It does so indirectly, otherwise, the joke of having 340 left wouldn't really work out.

The 4k was a monthly figure.

I mean, Lua is a pretty "interesting" choice for that application, but don't blame shitty coding practices and inexperienced coders on the language.

The gigantic loop could have been cleaned up with a table, registering handlers for the individual cases.

Lua is probably not the best choice for a web service, but it definitely has its applications.

Sure, rhythm, structure, even how the words are being printed on a page are used as poetic elements in modern poetry. Often, pure sound is used, meaningless, fictional words, decomposed elements of a given language, syllables.

But modern poetry has moved away from long standing, fixed rhyme schemes and meter. This, along with the use of anachrononistic language, gives the translation a dated feel. I'm aware of the age of the poem, but I don't feel the ultimate goal of a translation must always be perfect accuracy to the source material and its historical context. In fact, poetry often suffers from such endeavors.

But then you'd have no additional incentive to throw your perfectly fine 8 Pro in the trash and buy the 10.

I'm with you, the "improved" translation is too verbose, tries to hard, and assumes that all poetry has to rhyme.

Don't spread any misinformation. The price for the theoretical part is 25€.

If you take the test 128 times, that comes out to 3200€, a number very similar to the one mentioned in the article.

The article does not talk about the total cost of obtaining a driver's license.
