They're definitely defined differently between some countries. Japanese cup sizes are different to US ones

I don't use Facebook but was searching to see if anyone had uploaded a photo I no longer had a copy of from high school. It's only been 20-something years, but the number of obituaries I ran across was surprising. We're all in our early 40s from a small school and the percentage who died seemed high. A couple in war, but medical issues, drugs, and most of all, car crashed.

Well, there's more than just cats, but true. Wolves, dogs, monkeys, and just about anything else could be traipsing about.

To generalize the answer a bit, if for no other goal, than make the goal to move to a country that better aligns with your beliefs and that you feel rewards you properly for your work. Make incremental steps to achieving that (what exactly the list looks like depends upon the person's current state and where they want to go) and make marking each one off a goal and motivation.

That I'm an atheist, probably. Living on the opposite side of the world is a close second.

I know a number of Roman and medieval European tiles have been found. I'm sure there's more around the world because cats gonna cat.

Always has been. This is where the whole "Dark Ages" idea comes from, IIRC: people further on in time wanting to separate themselves as special and more advanced.

I would unironically watch something called 'Ancient Shitposting' that focused on old graffiti and pisstakes. It would still be more relevant to history than most of what is on channels with History in the name these days.

Because of decisions that Blizzard under Kotick made, both in terms of products but also how they treated their customers, employees, and fans, I haven't given them a cent of my money nor playtime. Maybe someday I'll be convinced to come back to them. Bethesda's basically there as well for Fallout76 leading up to its release and after. Take2 and Gearbox as well.

I grew up with and around them but they're generally not a thing here in Japan. I'm trying to compost all my organics and such anyway and most things can go into compost.

If you've never used Eclipse, which I assume it was referencing, it does feel old, clunky, and ugly out-of-the-box (to me at least). I tried to use IntelliJ wherever possible, but a previous company had a project that really didn't like to run from it but would with a very specific setup in Eclipse (I don't recall any details now more than 10 years later).

There is a fair bit of boilerplate and bloat.

I don't remember UI stuff being so bad, but most of what I worked with was old Swing/AWT stuff. I did have to use JavaFX (I think it was?) once and remember something about it being frustrating, but it was for some existing thing I had to modify.

I don't mind Java so much, but it's certainly not my favorite language.

I don't know how one gets a nullPointer when doing a hello world, though. I'm guessing this is embellishment or mashing together something later with their initial printing of hello since I think you'd come up with some other error in that process to getting something to print before nullPointer.

It was literally in the last couple of weeks that I first came across this. I thought it just meant 'a person living in a country in which isn't their home country' regardless of origin, etc. The only thing I thought of it is that it wasn't necessarily permanent whereas immigrant to me had permanence. It's wild that, to me, it seems to have come out of nowhere.
