But why bother holding back in the first place. If this is whistleblower information like Boeing safety issues, there's no point in setting up a dead man's switch. You want to release it all immediately in the first place, because keeping it to yourself undermines the point of blowing the whistle
With whistleblower information, why hold it back in the first place? Wouldn't it be better to release it immediately if they might kill you either way?
From a project management perspective, if this feature was causing frequent test failures and required extra developer time to regularly debug these failures, then removing the feature is cheaper than maintaining it.
If very few people use a feature that has a measurable maintenance cost, then it would make sense to remove it.
It seems unlikely that new features or updates would affect this one, but we don't know. It hardly seems worth lamenting though, since we've already left Reddit.
As someone who has had 8 different cats over the years, I can verify this is not necessarily true.
In my experience it usually meant the cat preferred running water over standing water in a bowl. Sometimes it meant the cat didn't like the size or shape of their bowl.
Sometimes it means your cat is a defiant nut who doesn't like things you put out for him, but will gladly drink out of the dog's bowl, a glass of water, or the toilet.
O'Brien didn't do much improvising on the Enterprise. It was a big reason why he took the position at ds9, he wanted something that actually took cleverness and ingenuity to make work.
Like a hodgepodge of Cardassian and Federation technology.
Incidentally, Rom was the one making makeshift solutions more of the time. O'Brien had resources available to solve his problems, but Rom learned by using whatever materials he had on hand.
Voyager, in contrast, at least had the recycle bin enabled.
I would remind you that it seems to be very common in Star Trek episodes to forget how reading data works. When the doctor was first outgrowing his program, they had to use up the "diagnostic hologram"'s program to repair his. Apparently they didn't understand backups at the time. And when Ed Begley jr downloaded a bunch of data from Voyager (including the Doctor) it deleted the original.
On the other hand, the existence of the backup Doctor in the Warship Voyager episode shows that they finally figured out a way to copy data without destroying the source.
Gelsinger was hired as a known long time engineer, rather than as a business expert. I would trust his numbers from an engineering perspective, even though I was laid off under his rule
I'm my experience the scaled sort just has the same problem only the opposite. You end up with a feed full of mostly brand new posts in empty communities.
Either a dozen posts by a moderator of one community, or a single user posting the same thing to a dozen vaguely related communities.
Not that it helps people who literally can't afford it... But dental "checkups" are primarily about doing the cleaning, which is for preventing issues before they get that big. Identifying existing issues is secondary, but the regular dental appointment is doing more actual work than your typical physical examination.
Which is why most dental plans cover regular cleanings entirely, but you need to pay out of pocket for any other work you want. They would rather pay the entire cleaning bill every 6 months than pay part of your root canal once.
Uh... How is it a distraction? It's the same problem
