The main issue is more funding won't help; all it does is patch things up, and the root causes of the issues never get solved.

With reform, you could remove bureaucracy where it causes issues and add it where there's breakdowns in communications instead of just adding more funding to improve capacity in one obvious area and expose a bottleneck immediately before or after it, making the majority of the extra funding wasted

pure water at mean atmosphere pressure at sea level if we're getting technical, but frankly human body temperature varies from 35.5C (95.9F) to 37.5C (99.5F) anyway, and that's before considering when people are ill, so if we go down that route it falls apart quickly enough that the definition of 100 given above is clearly just as arbitrary

How is 0F 100% cold though, most places will never get that cold, so it surely makes more sense to have 0F at freezing point of water and 100F at 38C?

Are they identical objects?

I mean they could go underwater and just come up to breathe and eat dead ants

Storage forensics can look into variations in charge to suggest "this used to be a 1" or "this used to be a 0"

To store more data that way, it'd have to be analog data in reality, as otherwise data loss due to charge decay would be immense so you'd need so much error checking you'd lose most of the storage savings

If you trust your wiring skills you could theoretically just alter it to have a low-amp constant power source then higher-amp power source by adding the signals when the sensor trips... I think the issue is a lot to do with the fact LEDs are way less dimmable than older lights though, as dimmer switches cut off parts to the waveform so have lower rms voltage and flicker, whereas you'd want to supply the same voltage, just fewer amps... if you're keeping it constant I think it's very possible?

As someone who works in advertising, that is partially true, but also not the complete story...

Data brokers want you to believe that the more data you have the more likely your ads are to be successful, but in reality it's not about the amount of data but the quality of the data. If you have someone who has looked at reviews of gym shoes/different models on different stores, then that data is pretty valuable as you can focus on getting them to buy from your store or try and advertise models at the top of their budget, which will likely lead to a higher ROI than just advertising on fitness forums (note it is super hard to get the balance between tipping people over the line to buy and advertising them something they were already going to buy/had already decided against - Google particularly are absolutely terrible at this, but also do evaluation in house, so they'll misrepresent to advertisers that your ad which showed up one link above your non-sponsored link made 100% of the difference in getting the purchase). Similarly, if you have data that someone is active on a car audio forum and recently bought a specific model of car, you can advertise kits/speakers specifically to that car, which is better than just advertising "hey, we make audio upgrade kits for [specific car/cars in general] on a forum/related site".

This also makes advertising one of the few situations where using ML actually makes sense - there's huge amounts of data (way more than a person can consider) to come in, and patterns which lead to good results (someone purchasing something) or bad results (someone not purchasing something). It's not worth a human targeting every single microcategory, but if an ML model can pick up that advertising to (eg) people who have recently purchased cameras who are interested in triathlons and often visit areas with with high rainfall makes them more likely to buy your specific aftermarket lens hood, then it makes buying the ads so much more worth it and also lets you extrapolate onto other microcategories which may also have similar results, and if they don't then that updates the model.

Generally data is less useful for awareness campaigns (ie "next time you're in the supermarket/in the business for x, buy our brand" type of campaign), especially if it's already on a relevant site, but it's still somewhat useful if someone is reading on a (trustworthy) news site or watching an ad-supported streaming service, however purchase data & activity data is still useful for showing more relevant ads, as while 90%+ of people on a fitness forum are going to be into fitness, I don't think 90%+ of general site visitors or tv show viewers are going to be into anything specific enough to make it worth it to advertise it.

The reason they have to manipulate the audience is because people look for validation and so feel good when other people react to things in the same way as them. If another equally funny show has a laugh track and you don't, yours will likely be less enjoyable to watch unless it's a specific form of humour which benefits from not having a laugh track.

Basically a laugh track can't save a terrible show, but it can manipulate people into finding a mediocre show more enjoyable to watch, but a mediocre show will make people laugh organically at least a few times anyway.

It's pretty common in Northern English and I think maybe also Australian:

The fact it's not only possible but regularly used when the expectation is that it'd be hard to do without choking is why it's such a weird word

Absolutely, it's just English is very weird

it's very rare in any language, complexity at the start is not uncommon, but complexity at the end is, also the ordering of the consonant types and the fact there's two fricatives in a row at the end, it's not just a word that not only has no place existing, but also one that should be so unstable it'd change to something less complex in decades at most, yet it's stayed pretty consistent for a while

It's also actually 4 consonants as there's an unwritten k in many accents, or ng is pronounced as ŋg in others, so stɹɛŋ(k|g|∅)θs

strengths

it breaks so many linguistic rules yet feels just fine to say

I think there's a large fanbase because of the intersection of people who grew up with them and the people who were too young to see them live but wished that they could, so yes, people probably do care to an extent, but it's more accurate that people will be interested to hear it so they can try and get tickets

I can't really think of a band that reasonably could get back together which would have a larger pull except for maybe One Direction, but even that's a push when considering the number of people who could be interested in getting tickets

If it's everything you do, then no, I struggle a lot with work ethic/just being a lazy pos but even then I do have some things I enjoy and am willing to work for... I think finding more things I enjoy (cycling, dnd & programming mainly) has helped a lot with that, so I feel like just trying new things and being willing to "give up" on them fast if you don't like them may be good?

I mean UK & Norway having oil while also both being top 10 in Europe for use of renewables 👀

For places like Europe which are politically stable within themselves, places that can provide way more than they need renewably (uk with wind, norway with hydro, spain with solar) should just pretty much provide for the whole continent and maybe make some nice profit in the process (as they are right now, UK is producing 70% from renewables and exporting 14% of their generation to other countries right now - https://grid.iamkate.com)

If you put the pumped storage in other countries it even balances out the nimbyism and control of the whole system

Now let's see by class... Chances are it turns out to be yet another class or even regional divide that's had the focus shifted to race as that keeps the tensions and fighting amongst the poors

Not even that, it's more than likely some PM said "we want to open the camera and be ready to record when someone goes on the story tab", then it gets implemented as needing permissions first and not considering that some people wouldn't want to give the permissions and only upload from camera roll

Anarchist and Anti-Capitalist aren't universally agreed with among reasonable people, and when you throw all those together you know you're just going to get a bunch of angsty shitstirrers who are anti-establishment for the sake of it but like to paint themselves as heroes

As a follow up, to get a third (and more) term would it be possible to run for vp and have a contract with someone who agrees to run for president then resign immediately after inauguration, or is there a law against that?
