    @greg_harvey@tooting.ch How foreign somethings seem. `bc -l` has been my calculator for as long as I can remember I&#39;ve not even aliased the `-l` bit. `calc` offers completion to `ipcalc` and `oocalc`

    Now Deutsche Bahn we know time and dates are difficult. But really. Trains might be delayed, but they are still arriving in the time zone of the country they are in. No point in outputting the time string in UTC to the user (for machines ok maybe).

    &quot;We need to choose. Some things you can perfectly well let machines do, but then they must be driven by people, not the other way round. &quot;We have made reporting litter easier with an app. It works well, but we didn&#39;t stop to think that the residents of Oud-Zuid make reports more than those in North, so we more often go and clean in Zuid.

    @GeeBee I had to write a plugin for unknown wordpress sites. Making the output configurable by themes (many filters I recall) hurt my brain. Not sure many folk then actually configured the output (properly) afterward either.

    It&amp;#39;s not like heavily upfront funded corporations haven&amp;#39;t been known to be unreliable in the past. When the crunch comes capital wants to be paid. And these particular corporations have already shown themselves not to be the most consistently ethical. I&amp;#39;m sure there were reasons till a year ago we were pushing for things like more Open Source, and lower resource usage. What were they again?

    RE: https://en.osm.town/@harry_wood/116562324497918231 So are the (Local Authority) Custodians of the address data able to license it? Shouldn&amp;#39;t it be Open Data?
