I won't be surprised if the next step is to acquire CI/CD tools.

That's a fallacy; people care about the planet precisely because of children. I don't care about the planet for its own sake; I care because of the humans who inhabit it and their future lives.

Also, humanity spent 100,000 years without flying around the globe, and I doubt they were all living hermit martyr lives.

It may be a burdensome process, but very simple to understand. Every modernization of the process has major drawbacks.

– Electronic voting machines cannot be verified by just any voter, and the vote count is not transparent.

– Remote voting (even paper-based) does not guarantee freedom of choice: it cannot be ensured that the person is not under pressure at home, or even that it is truly that person who is voting.

- Voting alone in a private booth ensures that no one can verify who a person voted for. It is therefore difficult to buy votes, since it is impossible to confirm that a person followed any instructions.

The fact that any voter can verify and ensure that everything is conducted properly, without having to trust a third party, is essential to guaranteeing the integrity of the vote.

For me it's the contrast between the absolute tone-deaf messages of PR author and the patience, maturity and guidance in maintainers' messages.

- a slow-loading app isn’t just an annoyance. It’s a liability.

- The real performance story isn’t splitting hairs over 3ms differences, it’s the massive gap between next-gen and React/Angular

- The difference [...] isn’t academic. It’s the difference between an app that feels professional and one that makes our users look bad in front of clients.

- This isn’t a todo list with hardcoded arrays. It’s a real app with database persistence.

- This isn’t just an inconvenience. It’s technofeudalism.

- “We only know React” isn’t a technical constraint, it’s a learning investment decision.

- The real difficulty isn’t learning curve, it’s creating a engineering culture.

- This isn’t some toy todo list. It’s a solid mid-complexity app with real database persistence using SQLite.

- The App Store isn’t a marketplace, it’s a fiefdom.

  I asked a few students to read aloud the titles of some essays they’d submitted that morning.  
  For homework, I had asked them to use AI to propose a topic for the midterm essay. Most students had reported that the AI-generated essay topics were fine, even good. Some students said that they liked the AI’s topic more than their own human-generated topics. But the students hadn’t compared notes: only I had seen every single AI topic.  
  Here are some of the essay topics I had them read aloud:

  Navigating the Digital Age: How Technology Shapes Our Social Lives, Learning, and Well-Being  
  Navigating the Digital Age: A Personal Reflection on Technology  
  Navigating the Digital Age: A Personal and Peer Perspective on Technology’s Role in Our Lives  
  Navigating Connection: An Exploration of Personal Relationships with Technology  
  From Connection to Disconnection: How Technology Shapes Our Social Lives  
  From Connection to Distraction: How Technology Shapes Our Social and Academic Lives  
  From Connection to Distraction: Navigating a Love-Hate Relationship with Technology  
  Between Connection and Distraction: Navigating the Role of Technology in Our Lives  

  I expected them to laugh, but they sat in silence. When they did finally speak, I am happy to say that it bothered them. They didn’t like hearing how their AI-generated submissions, in which they’d clearly felt some personal stake, amounted to a big bowl of bland, flavorless word salad.

In the end it's not about making encryption technically impossible but illegal, and if you use it you'll be prosecuted.

I can read the code, I can understand how it works but I cannot know why you decided to tackle this issue a certain way.
