StreetComplete asks about things other than street data as well. For example, I get queries about operating hours of businesses.

> It is the goal of every business to maximise profits. As a business, it is your responsibility to price your products in a way that will yield the most profit.

This is how the article starts, and it might be somewhat off-topic, but I disagree. Plenty of businesses (at least privately held ones) have the goal of simply making enough for the owners to get by. Not to optimize for the absolute maximum. And why should they be responsible to do so?

This is off-topic, but I use the Firefox extension Foxy Gestures. When I draw a gesture on the featured website, a pop-up shows the gesture I'm drawing.

I have never seen that before. Is that some JS/CSS trickery? Or a bug in the extension?

Does that correlation hold if you look at let's say the top 20 popular languages?

I'm pretty sure that to upload your code to GitHub, you have to agree to their terms of service, which potentially give them all sorts of rights to your code. This creates a special relationship between you and GitHub that is separate from the license you assign to your project.

I think so, yeah. Although orpheus is also all right.

Do yourself the favor of joining Red and download your music in flac or mp3 made from high-quality sources instead of YouTube. The interview is not hard to pass if you prepare for it.

Isn't VSCodium built from the same source code as VSCode? Excluding a few proprietary things Microsoft puts into the official binaries.

I really like the UI! I use Firefox with Sidebery and the top tab bar hidden via userChrome.css, which is kind of a hassle. Zen supports that kind of layout out of the box.

I'm very happy to see a new modern browser not based on Chromium. Will definitely test drive it to see if it's worth switching to.

Are you implying there used to be honesty in marketing?
