Important context that the bot misses:

The Times is only explaining that this video is not of the projectile that struck the hospital. They are not claiming to know the source of that one, only analyzing this video to disprove that it supports Israel’s claims.

“Multi-person” doesn’t do it justice. The battleships are designed to be run with a deck crew of 16+. Submarines 8, and destroyers 12+.

It’s going to be a major task of coordination for these things to be run. I’ve seen players have a hard time coordinating tanks, and that’s usually just a driver and a gunner.

Just finished watching this.

I’m not sure how I feel about it. They did well enough at creating some tension but the overall story and resolution just felt lacking.

The idea behind a thriller like this, in my mind, is usually for you to discover the solution to the problem alongside the characters. Misdirects are fine but to have information completely unrelated to the solution revealed right at the end as though that is how you should solve it really hurts the vibe.

The consistent flashbacks also show that they needed to do something to try to help guide the audience to an answer. In the end it isn’t a reasonable conclusion with the information presented. It’s meant as more of a “haha gotcha!” outcome.

I can’t remember the exact use case but I did submit a PR at a previous job that used $$ and not a single senior developer questioned it

My first professional experience was with BitBucket so I’ve never had a problem with it. There were a few times we couldn’t roll fixes immediately because of outages but that’s expected with most software to be fair.

KPIs are often shit and management is often ill-equipped to be reading and assessing KPIs but that’s on management, not on Atlassian.

“Anonymous” is a super broad term in tracking. All it means is that you are given a unique ID by Facebook while they track you. But that ID is the same across any site that integrates Pixel. So they have a metric ton of your browsing data tied to the same ID even though it’s across a few dozen or hundred websites. They also use that same ID when you’re on Facebook itself, so they can serve ads based on that ID instead of your Facebook account. It helps them to skirt some privacy requirements while still building a super detailed profile of you.

Something important to note is that this is being shared through Facebook’s Pixel service.

Pixel is similar to Google Analytics, but Facebook is also more aggressive in forcing companies to use Pixel, and what’s even worse is that any data shared with Pixel can be made available to other companies very quickly and easily.

From a marketing standpoint it’s brilliant because it gives you the chance to see what other websites you may share audiences with and how to convert some of that.

From a privacy standpoint it’s a nightmare, and the fact that the data you’re entering onto a website is tracked by it and accessible is a huge problem that needs to (but won’t) be addressed. I really wish that there wasn’t such a large population of people who have just latched onto Facebook because they are a plague to privacy.
