I just wrote that it violates my rights. Fact is that under GDPR it is not I that has to defend my position when I don't want my data used for AI training. And Meta will not read thousands of forms. They just want to scare off people from filling out the form, is my believe.
does that have any off device capability? I see sending to url, etc, wondering if there is a preferred server app that makes office device backing up/displaying/etc automatic and easy.
I started practicing last summer and went on a few via ferratas in Switzerland and Italy. The hardest one was in the Dolomites and required climbing knowledge and upper body strength because there were no easy anchors.
The scariest one was in Switzerland, called Mürren where there's a 30m horizontal section with a 400m vertical drop with nothing to hold on to other than the steel cable and some metal inserts in the wall, see https://www.sac-cas.ch/processed/sa2020assetsprod/9/0/csm_15... .
Looks scary but horizontal sections of via ferratas are usually the safest part, because you’ll come tight to your leashes right away if you slip.
It’s the vertical sections, where you could free fall and pick up speed before your leash catches on the next anchor point, which can cause the worst injuries.
I can relate, as I started my career at 16, setting up a small ISP from scratch without any prior knowledge of computer networking and doing the work remotely, part-time since recently when the company was acquired by a larger ISP. They had about 2000 subscribers when they sold it.
Besides that, I've worked full time on Linux administration at a large scale and in the last years on cloud architecture. When starting university, my colleagues were all envious of me because I was working on interesting stuff and because I had a steady income, but I don't know if the sacrifice of not having a life during high-school was worth it.
Some advice to my younger self:
- enjoy your young, no-care-in-the-world years and experiment as much as possible outside work and jobs; this will come in handy later on because you will end up working with people
- try finding a bachelor and master that can deepen your knowledge on the subject; for various reasons I've picked telecom and now I regret not picking CS for my current day-to-day job. I made the right choice by picking a networking master's
- if in or near Europe and if you like traveling, search for Erasmus+ exchanges during high-school and university years
- there are lots of certifications that can give you insight on the industry you're on. For example, I've only learned about Cisco certifications years after working in the networking field. Why? One constraint was budget and I initially implemented everything using Linux and cheap switches.
- don't get hired full-time early (this I'm glad I didn't do), because there will be plenty of time to climb corporate ladders. A few of the university colleagues are now on a higher corporate level than me, but should I care?
TL;DR enjoy your young years and don't sweat it too much by working during university; you're way ahead of everyone else and will easily land a job when the time will come.
"and will easily land a job when the time will come."
Well, that's the thing. I don't want to leave out any opportunities, just because I was lazy in my young years. There are many insanely good people out there and I heard companies more look at years of experience and certifications, instead of public "achievements" like HackerOne, etc.
I would try to avoid this FOMO mindset, it leads to burnout/possibly depression in like 5-10 years. I would focus on a) finding out what problems you are most interested in working on and b) having some fun while you're young and don't worry about being "lazy" (you're obviously in no danger of that).
I think it's best when you're young to not be focused/specialized too soon, but cast a wide net - maybe find a couple of projects that you're interested in doing that are somewhat interdisciplinary. College is good for this as well. Good luck!
There are plenty of land borders that employ x-ray scanning, some of which I've been through are: entering Turkey from Bulgaria, entering Turkmenistan from Iran, entering Uzbekistan from Turkmenistan, entering Morocco from Mauritania etc.
It's not all Schengen and no controls out there..
As to why, probably to find hidden contraband or hidden CPUs :).
I've extensively used Osmand off-line during my overlanding trips, from Cape Town to Europe across west Africa and from Czechia to Mongolia. Why reinvent the wheel?
In my case, looking at a very similar set of requirements for a project yet to be started, a target audience that includes both Android and iOS and people who might be reluctant to install an app (but should have the option to "offlinify" the website they use, perfect match for PWA)
Last week, during a meeting, I found myself scribbling some notes in cursive some 20 years later since having last used it, the only way we have been thought to write in school in an Eastern European country. I didn't know it was possible for anyone to not understand cursive or to forget it, even if one wanted it. This is definitely a thing just in the US.
I have been writing in block letters because my writing is tidier this way and have self-taught myself to do it.
Maybe this way less entitled peoples will have a better chance at making it, a sort of culling of the weak and unwilling.
It's the lower case i, m, sh, t and p that all look similar in cursive. Here in print: и, м, ш, т, п (though t and p and t have little lines above them to differentiate them, and some people are taught to put a line under sh to distinguish it. At least it's like that in Serbian.
My boss writes English cursive like this. I'm always wondering, "Is that a 'uu', 'aa', 'wi', 'ler'…?", and et cetera because they all look almost exactly the same.
