For the first two paragraphs, my answer is basically: Yes, and?

For the case of paint: paint can be understood in both superstitious and non superstitious ways regardless of if you can or can’t see it, and whether it is or is not being understood superstitiously depends on the details of what one does or doesn’t know. I’ve read superstitious accounts of colour by people who can see it — “pink is for girls, blue is for boys”, which of bold or soft colours is better for a child’s education, does yellow encourage intellectual thought…

Here’s something for you: is the use of blue-and-orange in action film posters backed by research that poster designers know about, or are they just cargo-culting one particular successful film’s poster? As with John Frum, this isn’t about the original, it’s about why everyone else is mimicking it: a blind or colourblind person doesn’t need to have a colour qualia to find out either way.

I think your groups are too broadly encompassing. The division between superstition and scientific method is inside any given decision, not between entire beliefs or results, so you can’t just point to a specific belief or result and categorise it as either. (I’m not sure I was clear on that myself in the previous postings).
This seems like another example of people taking open source for granted. Software takes time and effort to create, and in return for that effort the author receives ownership and copyright. The author of an open source project can do whatever they want with it - limited only by other legal limitations (such as, it’s illegal to intentionally destroy other people’s properly).

In a legal contract, some value (consideration) must be contributed by both sides. What do most people contribute to the open source projects that they use? When the answer is “nothing”, then why do they expect the right to judge the decisions of the author?

Sure this is rant-ish. But I’m saying that people sure feel privileged to raise a hue and cry when open source authors make decisions that they don’t agree with. Don’t like it? Fork it - or buy a license that has the terms you want.
Can’t imagine that moves the needle. Most cruise missiles were hitting already.

I would imagine this is simply because they’re out of cheaper missiles.
You don’t personally need to be. If it’s free money why hasn’t someone done it? Why are there houses sitting there vacant?

I also disagree with the silly assertion that landlords are sociopaths would you rather people be homeless? If someone is unable to afford to buy a house what should they do?

Also - are business owners sociopaths? Doctors? Farmers? Medical device makers?

I'm sure there are better examples, but this specific one actually does make the experience better for the reader. People often return to good blog posts and it's a lot easier to remember a title than a numerical id. If you can remember the title and know the url of the blog and it has a simple naming convention, you can bypass the search engine entirely and just go straight there. Sports sites are really good about this. <URL>/<LEAGUE>/stats always gets you the stats. <URL>/<LEAGUE>/standings gets you the standings. If you're curious how a team is doing or who currently leads in scoring or whatever, you know where to go without needing assistance from search.
It is a thousand times more likely for you to die in a car or because of a car than because you fell of your bike (provided you wear a helmet).
The site sounds neat, and using the site to answer this question about itself is amusingly meta. I'm not sure if M$ are 1:1 dollars or even real money, so I wanted a FAQ or something, but there's only a sign up form (on mobile), which I'm certainly not going to do for something that might just be a Hollywood Stock Exchange type of game. This is all probably intentional, but letting you know just in case!

Did they inform you that the food was poisoned? Does it come with a bright red wrapper saying "warning poison?

If they just hand you food without a word then (at least in quite a few jurisdictions, but maybe not all) they are liable.

I've been in Apple's ecosystem (MacBook Pro + iPhone 11 + AirPod Pro) for 2.5 years. The harmony between the devices is just fantastic. Even after all these months I discover a nifty little feature that's super useful. The latest is copy/paste works across devices. Once discovered I began using it more often.

Apple epitomises the power of compounding. The level of deep integration they have built across and within devices (their own CPU, OS, and app etc.,) is impressive to say the least.

To pick another example; I just can't use any web browser other than Safari because of things like touch-ID enabled password store; privacy relay, hide my email and they keep piling on such thoughtful features once or twice a year. To an extent I'm now contemplating migrating from Fastmail (have my own domain) to Apple Mail.
If it were a Ukrainian guy who did this I think it would be much less controversial. It’s good and proper for people being invaded to fight back with whatever means are available to them, but it’s a problem if we end up in a place where major conflicts have to escalate into global cyber war.

(I should mention that Russia already does tolerate destructive hacking against the West, and has been doing so for a while - that doesn’t change my opinion, but it would be unfair not to note.)
Oh man this looks great! Wish I could use it but I'm outside the U.S.
Several countries have implemented some form of Universal jurisdiction for severe crimes like genocide, meaning their courts may prosecute regardless of nationality of the accused or country where the supposed crime happened.

Of course the practical problem is getting hold of the suspected war criminals.

I hope I am wrong. But I don't see anywhere in the text of this license any explicit permission to use it for any purpose, it's basically only a warranty disclaimer, unless some bits were omitted by accident.
No, that's injury. We're looking for something that adds insult to injury.
You have to understand the difference between a move and a copy. "let b = a" can have 2 meaning - either copy a value to b if a supports copy or move the value a to b and now you cannot use a anymore. Similarly if you did "let a = *b" (where b is a reference) you are doing either a move or a copy depending on b's type. If b doesnt support copy then this will fail to compile as you are trying to move from a reference which is not possible as moving requires ownership of the value and the reference only borrowed it.
For anything Python, I recommend you try rich/textual.

A 9-line summary of textbook physics
Fun fact: all physics experiments ever made can be described by 9 lines,
without any deviation between theory and observations.

The 9 lines are sufficient to describe quantum physics and gravity.

It seems that the 9 lines even contain all (update: natural) sciences, not only physics.

Finding an exception to the 9 lines will make you famous.

So will the discovery of a 10th line.

Thousands of researchers work towards these dreams, but none succeeded yet.

80% of the German casualties happened in the eastern front, and there is where the war occurred and was decided. It doesn't matter if the Wehrmacht was superior or inferior to the US army.

A few months after the US was declared war, after the winter of 1941 to 1942, top German generals thought the war couldn't be won. Germany was stuck between two fronts and was unable to make progress in any. With enough time the high or low quality US troops would be joining the war.

The Germans weren't close to getting the atomic bomb, so the quality of the US army respective to the German army was irrelevant to the outcome of the war.
In the early days of our local rfid-powered public transport payment system, i tried scanning a random misc rfid card from my wallet instead of the correct payment card.

Google continues to provide information services to Russian war propaganda sources.

When IT community will assume responsibility for death of civilians, war crimes and crimes against humanity that Russian Federation is committing in Ukraine?
No. Most people lack the numeracy/logical reasoning skills to even configure nearly ready-to-deploy software and services for specific business use cases. There will always be a domain for people with this particular talent. Plus there’s billions of people out there yet to be served by the existing stuff.
I would assume that relates to lack of substantial case law or precedents outside of US&EU.
The Internet is a poor comparison, as it required a significant investment in hardware out in the world at large for it to be a practical consideration.
How does this compare with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X2x? x2x is over 25 years old. I'm sure UC is more streamlined, however the basic premise is the same. I did actually use x2x for a while (but normally just "exported the display" back to my home system. X-windows was/is rather amazing.

I have a hard time imagining installing Linux on a machine that is over 7 years old (currently macOS backwards compatibility is about 7 years backwards, depending a bit on your model).

I mean ok some people will do that but at that point the machine starts to either obsolete or there is something wrong with it already. Why not just run a macOS that is couple of versions older, than install some Linux that probably can't even sleep properly..
I really hope no hospital did use node and npm to store important medical information or on critical systems.

But if they did, people might die for real, if suddenly important information about patients is gone or manipulated. Or a important operation had to be canceled because of it. How can one critizise bombings of hospitals and then potentially do the same on a software level?

An update:

- wife, one week from onset symptoms, still has low-grade fever, diarrhoea (seems to be subsiding), very tired, not coughing much any more. Lost sense of taste and smell.

- 17yo daughter, 6 days from onset of symptoms, normal temperature yesterday morning, no remaining symptoms - total duration of symptoms 4 days.

- 10yo daughter, 5 days from onset of symptoms, 37.2°C this morning, no noticeable symptoms but temperature still slightly above normal.

- me, 5 days from onset of symptoms, temperature down to 36.5°C yesterday and has remained there, no remaining symptoms. Total duration of symptoms 3 days.

To the down-voters to my previous post: open your eyes and minds, learn to think for yourselves. Realise that Big Pharma is not your friend, nor are the politicians who are on their pay roll. Individual doctors can be your friends, the staff at the hospital can be your friend, researchers can be your friends. The industry around them is decidedly not your friend. This used to be common knowledge, what has changed? What made you so afraid to speak up?
There are plenty of beavers in northern Minnesota, particularly in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness along the Canadian border.
Turbo Vision was very fun to use and I made a good bit of money contracting on small projects in grad school in the early 90s using it. It made writing text mode guis a breeze. Borland's later Object Windows Library (OWL) was, in my opinion, much clunkier but it was done in C++ compared to Turbo Vision's Pascal.

Probably the most interesting app I did was a small quality control/stats app for this book: "Quality Control 4th Edition" (https://www.amazon.com/Quality-Control-Dale-H-Besterfield/dp...). All the data entry used Turbo Vison and all the graphs and charts used BGI (Borland Graphics Interface). It was meant for student use but I found out later it was used by Jim Beam on their whiskey distillery production line.
I AM THE OP (felt like I needed to say that to not break the chain :D )

I feel like your questions were answered - pretty much the answer I'd give.

1) The only cost is cost of a person who has a deep understanding of Google Analytics. Google Analytics courses are hours long but they only teach you the first layer. 2nd and 3rd come with experience - I've been working with GA for about 4 years and there are still things that surprise me, caveats that we sometimes forget about.
Quick example: Beginners will quite often select 2 dates (separately), get number of users from those 2 dates, add them together and say: that's the number of users we had in those 2 dates. But if you selected those 2 dates together, you'd see a lower number. Why? Because a user who visited in both periods would count as 2 if looking at separate dates, but only as 1 if looking together.

2) There isn't anything official but there's lots of blog posts - from great people like Simo Ahava and Julius Fedorovicius. If you're just starting out, I'd recommend sitting down and writing questions you want answering. Default GA implementation will not give you answers to all your questions - they had to create a product that works OK for most, so it doesn't answer specific business questions. The greatest problem with people saying Google Analytics doesn't give them the data they need is they don't start with the question. Examples of tracking I recently implemented because I taught the team to ask questions WHEN they change/implement something:
-Are users printing the pages? Tracking is set up to track when they use browsers print button.
-Do we have any searches on page that return no results? Do we have searches that return too many results?
-How accurate are our results - which position of the result do they normally click on.

Those questions you wouldn't answer with basic setup. By setting up custom event tracking, we can answer them.

Lastly, on the most advanced setup (keep in mind you might not actually need it) - new version of Google Analytics offers free integration with Big Query. This means you get to analyse the data using SQL.
Neat. Unfortunately appears to be limited to streets in your local area. I hoped/expected a list of interesting destinations in the area such as art installations, parks, or even popular restaurants etc.
c19early/ivmmeta etc. and all those sites/faux meta analyses are not really reliable for determining (or even hypothesising) efficacy; We don’t see such benefit when looking at defined endpoint points in RCTs, rather than their weird synthesis of disparate cherry picked endpoints from ecological, cohort, case-control studies and RCTs. They mostly show low to very low quality/certainty evidence, as well as in vitro studies, observational studies, retrospective studies, non-randomised studies, and/or non-controlled studies. They even include studies that were negative. They also do not follow any methodological or report guidelines; i.e. not including protocol registration with methods, search strategies, inclusion criteria, quality assessment, certainly of evidence etc.
There were text mode UIs well before Windows 3.0 - Microsoft had their own TUIs, similar to Turbo Vision but with a subtly different style. They even supported a "monochrome mode" option that wouldn't look out of place on a VT-100 terminal.

Being responsible for your work includes maintaining legacy code.

And more importantly, when required code that ain't yours, plenty of people that don't do and don't like it unfortunately.

But it's useful to know which mistakes were made so you don't need to repeat them.
Like any human endeavor, open source contains an implicit expectation that everyone is going to behave reasonably. You can disagree with the author’s arguments that this behavior is unreasonable, but it kinda misses the point to say that open source authors can do whatever they want and nobody has a right to judge them. When I’m a guest in someone’s house, they have every right to do what they want, but if they decide one day to bellow a war cry and start smashing their plates I’m probably not gonna visit again.

I agree with you that it would be good if Apple supported Linux containers directly, like ChromeOS and Windows. I bought a $350 Lenovo Chromebook last year and in addition to touchscreen and included keyboard case and pencil, it also has seamless integration for using Linux containers. I don’t own a Windows machine, but I have heard good reports about their Linux container system.

All that said, I would be delighted if Apple supported an M1 version of VirtualBox.
