I think you might have skipped over the 10,000+ years of strict feudalism, a shrouded theocracy pushing their century-spanning agendas, aristocracy through landed gentry, and a drug-addled transportation cartel, all overseen by a massive, monopolistic megacorporation that controls all trade, economic affairs, and commerce throughout the universe. And everyone's a drug addict if they can afford it.
But sure, at least they didn't have AI! lol!
In other words, Warhammer 40K but without any aliens to trigger a massive xenophobic response that removed all warlike guardrails.
Not known for deep understanding of high technology? The Catholic Church was behind the scientific discovery of The Big Bang through the Catholic priest (and astrophysicist) Lamaître. Mendel, the father of modern genetics, was an Augustinian friar. Steno, a Catholic bishop, formulated the foundational principles of stratigraphy, establishing geology as a formal science. Secchi, a Jesuit priest, was a pioneer in spectroscopy and the first to establish that the Sun is a star, creating the first stellar classification system.

Amazing. Building on the work of Galileo I see. How was Galileo received by the church yet?
Well, he was an honored guest of the Pope for a while. Then he made fun of his host in a published book while claiming that he had a proof when he just had a theory and was told to please stop claiming that his theory required a change in theological interpretations of the book of Joshua (but he might continue teaching his theory about terrestrial movements without claiming that they were necessarily true).
The problem with Galileo is that he did not yet have good enough evidence to assert what he was asserting (even though what he was asserting turned out to be true).
Visually impaired people use smartphones too. If the app isn't supporting the accessibility features of the platform, it should still be held liable under the ADA.
(Unfortunately it won't as was found when Southwest Airlines was sued over this. Congress hasn't updated the ADA to include web sites since the ADA precedes the web and so it wasn't enumerated explicitly. Also unfortunately, the GOP who have never been huge fans of the ADA have blocked any attempts at patching that hole.)
But check out the settings on your iPhone/iPad or Android device. Whole sections dedicated to accessibility, especially for the visually impaired.
Visual impairment was just my naive example - but maybe there’s a better one that still persists.
Regardless, maybe there’s a path to legislation forbidding smartphone requirements for huge monopoly businesses like national professional sports leagues. I’d hate for ownership of a consumer device to become codified as a requirement for participation in activities like this.
Not to speak for the other person -- but I think the biggest reason is that these facilities are often constructed with public money and public resources and therefore owe some degree of public accessibility back to the community at large.
Increased regulatory scrutiny is typically standard for all government granted monopolies. There are significant issues with this arrangement but it isn't because of the increased regulation, but usually the lack of it!
If the Executive Branch doesn't care about the Constitution and inconvenient laws when directing the law enforcement agencies under its control, Congress doesn't hold the executive to account by either withholding funds or threatening impeachment, and the SCOTUS majority doesn't try to rein in these acts while seeming to lack the ability to enforce its own decisions, the words printed on the Constitution are just useless ink.
Elections have consequences, and we're all paying them. Some paying a lot more than others.
Day by day it feels less and less like regular data modeling and more like a debate with Jordan Peterson where you argue for ten hours what a "name" is.
Eventually you end up having to make choices and deal with the consequences. Otherwise Jordan Peterson would have you chasing your tail for days about what a "choice" is, and nothing would ever get done.
tl;dr: just make your best guess and always include an extra "notes" column where things can get leaky.
Not days necessarily, but I think quite a bit of time should be spent data modeling, yes. Before you’ve ever touched the keyboard, it’s very helpful to attempt to model the problem on paper or a whiteboard. You quickly find problems with your initial guess that way.
Notes / data / extra et. al columns are the worst, as a DBRE. People inevitably shove various shit into them over time instead of making an effort to properly fix past mistakes, and at some point, they practically contain their own table.
The point is about the declarative abstraction and how it's useful for people who don't know what "React Three" might entail, not to enumerate all the frameworks that have it under a submission about "React Three Ecosystem".
His supporters wouldn't accept the results even if that came to pass. Remember, these are folks who honestly believe to this day that US tariffs are paid by other countries.
You cannot convince someone of anything if their identity is defined by it being wrong.
Even being vaccinated doesn’t completely protect you from the cognitive effects of Covid. Everyone who’s had it has some level of permanent brain damage.
Yes, of course, nothing is 100%. But vaccines reduce both the severity and duration of illness, thereby reducing the risk and severity of brain damage.
