going full cloud is not an option for anything critical
That's a narrow view of the economics and data flows for businesses. Based on what you just said I would say for many businesses going full cloud would be the ONLY option.
But yes if you're idea of cloud includes only having your files and services that you need not on your computer then I fully agree with your assessment.
Wait? Are they undocumented migrants or refugees? Pick a point and stick with it. In general they are all good points, but when you conflate multiple of them you post ceases making sense.
Actually, there are over 140 countries who are obligated by law to allow entry for certain reasons. For example; The states that signed the 1951 Convention relating to the Status of Refugees and the 1967 Protocol.
This! Can we get a +6 informative that makes text auto bold and move to the top of Slashdot and automatically gets read over the speaker at high volume?
The most idiotic thing I see, is that a large portion of the people complaining that they shouldn't need to let refugees in were actually around when their countries signed on to these conventions.
Because they did not sell the photo in question, it is unlikely that the latter amount would have been nonzero
Not true. Even without a photographer's rate schedule the benefit to the company can be estimated as can the expense they would have had to go through to obtain a similar image.
There have been countless cases with damages awarded where non-professional photographers had their pictures used in a commercial setting without sale of the picture being involved. As much as I hate copyright law, the judge did a real WTF this time round.
No, just your analysis of it. Also posting the data out of context is intentional dishonesty. 30 seconds on Google will tell you exactly why and how GISS data was adjusted. Now go on and refute the actual adjustment itself. We're all waiting to hear your big conspiracy on an adjustment that was completely independent of time itself or temperature measured at the the time, and everything to do with the source of the measurement itself.
Other, of course, than cynical opportunism, cashing-in on the mood, as it were, and demographic shifts of the audience?
Or maybe they've just gotten with the times and realised sexism isn't as acceptable as it once was?
Also, have people started using the expression Nurse Who yet?
Why would they? Last time I was in hospital my nurse was male and my doctor was female. I also used to dive with a doctor who was maleish,... I do wonder if she got her surgery yet I haven't seen her in 2 years.

That's not universal. The RX550 and RX560 are still lingering around the high point. The RX 570, 580 and VEGA based cards have fallen. The same nonuniversality applies to NVIDIA. The 1050 through 1070s have dropped but are not back at MSRP levels. The 1070ti and 1080 dropped quite significantly.
There's some decent trends on this page: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/tr... and it seems mostly in line with general prices at newegg. There are plenty of places you can pick up various models back at MSRP without any "specials".
What kind of rendering are you talking about? The slowest part of any video production is usually compression, and that task isn't embarrasingly parallel and doesn't lend itself to video card speedups.
They don't "rip design decisions to shreds". They analyze a product and help the manufacturer reduce their costs and build a better product.
You must be in marketing.
Show's your and Tesla's software background
You're reading into stuff that isn't there. I don't have a software background. Never have, hopefully never will. I'm a hardware guy who plays with very big metal toys (much bigger than cars).
Well you're wrong. Most of us who aren't in Musk's cult do feel that things like fit and finish are important in a $50,000 car.
I can tell by all the people not ordering them. And all the reviews that I've read. Oh wait no I meant... wait I had something about this... I'll just stick with "Well YOU'RE WRONG!"
Munro did another program talking about the Model 3's where he pointed out other design decisions by Tesla that just make no sense.
Cool story, still selling like hot cakes, still drives like a bat outta hell. No one cares.
The M3 isn't worth $50k, it isn't worth $35k.
And yet people pay it. Basic economics says you're wrong. Again. There's a common trend here.
It's questionable if Tesla is even going to make a profit off them at $50k which means it's only a matter of time before they start reaaaaly dropping in quality.
Actually there's nothing questionable about it. It's a purely economics game that has been analysed to death. But I am sure you're right random person on the internet (who somehow posts a lot of wrong stuff) and you know better than all those analysts.
No, investors are part of the market which follows the free market on cost benefit analysis which has a high return thanks to the government policy which chose wind.
Or are you suggesting that investors subtract subsidies from their calculation before investing and don't get the best ROI because they insist governments shouldn't be involved? In which case I have a bridge to sell you.
Supporting and financing an illegal business. Please don't tell me the US has all sorts of ridiculous laws but that's NOT illegal.
Not sure, but I bet you that if they have a law like that it would be incredibly grey. Do you go to every advertiser and ask them for their complete set of documents showing their license to operate? That is assuming Bob even approached a radio station rather than some 3rd party advertising service that put his advert on a few different services some of which happen to be illegal.
That's the problem with these laws. "What do you mean I financed an illegal enterprise? The guy selling me a hifi from his van said it was second hand and was taking it to cash converters! How was I to know!"
It doesn't change human nature. Even when the definitions are given studies have shown that there will be inherent bias in the results for all sorts of reasons unrelated to the content.
E.g. service staff example (just one example of bias): You can give the scale. You can follow it religiously and without empathy. The next person will come along and think, "Yes the service was horrible but I don't want the poor guy to lose his job, I'll give him a 5".
That's the kind of thinking that goes on both conciously and subconciously in everyone's head when they fill out multipoint scale. Except for robots, robots feel nothing, which is a problem in itself when you expect a lot of emapthetic humans to fill out a result and suddenly someone sticks to the defined scale, THEY become the bias in your otherwise corrected results.
Incredibly. Just becaues you found a logical example of how it works doesn't mean anyone actually does it like that. There's been many studies into biases and tendencies in reviewing systems, how they relate to psychology, how they relate to the reviewer's gender, how they relate to the impact of what they are reviewing.
Let's talk about 5 point scales:
Mobile apps: 5 = It works. 4 = It works but I want a feature it doesn't have. 3 = I clicked by accident. 2 = I clicked by accident. 1 = Anything from it formatted the phone and sent my dickpicks to my grandma, to there was a misspelling in the man page, to I don't like the colour of the okay button.
Service Staff: 5 = Did their job 4 = Should be fired. 3 = Should be fired. 2 = Should be fired. 1 = You guys are idiots why did you ever hire a person like this in the first place.
On a 5 point scale in many review systems the defaults tend to the extremes with any deviation from the default moving to the other extreme. People in general don't cope with a 5 point or even a 3 point scale. It is an incredibly useless way of getting generic feedback without moderating that feedback with additional data.
You must have read the manual. Don't do that. What you're supposed to do is assume nothing has changed from the sysvinit days, copy and paste everything, not learn how to setup a unit file, and then complain when it all goes to shit.
The reason for the emergency, an external data drive wasn't present.
So admin did something incredibly stupid requiring the automounting of an external device at boot time and is upset that his misconfiguration caused his system to boot. Got it.
No, DRM is a superset that involves copy protection as part of it. They are not different. One is a component of the other. CDs definitely do have DRM, just that the DRM they have is horribly broken and was rendered ineffective shortly after release.

No. What we need more than ever is punctuation!
2024 hours in the year average: 52 weeks in a year, -15 public holidays not falling on a weekend, - 15 mandatory vacation days = 46 weeks.
The average person worked 44 hours in a week. So no, not within the standard.

Should we also outlaw video games which are also wasting energy in huge amounts ?
But are they? They are providing entertainment for many. What is bitcoin providing? Won't someone think of the drug dealers?
What's wrong with video rendering?
What kind of rendering are you talking about? The slowest part of any video production is usually compression, and that task isn't embarrasingly parallel and doesn't lend itself to video card speedups.
Why write an exploit for a system with no users?
Don't you know? It saves time!
Really? Because the only pages that seem to auto-download anything do so with "Your download will begin shortly" followed by an advert.
Oooh yippe! 1976. So it basically predates the fundamentals of Process Safety.
They don't "rip design decisions to shreds". They analyze a product and help the manufacturer reduce their costs and build a better product.

How hard is it to rate on a 5 point scale?
Incredibly. Just becaues you found a logical example of how it works doesn't mean anyone actually does it like that.

By victim you mean the person who made the child pornography. :-)
Yeah I get what you're saying, but the law doesn't understand.
SystemD hasn't broken on me yet
You must have read the manual. Don't do that. What you're supposed to do is assume nothing has changed from the sysvinit days, copy and paste everything, not learn how to setup a unit file, and then complain when it all goes to shit.

the chance of it failing so that you have no licence plate
That sounds like a plus.
