If you would prefer to self host, there's always FreeSWITCH [0]. It can act as a server for meetings. There is a webRTC client called Verto Communicator that seems to work quite well, or you can use SIP clients. The documentation is a

It sounds like they made the behaviour imitate that of a bad scientific calculator. I've not used a physical for some years, but even then the Casio ones had a backspace, and had apparently done so for a good few generations.

Not the OP, and no experience with google, but I have personally worked in a way that sounds as if it could be similar: First, you start with a slow but correct prototype in python. This can then be refactored into python closer to C, think

It's worth noting that the linked article does offer selection bias as an explanation – suggesting that conservative supporters were more likely to write letters, supporters of other parties less likely to. Number of complaints seems a

Same here. After adopting this approach, I haven't had to look it up since. The real question I have left: why is this so intuitive for cp, but completely counterintuitive for ln? I wonder if is because we think of how we would follow

Yes, and the criticisms of Taylorism are fairly well-developed. In fact, a lot of the criticisms of Amazon's practices are much the same. With Amazon's level of data collection on individual warehouse and logistic workers, it puts
