Transport them? What are you talking about? The Soviets had bases all over the place in Eastern Europe. The case being discussed here, Eastern Germany, was just behind the iron curtain, remember? Soviet troops were at…
Playing devil's advocate .. it will also get the kids more disconnected from the natural environment that we're embedded in, after all. You know those statistics of so-and-so-many kids out of 100 don't know where…

Where do we find your podcast? http://localhost/ shows really weird contents, I probably have the wrong URL.
Sometimes I'm wondering whether this is the future, or whether we (as an industry teaching the next generation) are taking shortcuts that will hurt us in the long run. Honest question. I don't have the answer or am…
A solution is to have somebody in each FE team with a "that's what the masses use" device. Screen-wise, CPU-wise, RAM-wise, network b/w wise. And let them use it as a primary dev device. Doesn't sound sexy, no.…
GP may have meant that this is useful outside of bisecting something in the main branch. For example, you may want to get your tree in one of the intermittent states and play around with it. Run some tests, try how some…

I've used quoted searches now and then in the past, as recently as last week or so, and it definitely did not work. There were no usable results, none of the results shown did contain the exact words. Is there a bug…
Hm? The nukes dropped in august 1945. Nazi Germany had long surrendered by then. In part because the Red Army had come all the way to Berlin.
