I'm waiting for the NY Times to sue this one too.[1] [1] https://apnews.com/article/new-york-times-wordle-clones-take...

Long time user of HeidiSQL here. I respect the author a lot. He's been tirelessly working on this project for many years, mostly alone. Of course, that's due to the closed nature o…

I assume you're referring to Cape Talk 567 [1], which broadcasts on 567 kHz AM/MW in the Cape Town region. I also enjoy it, although the late night political debates can become tir…

I'm a student at the Actuarial Society of South Africa. I have been for the past 20 years. This demo question, while not easy for a non-technical person, should be a piece of cake …

Ah, thanks. Then I misremembered my high school chemistry from 25y ago. I thought rust (the verb) is oxidation and that when you add an acid, it would be reduction (to get back the…

The red-brown of South Africa (and I guess Argentina and Australia too) are basically midway points of their lush green regions and dry desert regions. South Africa is as green as …
