Such people are sometimes called Grenzemensch (border person). They grow up speaking multiple languages and don’t even realize til they’re older that the languages are different. They just think you have to talk to Uncle Fritz one way and Grandma Mireille a different way.

There is a whole book about this, “Dogs Never Lie About Love”, by Jeffrey Masson.
There are 14 competing standards…
Jeez, we have surveillance hobbyists now.
I thought this old antirez “mythical 10x programmer” post was pretty good:
This was some years back but I think the multiple files were primarily because we took breaks in the interview and stopped the camera. I don’t remember if any parts hit the file size limits. I still have the files on a server someplace, so might check.
I’m old enough to remember when printers DIDN’T break. I’m sure lots of HP Laserjet II’s from the 1990s are still cranking out hundreds of pages per day today. Same thing with Okidata dot matrix printers from the era, for those who still want to use them. It was later when printers became crap.
I did the audio-only part with a separate audio recorder because the phone was full. The video is in a bunch of parts but I don’t remember if any are larger than 2GB. It is FAT32 so maybe they must be smaller. I remember the phone ran out of battery power after maybe an hour, and I plugged in a power bank (10000 mah) and that was enough for the rest of the session.
$3000, yowch, but I like the idea of a small-laptop sized screen that is pocket sized. It means being able to read or edit a reasonable amount of text. I don’t need the phone or camera in it for that matter. Actually how about just a foldable HDMI monitor that size, and I can run it from another phone or computer.
I shot a 4 hour interview on my 2016 Moto G4. The last hour or so was audio only because the phone ran out of internal storage (32GB) and I didn’t have an SD card in it. It has a slot though.
“the medium soda 40 cents cheaper than the large because it exists only to make the large seem like a better deal.”
“Fly first class if you can, third class if you must, but never fly second class”.
I dunno, maybe the diagnosis is fine but the companies that run it are sure to save copies. I can just see databreaches now, “5 million stolen dick picks uploaded to dark web”. Complete with labelling of which ones are diseased though, so that’s a help.
Maybe Trump could escape the US by hiding in a box disguised as “music equipment” (https://www.bbc.com/news/business-57760993). Then the USSS wouldn’t have to accompany him.
Can you verify with wireshark that the traffic is only going through your lan? I’m not hip enough for nginx but I used to have to run apache under gdb all the time to trace random errors from the server. That would be next, if the traffic is really local.
Don’t forget Algol-60. Per Tony Hoare, “Here is a language so far ahead of its time that it was not only an improvement on its predecessors but also on nearly all its successors.”
Back in my day, we only had ones and zeros, and sometimes we ran out of ones!!! (From old song, https://youtu.be/p1fBd7UbQPA?t=60 )
When you can speak and think in the new language without translating to your native language in your head, maybe? That can actually happen pretty fast. You don’t have to become anywhere near fluent.
