Depends on the cat. If they're simply going with tapping the roll to spin it, that may work for a bit. I've found that rolls accessible to a cat tend to morph into big balls of clawed unusable pulp.
Microsoft dominated with IE back in the day for the same reason Chrome and Safari are the dominant choices. People don't tend to change the default if it works okay enough. Firefox dropped heavily years ago as the market was saturated with other new choices already installed on mobile and Chromebooks, but recent numbers are about the same as they have been for a while. Maybe even still growing, as all the numbers I find are percentages, and there's no doubt we've had an explosion of device use.
Yes, there is a low unemployment number. As with the rest, you haven't validated that it's a good measure of the current state of things. It's arguably never been.
Yes, definitely increased some. Where's the rest of the data, such as part time or unemployed, or even population growth? Like I said, a single number means not so much without context. But it's an impressive graph.
Curious what shift there has been in full time/part time numbers. Full time wages going up is great for those who are experiencing it, but if there are less actual full timers, is that an improvement?
The art of a good statistician is to make sure what their numbers are saying is an actual reflection of reality. I'm not saying this graph is falsified, I don't know. But numbers can be made to say anything. I learned this years ago in arguments about what "unemployment" meant. It's much more complex than a single number, but a single number is used in the media because it's easier to paint the picture wanted.
I've come to the conclusion that all these breach notices and the free stuff they offer for X months is a huge scam to get you sign up up for something. Either that, or every company has woefully underpaid/incompetent IT people. I'm waiting for the next news story to break on another company that somehow got passwords or identity info hacked that was stored in plain text...something I learned how to not do back in the 90s with basic HTML and PHP.
In short - I don't believe them. They all are using the same form letters, it's a scheme that they're all in on.
The issue isn't the prices. It's that the prices go up but income doesn't. Get out the pitchforks, but let's go after the real villains.
For me it's just his approach to talk about things. I had hope for him taking the reins of a new Cosmos, but he's not Sagan and it didn't work. As for Bill Nye, I always preferred Beakman for the same reason, personality.
“It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known.”
We do have a number of great communicators out there, many are Youtube channel creators. They just aren't as likely to get to the majority of regular people since someone would need to start looking for answers to trigger the algorithm.
Some of the best Sagan public moments were on the Tonight Show with Carson. And Carson being a great host knew when to shut up and let a guest talk, but I think when Sagan was on Carson shut up because he was fascinated with what Sagan would say.
Samsung? We got one used and it's great for the drying part, but when I went to research how to change the "melody", and I'm being generous here, to a chime or something else...nope. You get that, or silence. So we use silence and listen for the sound of it stopping. That song is terrible, and for there to be no options at all in a modern appliance...why was this a good idea on the drawing board?
They shouldn't in principle, but they don't have a Constitutional reason they shouldn't be doing it.
Aside from the orbit change mentioned, the huge increase in stellar radiation would certainly blow much of the lighter elements including water away. The core and some residuals that might remain on the far sides would be all that's left.
I get the humor in the irony, and it's a meme place, but never give an inch. A private school can do what they want, but public is owned by the people, and there cannot be discrimination with religious stances. So therefore, no side can be chosen, even in jest.
Not a fan of the theocracy that's been allowed to seep in over many decades being wrapped in falsities.
Related, but I'd say Falcon Heavy is. Especially if you add in the dual booster landings.
Especially in situations like this where it's quite possible it would cost less to go back to the basics of better pay and training to create willing workers. Maybe the initial cost was less than what they have to spend to improve things, but add in all the backtracking and cost of mistakes, I doubt it.
That explains it. I read the title and wondered how they are doing prethought crime.
Understanding the variety of speech over a drive-thru speaker can be difficult for a human with experience in the job. I can't see the current level of voice recognition matching it, especially if it's using LLMs for processing of what it managed to detect. If I'm placing a food order I don't need a LLM hallucination to try and fill in blanks of what it didn't convert correctly to tokens or wasn't trained on.
