You may have a misunderstanding of what the ECHR is. A party can make an application to the ECHR against a member state of the Council of Europe (not the same as the EU) that that member has breached an article of the agreed European Convention on Human Rights. They don't "go after" individuals.
Man, since when did you have to make an account to use this site? I've played it before and this definitely is a new addition. I just simply refuse to make accounts for every little game I spend 5 min playing on the internet.
It's been there for quite some time. I believe the street view API is really not cheap for them to use, and the accounts are there to enforce the time limitation.
I love Geoguessr but it has a distinct randomisation problem (certainly in the competitive pool) that it hasn't solved.
If you play regularly you'll begin to notice that around 1 in 10 cities are in fact Vienna.
I'm not sure how it chooses, I suspect it first picks a country, then picks a city.
Without weighting for population or other factors, you end up with a significant number of Taiwan, Singapore and Vienna, far more than their populations or areas should suggest.
> The instructions assume you have a whole PHP dev environment setup
How else would you expect to run a PHP-based application? WordPress also requires a PHP environment and database.
I wouldn't argue against Craft being more difficult to install than WordPress but I also wouldn't describe it as difficult (I'm a FE dev, no PHP wizard).
And I don't recall Craft every being marketed as a WordPress alternative - it's always been a "CMS for developers" (I think this may have been a tagline on their homepage at one point).
dev environment is the key word I assume. Wordpress is "upload to PHP-enabled webspace and run", many more modern things expect that you install them using composer etc pp and then deploy from there. (no clue if that's true of Craft or not, never used it)
It is owned by the government but generates all it's own funding via advertising, selling programming slots and selling content overseas (Film4, for example).
You don't mention if you speak any languages other than English?
Whilst you'll get by OK in any large city with just English, some places are better than others. For example, in my experience, Lisbon (and Portugal in general) has a much higher level of English than Barcelona.
Maybe language isn't a huge concern for you but you still have a level of bureaucracy and settling in moving to any new place.
> something changed in this regard about 15 years ago
Here in Europe, I think Michael Schumacher's ski accident in 2013 changed peoples' attitudes.
When I started skiing in the mid-to-late 2000s, there was maybe a 50/50 split of helmet and non-helmet wearers on the pistes. Since the mid-2010s, it's become extremely rare to encounter anyone not wearing a helmet.
I've been skiing in three different countries in Europe this month and could count on two hands how many people I've seen not wearing a helmet among thousands with.
> every commit I make is a good one that I would like to keep in the history
This is certainly not typical.
When working in a team, you may need to push something half-finished so that someone else can work on what they need to. Or testing something before refactoring.
For these scenarios, rebase is very handy for cleaning things up before merging.
Why can't the merged branch contain commits that don't compile? As long as it has a clean commit message, I don't see the issue. It's just part of the history. On that day you e.g. committed some broken prototype code so your teammate could improve it. So?
If I clean up something I only do it for new commits before they are ever pushed to remote. My rule is basically to never rewrite history, that someone else might already have checked out on their machine.
