Does this deprecate TTLS records? I've only just begun to generate those

Instead of saying you're autistic, say you have autism. What you are is a human being, most likely. Having autism is just one of your traits.

TL;DR Autism is what you've got, not who you are.

"Disorders"?!

What's this, "person of color" instead of "black" or N*, that's all cool and agreeable, but then how on earth is "disorder" still okay? Bull.

Having used KDE 2, 3, skipped 4, and now 5, it's the most polished desktop environment I can think of. OSX is too weird and Windows is a hodgepodge of "GUI trend of the day". Not that either of those matter, since they're not FLOSS.

The way I'd do this, is by separating concerns into separate tables. If you have a table with (id, name) and a table with (id, parent_id), any doc with a parent will have a corresponding record in the second table.

What's a good alternative? Preferably not in the US, preferably not biased towards (or against) any political agenda.

Why is it a list and not a table?

Seems like a pretty simple case of CREATE TABLE ethics ( id INT PRIMARY KEY, rule TEXT );

Software tends to get thrown away after a few years. Nothing I've written as a professional programmer has survived the test of time. No regrets, though. Why would I carry the burden of self importance to even be bothered about this? Do we really need to cast our work in stone? It's just work and you probably got paid a bunch. Nothing wrong with that.

My advice would be to find whatever motivates you in your life. What makes you happy? Challenge yourself and everything you've got.

Linux always boots perfectly fine with TPM hardware support disabled, even when there actually is such a chip built in.

The real showstopper would be if "SecureBoot" would be enforced. I hope it never actually happens for personal computers. Everything else in the consumer electronics business is pretty much a lost cause already.

PHP: My own, so not known by anyone else ;)

I made it because I don't like all the existing frameworks. That said, it uses Laminas Diactoros because not using that would be to reinvent the wheel.
