Benedict Cumberbatch's mailed-in performance as the disinterested wyrm is a bit disappointing and far from the fearsome foe found in the original book.
That might sound a little harsh, but the truth is that this movie is one of those that a lot of people should be able to recognize as a mailed-in attempt at something that could have loosely been called an appealing story had the writer decided to go back and, with their eyes open, find the glaring inaccuracies and inconsistencies that they’d included in the story.

Inflected forms:
Senses:
gloss: (of a development environment) Primarily involving a graphical user interface rather than a text-based one.
pos: adj
tags: not-comparable
examples: Some firms are turning to new, "low-code" application platforms that accelerate app delivery by dramatically reducing the amount of hand-coding required.
Whereas no-code software aims at creating software applications entirely without writing any code in a programming language, low-code development takes a slightly relaxed perspective and is directed towards simplifying software development with less coding effort.
gloss: (of an application) Programmed using a low-code development environment.
pos: adj
tags: not-comparable
examples: Low-code applications can hence accumulate high complexity, bugs and other forms technical debt just as badly or even worse than traditional applications. However, the languages created for low-code platforms commonly lack features that would assist in their understanding and maintenance, such as the ability or organize them into files and modules, or even to add detailed comments attached to individual code elements.
gloss: The practice of developing applications via a low-code development environment.
pos: noun

examples: However, the distinction between no-code and low-code is not always evident, and this extends to the low-code and no-code platforms themselves. Many technology product analysts regard no-code to be a subset of the low-code market because even the most powerful platforms need some amount of coding throughout the application development and deployment process.

The image of Cobbett as “Peter Porcupine,” the indefatigable advocate of Great Britain, emerged only slowly. […] Although he believed that his greatest achievement in the 1790s was to have “untied the tongue of British attachment” in America, his remarkable political influence rested on another achievement: his revival of a robust and deeply rooted tradition of American anti-Gallicanism.
For one, anti-French sentiment was far more changeable and circumscribed than has generally been presumed […]. Insofar as anti-Gallicanism became a feature of colonial life, it was part of a much more complex cultural politics.
gloss: Opposition to Gallicanism.
