My experience is the same as yours.

When I rode the same regular routes on my gravel bike on slick 38s vs my road bike on slick 25s (up from 23s, as big as I could fit!), the road bike felt faster but GPS data didn't really back it up over the course of a whole ride.

The road bike is a bit more nimble with twitchier handling sure, but the more jarring ride of the skinny tires gives the illusion of speed. But in the real, non-racing world the data tells a different story. At the limit I have no doubt the road bike is ultimately faster, but that's not most of my riding.

I'm not a racer but am an avid and reasonably fit recreational rider, so I ditched the road bike entirely and enjoy my more comfortable and practical gravel bike, with minimal speed penalty. Plus I can ride on dirt roads and broken pavement with ease and comfort, to boot.

I think most riders are better served by gravel/endurance bikes than pure road bikes.
You remember rightly.
A completely different feature. In word this should be called "reveal spaces and line breaks".

In WordPerfect this is activating a TeX mode in addition to your WYSIWYG. You have two buffers, with two coursers, that stay in sync. Maybe the closes analogy is a jupyter notepad for tex? But fast.

I have never seen anything like this, althou LyX offers one mode that is kind of a mix of both of them.
How large percentage of Stripe
Identity customers do you foresee actually are required by legal regulation to retain all this information, as opposed to verifying certain aspects of an individual, as opposed to wanting it and likely handling it in ways violating GDPR and similar regulation?

I’d argue that before Stripe sends any PII other than validation results to a customer, it needs to verify that the business indeed is under regulatory requirements to gather this data, and only sell the required part.

Alternatively, you could invert the process, allowing integrating businesses to send documents to Stripe, who replies if they’re legit or not.

Finally, if there is a need for sharing data with customers for e.g. KYC, shouldn’t this be priced significantly higher than verification/validation, so that Discords and Clubhouses can’t justify it from a business perspective?

What is the reasoning for doing neither of the above?
In my entire life, I’ve never heard of the need to clean and lubricate a zipper. Heck, I’ve got decade old jeans with a zipper than can be washed in harsh detergent, survive an accidental off in a bike, and still open and close.

If your zipper needs maintenance every time you use it, you need a different zipper.

I do have the option to create a SwiftUI project in the last version of xcode that would run on my OS, so it should support at least some of it. The question to ask, then, is how much of the new stuff, if any, this app uses.

edit: a lot of it. I tried changing the deployment target to 10.14 and building it. Got 101 "'SomeSwiftThing' is only available in macOS 10.15 or newer" errors.

It's not static. But it probably approaches a ceiling where additional population would struggle to survive.
Another big difference is simply the quality of the tire. A supple 48mm knobby could be faster than a stiff slick (and we know the width doesn't matter). The Rene Herse Oracle Ridge knobbies are 48mm, quite supple and corner well on the road, plus they are noise cancelling!
New York Is Back. Now IT Has a Second Chance
I'm not sure Sorels are as good as they used to be. But, yeah, for not super steep hiking they're great (you can't really front point). And you can even carry an extra pair of liners for backpacking. For flat these days, they're great for microspikes. When I was getting started in winter hiking, it's what most people used. I only got plastics when I started doing some real mountaineering.

You can't really go wrong with Sorels especially for non-high angle hiking. I've actually been an instructor in winter hiking programs.

Wordperfect had a god-awful learning curve.
Especially if you were coming from Wordstar.

However, back in the days of yore in Jamaica, pretty much every office and law firm that had an IBM-PC had Wordperfect on it.

The secretaries (yes!) back then were goddesses in every key combination, formatting tricks and ways how to print the document exactly how they wanted it.

However, it's not even close to VIM for casual text editing.

The Podcasting Hype House from Hell
While I accept that humans are to some degree altering the climate, I've come the opposite conclusion.

And I'm not a veteran dating back to mid 2000's. I'm a veteran dating to the late 80's at which time I was very concerned. But the dire predictions simply didn't come to pass. We have been burning coal for well over 200 years. And oil for over 100. Where is the massive climate change? Where is the massive increase in extreme weather events?

So I highly doubt the accuracy of many models. I also highly doubt a slightly warmer wetter world will be net negative for humanity should it come to pass.

I don't see my skepticism to be anti scientific at all. My purpose for posting this is not to argue against climate change, simply to point out that the magnitude and ultimate effects are not settled in my mind at least. The issue isn't closed. It's not "fact". It's a hypothesis as to what the effects will be and the way forward is very much opened to debate. It's certainly not "one side is absolutely right!" at all.

I'm a creature of habit in a small town, so I hadn't used pickup any before I saw someone jogging through a local big box store with a cart full of totes and knew I didn't want to use it.

It seems, uh, unlikely that the stores would try to build a system where the worker gets paid for the time that the customers save.
I think tires affect the ride quality and comfort and speed more than any other easy to replace component. Even if you don't go any wider, the supple tires from Rene Herse really blew me away. I think it's worth it, or just waint until you have to replace the tires anyways.

What would happen if they ban scraping altogether? Is this the end of google search?
I don think that is what it purports to do, or likely will end up doing.

It might result in people seeing how much common aspects a story has, and that helps to divorce the factual aspects from the editorialization. Maybe.

It might result in a broader intake of facts (if both/either side is being selective).

It might result in a litany of things better than the binary dung-hosing we have now.

If the worst that happens is people attempt to be less binary, I'd still consider that a small victory.

Being centrist is not inherently bad either, it just is. The only concern there I would have would be if one intentionally tries to triangulate towards a middle, as opposed to arriving there naturally.

It is because I am a strong advocate for privacy that I believe Microsoft is wrong. If Microsoft really wanted to protect user privacy they would restrict access to user data on their platform. This is basic entry level security: apply access control.

Microsoft wants to split hairs in order to both maximize revenue and prevent competitor access, which is nothing to do with privacy. If Microsoft wins companies will be able to use this verdict to destroy privacy for revenue gain.

Technology was advanced to routinely end up with bikes beneath the minimum, but those days are over. With wider tires, disc brakes, excessive focus on aerodynamics and even wider gear ranges they are usually racing considerably above the limit. These days you'll find bikes in the range of 5000 euros advertised that are considerably heavier than what you would have got for 1500 ten years ago.
Oh, I missed that we were talking about businesses. So long as individuals can stay private, I'm not sure I mind that, then.

3. Where/how would one buy reliable magnetic tape storage devices?

The abolishment of slavery wasn’t an extreme positive position to take in pre civil war America. A truly extreme position would be granting non-white races equal rights up to and including the right to vote. Pennsylvania and New Jersey abolished slavery but walked back equal rights in voting after once passing laws to allow it.

To contrast, the ideals of the slave holders were extreme.

As for abolishing slavery, internationally both slavery and serfdom had slowly been banned by every organized headed religion and country on the European continent. It was only in the US, and then only in the Southern states that people held the extreme position of needing to enslave an entire race despite how immoral and unprofitable it was.

I say this to argue that an effective policy is rarely an extreme one. Effective policies are simply one step to the left or right of where we already stand, not a great leap into the unknown. Often, as with abolishing slavery, we already will have examples where other people experimented with the policy.
There are many use cases where it's enough to verify that the user is an actual person, and also to prevent the same person to have multiple accounts. So, it would make sense that Stripe verifies the person, but keeps the details from the business itself.

I trust Stripe more than a random online forum, a dating app, or a social network, which might offer a higher quality service when people are verified. There's a high risk that the ID documents will leak from these services at some point if they get access to them. I don't want them to know who I am at all, if they don't need to know.

It would also offer a way for preventing sybil attacks on P2P networks, or help connecting to non-evil nodes on a P2P network (such as Bitcoin Lightning Network) without knowing the other person. In these cases there could be a some kind of signature generated by Stripe that could be used as an additional trust factor without centralizing the system.

Excellent point! When a technology becomes more efficient it goes from being something useful to something game-altering (literally).

There's a good analogy to professional road cycling. Before Lance Armstrong, of course cyclists did drugs and tried to gain ever dietary/fitness/metabolic advantage they could through experimentation. But then we got well-funded and systematic methods to measure the effects of the cheat, methods to cleanly implement the cheat at the professional level, and methods to bully everyone on the team into compliance...

Dual sports can usually withstand a few drops with nothing more than new levers, parts are cheap, and maintenance is usually easier than street bikes. I almost always recommend a small dual sport as a first bike. If you get a used one for a decent price you can almost always sell it for what you paid for it even if it takes a couple of tumbles, and you can see if you like off-road too.
