The numbers look really odd with scotch and bourbon being down but the whiskey industry itself being slightly up. I'd guess more people are drinking local brands with no tariffs. That makes a down affect for the countries that were exporting.

I have to disagree, AMP showed that even Google had an internal conflict with the results of WHATWG.. It's naturally quite hard to reach agreements on a subset when many parties will prefer to go backwards to everything but there situations like the first iPhone, ebooks, TV browsing, etc, where normal people buy simpler things and groups that use the simpler subset achieve more in total than those stuck in the complex only format.

(There are even a lot of developers who would inherently drop any feature usage as soon as you can get 10% of users to bring down their stats on caniuse.com to bellow ~90%.)

You can certainly bet you followed that advice correctly, now what are the odds you could test a what-if like that in sufficient depth?

Pretty funny stuff. The democrats want to be angry about any job loss and the Republicans especially love the negative externality businesses so no one wants to consider the weight of the good in ruining Jim Beam?

I personally think Trump has a lot more in common with Maduro than he would like to advertise. He was essentially from the social left but realized the right is more gullible.

Unpaid the great generation for the work they did. Do newer generations deserve payment for theft (squandering investments, privatizing, destroying education and safety nets)?

Mostly..

App migrations that may fail and need a rollback have the problem that you may not be allowed to wipe any transactions so you may want to be putting data to a parallel world that didn't migrate.

Sorry but 1000 jobs sounds tiny to me.. Probably more people die jim beam related deaths or at least have major related health issues in any given year.

Sure but you basically need a different ecosystem to bring in a popular package and not expect to end up with these trivial libraries indirectly through some of the dependencies.

I think its getting clearer that much of the cloud uptime/safety has been luck and a lack of true hostility. If China were in a posture like the hermit state it would have deleted Microsoft cloud data wholesale and the US based firm would have focused it's energy on restoring its priority customers. I wouldn't bank on the US not getting that hostility out of China in the next 3 years.

I've not really seen that much of a problem with Linux drivers being available recently while the quality problem of windows drivers being unreviewed code seems like its partly addressed for central monopolies but still in the peripherals if you'll pardon the pun.

Don't most people who take supplements just take 10X the RDA? It is still a tiny amount of supplement that is safer and costs a fraction of the indoor tanning or traveling often to somewhere with adequate Sun.

Is this taking efficiency gains into account? I would expect 10X efficiency increase every 3 years given Moore's Law and the hardware appropriate algorithms tendency.

I always thought there weren't enough boys in Lord of the Flies for the social dynamics, but still it is supposed to be more than 6, enough to break into two groups of the size in this example..

That's more a small business owner perspective. For a middle manager rattling some cages during a week of IBM downtime is adequate performance while it is unclear how much performative response is necessary if mom&pops is down for a day.

Presumably, they were working before Microsoft came up and they needed to be embraced, extended and extinguished.

There is a clean bifurcation between just works and Microsoft compatible.

The arguments against seemed to show the weakness of frequentists in practical deduction.. It certainly could have been a domestic where the police already knew but weren't communicating it but otherwise most suggestions didn't match the statistics of the specific demographic/locations to compete with the anomaly of a total AWOL with good luck, nothing to lose and a connection to top academia who wasn't dead or in jail.
