Lots of common main ingredients like potatoes, beets, cabbage, and sausages. It could also have a different reason, like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Former_eastern_territories_of_...

ed2k, nice! That reminds me of this superb piece of software: MLDonkey (https://github.com/ygrek/mldonkey), written in OCaml.

For me the most clear example (in English and other languages that borrowed from Latin) is "to move" and "mobile".

You seem to be confusing the words "Schmerzmittel" (analgesic, pain killer) and "Betäubungsmittel" (narcotic). Those two classes of substances are not the same.

It’s not, the BtmG literally means narcotics drugs act. https://www.bfarm.de/EN/Federal-Opium-Agency/Narcotic-drugs/... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcotic_Drugs_Act

Do Nabaztags qualify to be added? There seems to be a workaround to make them work again.

Well, it's more difficult. The original Volkswagen was designed by Ferdinand Porsche.

Thanks for clarifying! I did some own research and apparaently in those oral hearings, objectors were often tricked into contradicting themselves with quite absurd scenarios.

I don't have intentions to justify an injustice. I'm saying why should we try to make it even harder for a disadvantaged group? It does not help a single German man if women also have to comply to this law. Fixing women's rights on the other hand gives everybody the benefit of living in a society that is more fair. For me, that's a valuable goal.

Well, 2 wrongs make one right, don't they?! I wish we'd first fix women's rights and then extend their duties. What the OP does is just egoistically trying to make other groups also suffer.

What's a reason that is politically and not against one's conscience? I assumed that one's political beliefs would also manifest in conscience.

The cold war has been over for a very long time. The whole process was reformed in 1984 by removing the mandatory oral hearing. Sources say that acceptance rate was above 90% after 1995. That's not good enough (should be 100%), but not terrible either.

I'm not sure how credible it is, conscientious objection is literally in the German constitution: https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/englisch_gg/englisch_gg.h...

Why does Deutsche Bank pop up in every shady financial deal? Cum Ex, business with Russia, Epstein, some shady deals with his Wingman Trump, and many more. Billions paid in fines, penalties, and settlements. How rotten can an institution be?

Is this based on your experience or is it just an assumption? I only have anecdotes, but it does not reflect your claims, rather the exact opposite. A lot of the boilerplate code doesn’t need to be type annotated, but annotating the main business logic doesn’t take more time and is not more complicated, but instead type annotations help write code that is more clear, more obvious, and it adds some kind of documentation.

The HQ of Microsoft Germany is in Munich.

Edit: Compare to LiMux[1] and the rumors about some deal with MS
