Hot take:
Ive is a terrible designer who consistently let his idea of good aesthetics take priority over usability, durability, and repairability.
He's dead on about these products, but it's big talk from the guy responsible for the trash can Mac, magic mouse 2, butterfly keyboard, hockey puck mouse, etc.
Usernames are a thing now, so it's no longer necessary to share your phone number with other users.
Worth noting is that "good" database design evolved over time (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_normalization). If anything was setup pre-1970s, they wouldn't have even had the conception of the normal forms used to cut down on data duplication. And even after they were defined, it would have been quite a while before the concepts trickled down from acedmemia to the engineers actually setting up the databases in production.
On top of that, name to SSN is a many-to-many relationship - a single person can legally change their name, and may have to apply for a new SSN (e.g. in the case of identity theft). So even in a well normalized database, when you query the data in a "useful" form (e.g. results include name and SSN), it's probably going to appear as if there are multiple people using the same SSN, as well as multiple SSNs assigned to the same person.
I've had the same problem with HeliBoard learning garbage. I just changed my settings though, and I think it should help:
If you scroll all the way to the top again, you can manually manage the personal dictionary, including adding words you do want, and deleting any junk that was added by mistake, before switching that setting off.
I think to be fair, you've got to compare his before and after, rather than comparing him to anyone else.
I certainly wouldn't say he looks young, but I think he's on a better trajectory.
Someone testing on themselves is how we learned what causes and how to treat ulcers (the researcher earned a Nobel prize for giving himself an ulcer, and then treating it), among other things.
Controlled trials are great, but research has to start somewhere.
Flanders is self employed - he owns the Leftorium. There's a joke in this episode about not writing off the ink used to print receipts as a business expense, because he likes the way it smells. He can do his taxes when he wants.
Mario Kart was played for racing, and balloon battles. Diddy Kong Racing was all about Fire Mountain (the game where you capture the eggs).
Yeah, moving the table was my first thought - felt very much in the spirit of the show. I also expected the hose to have holes, and/or be blocked in the middle. Having a functional hose in the far left bucket felt too easy.
You may have missed "also." The comment does not suggest replacing the current list.
Worth noting, the existing list dies actually appear to cover both known working and known not working apps - apps that do not work have their names given in ~~strikethrough~~.
In college, in my intro to Java class, I had a program I'd written that I was trying to show someone. Every time I ran it (in Eclipse) it crashed. It had worked earlier, but was then consistently crashing. Looked at the stacktrace, looked at the code... No issues I could spot. After quite a while of poking around, with the file reverted to its original state and still failing, I did a select all, cut, paste (into the same file), and it started working again.
They updated the ride after the movies, so... It's kind of circular at this point.
