Most of us needs glasses to see 20/20 but we are getting higher resolution displays with pixels too small to see. Remember when Apple touted its “Retna” display. On the iPhone 4? They are still upping the resolution.
The same thing with sound. We can detect the difference however it is on an unconscious level, it just feels more emersive and real.
I doubt it. I think people are moving away to avoid their friends and families. Having to see people who you once respected just kinda degrade down to political babble reposing lame o political posts just get annoying.
Or he may had reported it, and his manager told him to patch it up. But being no paperwork when the problem happened, the fingers got pointed down until there was no one left to point too.
In general this is quite true. In jobs where perfections is demanded, problem occur, because people are afraid to report mistakes. Often these mistakes could had happened to anyone, but that one guy was the one who did it that day. However they will get fired for making that mistake without learning from it and will need to fire the next guy. So being the problem isn't fixed, and you could get fired with one off action that lasted less then a second. If you messed up, you are not going to report the problem. you will probably just patch it up, and continue on.
I do a lot of Database work. Sometimes I mess up on my delete command. Now experience has taught me to have a plan for when I mess up. But I still mess up. And others that work with have done the same thing. Now I have some Jr developers on my team, they go into panic the first time that happens. Other then yelling at them, or giving them a hard time, I will work with them to recover as much data as possible and work on getting the data in place. After the experience they are less likely to make the same mistake, and they are better now knowing how to retrieve from backup and make preemptive backups beforehand. Now if they keep on messing up and deleting the data after going via the process over again. Then I will get tough on them. Making a mistake is fine, making the same mistake over and over again isn't, especially if there are things you can do to stop it.
So to read open access journals you will need to weed through many levels of ads? Or have that fact that you are reading an article on topic X to be recorded and sent to either a marking company to sell you "all the scientific equipment you need to help peer review and validate those results!" or send to the government to either flag you as a threat, or recruit you in military research in the topic.
Internet Content isn't free. We are paying for it in one way or another. People pay the content providers for a reason. It is a shame that micro-transactions never caught on where we could pay a site a fraction of a penny per visit, vs having to give up our privacy or having to deal with so many ads.
And no I don't need to head I Use Ad blockers and I don't have this problem bla.. bla. blaa.
There are plenty of ways to profit off of open access. You can do sell consulting services, sell physical distributions, offer support services. Or am I talking about open source software? Is there a difference between publications vs software?
Well Newtonian physics doesn't factor in long term strain on a material. Radiation, wear, friction. Simple physics has a everything in a uniformed mass frictionless ball in a perfect vacuum.
Now these are good for the laws of physics, and its values will apply in general. However there are billions of tiny forces following these same rules just at different directions that makes engineering for the values more complex, and often will require over engineering a product to deal with this degree of entropy.
I can calculate how much of a gap I need in my door so it will open, but I will always give it an extra millimeter more because the wood may expand during different humidity, the cut may not be perfectly straight, pressure on the beams may cause a little bit of bowing.
And how does hiding the URL make this any better or worse. Heck every call in Chrome could go to Google to log the activity, and heck cache the page info and display it back. What they show in the URL bar is what they want you to see.
As a developer, doing restful service calls. even though the info may not be useful for the normal user, It is handy for me the developer. I want to make sure I can load up different data elements, before the search screen is working, make sure security is properly working. Book marks to a url will load the right page when called again...
Is this better? I imagine this would take more of the form of the SSL verified sticker. If you were on Fox News then there would be some sort of identify icon around the URL which would let you know if you ever left the site to go to some third-party nonsense link.
Especially if you can point out that they are not throttling their own services such as the Direct TV app. The reason for Net Neutrality was at the time all the Media Companies were forming ISP's before that ISP were separate entities.
The curve trend comes and goes. So with the Old "GUI" Which was just text mode, Everything was flat because wasting a space would be impossible to work. Then these text modes went to 50 row displays text modes, this gave enough room for buttons to have boxes with beveled appearances to them. After a while when they switched to early GUI they really slowed the system down, so they didn't waste too much processing in making items rounded or beveled. Just because the extra processing power to draw them. Then as speed got up (386 days) Icon Bevels became popular, with some curving (normally just a pixel removed from the edge. Because the resolution is still low enough to see the difference, and no more then 2 pixels on the border for the bevels. Buttons have gotten fancier, and more curved up to (windows XP and 7) as screen resolutions have increases, and offloaded video processing made it possible to look nice. Then by windows 8 they went flat again. Why? well they were trying to make Windows 8 work on touch displays, with low resolution or small screens. So they got rid of the extra display. Now today with 4k displays and 2k display on devices as small a a phone, they can afford to get curvy again.
Now an interface that is fully efficient for using up space, is usually a mess. because it is just a wall of content, we like empty space to help separate ideas. But just as long as technology permits.
Other then saying "GO LOOK IT UP" could you provide sources which we can fact check and validate?
If you want higher order thinking skills, we should be given tools to help aid with this. vs. Trusting the first google result from some unknown media outlet.ru
Well I am not hearing economy 2.2 patch level 18. Amazon and Apple actually made their money by selling stuff for a profit. And not on speculation of future greatness, sure they make some money from speculation, but it is shown by solid sales numbers, and not fancy powerpoint demos.
Monopolies are wrong, but not necessarily evil. I haven't heard of many stories where Amazon is actively trying to kill its competition, they seem to just try to focus on making their product better.
Amazon just seems to competing against multiple competitors just because they seem to play a long term game over they years while their competitors are trying to win for that quarter.
Ok, even if you have a good reason or not, I don't see how your post is relevant. Are you implying that somehow you are better person, because you didn't buy something from Amazon? If so you should give your reasons to explain why, vs. that you just don't.
It is kinda stupid to make a statement where no one really knows what you mean. It is kinda like in college when some students make a silent protest. With no signs or anything else. It is just a bunch of people sitting quietly in the hallway.
I am wondering if this has to do with Brexit. Sure going to America isn't much better, but Americans get an other vote in 2 more years, to change direction. Brexit on the other hand is nearly as bad, but much more difficult to stop.
Tech firms in general are used to global collaboration, Brexit is making it more difficult for UK tech firms to do so.
Because it is something you can say without consequences for saying it. I can think someone is ugly, or just being a bad person. But I wouldn't say it to them to their face, or in a way they would track it back to me. Especially if I need to work with this person in the future. Because while I may be free to voice my ideas, having to work with a person who knows what I actually think of them, will just create extra friction with no benefit to me. My opinions isn't going to change a person, especially if I make them not trust or like me.
I had one 45 minute class in 6th grade, that stuck with me for about 30 years. It covered how advertising works, and their methods for getting your attention. Sure I still fall to the advertisements, but at least my logical mind knows it, and allows me to take a step back and avoid the impulse buy. But that was one a one off class, and I actually paid attention to it. Most people will trust or not trust an add just based on where it is shown and how expensive it is to show it. A TV Add is the most truthful. down to add placed on a Telephone Pole, or lamp post as the most sketchy.
Computers are expensive, seeing an Add on say Fox New or CNN Web site will seem just as legit as an Add on the TV.

Sony had a lot of format losses, But a lot of successful ones too. Even for the losses they made money from many of them.
I doubt it.

The technician wasn't fired for the drilling, but because it was suppose to be shipped to the Americans, and he placed the wrong label on it.
Or he may had reported it, and his manager told him to patch it up. But being no paperwork when the problem happened, the fingers got pointed down until there was no one left to point too.
