Regarding location for the purpose of determining what language to render the app or website in: the article skips over the fact that users can configure their preferred and fallback languages in the browser. It's perfectly possible to access that in JavaScript and render the app or website accordingly. You don't need location information for that. In fact, it totally ignores the fact that some people live (or are visiting) in a region but don't necessarily speak the language. I find it super annoying when google presents me with suggestions or ads for local businesses when I'm on vacation.

Anything that needs to be configured with YAML, and Kubernetes in particular.

I mean I get the whole Infrastructure as Code hype (although I have never witnessed or heard of a situation where an entire cluster needed to be revived from scratch), but it should be very possible to make a gui that writes the YAML for you.

I don't want to memorize every possible setting and what it does and if someone makes a typo in the config (or in the white space, as it's YAML) everything is borked.

Call me old-fashioned but the graphical ui of something like octopus deploy was a thousand times more user friendly imho.

One guy from the Netherlands is cleaning a lot of that shit up though. Look up Boyan Slat. It's not only about stopping the pollution, but also about how to help cleaning it up.

I like human competition. I have my doubts about human team mates, because some of them are total noobs. I can barely tolerate class based teams, and I hate playing medic with a passion, because no one appreciates the medic.

Where I personally draw the line is effing building shit in FPS games..Who the hell ever thought that up? I'm running around shooting people, I don't want to erect a freaking shed with a staircase in the middle of nowhere so I can freak out and hide in it like a scared rat.

Oh and skins and outfits. Nothing gives me more pleasure than constantly killing off every player with the fanciest outfit using the oldest, most default skin in the game. I'm sure you think you look super fancy in your banana suit with sunglasses that were undoubtedly bought by your freaking mom, now eat my rocket and die.

Seriously though, isn't that exactly what a new Trump administration now can and probably will do?

Ehm, from where to where are you traveling exactly? Overseas can mean a lot of destinations depending on where you travel from.

Some call it winning aura, others call it luck.

One if the few newspapers left that criticized the Russian government. They operate from abroad now, and still publish online.

I think in general the u.s. journalists are not really critical. So much extreme things are being said and done and no one seems to be questioning how and why.

Where are all the real journalists at?

Would it not be relatively simple to create a browser add-on that warns when people visit one of the sites that are known to be under Moscows control?

A Fatboy Lamzac.

My wife really likes the beach, but I hate the sand and I find laying flat in a towel very uncomfortable.

This thing fits in my backpack and folds out to a very comfy air filled bed. It does lose some air over time, I expect to re-fill it every 2 hours or so, but filling it is just a matter of catching some air by moving the Lamzac around. It only takes a couple of seconds and doesn't require a pump or anything.
