If they had that, they'd no longer be FOSS and instead "source available" and half the community will raise the pitch forks. Best FOSS licence to protect against this sort of thing is AGPL because it's toxic for corporations. But even that could be used in this case if they had the source on the same computer imo (IANAL though)

I suppose there's not a lot of communist leaders to choose from in general, but Kronstadt happened on Lenin's watch and it would be a bit disingenuous to pretend this was controversy free amongst the left and working classes.

Then why not just read the summary of the plot on Wikipedia? It's not about the nuances or the details, it's about actually taking the book versus knowing what the plot is about. The voice of the author matters, and if you're not getting that through a rewrite you're not getting the book as written.

Additionally, literature is one of the most effective ways we have of bettering our feel for a language, and expanding our comprehension and ability. This is even more true for second language acquisition.

There was a famous Hungarian interpreter in the 20th Century who claimed reading books was almost all she did to acquire languages. You just skip over the words you don't know, until after seeing it many times you get an "aha!" moment and work out what it means (and if it doesn't come up again then maybe it's just not that important?). She wrote about it in this book.

If you were to rewrite the text to remove the words completely you're depriving yourself from ever being able to improve your language, all the while sapping the colour and joy out from the words.

As for dyslexia, I don't have much experience with that but I do have with ADHD and getting distracted while reading, and have found audiobooks to be indispensable. I find them harder in foreign languages than my native, but that usually means I end up listening at 1x the speed rather than 2,5x the speed. I used to struggle getting through many books since leaving school until I could listen to them.

don't the coils glow slightly? I guess light would be mostly wasted energy, no?

ignorant vegan:

raping animals is wrong

you, an intellectual:

but animals do it! We'd have to kill all animals that do it, that'd be insane

enlightened ve-gone:

you're right, let's rape billions of animals

I am in Germany, how do I get a 35 hour work week without working part time? Every contact I've ever had has said 40 hours, not including breaks, with an expectation of overtime going up to 50 hours (legal maximum) unpaid.

Who said anything about streets? The article only mentions removing roads, which makes sense to me

ah but this is easy to deal with. Simply put the message in an ad campaign that

My personal recommendation is only one at a time though

You wouldn't do this if it weren't profitable. The tenant will end up paying for the furnishings and maintenance many times over in rent, and you will get an appreciating asset that you are gradually paying off the debt for. You're not getting paid for management, you're profiting from holding capital in a system designed to benefit those that have capital, and seeking rent for the ownership of that capital.

I wouldn't hold it against someone in this system we have if they end up buying a property to safeguard their money, but let's not pretend that landlords are not a parasitic relationship that reduce the amount of housing stock available for people to buy and act as a middle man between a tenant and a property management company.

Not picking on you, but I see people use "AI" instead of "UI" more and more these days and I wonder if it's part of the reason all startups suddenly feel like they have to introduce AI features — everyone keeps talking about how important it is after all
