Close but no cigar. It’s also about collecting as little data as possible. Company can be sued or fined if a data collection is deemed excessive.

If we are pedantic, I’m not sure if “children cannot consent” is correct. Children at 16 are mature enough to give consent in legal context, we as a society just frown upon older adults mingling with them.

You’re the first person ever that was able to explain to me the difference and make me yearn for it.

My point is that the polls mentioned in the wiki seem to not be mentioning socio-economic systems, but the USSR country and it’s culture, as well as it’s dissolution (which was handled like shit in most of the countries AFAIK).

ex-Soviet citizens prefer Socialism.

That’s not exactly what the polls in the article were about though?

The article seems to be missing polling history from countries that don’t support it’s thesis, like Poland.

You might want to check out wikipedia.

That’s literally alternative medicine defined as per well, science. And you being silly doesn’t take from it. In the past, viruses were considered alternative medicine (quackery even), until they were proven to exist and work as in theory.

If you hit someone with a stick and that person gets cured of cold, it’s alternative medicine (you suspect there’s correlation or causation, and repeating the treatment during other incidents tends to have similar effect, i.e. when you hit more people they also get cured). When it’s proven that there’s causation between your action and the cure, then it’s medicine.

I’m not sure what are you trying to tell me.

That you agree with me that “alternative medicine = not proven to work, but I’m wrong somehow”?

That wiki article is very biased.

It also has problems distinguishing pseudo medicine (proven not to work) from alternative medicine (not conclusively proved or disproved).

I complain about popularity of fantasy romance vis a vis non-fantasy romance, and that now most published (or advertised) fantasy books are fantasy romance.

That genre is typically written for women, with female lead and is heavy in certain tropes.

That genre isn’t for me.

Am I a person that you’re ranting about OP? If not, could you point me to an article or opinion piece that you’re talking about, so I can read it and come back here?

I have access to the same information as you, so unfortunately, I don’t know.

The article literally says you will still be able to push books via Calibre etc, but won’t be able to download books into Kindle from PC.

Example: If you don’t have a WiFi at home, there is an option to connect Kindle via USB to your ethernet connected PC and download books from Amazon that way.

And this option is going away, as most people have WiFi.

Anywho, fuck Amazon (for other things, but not this one).

People who has been maintaining the kernel and weathered multiple fads are wary to see if new guards will “stick”, or just stay along for a year or five, disappear and leave the old guard with shit.

The answer is impossible to answer until you tell us more about your needs. Better choice considering what?

In general, untill you have terabytes of data or a significant amount of traffic (operations per second) database choice does not matter and you should be using cheaper option, where the cost should be assessed as a derivative of price of hosting, cost per operation, cost to deliver (how familiar you are with it).

When you have significant amount of data or traffic - only then you should worry about database kind or language. Until then this could be a premature optimization.

Isn’t it a bit… selfish for you to expect everyone everywhere know your fucking context? 88 means shit nothing in Europe and we’ve got the original Nazis here (except of course if you’re Nazi - they know about 88, common people don’t).

Same with 666. Ask an Indian what it means and he will tell you one more than 665.

I think this is the moment you’re overreaching.

Alternatively what you’re saying is that all gun manufacturers should go to jail for multiple counts of homicide.

The heck you’re talking about? There’s a ton of free resources to learn the basics.

https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/csharp official Microsoft learning resources.

https://dotnettutorials.net/course/csharp-dot-net-tutorials/ for C# basics and .NET framework (which is backend standard).

For game engines you need specific tutorials in those engines.
