I've wondered this too. I've seen someone make a COVID data library but I thought about how much more difficult it would be to learn the library instead of just importing and manipulating the data.

My best thought is that it saves time to import, it saves visual lines which may make it easier to understand what is code ripe for modification and code that shouldn't be changed.

Not necessarily. I listen disproportionately to popular songs by popular artists most of the time.

If spotify gives me a recommended suggestion, it's probably worth it to the aspring artist over trivial payment.

The big money is shows.

Unfounded and there are counterexamples.

This causes a huge disaparity of wealth which is often exploited by another politician.

I've become a polymath and I never expected it. 4 years mechanical design Engineering, 3 years electrical design Engineering, and after 12 years casually Programming I got my first full time Programming job.

I have no idea what my next job will be.

I think Engineering, but I feel like that is a waste of my new Programming skills.

Newsletters?

I do studies and publish them free.

I have a 0.5% spam rate, which is unacceptable according to the guardians of email.

Using Facebook/twitter/YouTube to notify people of updates is at danger of getting blocked/censored.

If I can prove an employee of the company is posting it but acting like a genuine person, can I do that?

Fix the source of the problem.

I imagine this drug can uncover the problem and help the person solve it.

Regulatory Capture at it's finest.

I'm getting a vibe that this may be the end of California dominance.

I still think we are a decade away from this technology being implemented.

I imagine with OCR advances (and similar) it would make more True Positives, eliminating the need for a worker.

If a worker still needs to check an isle it almost defeats the purpose.

I don't understand this. If I spend my life designing bridges I still have to prove it with math. What kind of medicine is not science but "hands on"?
