Certainly many others would have tried to invent something like the web.

HyperCard predated the web browser and had the concept of easy to build pages that linked. Lots of people were working on ways to deliver apps over the Internet.

I think in some alternative timeline we'd still have a lot of interactive content on the Internet somewhat like the web, but probably based on different technology. Maybe more proprietary.

You get to choose how your 401k is invested, though. The only difference is a tax advantage.

The advice is just: save money, let it grow using compound interest, use tax laws to your advantage.

There's no "trust the government" in that advice.

Are you trying to illustrate the point?

It wasn't 200, it was 2000.

And while most did not carry guns, they brought other weapons and armor, and used improvised devices as weapons. And some did bring guns. Source: https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2021/07/28/politics/armed-insurrection-january-6-guns-fact-check/index.html

Thank God they were poorly organized and that the capitol police resisted...but it's a complete lie to say it was 200 unarmed people.

This is all on video! This isn't a matter of opinion!

I think there are different aspects to it.

Amazon’s delivery service is better than ever. You get products in half the time, with less packaging, and fewer miles traveled to deliver it to you, without any significant increase in delivery fees.

Price is still competitive when you take into account delivery cost and speed. If you don’t care about those, Amazon isn’t the cheapest.

Search and reviews are down the tubes. It’s like Amazon no longer cares if their site is overrun with crap products as long as people are buying them.

Amazon still works great if you only buy name-brand products that are fulfilled by Amazon.

It explains the answer is 4 before the 5 minute mark.

Part of the reason is because it goes into the story of the SAT being wrong and a student being the one to catch it, which I found interesting.

After that it mathematically proves it several different ways and then shows how it relates to some real problems in astronomy.

Those are all protocols for accessing an entire calendar or sharing your whole calendar, not for general-purpose inviting one user to one event.

Doesn’t that also mean that ONE malicious person can get traffic off their local street or hurt a competitor’s business?

Just like moderating Lemmy, effectively policing user-generated content is a huge challenge.

I don’t think we know that yet, and I think the discovery will be interesting.

How many reports were there? Were they credible? What other sources of truth did Google consult in deciding to ignore those reports?

Google gets lots of reports and needs to filter out spam, and especially malicious reports like trying to mark a competitor’s business as closed, or trying to get less traffic in your neighborhood for selfish reasons. It wouldn’t be reasonable for Google to accept every user suggestion either.

So if Google reached out to the town and the town said the bridge is fine, then it’s not Google’s fault. If they ignored multiple credible complaints because the area was too rural to care about, that might be negligent.

Sure they do. Look at all of the posts from my neighbors on Facebook and Nextdoor every time a developer tries to build an apartment building instead of a single family home in our neighborhood.

Violent crime is lower today than the 90’s.

Wasn’t she an unknown, while they were all famous stars, though?

The same happens today.

“The cast of Moana earned a total of $56 million. Auli’i Cravalho, who voiced the title character, made $200,000. Dwayne Johnson, who voiced Maui, earned $21 million. Temuera Morrison, who voiced Moana’s father, earned $2 million.”

I’m not excusing any of the ways they abused Garland. But it made her a star and she earned far more in future roles, just like Cravalho now commands a much higher salary.

Rotten Tomatoes has both a critic score and an audience score.

If your pick has a low critic score but high audience score, that means it was formulaic or unoriginal but probably lots of fun.

Movies with a high critic score and low audience score are usually more artsy, film-festival stuff.
