And what does the language matter anyway when you can now type in pseudocode into Copilot and ask it to form perfect equivalent code in any language?

That's a point in favor of their humanity, technically.
Turn off anonymous cowardice before complaining that people won't debate you, you two.
In the long term, the goal is for ISPs to use NAC/TNC to interrogate your computer for Trusted Computing compliance, and deny you any internet access whatsoever if your machine isn't compliant.
You said home ISPs sought to deploy Trusted Network Connect about 20 years ago. It hasn't happened. What's holding it up? The rise of mobile devices, smart TVs, and other devices incompatible with the remediation means available in quarantine?
Propaganda is always easier when you're armed with a bloody good point. So try to not let the enemy have those.
The reason people go for less effective filters is that it takes less force to push air through them, which lets you put more air through it with the same force/noise. The filters have a similar particle profile, they are all very good at stopping tiny particles and very good at stopping larger particles, and comparatively worse at particles between 0.1 and 0.3 microns. It's just that a HEPA grade filter stops 99.7% or more of those hardest particles, whereas a MERV 13 filter (the most common furnace-grade throughput-optimized filter grade) stops 85%.
People who haven't looked into it probably imagine that there exists some small size of particle which HEPA stops but non-HEPA filters let through. But that isn't so. All particles which gets stopped by one gets stopped by the other, the difference is just at what rate - and the smallest particles are actually easier to stop (something to do with Brownian motion)
Not anything with "ionization". Ionized air is a cute name for ozone. Ozone causes all the problems to your lungs that you clean air to avoid (well, except COVID infection I guess).
I wouldn't go for UV either since it either produces ozone or is quite bad to get exposed to depending on frequency range.
Get an air filter with high throughput. HEPA is standard, but many people argue that lower grade filters with higher throughput can be more noise efficient.
Hard to have sympathy with Elsevier, but this reeks of a failed COVID snake oil get-rich-quick schemer blaming someone else for not succeeding.
If likes and boosts are overrated, then is there a way to find others' posts about a topic or to get more replies to my posts?
There were such people on TV too, if you watched the right (wrong) channels. Often music show hosts. The director wasn't prescient, he just was in touch with a trashy culture which hadn't quite hit mainstream yet.
That's interesting, because the main thing I've heard about him is that he did turn into a dickhole, having a reputation for being extremely cynical in his pursuit of clicks and profit and abusive to his staff.
Also fighting among themselves. Don't see this mentioned yet, but "Round Hill Music" is a copyright troll, a private equity roll-up buying up music catalogs to "monetize them" in ways like this. Independent music publisher my ass. No creative endeavor whatever is served by money accumulating to this entity.
That was an infamously bad ruling, and a good reminder of how the court system actually works when a judge thinks you're some long-haired furriner freak.
It's cargo cult logic. The rules only matter when the outcome doesn't. Everyone has a good impression of the court system until they come in contact with it.
Tunng, "The Wind-up Bird" sampled two lines from the film. They were apparently forced to take them out.
Copyright estates do far more damage than any book scanning project.
All these books have ISBN numbers, the article says so. So no, they're not out of copyright, they are all relatively "new" books (post 60s). The article tries to argue they could still have sentimental value, have unique margin notes etc. but odds are these are books no one would have shed a tear for.
