Guess I’ll use that as my gateway to OpenGL

Do you also need to be drunk to be proud of it?

To put better comical effect to that line, you can add a separate hyperlink to each word of the sentence, each leading to a separate article of one of the projects abandoned by Google.

Even better if all of them were widely used ones, affirming your point.

I would love to talk about Qt Framework and QML, here, but QML doesn’t seem particularly great either.
Although I have only used QML, so I might only be knowing the pains of it and not the others.

Whenever I use ffmpeg, I am also using the browser.
Or I am using a pre-made script.

There are 2 types of old people now:

1. those who see it as magic
2. those who made the magic

I find it hard to understand how people are able to kiss the ground without the thought getting in their mind that - someone probably spat/pissed in that place not too long ago.

Isn’t that probably a feature, which would then also be advertised to the end user? Maybe for photo-artists and such

Just complete your KRAs beforehand and hand over the project to the Junior Dev, before then.

That’s the joke

Neh I’m good.
I’ll just stay in a different country during the purge.

Which ones?

GPS: Galactic Positioning System

Just suppose you are not selling the software outside of the galaxy and you will have to update your database (and transform and migrate all the data) when the 2 galaxy positioning system is formed.

It will depend upon other things you might want to do with it in the future.
If you want the record to stay “correct” in the future, you might want to have a separate entry for nationality information, which will be a 1-to-1 mapping with the other table you make for it. Why? …

• in the nationality information, along with the country code (for which you want to allow 3 character codes for forward compatibility), the date at which the the information was given in the form
• if possible, also include the date at which the nationality was provided (as in, provided to the user by the nation)

This should help determine what kind of change may occur in case of changes in the political landscape in the future, without you requiring to re-ask the form-filler.

Inspired by https://flightaware.engineering/falsehoods-programmers-believe-about-aviation/
And I am going to consider this stuff every time I make a database schema.

Stuff in the real world is subject to change, so instead of only storing the provided data as you asked for, make a ledger for events. And someone submitting a forms, will be another event.

This way, you get the flexibility to verify the provided data in the future, using information that you will have in the future, but don’t have at the time the data was provided.

Of course, this is only needed if it is needed.

They might even be trying to get an enrichment plant while they are at it, who knows?

Make sure the browser is made using Rust and run on a VM running on Linux, compiled to WASM.

Get desalination plants and a closed loop manufacturing process and all you need to care about is energy.

Ionic bonded compounds such as NaCl, when in water, interact with other ions around them.
Even other Na⁺ and Cl^- ions…

My previous mouse pad’s rubber had been breaking down due to the oils and sweat and my palm pressure.
These things tend to do that.

I have added this one additional consideration on frequently touched devices that I own.
Got a mouse, bought the plastic finish version instead of the rubber finish one. Got headphones, considering (-ing because that was the thing that made me start considering and I didn’t consider it before) ear-pad replacement options. Got a torch with a rubber-like cover: well that’s an outdoor thing made for light rain, so hoping it is rugged enough.
