i think this sort of scenario is where an ai code comb through is going to add value - get an ai to guess the likely name of variables/functions based on usage and context etc. It'd make a great starting point for manually labelli

it depends on why and exact purpose of said comparison. If the comparison is meant to show the drop in efficiency as part of age and usage, then yes. However, if you wanted to _only_ compare design upgrades, you don't want wear and tea

and that inflation was (partially) due to the lack of supply of production (say, of cars). Which is due to the lack of supply of components (that was cancelled due to expectation of low demand, as well as various shipping/cargo issues

The thing is, those 50 yr old machine tools might be still good, but the more recent CNC machines are much more efficient, and require way less manual dexterity to use (say, compared to a lathe). This is the whole idea of industrialization

car manufacturers, right at the beginning of covid, started cutting orders of components from their suppliers, thinking that demand is going to drop due to covid induced recession. Guess what happened next?

i read the parent post's advice as duplicating, rather than changing - e.g., you keep the existing domain, but also the exact same app is available from those other domains. But you're not wrong - i dont think the domain has a big

the US being weak is why new wars start. Like it or hate it, the reason there was many decades of (relative) peace after the fall of the USSR is due to the US being the only superpower. Obviously, china doesnt like that.

it's cynical because these activists who do it are using it for fame and clout; they still enjoy the benefits of these environmental destruction (which is simply exported else where, or the costs borne by someone else other than them).

it wouldn't be suicide at all. There's no penalty for anyone calling out what might seem like a bubble. If it turns out to be an actual bubble, they can claim to be prophetic visionaries. If it turns out it's not a bubble, no
