    Haha I see. That’s exactly how it happens here in Portugal too, except we have more language choices (VBA, Pascal and C# that I recall).

    I wonder why this phenomenon happens 🙃

      Here in Mexico, CS careers only teach you Java, if you are lucky probably C in a few cases, mainly hardware focused fields such as electronics.

          yep. And mostly dependent on privative infrastructure. Services like institutional mail, hosting, office, communication, etc. are provided by Micro$ucks.

            Damn that’s really unfortunate. In uni’s CS department we run a lot of free stuff ourselves, such as email, ownCloud and even package repo mirrors for a bunch of stuff (CPAN, LDP, the kernel, and a handful of distros).

                  Yeah, not sure what’s up with that - but take the broken bit and open in a new window (at least desktop firefox here) and it shows the mp4 appropriately.

                  Which is funny, because it looks like a low-quality gif.

                    On mobile (on pwa) downloading the file yields me a currupt video lol. Will try on desktop in a bit.

      I’m guessing it’s to train to use commercial software for a potential job environment. That said, i haven’t touched a Microsoft officer product since the early aughts. Officer is an auto correct error, but i like it so it can stay.

        The “phenomenon” I was referring to was the amount of German FOSS devs 🙃
