  • Frontend is what is being actually interacted with by the intended user.

    In a car the frontend is:

    • Steering wheel
    • Gear stick
    • Wheels
    • Seats
    • Pedals
    • Lamps
    • Ports for pouring in oil, windscreen washer, fuel
    • All the different buttons on the dashboard and elsewhere
    • Doors
    • Keyholes

    In a car the backend is:

    • Engine
    • Gearbox
    • Fuel pump
    • Cabling
    • The actual lightbulbs inside the lamps
    • Mechanism for reacting to key being turned in the lock

    Etc.

    Frontend is what is what is being physically used, backend is what actually makes all of this function. Of course anyone can also go poke at the backend, but without some very deep knowledge, you’re bound to break something. Better let the backend specialists (regarding cars: a mechanic) handle whatever counts as backend if they need to be touched.

    In a physical shop the frontend is anything the customer interacts with, while backend includes for example the workers’ pause room, the intermediate storage for goods brought to the store by lorries, etc.







  • I wonder if this is of any help… But sometime parents have names planned before the child is born, and they might have had thought of two. Have you asked them if you had a female name before your birth?

    In any case… Damn, you’ve got style! And sorry I cannot be useful with directly suggesting names. My mother tongue is not English, so all names I’d intuitively come up with would be all weird for an English-speaker.














  • why you elected to make a statement that seemed to limit itself to a binary of fascist/"tankies”.

    Because that is the subject we are talking about. We are talking about to what extent tankies are similar to fascists.

    Also, I do not think temporarily holding a percent of an ethnicity in an internment camp is enough to call something a genocide.

    Temporarily, not. But anything that forces people to have to lose their national or thnic identity is genocide. We are not talking about any temporary internment camps here. (I’m not sure if temporary internment camps based on ethnicity have ever even existed…)

    to provide relevant comparison of similar examples that were not fascist nor “tankies”.

    If they do not support using a country’s military against its own population nor are fascists, how are they relevant to this discussion that is intentionally limited to those two groups?

    First of all……how is the US not a democratic country?

    Uh… Read the news maybe? WTF kind of question is this? How is it a democratic country?

    Just off the top of my head Canada has a brutal history of suppressing their native inhabitants that endures to the modern age. Both france and the UK also had interment camps during ww2.

    No idea of what’s been going on in Canada. POW camps don’t really count. Nor any camps where the goal is not the removal of an ethnicity or nationality from from a region.
    The question about Israel’s democracy is an interesting one that I need to ponded more!
