The right wing party (actually a coalition of 2 right wing "mainstream" parties) was the most voted party but fell way short of a majority (they control 102 seats out of 230) and failed to get parliamentary support.

As I'm sure you know, VAT is paid by the customer and you're simply collecting it, it's never your money to begin with. And if you are selling to businesses, they can rebate all or part of it.

[Honest question] By doing that aren't you allowing any app that uses the Twilio API to open your mic/camera without permission?
You should try living a country with high inflation. People lookup exchange rates every single day.

Yes. As the GP stated, all data added/updated/deleted since last snapshot will be lost. If your data is that critical you can use AOF with "appendfsync always" which will fsync every write operation into a log that will replayed on startup (at a speed cost). Setting it to fsync every second (instead of always) is a good compromise.

I agree with you and I think all your points are valid but the GP specifically mentioned statically compiling dependencies, not using only what is already provided.

Something else that helps with Apple's way of doing things is their reasonably slow release cycle (when compared to most Linux distributions).
