    That's fine. As long as the sensor is available the user can expose it. I think this is a pretty cool idea, and would yield more accurate measurements than estimating based off of …

    I think that's exactly what OP was trying to say: Instagram WhatsApp, etc. footers/splash screens will now read "a Meta company."

    Input validation is more general and helps mitigate other types of vulnerabilities, such as overflows and other injection attacks.

    Why not just split the assets and the code, have the code reference a version of the assets, which are on a separate server and only fetched when needed?

    You cannot be serious about your argument while still being supportive of these changes.

    These units seem _incredibly_ low to me. Your skin can generate almost 3000 IU in just 15 minutes on the right day. Many doctors even recommend treatments of 150,000 IU or more, in…

    I mean... if you go that route then I would say Kotlin isn't really ready to be used as a production language in most places due to the severe lack of tooling, especially when it c…

    There's the theory of Vitamin-D deficiency. It would make some sense given NYC's climate and time of year. In LA, people likely are exposed to the sun year round. It would be inter…

    That's interesting-- I hadn't heard that sugar or salt might counter satiation. I have seen a bit of correlation between sugar intake combined with fat intake, though. Which makes …

    I've had similar experiences in Russia. Well, at least with some of the municipal networks. Oddly enough, most cell networks seemed uninhibited.

    This isn't always true, though. History of full of examples of people returning to "wrong" ideas only to find them not wrong at all.

    Doesn't copying device data to another device, such as a laptop or desktop, do that? I mean... it's not cloud based, but I _thought_ it was a full local backup.

    Even Mountain View has these issues. Not to as near of a degree as say SF, Oakland, or Berkeley, but almost all of the above I've witnessed in Mountain View. So, I wouldn't say OP …

    Or it's a random selection from a vetted pool of individuals. Or it's an elected position from a selection of random individuals. There are other alternatives than just elected vs …

    It would be somewhat balanced if there wasn't a cap on the number of representatives and there was 1 rep per N population. But that's not the case. So even in the House there is an…
