I tend to agree with you. Something that subtitles even miss sometimes are the subtle jokes or nuances in the source language. Human dubs often miss those, and I doubt AI dubs will be any better, at least for the foreseeable future.

Short story, haters gonna hate ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Long story, see my comment to the commenter below you. :)

I can see why people might dislike them. Adds some bloat perhaps. But at the same time, I like the idea that my input is definitely sanitised since the ORM was written by people who know what they’re doing. That’s not to say it won’t have any vulnerabilities at all, but the chance of them existing is a lot lower than when I write the queries by hand. A lapse of judgement is all it takes. Even more relevant for beginning developers who might not be aware of such vulnerabilities existing.

Have a look at an ORM, if you are indeed executing plain SQL like I’m assuming from your comment. Sequelize might be nice to start with. What it does is create a layer between your application and your database. Using which, you can define the way a database object looks (like a class) and execute functions on that. For instance, if you’re creating a library, you could do book.update(), library.addBook(), etc. Since it adds a layer in between, it also helps you prevent common vulnerabilities such as SQL injection. This is because you aren’t writing the SQL queries in the first place. If you want to know more, let me know.

The bike racks on buses seems to be a North American thing. I've never seen them where I live (NL) or any of the countries I've been to in Europe.

Aluminium cans need a plastic lining to prevent corrosive drinks from eating through them and/or to prevent the aluminium from leeching into your drink.

Yeah, it's mostly the noise (and a little bit of the vibration) that makes you feel faster. Doesn't really happen when you drive the speed limit, which most of the time is 30 km/h for residential areas where it is common to have brick paving. Drive any faster, and you'll feel uncomfortable in many ways, which causes all but a select few daredevils to just slow down and keep everyone safer. :) Add some traffic calming in the mix, such as speed bumps, zig-zags, trees, raised crossings, etc., and you have a street where parents feel comfortable having their kids play football outside.

Those terms really aren’t interchangeable over here. At all. (NL). For the reasons I listed above. “Developer” (or “ontwikkelaar” in Dutch) is monkey get instructions, monkey do things. A software engineer would get a request for something, research and figure out the solution, then build it. Source: I’m a software engineer.

Depends on the implementation. Some indeed have it like you described, using some of the sensors used by ABS. others use tiny pressure sensors mounted to the inside bit of the valve of the tyre and those are much more accurate. They aren’t that expensive either. Each sensor is about €20 and lasts about 7 years on its battery before it has to be replaced. (On ours, battery is integrated, so not replaceable). If we had bought our car new, it would’ve cost us €15k-20k. Not the most expensive car. :)

That honestly explains American litigation culture a lot better than anything I’ve ever read or watched.

Give them fluorescent flags to hold while crossing the road for visibility. Wait a minute…

Hahaha. Don’t worry, we can sue companies or people in my country just fine as well. We just tend not to do it when, say, the hotdog is missing the sauce you asked for. ;)
