Another factor is that more health-conscious people might be more likely to be vegetarian (but also practice other things that lower their risk of cancer)

Since the hosted email is the main use of GApps, I doubt that many people are using it for the "Office suite" (and that is still available with a Google account elsewhere anyway)

There was an interview with the CEO a while ago.

The number of cases exclude any people that was not tested (e.g. when tests were hard to obtain, those without symptoms or another reason to test, those sharing a household with the positive, who often was assumed to be positive without a test and isolated accordingly)

(There are enough non-death effects though that avoiding getting it and reducing the severity through vaccination is likely still worth it) (And more importantly, it causes enough problems to overwhelm the medical systems to such a degree that people suffering from other diseases or injuries can't be treated if cases numbers are left to increase indefinitely with no attempts to mitigate the severity)

This estimates an IFR of between 0.1 and 1.5%, depending on the area. (It was likely a lot higher in the early days before treatments like dexamethasone, monoclonal antibodies, etc were figured out that what it is currently)

They have the option....

(Classic proxies are useless for caching HTTPS, at least without intrusive tricks to break the encryption)

If they give unlimited data, the risk of usage patterns changing should be that of the ISP.

Charging the content provider is unfair - they did have influence about the ISP that the users use.

It seems like encouraging users of those ISPs to move to others should quickly stop the demands. "In order to view content in HD, please using a different ISP" or surcharges for users of those ISPs.

The users pay for access to certain speeds. Charging the other side for it as well is unfair.

(And with a global interconnected grid one of the issues are that some times during a day there is a lot less populated areas in sunlight than at other times)

Interconnecting grids might help coving some parts of the gaps... It might mean inefficient transmission over huge distances though...

Solar power is ideal for some things. Air conditioning, water hearing - air cons are often needed to counter the heating of the sun and water heating can easily be done any time of the day if the storage is decently insulated.

Using it for everything is much harder, but it might deal decently with the increase in load during the day, which helps if some sources don't like changing their output...

Here sone of the Coca Cola bottlers now have returnable plastic bottles. (The 2l ones are new. Some of the 1l and 1.25l glass returnables were replaces with thicker plastic ones). It is the exception though and the vast majority of drink bottles can't be returned.

I'm not aware of any programs to reuse packaging for anything outside beverages either - shampoo, yogurt, condiments, etc...

It seems like making bottles a bit more durable and reusing them is much cleaner and economical than recycling or disposal...

(Standardising packaging would allow different brands to reuse each other's packaging as well, but that can be tricky...)

Reused bottles will reach end of life at some point though...

This is the AWS hosted service (formerly "AWS ElasticSearch Service") based on OpenDistro for ElasticSearch adding OpenSearch and being renamed.

Slightly new, but certainly not unexpected after OpenDistro was renamed to OpenSearch (They basically changed the name and added OpenSearch 1.0 as an option)

Possession of stolen property is a crime. If you see a too-good-to-be-true deal and don't demand proof-of-purchase you take the risk....
