It seems reasonable for each partner to continue to use their original family name if they want to, even if it's only the husband's name on the marriage certificate.

If you go down the legally hyphenated name path, after a few generations, this could potentially devolve to family names like: Jones-Smith - Smythe-Johns - Longbottom-Allcock - Junior III (etc).

Australian Marmite is from New Zealand and is not quite the same as British.

I once had someone do an emergency stop in front of me for no apparent reason in the fast lane of a not very busy motorway. I barely managed to stop in time from high speed.

This creates an immense chilling effect on all climate protests in Germany.

Unfortunately, the chilling effect needs to be applied to the climate, not the protests.

Let's not forget this is all driven by people with the right skillset, in the right place at the right time, who are hell-bent on making vast amounts of money.

The "visionary technological change" is a secondary justification.

This is what the 3rd party access to API was really all about.

When API access was allowed , all reddit content was effectively free: They needed to ban 3rd party apps so they could sell the accumulated content. I expect using content to train AI also factors into it.
