Insurance is always up to a certain amount. In the Netherlands the government-provided insurance insures up to €100k per account holder.

People would have a problem if they already have €120k tied up in a contract, such as a house purchase.

It would be a big problem if the lost money was intended for their pension.

Just wanted to let you know that the qbix.com website navigation doesn't work, at least for me on mobile Firefox. Clicks sometimes open the submenu, but usually not. Clicks on the submenu don't work (they always seem go to the content in the background) and clicks on the main menu items usually don't work either.

Apparently *.run.app domains are using something called Google Hosted, and that is how a Google 404 page came up.

The connection to the update server must be secured, but it might not be using SSL the way connections to websites normally do. Perhaps the local install has not been updated in a while, so neither have the details about the server certificate. Then the local install might not accept the update server's certificate because the expected details don't match.

I have occasionally seen this type of construction when doing integrations.

It isn't at all, in my opinion. Consider the introduction of the module system, for example.

Some libraries moved out of the core language.

One reason is that someone else's platform means you don't have full control over presentation and discoverability.

Also, at some point in their existence each platform start to decline. People move to the next platform and lose some of their readers. A few years later the same thing happens again, and readership is reduced again.

Personally I have had a lot of fun adding random bits to my website such as small tools, some explorations on creative expression with CSS and things like that.

Maybe it is coming now instead of earlier not because of a clear choice, but because to get features in to the project people need to spend their own free time on creating them.

Thank you Klemens Nanni and others for taking the time.

I don't understand why it is implied that Java is slow. A running JVM is not slow.

A "monstrosity" as you put it could have been written in any language.

I do think that you are overthinking it.

That mouse is not shaped to the right hand. There is no reason to assign significance to it in my opinion.
