I'm not sure about official affiliation, but I think their policies are very close to Fidesz. So probably conservative, reactionary, etc...

Well Fidesz was in EPP as well before its expulsion, so I'm not sure how this new party will do l.

How to fix Korea's birthrate? Put girls in school earlier, controversial report argues ( koreajoongangdaily.joins.com )

Hmmm I heard of studies/prototyping/research to completely overhaul steel production in order to reduce the (gigantic) carbon footprint. It might be linked?

I was going to say: the office environment doesn't suck that much, or rather it's not aimed at people with advanced programing knowledge. Rather everyone else (which is probably the majority in the professional world).

I've learned a little bit of programming during my studies (mostly R) and I'm now working in a big company.

Power automate is so useful and nearly ALL parts of the office ecosystem is accessible to it. And it's possible to use it with very little coding knowledge.

It's now my main tool of work (with excel).

I'll have to look into that.

And I otherwise completely agree with you. I'm now only buying if cotton/linen/wool.
However hard to find clothes made 100% with these. :(
