with 12 launches in 3 years at a 58 percent success rate and zero orbits, and a requirement for 20 successful full orbit launches in 2 years. Musk has a reputation for hubris masking actions. This is not the same as using a LM. Wake me when they can auto land something unmanned on the moon.

than the fake shift points in their car CVTs.

Each LMS has some amazing features and some features that make you want to go back to stone tablets.
Canvas was the first LMS we used. They always spoke about report card creation, but we got tired of waiting.
So another platform after a decade. Which swore they could import standard LMS exported content, but nope.
Back then it was a choice between roll-your-own Moodle, branded/hosted Moodle, Blackboard - experienced users said please no - and Canvas.
We were impressed by the test and backup instances, and that they were willing to try moving into K-12.
And that Canvas was built as a project after gauging dissatisfaction with existing platforms. Mostly Blackboard.
Problem? Invoke your backup instance. Not sure how something is going to fly? Try the test instance.
Working with others who have had Google Classroom - still no test instance, backups are third party, no student view.
Yes, the core of GC is free, but you're still getting mission-critical software from an ad company.
I've not kept up since we switched, but as bad as this is, this is an impressively long time to go without a crippling event.

some HOA demigod decides its their job to restrict query contents.

that Amazon will try ANYTHING to avoid paying an actual person a sustainable livable wage.

It still runs Windows.
Windows users are not asking for a slightly cheaper machine.
They are asking for Windows to get better.

WWDC 2005. Jobs reminds devs that working in XCode has real benefits, in this case hitting the âoelittle toggle switchâ to build the Intel version of your PPC app. Theo Gray and his lead Mac dev Rob take the stage to show how Mathematica got ported in minutes. Very cool clip. Then they have Adobe exec come out and say how excited they are for Mac on Intel, thanks, gotta run. Alas, Adobe rolled their own, and in fact it was a year before they had Photoshop running on Intel.

Letâ(TM)s just call them what they are, dopamine delivery devices.
In which case no idea is too far out in order to monetize what goes through them.

When they went from tickets with only the exit ID on them, to tickets that were time and date stamped. Somebody at the turnpike authority decided it would be a good idea to figure out the time between getting the ticket and paying, and considering at a speed violation if the time was too short. That idea did not last long.

Was a free directory assistance program that was also a training program for Google voice recognition. When they had enough data, they canned the service.

Yet millions of people believe itâ(TM)s a good bet to play 1 in 36,000 odds and happy to win a hundred bucks.

to the early days of app stores where there were five useful apps and 20 others that would pretend to pour beer out of your phone into a glass. Also, virtual cats. And fishtanks.

your dad was trying to use the intergalactic modem to contact Earth. I swear, you kids. . .

Some of us were around in 1974 for the US year round DST experiment.
It was not pretty. It was not safe. It was so dark at school bus stops, that many stores and even McD were giving out packs of reflective stickers for kids to paste on their clothes, shoes, and bookbags so they could be seen.
Just keep standard time year round. Happy farms, zero real harm, no more changing, no more kvetching about changing twice a year.

This rings true. Assembling a RPi into a working computer, printing a case, sussing out power, cables, setup os, add software, shows them the whole shebang and takes away the monolithic masque nature of current devices. Some problems are solved in code, some in hardware, some in pressing the right button. And they can take any path or part of this that they glom onto. Cuts through platform worship and slowly builds confidence that they have agency as they work through getting everything done.
