Awesome, glad to hear you also had a similar experience. Yeah, I definitely underestimated the work required, and you just have to persist through till the end.
Our village (here in the USA) is pretty strict about the inspections. Each deck has to have 3 inspections (holes, framing, final).
If you build without a permit, the village will not allow you to sell the house (each sale has to have a village inspection) until you _tear down_ and redo the work with a permit.
So it's a lot more controlled than other places and they can enforce it by tying up the sale.
Thank you for the heads up, this might be a problem in the future that I hadn't realized.
The trees are a flowering pear and a flowering cherry, so I'm hoping not too much stuff falls on the deck. We had a crab apple tree before which is dying now, which is why we planted these trees 2 years ago. They're each supposed to grow up to 20 to 25 foot tall, with a 20 foot spread ...
I might have to figure out if I cut them down now and restart, or do it later when it becomes a problem and restart then ... I might just let them grow and figure out how to deal with the problems later ...
Seems like NSO is saying "We don't operate our software directly, so stop asking us to be accountable for its use". Kind of like we accept that gun manufacturers have no liability if their guns are used in crimes.
With these kinds of attacks becoming the new normal, security should be top of mind for everyone when buying a phone...
