Does it? The EU isn't a single country like the US - it's a partnership of 27 separate countries.

If one country in the UN adopted some new OS, we wouldn't expect every other country (incl the US) to adopt it too.

It's just the new term for "NPC" (like "My teacher is such an NPC"), meaning someone/something is bland or generic (like a non-playable character in a video game).

What do you mean? Are you confused by the iPhone 18 being better than the iPhone 17? Better specs

At the time women were (and still are) underdogs in STEM, so it's no surprise your professor would want to highlight that. For all the rest of were aware, she really was a successful health-tech founder

I'm a bit younger than you (started playing at ~17), but I attribute SQF in Arma 2 and Arma 3 being my gateway drug into SWE too :)

Fair enough!

So? That was 5-7 years ago. I haven't seen this before, so I appreciate it being posted :)
