I like it, but I like most Mtn. Dew flavors.

Definitely inspired by peach tea, if that helps.

The whole reason I got on YT Premium was because it was free with Google Play Music. I have real issues watch non-Premiun now, because I’ve always disliked advertising methods. (Not so much th ads, which can be entertaining, but just being shown content I didn’t request instead of the content I did request.)

Have you tried Sweet Lightning? It’s a KFC exclusive flavor that hasn’t escaped containment the way Baja Blast escaped Tace Bell.

Plaid effectively admitted to stealing your transaction history and selling it to the highest bidder in the past. There was a settlement and they agreed to not to that in the future

Just don’t ever share your password, and certainly not your banking password, and definitely not with Plaid.

I do or at least I have in the past. If the caller will answer my Google call screening, I’ll answer or call back.

There’s always been a issue of sample not matching population, and a variety of methods to correct for that. But, I will admit there is some limitations to that, and I don’t quite understand where the limitations are. (I love math, but I failed statistics once, and barely passed the second time. I prefer symbols and proofs and closed forms…)

While that is also my pet name for JD, keep in mind it is aspirational, not historic.

Nope. I don’t know exactly what happened there, but after ABC bought it, Nate was gradually phased out. He found alternative funding.

Sssh, Top Sneaky.

There are still people that distrust government as a general principle AND still believe the GOP is the party of “small government” so they will vote for whatever name is next to the R.

He’s not an idiot. He is funded by Thiel. He has been politically captured by authoritarian capitalism, so I’d be wary of any models he produced that aren’t independently audited for bias.

I think polls are useful, and the monte carlo simulation approach for turning them into a electorial vote probability is good, but there “too much” magic sauce left over for me to trust the outputs from Silver or 538.

Too redundant, just use S-exprs.

(Mostly joking, but in some cases…)

Most people never become auto-didacts. Most auto-didacts still benefit from formal training because above average gross performance can mask subtle mistakes until the mistake becomes root cause for a significant error.

Under significant pressure (like a well-written dramatic fiction, but almost never IRL), most doctors will be willing to perform a procedure without formal training, but under normal conditions, they know it is not worth the additional risk.

infosec.pub is pretty tolerant…

Counterpoint: Kung Fu Panda

I, too, want something to replace Google Maps inside Android Auto, which is the main place I use it. I like live re-routes around traffic.

Did you try Organic Maps?

Given that some films are getting post-release edits before they appear on streaming or physical media, it might be a good idea just from an archival perspective.

I’m not a good judge of piracy methods for consumption, as I am currently willing to pay their prices or do without.

Depends on the pay differential and other options. I think it’s less useful for positions in my career, but it’s not an absolute no.

I volunteered. So, no longer involuntary.

If you do have to do it, you can hit 1234 or any other 4 digits after the 911 and you will still be connected to emergency services.

Source: accidentally called 911 when trying to make an international call and not understanding when the phone system needed the 9 prefix (only for internal extensions).

I have been in meetings which people who thought the fact that a user could use a different font, even only intentionally, was “unacceptable”.

I hope those people aren’t directing the ship at YT, but could be.
