I try to avoid depending on US mega-corporations.

Looking at it right now from Denmark. You must have some other problem.

Thanks! I can't stop reading.

Having worked with .Net for many years, I always had a bad feeling expanding my experience with a closed source, Windows-only platform (I liked the C# language and tooling, though). I kept looking for an open source, cross platform language with the same features and characteristics as .Net. .Net Standard and .Net Core being open source (MIT licenced), cross-platform, more performant than .Net Framework and Mono and being supported by free cross-platform tooling really gives me peace of mind in this regard.

Bricks are not just clay. Ask yourself: How does clay become bricks? Hint: it has a cost.

"Nordics" covers a pretty diverse area regarding climate and quality of local timber. Most houses in Denmark (southernmost part of "nordics") are built with bricks because wood has a tendency to rot in our climate. Also, we experience almost no earthquakes.

Counter example from Denmark, a European country: two weeks ago my son had a rash (no other symptoms), preventing me from dropping him off at daycare. I called the doctor at 8.30 a.m., had an appointment at the FREE doctor at 11. Problem solved in less than three hours.

Well, I made this one back in 2011. But please don't use it for selecting paint. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jenspeterv...
