Trump has captured half of the US legislature and has a huge group of people who are willing to die for him in battle (and have done so when trying to take over the Capitol, only increasing their fervour).

Of course this is something totalitarians strive for.

That’s why the EU is starting to raise tolls on Chinese PV systems.

how conflicts between ministers and prime ministers from coalitions are resolved?

Usually by ending the coalition (or threatening the move). This leads to expedited elections, which happens a lot in Austria, although usually due to different circumstances like corruption scandals. Alternatively, a different government can be formed, but that is usually very unlikely (though it happened in 2019 when the president appointed a party-neutral interim government that was accepted by the parliament).

The problem Nehammer (the current head of government) is now facing is that regular elections are coming up in September anyways, so it doesn’t really matter whether he quits the coalition. Quitting is actually a bad idea, because then he wouldn’t go into the election as the government party, which can lead to a worse outcome.

She consulted some constitutional experts before doing it.

They have the same rules as all the other democratic countries. The only difference is that they had someone take over the democratic process.

Unlike totalitarian regimes, democracy does not have strong protections against disbanding itself, just look at Hungary, Russia or Turkey. So, in the long run democracy is just a temporary fad that will fade away eventually.

No, buy from Turkey, which gets Russian oil and rebadges it as Turkish.

There was a passenger airliner that was shot out of the sky by the USSR because the pilots failed at navigating.

Is there anybody left on X except far-right loners and Russian bots?

Its owner is part of the misinformation network.

IIRC the complaint was that he wasn’t harsh enough on his colleagues who said some things that could be interpreted as anti-semitic.

My experience has been that good documentation is mostly something done if somebody gets paid for the work. People working on stuff in their spare time just don’t care enough to document their project.

Only if they have a 100% tax rate, which I doubt.

I just checked again, and apparently they finally added some documentation since I last checked. The section about the macro stuff just used to say “look at the examples”.

clap and bevy are big offenders there. It’s really hard to learn how to use them due to this.

OP is talking about a different kind of skill issue than the article. The article is about skill issues in writing Rust code, while OP is about skill issues in choosing the right technology for the right task.

Not picking Rust for code that has to be prototyped quickly and iterated a lot is kinda obvious. The solution would be to use Rust for the core engine where the requirements are clear and something else (lua? Python?) for the gameplay code. Even the engine the author wants to switch to does the same with with the divide between C++ and C#.

Bevy’s ECS is tied up with Rust’s trait system, therefore it’s impossible to use a different language.

Bevy has added runtime-defined systems and components to enable scripting integration in recent updates.

Would be interesting what would happen when the EU regulates that browsers aren’t allowed to render non-standards compliant pages at all in order to allow new engine development just based on the spec, rather than having to implement all error fallbacks as well.

The EU is just bureaucratic enough that they could do that without realizing what a tornado of poo that would cause.

Austria has that (with the catchy name Verein zur Selbstkontrolle der österreichischen Presse – Österreichischer Presserat), doesn’t help one bit, except in extreme cases.

It’s one of the economic pillars of the city.
