To be fair, using phones while driving was banned in most countries back when phones still had physical buttons.

Best I can do instead is calling it x.

What’s the significance of the colors? Greenish = “stealing”, orange = “okay”, yellow = “grey area”? Seems awfully negative, maybe invert the whole thing.

I think you got that wrong, you got +Inf, -Inf and two NaNs, but they’re both just NaN. As you wrote signed NaN makes no sense, though technically speaking they still have a sign bit.

If I’m not mistaken there are metal eating/corroding microbres that can live in vacuum.

Yes, the ECHR is part of the Council of Europe (no affiliation with the EU or their two confusingly named councils), and for example Russia was a member until 2022.

It is not permitted to circumvent effective technological measures

Germany has a similar law and unless it was changed it is legal to circumvent ineffective technological measures which means if you can circumvent it it is ineffective, making the entire law kind of pointless, because how would you circumvent something that can’t be circumvented.

Absolutely agree on Red Dead Redemption 2. Another point considering it’s an open world game it plays extremely linearly and sometimes in missions it tells you that you can’t leave a certain area for no reason.

No, it’s masculine in German and French.

Every once in a while there are two words that are written the same but have different gender, if you use the wrong article it’ll get confusing for a second and you’ll have to figure out from context what was actually meant.

He uses his own http server called gatling and an LDAP server instead of a database.

Keep functions or methods short. Anything longer than 20 - 50 lines is likely too long

If it doesn’t fit on my screen it’s too long.

Maybe I should sell them asbestos as a new health food.

OP is trying to do this in order to bring popularity to a bunch of reactionary political takes.

How? By posting a meme about asbestos? Do the reactionaries think asbestos is safe to use as snow special effect or what?

Majority of users on lemmy are probably americans by now and they assume everything is about their country.

Lower budgets would probably be better. High budgets mean high risk, developers and publishers try to minimize that risk and you get bland games that try to cater to too many tastes. Movies suffer from the same problem. They get budgets in the hundreds of millions and you wonder what they spent it all for.

I read several different drafts I could find since writing that comment and although it’s alll written somewhat vague in general, OP’s point isn’t in any draft I read.

No, those are separate. It’s about open source projects that have developers working on it in their free time (not getting paid for it) and developers who get paid for it. You having a job as a software developer and working on a project outside your work time doesn’t make it a “commercial activity”.

Without having read any part of this act I’d assume you having a job and you developing an open source app are two separate things unless your job involves developing that open source app.
