Serbian is typically in Cyrillic - but everyone knows/uses both Cyrillic and Latin. First year of elementary school you learn reading/writing in Cyrillic, second year it's Latin, and in third you get first foreign language (e.g. German, French, English... My parents had Russian, but both my 11 years older sister and me had German as first foreign language). And in 5th year of elementary school it's another foreign language (for sister and me it was English). Street signs - especially highway/cities are in both scripts.
Croatian is Latin only - and IIRC only people born before ~1980 or so were taught Cyrillic in school (unless they are "Serbians from Croatia"). Street signs are only in Latin, but in past I think they had kind of dual script signs like in Serbia.
Bosnian ... Ugh well Serbian/Orthodox-Christian majority parts (Republika Srpska) have signs only in Cyrillic. Non Serbian parts (so Croatian and Muslim/Bošnjak parts) have signs only in Latin.
So I guess BiH (Bosnia & Herzegovina) might be the only valid use case for Serbo-Croatian?
Montenegrin used to be exactly the same as Serbian (so Cyrillic, and different dialect/accent and very few actually different words). But they also started inventing new words to distinguish themselves from Serbian - so I'm not really sure which version of Wikipedia they would default to.
BTW all the words can be transliterated between Latin and Cyrillic with dummy search/replace. For example "đ" = "ђ" = "dj" (if you don't have "fancier" version of "d" on your Latin typewriter/keyboard)
Meanwhile (Former Yugoslav Republic OF /and now known as just Northern/) Macedonia was always Cyrillic (except like in Kosovo there's many Albanian speaking people there, and they use mostly Latin, though I can't say for sure about Christian Orthodox minority in Albania).
And despite being rather different than Serbian/Croatian (let's not stir up flames by saying mix of Serbo-Croatian and Bulgarian). When I run into random Macedonian people - they literally say "Two countries (Serbia and Macedonia), but one nation".
PS. I'm originally from Belgrade/Serbia; Wife is 1990s refugee from Croatia; When we were born it was one bigger Socialist Federative Republic of Yugoslavia; We're living in The Netherlands; Our kids have Serbian and Croatian citizenship; Friends and Family are scattered across that former/bigger Yugoslavia (mostly Serbia and Croatia) and some live in the rest of Europe.
I was 18-20 when I had appendix removed. And it was actually higher/closer to ribcage than on average.
My parents knew about "you can't properly raise your right leg" home test.
While ER folks - well first ones in the evening were crap and basically sent me home to see if it will pass.
Then in the morning (yeah it didn't pass, and I don't think I've slept much because it felt like a bad tootache in your stomach) other ER doctors checked:
- 1 Celsius or more higher temperature rectally compared to armpit
- push fingers at general area of appendix on your stomach hurts like any other pain (say bad stomach, having been hit ...etc) there would hurt, releasing the pressure slowly is fine and gradually reduces the pain, while quick/snap release of pressed spot felt like you've just been stabbed with a knife (well OK how one would imagine that feels).
And within minutes they accepted me into hospital and I was operated within few hours.
And I guess jump is doing similar things to muscles and tissues since it's quick/explosive type of movement.
Also - and it's been ~20 years so memory is fuzzy - I think doctor explained/mentioned exponentially larger pain on quick release of press compared to slow pressing and even just holding same pressure for longer is general sign of inflammation, not just apendix.
Having started with Linux using Gentoo - after some attempted excursions into Debian/Ubuntu, then at work CentOS and even few months of having to use Slackware on servers until I finally convinced my boss that his T50-something Thinkpad will do same or better on Gentoo ... (and he won't need to manually chase up dependencies).
And even thought already for years compiling most of the things doesn't take that long. Just for not having to compile bunch of packages where I'm using standard/default config - I've tried Sabayon (back when it was still almost kind of Gentoo), went back to Gentoo ...
That sounds like any (semi)good car in the last 10-20 years.
Like 5-6 years old Skoda Octavia (which are generally lasting so long YouTube nickname for them is "Good 'ol miles"). Until one evening you park it just fine in front of your house. And next morning power steering is no longer working.
Official VAG dealer/repair shop folks were like "Well you know it's electric stuff like light-bulb - one day it works, and next day you want to turn it on and it goes poof". Except this light bulb is angle sensor, power/hydraulics and T beam "sealed" all-in-one, and costs 1-2K Eur (which was ~10% of whole cars worth).
Unlike cost saving/outsourcing combinations like Renault cars or Grundig TVs being made in Turkey. Or other PR releases mentioning keywords like "synergy" (say Microchip/Atmel comes to mind).
Well I don't know about Liebherr excavators and such machinery. But Liebherr refrigerators and freezers are amongst the best there are.
After having various Bosch machines - 4 years ago we got Miele clothes washer and separate drier - with wifi et al.
For all the good engineering put into them... I was at a loss at official way to stack two of them. Which is to buy official "add-on" that goes in between the washer (suggested to be at the bottom) and drier (suggested to be above). Attaching that add-on means drilling/screwing into top plate of the machine that's below, with kit including small (superglue size) silicone to seal those new holes.
If we follow that project car metaphor - https://www.calculate-linux.org/ is project car where you can get all parts pre-machined (already compiled) and you can still customize bits and pieces, or even whole thing.
That said - it's default config/profile and use flags are such that it's rare some package needs to be compiled.
While I guess in these cases governments don't really worry about enumeration aka https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_tank_problem - it's still often a security risk that means you usually try to avoid it.
Even when internally you have auto-incremental ID - you can provide a non-sequential public ID (e.g. at least use SkipJack/Skip32 of that incremental value).
The point of co-working space combo with "WFH/Remote" is that you potentially get benefits of both WFH/Remote and Office.
Being in co-working space/office gives you some social interaction, less chance teenage neighbor is blasting latest trance tunes on really loud speakers on one side and another neighbor is tearing down/renovating his apartment with loads of jack-hammer action, perhaps you just don't have enough desk space at home, maybe it's easier to switch between work and personal life by having some (short) commute ...etc. Some of those might be all the time - and some might be every now and then.
Meanwhile not being in same "central" office with colleagues give you more independence/autonomy. Beyond having less interruptions (e.g: it's easier to avoid/ignore a chat/email than a physical shoulder poke), some people prefer (or actually perform better) when interactions are less "real time" and more async, or perhaps they just concentrate better at 4am or 10pm ...etc.
And in general idea is that co-working offices don't need to be as big/crowded nor as far as big company offices.
Though I'm not sure how much last part applies to places like Hong Kong (many people, relatively short distances)
