Their argument is pretty much that you just move the problem to other places, which is true for pretty much any environmental policy. Emissions restrictions? Move the factory to Vietnam. It’s too expensive to dispose of toxic waste properly? China doesn’t care that much. Not allowed to use modern farming techniques? Grow it in Brazil. They don’t care.

It’s all very shortsighted.

That really depends on the language pair. Even a big language like Chinese has a lot of interesting stuff on github that never gets translated because the number of people can and are willing to translate isn’t that high.

I got tired of throwing away pens and decided to get a nice one. While researching what pen to get, I ended up reading about fountain pens and thought they were really cool, and also seemed like a good fit. My first pen was a TWSBI Eco, and I liked it, so I ended up making excuses to get this other pen or that other pen. Now I’m about ten years into being into fountain pens, and I’ve also taken up journaling, mostly because I really enjoy the tactile experience of writing now.
