I do wonder. I know of the opposite problem in other spheres (some areas in physics), where it is hard to run scientific programs under Windows, and some people resort to WSL, but many also just run Linux on the metal.

EDIT: With Mac, I do not know.

I tend to align my personal view largely with the German decision in Solange I/II; as long as the EU provides the same protection of fundamental rights as the national constitution (Grundgesetz in germany’s case), it supercedes review under national constitutional courts.

My point here was that they’re pushing a bill that clearly goes against fundamental rights recognized by national constitutions and EU law.

edit: I presume you have in mind the recent-ish controversy with Poland. I’ll agree with you that that one is counterproductive.

I mean, ideally, you shouldn’t be able to submit a bill that not only goes against all (I’d hope) national constitutions, but also violates fundamental rights as established by the European Court of Justice.

But oh well, let’s hope that we can stop this before it becomes law, and if it does, that its implementation gets delayed enough for a hopefully sane judiciary to strike this down.

I don’t see how your example is ‘funny’. That’s what you expect to get. -5² is -25. (-5)² = 25.

Glad I can count my own country, Lithuania, among the enlightened.
