The big improvement has been image recognition on produce. It used to be you needed to either know the produce code, or navigate a terrible menu system. Nowadays, you can just put stuff on the scale, hit the camera icon, and have it show you a few possibilities, which is almost always correct.

There was also a long period where the anti theft system would trigger if you breath on the bagging area, and require a staff member to unlock it. They seem to have toned that down a lot. Even when it triggers, it just nags you without locking anything.

Russia's invasion didn't help, but hasn't seemed to trigger major proliferation concerns. In particular, Ukraine has no given any indication of pursuing nuclear development as a result. Indeed, doing so would put their much needed military aid at risk. All indications is that other countries that feel threatened by Russia are making similar calculations.

In contrast, Iran pursuing a nuclear strategy is very much on the table. We've established that their ability for conventional self defense is woefully inadequate; their proxy network has been severely degraded; and their prospect for a diplomatic solution has been repeatedly undermined.

If Iran does get nukes, that could be a catalyst for others in the region to do so as well.

So he's an anchor baby? The reason we need to repeal birthright citizenship?

The problem is not risk. It is cost. Climate change means that the cost maintaining human infrastructure where we built it has become higher than we want to pay. And regulators and politicians have prevented insurance companies to raise rates to match the increased cost.

Ultimately, there are 3 ways out of this:

1. Move. Either have a government buy out program for at risk areas; or stop insuring new construction or substantial repairs. Your home was totalled by a hurricane for the second time this decade? Here's your insurance payout; but don't rebuild there because we will not insure you

2. Build infrastructure to reduce costs. This could be more regionally appropriate building codes. Forest management. Waterworks. If we are willing to spend the resources, we have a surprising ability to bend local environments to our will

3. Pay the increased cost.

This has been solved for over a decade. Include a linter and static analysis stage in the build pipeline. No code review until the checkbox goes green (or the developer has a specific argument for why a particular finding is a false positive)

I'm going to take this as an opportunity to point out that bees are a type of fish in California.

Looks like someone got redpilled.

~the red pill is estrogen~

Because ethnonationalism is a coherent ideology.

12 to 15 months is the standard schedule, but if you are concerned about being in a measles hotspot, talk to your pediatrician about an earlier vaccination. The current CDC guidance is for infants between 6 and 11 months to get one dose of the vaccine before international travel [0]. Assuming the mother was vaccinated, young babies will inherit the immunity from her for the first few months of their life.

[0] This is in addition to the standard 2 dose vaccine schedule. So such children will end up with 3 doses instead of the normal 2.

I'm don't know any ultra-Orthodox but do have several friends/family that keep kosher, and all of them are satisfied with just keeping two sets of dishes (although some just have one set and are satisfied that washing them count).

The disposable dishes, cooking in foil, and such comes up when they visit someone like me who does not maintain a kosher kitchen (and even then, only one family actualy cares enough; but, as I said, they are not ultra Orthodox)

Tolerance, inclusivity, and integration.

To put this into perspective, the legal fact that "everyone"[0] is welcome in a given public school was not established until 1954 with Brown v Board of Education. And segregationists lost there mind over this.

In 1957, president Eisenhower had the 101st airborne division invade Little Rock High School, after Arkansas deployed it's national guard to block black students from entering.

[0] In terms of race. Restricting access to schools based on home address remains common, and has ended being used as a way to effectively segregate schools without violating Brown.

Of course they collect content you upload. How else do you think they maintain a chat history so people can see what was said while they were offline?

I see nothing in the privacy policy that says they can sell the data. There is, however, things that allow them to share the data with 3rd parties, including bot developers. Having developed Discord bots, I can tell you that you can get pretty unrestricted access (with the server owners cooperation) until you have been added to a bunch of servers (at which point you need Discord approval to get things like message content)
