> Proposed new law could see Swedish media prosecuted for espionage
> Swedish media outlets who uncover news which damages Sweden's relations abroad could be charged with spying, if a controversial law gets the go-ahead.
I'm pretty sure most news outlets would cave with the right pressure, with or without any new laws. On top of that is the fact that the department for foreign affairs is the department where the line between ministry and department is the thinest* - I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if, in such a scenario they'd be asked, especially by the US, to put a stop to something, they'd actually put (unofficial, undocumented) pressure on the entity or person in question.
* As opposed to most democracies ministerial rule is highly frowned upon in Sweden, and as a minister you can't issue official decrees that govern how the department itself interpret laws or conduct its business. Instead you (e.g. the parliament) change laws and society act accordingly.
I’m not the one you asked, but when I did WP work a few years ago I would solve it via a hook that was triggered on Jenkins deploy. The hook would always fire and listeners to that hook would execute migration scripts and similar callbacks. For example used it to migrate some tags to categories and vice versa.
I haven’t used Wordpress for a few years. But with WP Super Cache (1) we also always did pretty much that: On saving a post/page the static HTML would be written to a cache directory and be the default content served to visitors.
It’s the only parts of his person I consider such. All other ”accomplishments” are a-dime-a-dozen for the ultra-rich. Why would it for example be remarkable that he does not seem to understand the difference between gender and sex? Or why would it be remarkable that he has an inability to keep the timelines he has made for Tesla? Well, I suppose it is remarkable (and a bit funny) that he wanted to party with Epstein and was rebuffed. I don’t think it is remarkable that he is not a good PoE player, but should I?
You can always start small and over decades grow the area. After all that is how cities like Copenhagen and Amsterdam became bike friendly, not just a few years, but decades of work.
As a fellow European: we're prone to underestimating how uninhabitable bits of America are that nonetheless have people living in them. Those are port cities and therefore stable and temperate. You cannot green Arizona.
A non-grid tied charger cannot be depended on. You might get 40km worth of charge. You might also get zero if it's cloudy or the sun is behind a building.
You might say, oh this is fine, anything is better than nothing. But someone cheaper than you will think the same thing, and they will leave their car plugged into the charger all day long, because the cost of free surpasses everything. And it means that the charger will never be available.

Two things:
1. Parking itself doesn't have to be free, even if the energy was. (Though I don't expect the energy would ever be free in a case like this, because sending it out to the grid isn't that big a deal, and neither is micro-billing).
2. You seem to be imagining a single isolated parking space in a bigger parking area, whereas the article (if you can call it that, it's the size and depth of a tweet) is saying it is mandatory, at a quoted rate of:
80 or more spaces must install solar power generation facilities with a capacity of at least 100 kilowatts
If this is to be a general requirement across all parking spaces, they don't get hogged, because there's always more parking.
Even better if we could somehow trunk my space’s 3500W of panels with the ones covering the combustion-driven car next to me. And the empty space to my other side…
As opposed me paying indirectly and directly for all the subsidies for the petroleum industry?
> Global explicit subsidies for fossil fuels amounted to around $1.5 trillion in 2022. […] The $7 trillion figure includes the social and environmental costs of fossil fuels.
The article you linked literally talks about fuel subsidies in the UK aimed at reducing the final cost of electricity for households and its vulnerability to rising of fissile fuel prices.
In the UK. A country that was one of the first to transition to renewable energy sources and which currently has one of the most expensive electricity prices. And then, to these "subsidies", losses from "road incidents" are added as other subsidies for fossil fuels.
Sorry, this is very difficult to perceive as an argument, it is literally designed for degenerates without education, who have difficulty understanding the meaning of words put together in sentences, and who, for this reason, evaluate any text by the presence of already familiar slogans in it
Why do you think anybody was operating under the assumption that this was free? But keeping your car topped up now is hardly free either, especially lately, so the question is really about cost comparison. And that's before you get into any externality costs.
I rather like this. A represents major changes like a substantial redesign of the whole API, while B catches all other breaking changes. Tiny changes to the public API of a library may not be strictly backwards compatible, even if they don't affect most users of the package or require substantial work to address.
A problem with Semver is that a jump from 101.1.2 to 102.0.0 might be a trivial upgrade, and then the jump to 103.0.0 requires rewriting half your code. With two major version numbers, that would be 1.101.1.2 to 1.102.0.0 to 2.0.0.0. That makes the difference immediately clear, and lets library authors push a 1.103.0.0 release if they really need to.
In practice, with Semver, changes like this get reflected in the package name instead of the version number. (Like maybe you go from data-frames 101.1.2 to data-frames-2 1.0.0.) But there's no consistent convention for how this works, and it always felt awkward to me, especially if the intention is that everyone migrates to the new version of the API eventually.
You put into words why I appreciate SemVer so much! It is so much better at being deterministic and therefore allows me a greater confidence in version control.
The author of a library has no idea how tightly coupled my code is to theirs and should therefore only make yes/no answers to ”is this a breaking” change.
For example, when a large ORM library si use changed a small thing like ”no longer expose db tables for certain queries because not all db engines support it anyway” (ie moving a protected property to private) it required a two week effort to restructure the code base.

Not once have I seen this happen. Any specific examples?
(no idea but) I feel like changing the first number has a psychological issue, but the 2nd number feels more important than just "minor" sometimes. So may as well let the schema set the mind free?
