Haven’t updated my medal collection, yet. :-)

Please accept my Gold Medal for this comment!

Not to forget that around 70% of the revenues cone from a single, non-disclosed, customer. My wild guess: it’s Google…

EDIT: And they just significantly reduced their expenditures for Software Development…

Time for the famous BigMac-Index!!!

I don’t know the details or have any more information, but there is a background as to reporting suicides in Germany.

Usually, it is consensus between the German news outlets not to report suicides, unless it has been committed by a person of interest, usually a celebrity. This is not a law or otherwise enforced, but a common understanding of the outlets amongst each other, so there will be no promotion of suicide. Here is a source (in German, unfortunately, explaining the reasoning: https://www.deutschlandfunk.de/sagen-meinen-warum-medien-nicht-ueber-selbstmord-schreiben-100.html)

To me, this seems to be a plausible reason for the vague language, but again, I don’t know.

Exactly what I felt, too!!!

I personally liked the PAI approach from the Mi Band where you get points for various activities, depending on the heart rate during the activity. You loose the points after a week - motivating you to continue and also the points are harder to get the better you get at the activity, because of the lower heart rate. I know, it’s all smoke and mirrors, but I I liked that approach for the same reasons you mentioned.

I … have no idea. Really.

German here. No, we don’t do that here. (Exceptions: Football World Cup and weird dudes on camp sites or allotment gardens. Usually a sign to avoid the area.) Interestingly, the fascists don’t show the German flag, but the one from the Germany before the current one…

Not a lawyer here, but from my naive understanding: HELL YEAH! I mean, it only works from Europe, but every company has to nominate a contract for GDPR inquiries. Once they received that inquiry, there is a mandated deadline. If they fail to comply, the data protection authority can fine a portion of their revenues (not profits). Please take my info with a grain of salt as I haven’t verified them, but that is how I understand our system.
