    I'm totally expecting from Google to discontinue, restrict or change the API for Google Sheets at one point. It will likely be in the moment when it's hardest for you to timely upd…

    I'm wondering why the article fails to mention that there is a sufficiently good and easy mechanism to compare and verify the new safety numbers. You just talk to your peer and rea…

    No, Slav Macedonia was acceptable to us. But not to the Albanians, and we changed our constitution in 2001 to allow them to veto this kind of things (under strong US/NATO pressure)…
