That sounds like even their leaders assume they’re horribly stupid…

That’s something I never got about cops in the US. Everywhere in Europe, there are always two cops per car, at least in the places I have been.

How much storage did it use overall? I had one instancs running on a 40gb HDD VM and it ran out of disk space in like 2,5 months. From what I’ve seen it was a mixture of 66,6/33,3 postgres/ images and other media. Didn’t had the time to learn how to clean it up and prevent it from happening again after a month. All happens like may to August last year.

Not the one who wrote the command: The Keepass DB encryption is afaik pretty damn good. So that wouldn’t be an attack vector I would worry about. Also and those are just my five cents and I might probably be ripped in pieces by some it sec people, I wouldn’t fear too much about a backdoor being put into your systems when self hosting. If someone actually does this it’s most probably gonna be some actor related to a government that targets you for whatever reason and at least then most of us wouldn’t stand a chance to keep all of their IT devices save, especially when they could stop you on the streets and get physical access to some devices. On the other hand hosted services with thousands of customers are also a lucrative target for cyber crime and which you as a self hosting individual are most probably not. This reduces the possible threats quite a bit, at least if you keep up some default safety stuff to not just let any wannabe hacker from wherever into your self hosted services that would be happy if they can get a 5 thousands dollars/ euros or whatever from you.

Then something must be wrong with the way you configured your OS.

The scroll wheel isn’t quiet when scrolling really fast, but it’s sooo nice to use.

Had the MX Master 3, there the scroll wheel wasn’t quite. Got a MX Master 3s after I gave the first one to my gf and there the scrolling is super quiet.

Even back then Save As... was working for me and I never bothered replacing the Firefox snap with the .deb version. Probably some weird configuration on your machine, since I set up quite a bunch of machines with plain Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and never got complaints about this.

And also because it’s a comfortable cover up for any kind of money saving stupidity. We don’t need proper requirements engineering, we’re agile. We don’t need an operations team we’re doing an agile DevOps approach. We don’t need frontend Devs, we’re an agile team you all need to be full stack. I have often seen agility as an excuse to push more works towards the devs who aren’t trained to do any of those tasks.

Also common problem is that still tons of people believe agile means unplanned. This definitely also contributes to projects failing that are just agile by name.

I don’t think your conclusion is correct and a correlation between the two numbers is by far not enough to assume a causality between the two of them. I would rather assume there are a lot of other factors being involved. Like e.g. the education system, especially the amount of years spent on education before starting to work, the general wealth of the society, the social securities provided the government, like e.g. health care, unemployment support etc.

Not that new given that a law informally called the “The Hague Invasion Act” exists for more then 20 years and it’s only purpose is being a threat to the ICC .

God from the bible. The whole book will just be a bunch of ancient stories nobody should care about anymore. Would be interesting to see what the world would be like without Christianity.

Could easily be that they have a bunch of people in Munich they can not fire since German labour laws are at least compared to a lot of places not that bad and they have to come up with some work for them. So having them work on this is still cheaper then having the people in the valley plus “useless” people in Munich.

I don’t know the reason for this but if I would need to guess then it’s mainly about not being afraid of being sued to bankruptcy in the rare case something happens. Though I really can’t remember reading about anything happening to a child in a news paper, so I assume (or let’s say hope) no to drastic accidents happened on German playgrounds in the last years.

Never considered that health insurance might be an issue to come up with those super safe playgrounds. But yeah if your retirement is endangered by you kiddo climbing up a monkey bar set it might feel way more dangerous. Could maybe also explain to a certain why most European playgrounds are more adventurous then their US counterparts.

EDIT: Also tbh I really do think it’s a good thing for kids to be able to climb up on things and explore stuff that might look dangerous especially to the small ones and learn how to behave their and how to overcome those situations and also learn to improve their body control at the same time as well.

What an amazing time to be alive that those few words are providing all the required context.

He’s not and btw the proper name for this used in German is “Misere” which is originally Latin meaning “have mercy” but the word is also used to just described something as a really bad situation.

I wouldn’t necessarily call it civilized world, but yeah for basically every country that belongs to the so called “1st world” except the US it is and it takes a few years to become a police officer.

But it has to start speaking to them in the first place and I think OP was specifically looking for the “conversation starters”

Same thing with why do I need to pay someone to do maintenance my car, kitchen, AC, whatever works perfectly well.

Also why should we pay developers to do stuff like dependency upgrades and other maintenance or software just runs™

I remember it being like that already in 2014. The only thing especially annoying I remember was having to use optimus to manually switch between the “internal” Intel GPU and the dedicated Nvidia GPU to not run out of battery within an hour. But the whole set up thing was never an issue for me on Mint and Ubuntu even 10 years ago.
