Carlos Sobera, a really great TV host in Spain, with the boom of sport betting websites and almost no regulations on the ads, he became the face of one of those websites with very aggressive tactics.
He also started to appear on ads for a payday loan company.
So he was promoting gambling and high interest small loans that are used by gambling adicts.
The radio alarm clock, couldn’t find the specific year only to narrow towards the late 70s.
My flat, the building was built around the beginning of the 70s.

Internet is the interconnected networks and WWW is the open system of interconnected pages that can be accessed through internet.
Before WWW you had online portals and BBS.
Its is more like saying that cars existed and were used before of the production of the Ford Model T.
Broken/buggy software usually is not developers/QA’s fault but management and clients.
Consulting want something that conforms exactly what is signed and as fast as possible, if there are later bugs that doesn’t invalidates what was agreed or new features take longer to introduce it means more money as maintenance/evolution contracts.
Clients often don’t see why they should pay extra and include extra time for better code. Also they prioritise stupid things like changing the font in a page over fixing a bug in the checkout page.
Usually the arguments I saw in favour of decriminalisation instead of legalisation are:
I’m in favour of legalisation and proper regulations (I think in professional porn industry actors/actresses are required to be tested periodically), however I also worry about the point 3.
Not the one you replied to.
Decriminalise (the proper word) is to stop prosecuting people, it still illegal but not criminal charges would be presented to people breaking the law, maybe civil fines at most.
Basically, the system turns a blind eye on the topic.
Legalise is to change the laws to not only no longer to be a crime, but also recognises that is legal to do it. Usually it involves regulations on the topic.
Take alcohol for example, let’s imagine if you have a store that sells alcohol and the police pays you a visit.
Scenario where is illegal to sell alcohol: The police arrests you and you could face prison.
Same scenario but selling alcohol is decriminalised: The police ignores the alcohol.
Same scenario with being legal to sell alcohol: Police asks four your license, checks that the bottles came through the proper channels (no counterfeit and product of dudose procedence that can pose a health risk) and questions people about if you sell to minors.
People are usually in favour of decriminalising prostitution rather than legalisation cause they want to be left alone. Legalisation would make it like any other job, requiring a permit, pay taxes and probably a license, however it would bring the same protections as any other business (for example, a sex workers could call the police without fear in case is assaulted by a client).
As other mentioned, lack of physical buttons.
Minimalistic interfaces in software:
Apps and websites copying the designs/colour scheme of popular ones. How many Slack looking websites are too much?
Copying IKEA furniture design, I don’t like most of IKEA designs and the sensation of making your personal space identical to thousands of other people personal spaces. I don’t have an issue with IKEA itself, my issue is that you try to find alternatives looking elsewhere and is the same thing, sometimes inspired, sometimes a clear copy, and most of the time even worse quality.
I’ve been looking for a wall shelf for almost a year and it seemed that every company, every store had the same ugly designs varying a little and with different prices. I’ve just bought one that it was the less ugly I could find, it was expensive and the materials quality is crap.
