How do you prove you were tricked into giving consent to tracking?

I don't know how this misinformation started spreading but I'm pretty sure 20% is nowhere near enough for herd immunity and I have not seen anything authoritative to the contrary. Barring something compelling to the contrary I see

That seems immensely more painful for a nontrivial project though. It'll clog the CI for everyone and nobody will go back and rebase to make sure every single commit is a self-contained passing unit.

> If your team insists on 1 PR == 1 commit Yeah that's the scenario I'm thinking about. The trouble I have with this is two things: - People inherently don't make the PRs as granular as a commit would be, because it puts l

How do you convince other people of this though? That's been what I've struggled with. I hate squashing too, but I can't convince anybody.

That would make it too easy to understand.

It seems subtly different (and more correct) to use outmigration, based on what the definitions here suggest. Emigration seems to suggest leaving the country, whereas outmigration seems to suggest leaving for a different part of the same co

Question: as a layman, knowing nothing about the quantitative nature of the evidence, neutrinos seem like the perfect candidates for dark matter, since we've already detected them and we know interact so poorly with anything. Why are

Is there even a way to update Python on Windows? I haven't figured out any way other than duplicate installs, a bunch of manual copy/paste/extract of older packages, and hoping for the best.

It confuses me why r < 1 isn't the goal everywhere. It seems like such an obvious thing to aim for. Any ideas?

I think the idea is "if you're going to break compatibility, might as well make all the improvements at once".

That site looks amazing. It only seems to be state-level though. Do you know if it (or any other site) has aggregated local (city- or county-level) data?

Looks like a great list. Installed a lot of them seamlessly through Arch. Now the hard part will be remembering they exist :-)

Where did I say it doesn't deserve scrutiny? Scrutinize it all you want, I'm sure it went through lots of people before being published. "Scrutiny" is not the same thing as actually accusing them of lying though. > Ev

I have no clue if they're lying or not, and I'm open to the possibility that they are, but you're not really making a good case for it here. It's pretty disingenuous to claim they track users and base it on lack of mathe

I see, thanks. I'm looking at that source and confused what it's actually doing though. What is the "tracking" aspect? I see ShouldAppendHeaders() returns true on doubleclick.net, but on the face of it, it seems to just
