It took me too long to realize this wasn’t real. Git does have some awkward commands I’m not even surprised anymore.


That's pedantic. That's exactly what they wrote: due to licensing issues.

"You" here is a generic pronoun, not "you, reader"


Not only that, but beyond the licensing issues it's really not supported by glibc itself because glibc will dlopen NSS and iconv, which link to libc, which leads to glibc being dynamically linked anyway except now you have two copies of it, which can play havoc on shared resources (like standard streams).

It's an issue from a licensing point of view, but it's also a rather poor idea from a technical point of view.

on glibc's part.


> Sweden is the first one that comes to mind

Is it? Norway has been topping all the livability charts for at least the past decade so that's the one I've always considered "the best in the world." Then probably the Netherlands, if you stretch the definition of Nordic.


It's more that Sweden is the biggest/most populous, and has the most internationally-recognizable brands (IKEA, Volvo, H&M, Husqvarna, Absolut Vodka, Spotify, Klarna, etc)


Netherlands? Are you perhaps thinking of Denmark?


I'm thinking of "Not Just Bikes" on YouTube, so definitely the Netherlands. I rarely hear about Denmark. Finland even less so.


Finland is thought to house the happiest people in the world which I always found an interesting contrast to their more grim and hardened reputation!

In 2023 too, no less than six years in a row!

Eh. It’s not really much of a difference. At least it’s not called Queue or Quinoa


Finally some RAM competition to Electron apps!


Fixed:

You don't have to use it. I don't understand this obsession to have to do something because it's trendy.


It is not even trendy. FB literally killed Pages before and now is actively killing IG. Many creators just don't really care about any new Meta products anymore.

It seems that Apple has gotten better at online services, but MobileMe was not that long ago.

I'd call it Wave


Horse heads are my go-to.
