Basically most of Jane Street's published code[0] via its dependency on Core. [0]: https://github.com/janestreet/bonsai/blob/f31661450eb133fe89...

Yeah, but you need to know where to buy it, how to get it delivered etc. Getting a Gameboy Advance cable in Denmark is $18.5 and delivery might take a week or so. Anyway, the exact…

Yes, I agree. It's a bit weird because finally, after decades SEPA ICT is here and could be used to back this thing. It just needs to be more user-friendly.

Polish people have such a fear of Germans, thinking Germans are constantly scheming to screw Poland over. Whereas most Germans barely know Poland even exists. As someone who has li…

Isn't this pretty much what Nothing are doing? At least one of their phones has a different battery rating in India than elsewhere, despite containing the same hardware.

Yes, its exactly that Stephen Dolan.

Using Git when it came out would have probably meant to use Cogito, which has been dead for such a long time by now. Or have bet on Mercurial. Which is also close to dead. Or darcs…

If you bought into NFTs when they were hot you would have lost money. Not every new tech is worth investing immediately.

All of this is true. Having lived in Germany it's quite different, but I'd argue the centralized handling of the CPR is actually quite convenient and doesn't meaningfully impact pr…

> The big drawback of one time passwords is that it doesn't protect against man-in-the-middle attacks such as phishing, which is in practice one of the most common attacks on syste…

Yeah but functionally it is the same. If the website is down it doesn't matter if I got the OTP code from a piece of paper or the dongle.

The way it worked before was that you had basically a piece of paper with OTP codes and the website would prompt you for a very specific one. How that would've prevented this issue…

No. As I understand it the previous system, NemID was actually (co?)designed by the banks so this is what they all use. Likewise MitID is another unholy alliance of Nets (a Danish …

A bit of a shame that it mentions the wretched type K plugs in Denmark but leaves out the "EDB" type DK 2-5a plugs/sockets, which add a new dimension of problems to the mix!

Porkbun has .party for $21.09 (bar the first year promotion, not sure about VAT) and INWX (DE, VAT included) has it 32.80€ . It is definitely more but not as scary as you made it s…

At least apparent complexity. See "Expert C Programming: Deep C Secrets" which creeps up on you shockingly fast because C pretends to be simple by leaving things to be undefined bu…

> I've had horrible experience with German shops, when you have an issue they do whatever to make it look like it's your own fault. That's just the usual experience of German custo…

> It's hard to take these "YouTube is popular due to monopoly" arguments seriously when the competition can't even get the basics right. I feel the same about a lot of online shopp…

> Do people still use those Germanized terms? In a way? I always found it more sensible to use German words like "Namenwort" instead of "Nomen" to express German grammar, instead o…

I wouldn't be surprised. Probably because Mickey hasn't starred in anything relevant for a large part of the younger generation in many years, maybe even decades. Disney doesn't re…

Let's not forget that GNU Emacs also had his competitor, XEmacs which spurred GNU Emacs to improve. Similar with GCC and EGCS where the EGCS later became the new GCC.

Allegedly.

Bike lanes yes. But where are all the safety features you can see here? Bike lanes are often separated, but not always. On many streets they are just painted on. They are rarely co…

According to my browsers dev-tools the text on the page is Dossier[0], which happens to be a font by the same author. I admit I also first thought that it would be set in the font …

Keep in mind that R&K only has two iron gall inks: Sallix and Ebony. The rest is normal inks, but of good quality for sure. KWZ got started as a producer of iron gall inks but has …
