because everyone is tired of work and life. I’ll do those things if I get some time off, like two years or so

Education is free and you get what you pay for.

I disagree. Take the technical university of Graz for instance. The work they accomplish regarding Cyber Security is quite amazing. Remember Meltdown and Spectre? Scientists from Graz were in key positions. Æpic Leak and SQUIP too.

What about Ferenc Krausz? He studied at the technical university in Vienna, and the team did some work in Vienna and they got the Nobel Prize this year.

It’s actually quite okay. Inflation is just high (above average), the prices of everyday life have been skyrocketing for months. Buying real estate has become impossible for most people. Our far-right party has been at the top of the polls for almost exactly a year. Nevertheless, it has to be said that the common Austrian is doing quite well. Public transport is relatively good (at least in the cities) an annual ticket for the whole of Austria costs only €1095 (price for a single state starts at €365). Nature is beautiful, food is good, education is free, social system works. So, could be worse.

We are? The world is really going downhill isn’t it?

It’s more like upfront paying a rented Lambo and the car dealer can order it back anytime without notice and reason. You know it’s rented although you paid a huge sum (often as high as a new Lambo) but it might have been the only way to get that specific model. You just hope they are a nice company and let you drive as long as possible. Also, you can’t resell it either ofc.

In German we say Raubkopie which translates to “robbery copy”. It sounds metal but linguistically puts it right next to actual robbery which is kinda insane.

I hope customer protection will eventually force new terms on the “you buy the rights to view a movie which can be revoked anytime without reason”. Like, given that most digital offers are priced nearly as high as their physical counterparts, there should be a law that the right must be given for at least 50 years or so.

So… too many cooks creating overly complicated meals that occasionally are admirably but more often then not are not worth the money. Also really hard to get into and make more efficient.

Bloated complex frontend with so gosh darn many tools, some specifically created for one certain meals but sometimes get used for other meals, more or less effective. Sometimes it’s already at the table, sometimes gets delivered with your meal.

Fancy looking APIs but you somehow have to know how to correctly talk to them and if you phrase something wrong, well good luck.

Simple, efficient, maybe not as sophisticated but if you get too many customers: just order a second one.
