Oh no, people who are enthusiastic about privacy and open source don't want to support fascists! How can it be so?

Yes, that was very precisely chosen eight uninterrupted minutes of absolute cringe by the American leadership I saw. I'm sure the rest more than made up for the uncut embarrassing clown act the legacy media had chosen to air.

Danish has: Far får får får? Nej, får får ikke får, får får lam.

This translates to: Dad, does sheep get (give birth to) sheep? No, sheep don't get sheep, sheep get lambs.

Yes, sure, but look at it this way: California and Denmark together would be the world's 5th largest economy!

They weren't whistleblowing, they were going public. IIRC Snowden did use the whistleblowing path first but got nowhere. I guess, because he wasn't outed at that point, his identity was protected. Nothing else happened though.

My old Samsung phone could output to two Bluetooth devices at the same time, but it wasn't exactly synchronized. I don't think Bluetooth is good at getting the timing just right.

Me neither, but honestly it could go either way. On the one hand he's super pro privatisation and giving rich people more money. On the other he's releasing all the prisoners. The white Nazis anyway.

I had the exact same experience when starting a new job. The team had very strict rules that absolutely could not be broken. When I finally asked an architect he said the same thing: it's just a general guideline, but of course if it makes more sense to deviate, then by all means.

They fostered this culture because they mostly had junior programmers, but they never evolved beyond that because they were taught "good code" but never learned why it's good code.
