German, grammar is extremely regular, sometimes it sounds strange "baletttanzerin". Polish would be Perl5 - TIMTOWTDI grammar is extremely flexible, that even the experts have trouble understanding perfectly correct sentences. English would be js, seems regular but it is not. But that's just my (eastern) eurocentric perspective.

Recent events have shown that even simple google cypher may be effective. Even more effective is modifying your product to fit customers by NOT region locking your content, by not splitting it over multiple platforms. Using law to pretend that the global network does not exist is simply dumb and leads to piracy. DRM won't save backwards digital rights owners.

What is scary is that american gender stereotypes are becoming popular. In my school times I never heard "girls have problem with math", on the contrary, the majority of math and science teachers were women. Eastern Europe is unique because we never really had our own petty bourgeois being effectively colonized, so farmers became workers and workers became bankers. Someone really should write a monograph about Eastern European Cooperative Banking, it's quite amazing.

We got damn close to elimination in many areas.

Where?

Poland took some early actions but there are no covid free areas. Infections rates have plateaued but remain on a more or less constant levels. And people are getting upset. It will be really hard to keep them homes during the second wave... Same seems to be true for Czech Ostrava region.
