Consumers don't get told prices are down because of privacy going away. Prices going down on technology is the norm, so it's not even suspicious.

It's also that they are using a bad metric, as pay has always heavily depended on the kind of job and qualifications they require. I bet that being a male doctor still pays more than being a female one because employers are not forced

Unless you need to deal with a lot of dumb tasks, unnecessary meetings and boilerplate, then you shouldn't need more than 40hrs, and in all honestly, 32hrs, as the more hours you push the worse they get. This AI race isn't going t

You could specify what's vanilla default in the org packages. For that example, there's a file-local way to specify custom TODO keywords[^0]. Maybe that can get into the standard, but I'd be Ok with with a primitive, vanilla

Maybe, I've heard statisticians say that 30 samples the mean is pretty much unlikely to change, but that's not the issue here, but that what we are measuring goes beyond food quality and gets skewed towards experiences

Reviews probably have too much noise. It's not only the food that gets rated and people taking the time to rate a place might be doing so because of a particularly good or bad experience they just had. It's not really a day to day
