Why wouldn't it scale? (paper as a backup method like the used here in the article)

each voting district has the same number of people in it (as determined by census), more population means more districts means more election workers. if anyone district was compromised, then election workers/officials from other districts can come in and help.

For better or worse, a feature that many consumers desire, is Apple's vetting on software on the app store. It appears Facebook wants to bypass Apple's vetting procedures. Apple will then have to rely of Facebook to properly vet the game code for malware and other content restrictions, I think this is what the sticking point is going to be.

Don't see where WHO rejected Remdesivir, it does not appear to be an officially published position. I was able to find some news article about a WHO sponsored study that has not been peer reviewed or published in a scientific journal that states that Remdesivir appears to be ineffective, but it's not the same thing as rejection. If you have a source where WHO rejects, I would like to see it (preferably from the who.int website)

The article only showed one test results from a oneplus8, and it showed that the slowest iphone loop was still faster than the fastest loop from the oneplus8.

According to the article, The edges goes to iphone since even at its slowest, its faster than android, and at its fastest, its way faster than android. Would like to see more comprehensive tests though.

There are no national fire safety "rules". The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA.org) is a non-profit organization that publishes codes and standards that states or local governments may adopt in part or whole or with modifications.

The only Federal safety laws are like OSHA and PHMSA governing specific things, and they apply everywhere, not just federal land.
 

Imposing additional rules for "Big Tech" would just make it harder for smaller companies to become "Big Tech", thus cementing their positions and limiting potential compeition.

By the time a small company might find success and become big, they will suddenly have to figure out how to comply with the big tech rules, and Big Tech will have an incentive to make compliance as complicated as possible for the little guy.

The dispute is with developers, not consumers. MS is offering an ecosystem for developers to build apps that would attract consumers. Apple and Google will use it to show that developers are not "locked in" they have the option to develop for MS if they choose, therefore no monopoly.

By offering a competing app store, Apple and Google can point to MS and show that they are not monopolies and not anti-competitive. Developers who don't like Apple or Google can just develop for MS.

Spam and advertising are two subtly different things, and this call protect feature is designed to block unwanted spam calls. In fact, it appears that the basic call protect service is provided at no cost, and if you wanted some additional features like reverse number lookup, caller-ID and some more sophisticated call controls, then that is 4$ a month.

I don't think it's worth 4$ a month because spoofing caller-ID is the norm, so it useless.

How about if you offered the person $ to sign the voter identification envelope and give you the whole ballot package. you could send out mass mailings ahead of the ballot offering people money if they would just sign the envelope and mail it to you, or drop it off at a collection point and pick up their money at the same time.

Or your employer could mandate that you sign the envelope and send it to him or you will lose your job.

An actual polling place is "secure" in that you cannot just stand inside a polling place soliciting people to sell their ballot for the reasons you state above.

But will your python code still run in 10 years? (https://developers.slashdot.org/story/20/08/25/1958241/will-your-code-run-ten-years-from-now)

FORTRAN code from the 1970's will still compile and run on modern FORTRAN compilers.

A university charging each student 25-40k a semester, *still* needs to chase that federal money, and to do so, needs to add hundreds of thousands of dollars of admins just to do the paper work to get that money? It seems like they are just applying for federal money just to pay for the pleasure of filling out the paperwork.

With classes moving online, what do you need all those high priced administrators for? The faculty is what is providing the revenue, why would they cut them?
They can also cut all the sports faculty since you can't play sports from home.
