From the release notes: "ReadAll now allocates less intermediate memory"

After a couple of days in Vienna, my biggest annoyance is how pushy are breakfast/dinner places here about tipping. In one place the waiter literally asked me in my face “Why do you skip tipping”; then he asked to free up the table “in ten minutes” 🫡

Do you say French cheese, Italian luxury brands, Swiss watches didn’t create enough of moat to have a say in modern trades? Or those just aren’t resonating with the era, and are too focused on trying to stay relevant?
