We need to be strong to help Ukraine.

That being said, the day we can stop paying for Russian gas is the day we will truly be free. Germany's liberatarian finance minster called renewables "freedom energy" and that could not be truer IMO.
