That's fine. As long as the sensor is available the user can expose it. I think this is a pretty cool idea, and would yield more accurate measurements than estimating based off of latitude and cloud coverage alone. Albeit it'll al

I think that's exactly what OP was trying to say: Instagram WhatsApp, etc. footers/splash screens will now read "a Meta company."

Input validation is more general and helps mitigate other types of vulnerabilities, such as overflows and other injection attacks.

Why not just split the assets and the code, have the code reference a version of the assets, which are on a separate server and only fetched when needed?

You cannot be serious about your argument while still being supportive of these changes.

These units seem _incredibly_ low to me. Your skin can generate almost 3000 IU in just 15 minutes on the right day. Many doctors even recommend treatments of 150,000 IU or more, in one go to correct deficiencies (do not do attempt without a

I mean... if you go that route then I would say Kotlin isn't really ready to be used as a production language in most places due to the severe lack of tooling, especially when it comes to things like static analysis. Sure ktlint is the

There's the theory of Vitamin-D deficiency. It would make some sense given NYC's climate and time of year. In LA, people likely are exposed to the sun year round. It would be interesting to see if other respiratory illnesses exhib

That's interesting-- I hadn't heard that sugar or salt might counter satiation. I have seen a bit of correlation between sugar intake combined with fat intake, though. Which makes sense some given fast food menu items (high fat fo

I've had similar experiences in Russia. Well, at least with some of the municipal networks. Oddly enough, most cell networks seemed uninhibited.

This isn't always true, though. History of full of examples of people returning to "wrong" ideas only to find them not wrong at all.

Doesn't copying device data to another device, such as a laptop or desktop, do that? I mean... it's not cloud based, but I _thought_ it was a full local backup.

Even Mountain View has these issues. Not to as near of a degree as say SF, Oakland, or Berkeley, but almost all of the above I've witnessed in Mountain View. So, I wouldn't say OP is describing a specific part. It's rather pe

Or it's a random selection from a vetted pool of individuals. Or it's an elected position from a selection of random individuals. There are other alternatives than just elected vs appointed.

It would be somewhat balanced if there wasn't a cap on the number of representatives and there was 1 rep per N population. But that's not the case. So even in the House there is an imbalance.

Could it be that, at least some, university teach programming languages with the idea that Lisp has this feature? My PL course at Northeastern had SHLAC (Scheme Has Lambda Calculus) where we started with an identity function and built up fr

Who defines what "good enough" means? Is it basic functionality? What if that basic functionality contains security vulnerabilities? What if it is written in such a way that will cause potential, foreseeable problems down the road

Why do users need to have a 3rd party managing their identity? It seems like it would be _safer_ if users could setup their own OAuth infra which would then be certified for use with other systems. For people who lack the expertise or will

The way blockchain is currently implemented, a distributed ledger for currency necessitates having a chain that grows bigger and bigger. But one could have a distributed ledger which doesn't keep a record since the beginning of time. T

The child didn't choose to be in existence. Being born shouldn't equate to some sort of servitude until your parents pass. In many countries, the parents are legally obligated to provide those things until the child comes of age.

It's a bit more complicated than that, no? I mean... if someone is a Londoner born and raised but has to leave in order to buy a home is a bit more complicated of a situation than "they picked a particularly expensive market"
