I would totally pay for YouTube premium if they weren't so good about making me watch my favorite gun-tubers on other platforms. Every channel has this endless and constantly changing list of words they can't say for fear of being demonetized.

Fuck them indeed.

Break up the monopoly and I won't need to block your ads because I'll be able to go elsewhere.

Quite possible, but I've also seen genuine bullying this way too.

They would only be forced to if she filed a lawsuit against the anonymous caller. People have done that before.

I moved Mykolaiv+Odessa to US in the 90's, then married someone who grew up in Canada. Citizen of both.

Food wise, try a lot, Ukrainian flavors are incredibly bland, depending on where you live (I know Mississauga well) the Indian food is very good and authentic and kind of the polar opposite of traditional slavic cooking.

Canadians are more diverse, cultures vary depending on who you're talking to, cannot always tell just by appearance. Very very different from Ukraine in this regard as well.

Other things people here covered already.

Here's a fun thought experiment: What gregorian year and date will the spacian date value of zero correlate to? Trick question.

The atomic clock on the moon and every other celestial body colonized will simply start at zero, and thanks to relativity it will not actually be the same rate of time passing as on earth.

Enjoy your nightmares.

How do you define young?

I'm definitely too old but I loved Tarkov before cheaters ruined it.

I know some early-20's folks who grew up on DayZ.

Both games very hard to not suck at.

You disagree with my statement that is not actually contradicted by anything in your statement, apart from your open acceptance of flawed studies?

My question then is this: what do they teach kids to allow them to spot flaws and what do they teach them as the method for determining who is reputable? Beyes theorem? How to control for multiple variables? I don't actually know whether they go into this or tell kids to JUST trust an authority.

Flawed studies have done all kinds of harm over the years before being retracted. Linking vaccines to autism for one.

Interns do but should not get the level of write access that makes a durable change impacting all customers. Deadlock a server or even wipe SQL tables, this is an outage. Break a customer's configuration, send the wrong client's paperwork, again small scale problem you can deal with. Interns don't change company policy.

I think it's a more foundational architecture question: why do you push builds to all customers at once without gating it by SOMETHING that positively confirms the exact OTA update package has been validated? The absolute simplest thing I can think of is pushing to 1 random car and waiting for the post-install self tests to pass before pushing to everyone else. Maybe there's actually no release automation?? But then you make it safe a different way. It's just defensive coding practice, I'm not even a CS degree but learned on the job something always breaks so you generally account for the expectation that everything will fail by making a fail-safe just so the failure is not spectacular. Nothing fancy, just enough mitigation to keep the fuck up from eating into your weekend if it happens on a Friday.

To be more precise: fuel efficiency standards go down with the physical volume a vehicle takes up.

So every year efficiency requirement goes up, but you just update the body every few years to add a little more sheet metal and stay within your legal mandate.
