The problem is that you spent so much time concentrating on the cryptic symbols, that you didn't pay attention to the handful of readable Latin letters in your code line. Subtle hint: the handful would need to grow a…
...and gets more and more dependant on neighbouring countries to produce the electricity Portugal consumes each time the intermittent renewable are down. ...and presents a carbon intensity over 4 time higher than…

It's like when we, Gen-X ers, were repeating bad stuff about COBOL without having seen a single line of it. Then I saw a real COBOL program and... well... it was even worse than what I had imagined :-)
> Then they hand it to you and expect a miracle in 5 mins. Sorry this is the first time I have every seen something like this it may take me a few mins to figure out what is wrong before I can even begin to fix it. Oh…
> Fighting for a foreign nation and/or mercenaries is illegal in itself Nope. It depends on countries (and mood of the year). Some countries allow to become mercenaries and forbid voluntary fighting for a foreign…
No, the President in France has little power. 1. He can call for new elections of the Assembly (not of the Senate) ; 2. He names the Prime Minister and chooses to accept or not the government the Prime Minister then…
A French judge managed to sentence some guy for not giving to the police the access codes to his phone. He had no phone...
You always get only a really tiny window of information, selected by your medias, about foreign countries. (It doesn't matter which receiving country you are in, it is a general principle, not just about the USA). In…
> Easy discovery of new communities I never understood this point. Reddit provides zero discoverability.
> Honestly, I can't believe it that here it is 2023(!!), and there still exist sites that can't figure out reliable cross-browser video playback. Ah! I was telling myself the same thing last month (how is it possible in…
It's funny that this pops up now, as I discovered the existence of the game(s) only 2 weeks ago, and made a rough computer version for myself. A good site that presents many possible rule variants and their balance:…
Even back then, I guarantee that small villages like where I grew up didn't have any shop. Some never did, actually. The 'centre village' of the neighbouring municipality valiantly sported: one church, its presbytery,…
> Carrefour is one of the largest retailers on earth utilizing a big box model. In the 70s already, the one near Toulouse was for some time perhaps the largest superstore in the world (at least the largest in Europe).
> Every city, no matter the size, feels alive. People live there. They don’t sleep in one area then go live in another. Average commute time is the same in France as it is in the USA. (Of course, in both cases, it…
> Can't really remember one for this year. One not massive in numbers, but massive as impact was concerned: oil refineries, only 2 months ago. It impacted the whole country for weeks. As the Gilets Jaunes happening…

I haven't given a look at this language in a few years; is it still so that there are no enums, and that operators must be surrounded by spaces?
> about 2 acres of farmland That's huge; I haven't seen anything like that, even in the deep country where I grew up, where people (farmers) almost didn't buy anything but grew and processed most of their stuff. Their…
You don't need a community effort or astonishingly vast land to grow potatoes :-) What I mean by that is that the choice of stuff you grow matters. Lettuce, peppers (and one might add tomatoes) won't feed you much…
The European 'we' who like using public transit and bike is unfortunately a small minority. In France, if you add those two modes, you barely get over 10-12% of the number of moves people make. The number of cars has…
Religion is the only reason and purpose which motivate their minimal use of technology. There are many different sorts of Amish, each with different rules (in the tradition of protestant sects which split on a regular…
I have always considered it a social network, 'the social network for young programmers' as I called it, which turned free software into social networking (portfolio for first employment(s), etc.), and that's why I…
