The Bafin (german banking regulator) seems to want to restrict that freedom. I have worked for a company where the business model is related to cash and the Bafin tries to find reasons to make it harder every couple of years, stating that the money could come from anywhere and because people are not fully KYCed (as it is only legally required for payments of 1000 EUR or more within 24h) there is no way to know. The business model is legal, but they can also make it harder to operate by putting more pressure and scrutiny to banks the company worked with.


It's not so much that only criminals use cash, it's more that crash makes it incredibly easy to evade taxes. The archetype is a cash-only restaurant: it's trivial to both launder money by claiming more sales than you actually made and to evade taxes by reporting fewer sales. This is why many countries have strict laws about paper trails for cash sales.


The number of hours of daylight remains the same, so it depends on the individual attitude towards what hour on the clock is an acceptable time to wake up and go to bed. It does become more difficult of course if you have obligations in the morning or evening based on the specific time on the clock.


When I was there during that time we got a book about the history and how IBM saw itself.


Oh yeah, there was a book too :)


Did it mention IBM's role in the holocaust?


Yes, a fact which my father (who is Jewish) was unaware of when he worked there in the 80s.


Fly did send an email linking to one of their articles on how to set it up for github maybe a few hours after the initial setup. I think it took me like 5 minutes to setup deploy on git push to main (or your deploy branch)


Customers are so used to things not working at times though that the bar is not that high.

So the quality we see would seem on average in line with expectations. Especially if things work most of the time and just fail to live up to expectations some of the time.


The great thing is that when it becomes part of the toolchain it will also be available for the latest version of go as it is released.

Right now veracode is stuck at go 1.17 support - maybe this will also help being up to date for such vendors more easily


Not sure it is recommended reading, but maybe to see what else you could do with Prolog besides interpreters, DSLs etc:

As part of a knowledge systems course we built a small game in (mostly) Prolog

That is not entirely true.

At least in Germany it depends on the state you are in. The teachers make their recommendation, not entirely based on your grades in school, but also based on your general approach to learning and understanding as they got to observe you for a few years. Depending on the German state, this recommendation is binding, but in some of the states the final decision is with your parents.
