Because they want to be able to do it at scale? The ideal approach would be to have packages of the "interesting" kind automatically diverted to a scanning location, and then continue on their way... Dont think of it as them being

As someone else has said above: companies are using a material that lasts 10,000 years for items that are single-use. That should be outright illegal unless there are literally no alternatives. Its insanely wasteful when you view it like th

That is a truism, right? Currently in the US we have private pharmaceutical companies driven by a profit motive, so profits are what drives their innovation. Setup a different system, and other motivations will drive their innovation, righ

Truths are not usually exclusive. Its true you have worked hard all your life, and overcome many obstacles. Its also true that many people do all of that, and are still unable to attain the lifestyle you have (whatever it may be). You have

Because, without NN, it doesn't have to be JUST unmetered. QoS can be used to throttle connections to Apple Music, hell, service to competing music services could even be denied totally.

Im always surprised by the amount of effort people put into trying to maintain a "clean" git history, and how much information they are willing to throw away to do that. I kept wondering whether I was missing something. I think ma

I have no interesting in convincing you to use C for anything, but it IS true in absolutely any language that if you are changing it, you should know what you are changing and how it works. You don't need to know the entire project, bu

The thing is, reading code is hard . Even well written code is hard to read and grok, the other kind can take days to absorb. But it is very effective as a way of spotting certain kinds of bugs, while at the same time gaining a much dee

If code is important enough to me that I care whether or not I lose it, I commit and push. I prefer to commit discrete change sets (not features, or stories, just a discrete set of changes that achieve a piece of what I am wanting, dont bre

I frequently swap between branches, for code review, or to move temporarily to something else for a short time. I decide whether to commit what I have done or whether to stash it for now, based on what state it is in. If I am still in the e

There is a clear problem with that approach, which is that it fails to take into account the pressure that society can place on small businesses, especially in small to medium areas. Given two cake makers in town, if one is happy to provide

The parents point is valid though. If not eating sugar could slow (all) cancers, then not eating at all would clearly cover that case, and should have slowed the lung cancer. At the very least, his anecdote is convincing to me that it &quot
