Huh, interesting.I imagine the "don't have to stop gambling to take care of another addiction" is more important than perfect scents.
I'm actually taken aback that smoking in indoor public places is still legal.I imagine if the demographic swings away from being predominantly smoking gamblers then casinos will react quickly to have isolated smoking rooms/areas
Yeh it is.Proving that a scientific theory is wrong means we don't understand enough about the thing. And we know we need to look at other theories about the thing.Proving things wrong as well as failed hypothesis is as important (even if it is disappointing) as proving things correct and successful hypothesis. It rules the theory out, and guides further scientific study.With published papers, other scientists can hopefully see what the publishing scientists missed.Scientists can also repeat experiments of successful papers to confirm the papers conclusion, and perhaps even make further observations that can support further studies.
Oh, they do have psychological manipulation in mind.There are 2 leading design types:No clocks anywhere, designed to be difficult to navigate out of, designed to make the passage of time difficult to tell.And open and bright with easy lines of sight, designed to allow gamblers to relax without leaving.
The former was developed by an ex-gambler that "turned their life around" into an architect that manipulates gamblers to gamble more. He studied the successful casinos, and gathered up all the techniques that makes gamblers gamble more.The open layout was developed in response to this, and solely concentrates on making gamblers feel relaxed (or able to relax).
But lighting, layout, smells, sounds... Everything is accounted for.Casino owners know the design of their casino is what makes gamblers gamble more
He is. But the people around him and controlling/handling him aren't idiots.It's either in project 2025, or some other republican playbook. Scattershot out a bunch of crazy news to swamp the news cycle and overwhelm everyone, then get to work doing the dirty stuff
That's just people not used to dedicated cycle paths.You would likely have as many issues of a pedestrian trying to cross a road and not seeing a cyclist, as you would travelling on a dedicated cycle path with an ignorant pedestrian.
It just needs everyone calling out people on cycle paths. They likely aren't even aware they are on it.
But that's a lot to read into a single picture. Maybe they have checked both ways, and know nobody is coming (like they would with cars on a road)
Edit:The 2 people further down don't look like they are crossing!
I can understand.We have some new dedicated cycle lanes in our city (I mean, they are a few years old now. But fairly unique in our country).I feel bad for the cyclists. They have a dedicated path, which pedestrians are super ignorant of (they are better marked than this picture).My parents think they are a menace when they visit, because they are unaware of them and get menaced by cyclists.Except, that's literally what roads are. They just grew up with roads and (even faster) cars.
So, I am understanding of the transition.And everyone needs to call everyone out over it. It will make everyone safer
Maybe it saves time, but I doubt it avoids errors.I would rather the time spent to develop this was spent on improving the plugin/extension/macro development ecosystem.I know they have an SDK, and I'm sure it's great.
But with MS Office, I can install Visual Studio, create a new VSTO plugin for what I'm targeting (excel, word, powerpoint, outlook etc), and get into coding. When I hit Play (as in run with debugger) it will launch the targeted application and build/hook in my plugin.It's literally idiot proof, until it gets to writing code (then it's c#).And Visual Studio is a decent IDE.The only thing really holding it back is the terrible documentation from Microsoft regarding the VSTO or Com Interop or whatever it's called. It's truely terrible, trying to figure out how to implement your idea.
Make Codium systems similar to Platform.io (which is for Arduino, ESP32 etc), except for your given office suite.Make it better than the Visual Studio VSTO experience.
That's what I really want.And more people to use it, of course. I'm so fed up of Microsoft crap
I remember when the first looks at (or poster of) the sonic movie came out, and it was ripped to shreds.A prominent visual redesign of sonic went viral, and - credit where credits due - the studio reworked the movie to adopt the changes.https://www.radiotimes.com/movies/sonic-the-hedgehog-design-changed/
I feel if it was something like "Swedish Prime Minister launches their own meme coin", it would be world news.Or maybe a country that pushes for their own produce to have Geographical Indication (like scotch or champagne) then churning out a bourbon.
I get that it's local to the US.But the US is also currently pissing on global politics with their irrational/misguided/ignorant tariffs, with a strong flavour of "returning jobs to the US".And the president of the US is now saying they will launch a Made In US phone for $400.And Made In US has to actually be made in the US (by their own laws), not just assembled there.
So maybe not actual world news, it does contribute to the global opinion/perception of the US government.
Another example would be a country that criticises another country for abuse of its own citizens, then turning around and abusing its own citizens. At least as I see it.
But I get your point. It's the US doing things to the US.
Yeh, but (to me) a hotspot is WiFi with internet access from a mobile device. Whereas tethering is sharing internet access from a mobile device via a cable (USB).Kinda like how WiFi doesn't mean internet access, despite so many people conflating the meanings.
Computer/laptops WiFi card is dead. Can't connect to an android hotspot if your WiFi isn't working.Thus, usb tethering. It's a wire, doesn't need a WiFi card. And the android device can then share ITS WiFi/Data connection through the USB cable
