Finally. I am not fond of code-to-diagram tools and wanted to try Mermaid, as it seems like one of the better diagramming tools around. Will definitely give it a try now.

>However, after the war started, I lost all interest in reading anything Russian. I know it's irrational, but these lost their luster instantly.

Many share the same sentiment, and some do that more strongly than others. Interestingly, it never had that effect on me, however, though I cannot speak Russian, except read, but my vocabulary is extremely limited. I think it's important to distinguish between current events and the culture, literature, and art that spans centuries.

Never in my life have I been interested in any sponsor mentioned in a YouTube video. It's sad to see creators having to include these humiliation rituals in their videos just to keep their channels alive. To me, such tools are just a noise filter.

Depends on a producer, I guess. Where I'm from, same amount of decaffeinated coffee by the same producer is around 42% more expensive.

Cool, the performance is significantly better than the previous time. Or is it a different kind of simulation?

This seems like a meaningless trivialization, because you completely remove the meaning and purpose of the thing. All the code you write gets converted into machine code. Why not write machine code then? If you write it long enough it'll seem normal.

I have a similar opinion. What puts me off about the language is it's horrendously ugly syntax and toxic, cult-like community (maybe these types are a minority, but they are awfully loud).

I don't know why you are so annoyed, but I know for a fact that average non-technical person is incapable of sharing files over Bluetooth on their own, and this probability of incapacity increases with age.

>Bluetooth file transfer is not accessible enough for non-technical people?

It's incredibly difficult. Do you have any idea how "non-technical" these "non-technical" people are? I know people that use phone every day to make calls as send messages, take photos, browse Facebook, read emails and they could not send an email with a file attachment to save their life. Asking that kind of person to:

1. Enable Bluetooth and make device discoverable

2. Enable Bluetooth on another device.

3. Pair the devices.

4. Find an option to send the file

5. Accept the file in another device.

6. Wait for the file transfer to finish.

7 (bonus). File transfer failed for some reason and you have to start again.

It's simply impossible.

I don't consider anyone "less" for having any kind of medical intervention. If it required a pacemaker, I would agree without a second though, absolutely.
