Some time ago I developed a habit of writing out a menu for the upcoming week after my grocery run. Turned out pretty handy, as now I don't have to painfully try to remember almost every night what is it that I wanted to cook tomorrow. And my family members are happy as well, as this builds anticipation, and they can take part by suggesting things!
P.S. I bet you can read the word "Menu" even in Cyrillic :-)

Collective transit should be free.
And there should not be a whole bunch of profit-extracting corporations involved in it.
Then I would lose my job and would have a lot of time to go on collective transit!

Corporations can't market their products as superior using specs anymore, so you're left to figure out what's better, TurboVision Max or FluidView Pro, or DisplayHDR 500 (just actually saw that last one.)
(In this case it wasn't a C issue, but I bring it up because it seems incredibly irresponsible. The issue would have manifested in the same way in C♯ or other memory-safe languages.)
Have to say it's pretty weird to agree on service requirements with another party, and then go and run our services on Azure, which can't really give such specific guarantees.
Swedish collective transit means nothing to MS in terms of revenue, and we don't have any "special agreements."
And then MS can go and run 500000-line C programs as root on "our" servers, which grant remote root to anyone.
It's quite hard to account for stuff you didn't even install that's nonetheless there.
