If I had cared one iota about Corbyn, after all the spectacularly failed predictions he has on record, then perhaps I would go to those lengths.
But no, I make no such assertions. I draw conclusions based on the content of the paper. If those are disliked by the author of the paper, then said author should reconsider the method used when writing papers.
And if they are disliked by you, then perhaps you should read more papers.
What Corby actually sells is unknown, since the predictions of his I have actually seen are so vague as to be utterly useless - and even then they are usually incorrect. I have yet to see anything supporting the claim that he actually provides accurate predictions. Anything except sales pitches, that is.
If he's providing money laundering, plausible deniability or whatever else, I do not know. But if he provides predictions you will need to actually provide evidence they work, not just say "but he makes a living so they must work!".
That "paper" contains no reference to Corbyn's wins by gambling, merely a claim. There are no other mentions of this gambling anywhere. Considering the quality of the rest of the paper, I will conclude it was made up or overheard in a pub.
Unlimited PTO is common in Europe. I have no idea how you failed to negotiate it here. I prefer not having it, since unlimited PTO also means no overtime compensation, which I will otherwise get instead.
Which is quite interesting, given my experience with a Thinkpad Carbon X1 4th gen. I get around 10 hours on that running Windows, and can squeeze that to almost an extra hour if I really push hard on running nothing but Scrivener - but that requires Windows Update to behave, which it usually doesn't, pushing battery life below 9 hours.
Running Linux, with Scrivener in Wine, I get 12-14 hours on it without even trying.
In both cases WiFi is on, screen brightness at near minimum, and I'm using it pretty much constantly.
Dragonball is still in use and is 68K based. It is also more likely to run a Linux OS than the Blackfin or M32R which usually run an RTOS.
Also, a lot of enthusiast systems run 68K CPU's, but I know of no enthusiast systems at all based around Blackfin or M32R. And since enthusiasts are likely to be contributing to Linux, support works itself out. Therefore support for some obsolete CPU's is dropped, while support for other obsolete CPU's remain.
What you are failing to understand about audio resolution is that, while the human ear cannot, by definition, hear ultrasonic frequencies directly, they interact both with other signals in the same ranges and with those well within the range of human hearing to produce complex, lower-order harmonics and transients that humans can very definitely hear.
And what you are failing to understand is that the end result of those effects are - sounds below 20 kHz which get recorded and sampled, so are included in the CDA.
So the source material is of FAR higher audio quality than the end product that consumers hear.
Resolution != quality. The main reason to use high resolution for the recording and mastering process is to have excess headroom, allowing for capture of unexpected lulls or transients and being able to adjust those to the final dynamic range.
No album release in the history of commercial music has had a dynamic range in excess of 40 dB, which means that there is no extra quality at all to gain by going from 16 bits to anything else in final reproduction.
Human ears can not hear about 20 kHz (give or take a few kHz), but even more important, no commercial music is ever done with instruments designed to produce sound at above 20 kHz, meaning there is no point what so ever in going above 44 kHz in final reproduction.
What you hear when you listen to vinyl is two things. First, and most important, is nonlinear distortion, or "warmth", which is what many consider more pleasing than purely linear depiction of the sound as intended.
Second, you hear a different mastering, intended to work around the limitations of the analog medium.
What you do not hear is any increase in "resolution", because there is no such increase present - and even if there was, you could not hear it, because the CDA is already producing a better reproduction than your ear is capable of resolving.
Actually, what he does is exactly what you claim he does not - tell us what to think. If he has something which actually holds up, where is the published paper on it?
Oh, of course, no publication would publish something which would overturn science as we know it and sell them millions of copies, and gain them fame and fortune for being the ones who finally settle things. Right. Because they're all swimming in money from shrinking government grants.
Nobody is obliged to sell you anything, unless a contract has been entered into. If you provide payment in a form I do not approve of, you can not force me to sell to you anyway.
We had that in Sweden, only without battery. A "cash card" which you charged with cash or from a bank account, and then used for payments. It could be completely anonymous, if you wanted it to be.
It failed completely. Nobody used it, or wanted it.
With cash you need physical security, fraud checks to make sure employers do not skim money, protection when transporting money to the bank, safes for overnight storage of cash registers.
Handling cash is extremely expensive. All you need for credit cards is a card reader and a phone.
Having worked a lot with installing factory automation, I can actually parse what is stated in that article. The four years were not spent planning, but actually building the replacement factory content.
That is how installing factory assembly lines work. They are built offsite, one sub-assembly line at the time, complete with SAT acceptance, and then moved to the factory and installed and tested there.
That is what the article explains. They spent four years speccing and building sub-assembly lines, and then budgeted 8 weeks to remove the old assembly line and get the new ones running. Which is a crazy schedule, which they almost managed to keep - which is amazing.
But no, they did not shift over production in 8-10 weeks total implementation time. The new factory already existed at the start of those 8 weeks, only spread out at the integrator sites.
Init is fine with daemons that work as intended, and are reasonably stable. It suffers with broken code, and most competing replacements are trying to address that, not any actual flaws in init itself.
Infrared under those circumstances would show nothing at all. There is almost no infrared emissions painting anything at night, unless you bring your own IR light emitters. Thermal vision would see something, but at very low resolution and at very high cost.
And it is also very difficult to teach on thermal images, since there is so much spurious heat emission everywhere, from buildings, cars, manholes and the like.

So in short, it's all made up.
Actually, they demonstrate an overt disregard for bullshit claims.
Piers Corbyn does not make the kind of predictions you claim. You're putting forth something he has not done as factual.
Whether you do that in error or intentionally I have no idea about, but either way, it has nothing to do with either predictions or science.
Piers Corbyn?
You're invoking Piers Corbyn?
For serious?

That is enough to dismiss you out of hand.
Which is of course what has happened. It takes thousands of years for a reef to do that, but it has had those thousands of years.
Now, it doesn't have thousands of years.
I'll stick to having quality of life you can't even dream of.

The kid was criminally stupid in not reporting the vulnerability through the responsible disclosure contact
The kid thought this was intended behaviour. As, for that matter, would I if I encountered it.
He had no idea this was a problem that needed fixing.
Expecting him to report intended behaviour as a vulnerability, and calling him criminally stupid for failing to do so, borders on criminally stupid.
Which is quite interesting, given my experience with a Thinkpad Carbon X1 4th gen. I get around 10 hours on that running Windows, and can squeeze that to almost an extra hour if I really push hard on running nothing but Scrivener - but that requires Windows Update to behave, which it usually doesn't, pushing battery life below 9 hours.

So now I have removed Windows.
And the CPU's are no longer used in the context of Linux, thus obsolete in the context of Linux.
English takes context into account. You should too.

No mental gymnastics required.

Of course it's being handled on one page.
It just isn't handled to the reader's advantage.
So you prefer 200-page reports on something that can be handled by a page? Why?
Because if it is handled on a page, I am not given the full picture, and I have no idea what I sign.

I doubt that is different anywhere else.

Corner cases, mostly.
Init is fine with daemons that work as intended, and are reasonably stable. It suffers with broken code, and most competing replacements are trying to address that, not any actual flaws in init itself.
Except when back-end code works, but does not scale.
Or when back-end code works, but leads to race conditions.
Or when back-end code contains subtle errors leading to data getting corrupted.
In short, if you think back-end code is a walk in the park, you have never done any which has had to cope with appreciable load.
You weren't. AC is clueless. The modem has no drivers, but the winmodem does - and the modem functionality is in those drivers.
And the US has had more mass killings this year than that.
This. Year.

And we're not talking a few more. That is 12 mass killings in the UK in 46 years, and over 60 in the US this year.
And indeed, psychology matters. The psychological barrier to using a gun is very much lower than to use a knife, or building a bomb.
