Curious how much of her ill-gotten gains she will keep.


So was Dye behind the super-flat butterfly keyboard, too? ;)


26.1 feels significantly less laggy (UI frame rate), especially on low power mode, than 26.0.1. But it's still not back to 18.x level of performance. Battery seems to be improved on 26.1 over 26.0.1 also but that seems to be hardware-generation dependent.


Three and a half years ago nobody had ever used tools like this. It can't be a legitimate complaint for an author to say, "not my fault my citations are fake it's the fault of these tools" because until recently no such tools were available and the expectation was that all citations are real.


Then it’s just a poor analogy.


Apple's view on your situation is probably that you still bought / keep the Mac (not intended flippantly).


Awesome -- dozens of the top people in their fields have been working on the contamination problem and publishing about it for almost two decades.

    The curation team was integrated with mission design and operations from the beginning,
    as early as 2004 (section 3.0). That integration allowed curation-specific needs such as
    contamination knowledge to be incorporated into the mission design early, when adjustments had
    minimal cost impact. Not only did this early integration inform planning for sample
    characterization, cataloging, allocation, and the development of detailed sample handling and
    containment approaches; it was also an investment in the longer term needs of the community.
    Here we describe these preparations for OSIRIS-REx, as a reference for sample scientists and
    curators and as a model for future sample return missions.


That's pretty reasonable.


Also, what's the overlap here between people who believe a) the unborn have a "right to life" (or forced birth as some others call it, where the parent has no choice but to take the pregnancy to term and give birth), and b) those who think the parents have every right to decide not to vaccinate their children? If you believe (a), shouldn't you believe (not b)? And if you believe (b), shouldn't you believe (not a)?


Indeed. A lot of antivaxxers mockingly say "my body, my choice" but they are highlighting their own hypocrisy, not anyone else's. One critical difference between the cases is that pregnancy is not contagious.


Agree. Also I don't think any adults were forcibly vaccinated again their will, they just lost out on certain societal privileges.


For example:

People also hate how _slowly_ Python moves and complained forever about that. They also complained forever during the many years of 5.x PHP releases that PHP was moving too slow. It was only after Facebook forked first the runtime (HHVM) and the language (Hacklang) and showed how fast and advanced PHP could be made that the PHP team started accelerating. Which I think has been a boon to the community. This is all given away for free as open-source after all.
