To be fair you wasn't far off with the path of looking for a monetary denomination.

... now welcome to "Drunk Droning": Japan outlaws flying drones while drunk - BBC News[^]
How much of a problem is it already that they need a law?

I thought "drunk droning" took place in karaoke bars.

Karaoke should get you a year in jail as well, but that's another story.

Thats odd, I know from people who have lived there for a couple of years there are odd (to Western eyes at least) customs for instance if you run someone down in a car you give them Lime Jelly (?) as a peace offering... I would have guessed most drunken activity would be done in VR overthere. Obviously not...

We've only recently started doing the same in the West, with face-to-face chats between victims and aggressors.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

It's amazing to see the size of the software. It's just 2.9 MB. But the capabilities are awesome.
I have no clue how this is possible. Maybe the whole thing is written in C/Win32 API ?
Or the other posibility is, the OS is already providing all the functionalities needed for an RDP s/w. And this App is just working as a proxy on top it. On any case, 2.9 MB feels like a miracle.

I often find myself wondering the opposite...
Why the heck does a simple application that does close to nothing need 50 MB of free space?
Especially phone apps are bad, although I guess it's mostly images that take up the space.
WhatsApp, for example, takes up 58 MB of free space and what does it do, really?
It enables you to create an account, login, make a phone call, set some settings and get your contacts, messages and media.
Most of the work is done on web servers (like retrieving messages) and on your phone (like storing media).
You'd think a few MB or even KB should suffice...

You know Adobe Acrobat reader used to go above 150MB, even in the good old days.
Nobody knew why a doc-reader should get this big.
And yes Whatsapp is a big bloat. I would expect that to be around 7MB. May be the extra 50MB is all about the pile of pipes that is used to steal your data and transport to different parts of the universe. Mark Z accepts currencies of any galaxy/universe.

Tomorrow, we start the rewrite of our flagship web app with the MVC5 project template I created.
I must admit to a bit of apprehensiveness, and even trepidation. I'm sure there are some things I didn't cover (yet) in the template, but for the most part, I estimate that I've cut six months off the time it will take to do the rewrite, and most of the work (in the app) will be nothing more than a lift-and-shift evolution. The only real diff in terms of content is that we're changing over from Telerik KendoUI (jquery library, circa 2012) code to the MVC version of that jquery library (2019R2). The only javascript we'll have to write is the client-side interaction stuff, and even that will be mostly lift/shift.
So, it's time to shutup and nut-up.
