Might be a German thing. For us, they are all "Klammern" and we call them either round (rund), angular (eckig) or curved (geschweift).

As a computational physicist, I appreciate operator overloading IF used properly.
Example of a good use: + for matrix addition
Example of a bad use: left shift operator << as a pipe
I still don't understand who's in the C++ committee that they would choose this garbage over a function

I used to buy everything from Roccat, but they got acquired by Turtle Beach (which is an American company)

You do know that all the other countries have the same issues you just mentioned, and there, the numbers are going down rather than up.

Edit: I guess they've been going up in Europe after COVID as well.

It's not really surprising that built-in drives are faster than external ones. There's a reason the PS5 installs physical games in the internal SSD. Obviously, switch cartridges are much faster than Blu-rays, but they are still constrained.

It's just unfortunate that you can't install physical games onto the internal SSD on the switch. Maybe developers could use a trick of a patch that installs performance-critical parts on internal storage?

Tbf, no first party games use keycards.

It definitely depends on what you want to do. For systems programming, HPC, embedded etc, Go is not an alternative to Rust. For webdev, I do get it, Go is much simpler.

Nope, your cornea might fall out. At least I haven't heard of exploding eyeballs

CXL stands for cornea cross-linking, so you have done it already. Then nevermind what I said. Good luck with your struggles in the future!

My brother has it. I'm German, and he got an experimental treatment called crosslinking some years ago. They stabilize the cornea using a laser, and since then, he doesn't need contact lenses anymore, but glasses suffice. Nowadays, it's apparently proven enough that even the public health insurance pays for it. Now, by the price of the contact lenses you mentioned, I presume you're American, and it might be incredibly expensive, but you could still do a bit of research about it.

You're not perhaps talking about keratoconus?

In German, we have "Nachts ist es kälter als draußen", which means "at night, it's colder than outside"
