That's not easier than not needing a VPN in the first place.

Piracy has never been easier or safer or faster than it is now
What?! It was way easier and safer in the era of Napster, edonkey and emule. Easy discoverability and companies didn't pay any attention yet. Since then it's a cat and mouse game.
For the service they offer (the hosting basically) I am actually willing to pay quite a bit. But what they typically ask for (about €15 for a single account) that's just not worth it, given that YouTube isn't the producer of the content they serve. Music might be a bit more complicated thanks to the fucking idiotic way how licensing around that works. Anyway: nothing of that excuses the excessive use of ads they serve nowadays.
As others said: VPN. Ukraine seems to work good currently, since the Credit Card address isn't validated. Cheaper countries like India or Turkey now check if the CC you use is from that country. That is a bit more complicated to pull off, so that wasn't worth it for me.
But why? If you don't need moving parts, don't use moving parts. Simplicity is king.
I got fed up with this shit and invested a bit of time into getting a working Premium Family plan through a cheap country (Ukraine is about $4 per month). I invited my whole family (parents included) so essentially 6 people have an ad-free YouTube now for less than $1 each (per month). I assume that's still less than what they have gotten by serving us a shit ton of ads. And I am rid of that cat and mouse game for a while.
I have a few projects where parts are Java, parts are Go and parts are C. Having that in a single workspace can be convenient.
If it was real, the walls would be glass and there would be spectators.
clion is also strictly separated.
IDEA isn't Java-only. Most of the other languages are available as plugins. IDEA is typically the go-to IDE for multilanguage projects.
If you run it in old-school CGI mode, no, because each request would spawn a new process. But that's nowhere near state-of-the-art. So typically you would still have a long-running process somewhere that could manage a connection pool. No idea if it does, though. Can't imagine that it wouldn't, however, since PHP would be slaughtered in benchmarks if there was no way to keep connections (or pools) open across requests.
Nah, I prefer to treat my math problems like climate change. With denial.
