Yes, there is `Vec` that allows arbitrary length arrays, and iterators implement those other functions

I think epic braking the rules makes their case much stronger. If they say "Apple's rules are unfair" they have a much stronger case if they can show damages caused by Apple's unfairness. My guess this is just another example of them showing the courts that Apple cost them $X in lost revenue because they could no longer make any money on macOS.

The update was live for a couple hours, and I am sure a lot of people purchased the cheaper (against the rules) option. They now have an exact number to tell the courts how much they are loosing to Apple, instead of a hypothetical situation where Apple could argue that customers love apple pay and would use apple pay over 3rd party payment systems.

Epic cannot do anything to release updates and fix bugs on the macOS platform. Epic wants to continue to support their application on macOS - but because of a completely unrelated issue regarding an iOS application they can't. Are you suggesting that they aren't a victim of Apple's anti-competitive and draconian tactics?

Not saying this isn't important data, but at some point does 2FA make this an innefective method to spy on your citizens? If I have 2FA on my Amazon, if the CCP tried to get into it I would just get a notification with a code, and do nothing except maybe change my password. Additionally, there are probably all sorts of account logs saying "this is who logged in when from what IP address" that are associated with a lot of these accounts.

Direct access via the companies themselves is probably much more valuable today.

I think the fact that she is a western journalist who speaks out against the CCP makes a reasonable explanation that her account is more 'watched' then the average account.

Maybe I don't understand all the way, but I see this line of code in there:

`TraceLoggingUInt32(_rguiTimesApiUsed[GetConsoleAliases], "GetConsoleAliases"),`

Is that sending Microsoft all of my bash/zsh aliases? And what about `TraceLoggingUInt32(_rguiTimesApiUsed[GetConsoleTitle], "GetConsoleTitle"),`

If it works how most other Terminals I have used - that is going to send the name of the program I am running or host I am connected to to Microsoft. I think that is pretty invasive if you ask me.

> Changing to a BTreeMap instead of a HashMap in the LRU cache to optimize memory usage.

Can someone explain to me how BTreeMap is more memory efficient than a HashMap?

These are valid points, and it is important to figure out what changes in the model is causing such a dramatic change and scrutinize it more.

> The ability for science to change and adapt is what makes it so strong

To me this article is them _resisting_ change, looking for a reason NOT to accept it, because it goes against what they previously said. Maybe this is all to early, and in a year or so we will be seeing 4 or 4.5 degree predictions, but this article describes them trying to change their inputs to match previous answers, not getting new answers.
