I’m gonna make a list and hit the library
I’m about to sound like the ignorant American I am, so I apologize in advance! We’re looking at a trip to Germany, and possibly Prague, and we’ve noticed that a lot of the hotel names are French and a couple hotels that aren’t named in French have replied to comments with things like “Bonjour! etc etc” What’s up...

Or would you need more time to dissolve the minerals?...
I mean like awareness that, just under the surface, there are deep explorations waiting for the right time and place to emerge; things you’ve set aside or placed on the back burner but will tackle eventually/many you already have tackled....

Why are so many mobile browsers at least 100, if not 200 megabytes in size? Even Firefox Focus which is supposed to be small and, you know, focussed is 85MB big....
I’ve had a certain debate a few times where you might say we argue over the “semantics” of the meat industry....
And what features and/or technologies you’d rather not see in a web browser...

Seriously, been working as a software developer for 9 years now and never passed a single coding test....
