Git was Made for the Linux kernel. The kernel is pretty much only text files. For the complete decentralisation git achieves an easy diffing and merging operations needs to be defined. It is working for what it was made.

Large files don't work with git, as it always stores the whole history on your drive.

For files that are large and not mergeable SVN works better and that is fine. You need constant online connectivity as a trade of though.

Some build tools for software being the option to define a dependency as a git path +commit or a local path. That works quite well but is in the end just a workaround.

It also is an option to ensure everyone has the same dev environment.

As cool and impressive as Qoi is, as long as I can't just send it to someone it's sadly not a replacement for PNG.

The Deutsche Post developed their own EV because there wasn't something suitable on the market. They have now switched to a a modified version of a Ford E Transit.

Matrix still has it's problems. All the meta data is still saved on every server permanently.

There is still space to improve from there.

I've seen a tablet for old people. The whole interaction is limited to NFC cards. Instead of having to open an app to start a video call, you put the Call Flipper card in a tray. On the other side I can send pictures which are then displayed for her.

My 95 grandma would never have been able to use a smartphone/tablet otherwise.

There is another Frankfurt. It's lies on the river Oder. The same word for other.

So there is Frankfurt Main and Frankfurt Other.

Honestly, when I open a new application I normally want to interact with it now. Always drove me nuts , when I opened a Powershell window in a folder and then had to click on it again.
