One could comment about Brexit in the same way. There were a myriad of reasons to stay in the EU, which are becoming more apparent each passing week. But good propaganda will help turn the minds of the disillusioned into thinking that there will be nothing but unicorns and chocolate cake for one and all of only the pesky EU wasn't in their way.

Actually many countries have similar systems in place. For instance Spain's costs around 500,000 EUR (and then you must live in Spain for the next 10 years)

The question then comes, where would one go to learn the fundamentals-and what are they now?

Being someone who was ahead of the game in css 15 years ago, but not having touched it since - where would one go to understand the new fundamentals and options available?

I'd blanked lotus notes from my mind. As an ex Notes developer, you're bringing back horrible memories.

I am infuriated by people who take little sips of a drink. The intense sucking around (primarily a hot tea or other hot liquid) but that pursed lip sucking sound destroys my will to live (and in a way that wants me to take everyone with me.)

I found electrical engineers to be similar.

Computer science degree holders were mostly lacking ability in my experience.

But I wouldn't count anyone out by their degree.

Punishment should be due only when actual proveable facts can be shown. Otherwise it's just rampant speculation which just feeds into sometimes political power moves. We already have enough of that going on.

Surely that can be easily waved away in the minds of an ignorant by saying it's just a shiny rock, crashed satellite, ice patch or some other silly nonsense.

> Their cover-up of the true scale of the problem (lab leak or not) made it hard for politicians in other countries to lock down quickly. It helped it spread intentionally to multiple countries and by then it was too late.

I disagree. The actions from a lot of countries were absolutely lacking, even when they could see how bad it was given both China's data, and Italy, Israel's initial incidents.

China locked down super hard towards late February/mid-March.

During this time there was countless reports about the "ridiculous" and "draconian" lockdowns that occurred in China. The West basically pointed fingers, laughed, and said we'd be fine. And yet they're still not.

> If they were blasting their sirens early in 2021 instead of covering it up we might have had swifter border closures etc.

I agree that even earlier warning would have been good. I just don't see it changing anything. Countries only started to take it seriously when it really started to affect them. They didn't want to risk a political/ financial hit on taking the measures that were needed, and they paid for it.

I'd also be interested in this given my failed experience with Google ads

Exactly this. It's to measure the nuances between designs to see if they improve user interaction.

If you're at the AB stage you should have a fairly mature prduct where you're optimizing to move forward from the low-hanging fruit customers.

I'm pretty sure she was caught for tax avoidance and/or corruption. Hence why she was locked up for a while.
