I guess if, as this person says, the intended use is made clear then presumably so long as the original logs from which the report was generated are retained then there shouldn't really be an issue. Make your nice, digestible reports that normalise over a workday and give a more grand overview of progress, and if they smell a bit too rosy or you just sometimes need a more granular accounting of time then clients/bosses can request the original raw data from the contractor/employee. Maybe this software itself should include some ability to retain a log of the processing that was done so that the relationship between its generated reports and the source data can be more clearly audited if some kind of a trust issue arises.

The hope I guess would be that you make it clear that this is a more executive summary style of report that you've added as a courtesy because it's more useful in context and that's hopefully enough for whoever you're reporting to but if they want more transparency or detail it's all there for them too.

When tomatoes, olives, capsicum and zucchini are 'fruit' then the definition isn't serving it's purpose for anyone discussing cooking or eating or procuring those things. It's a different meaning of the word that's useful in particularly narrow settings but useless outside of those settings. The only reason people like to repeat the claims of 'technically a fruit' for various vegetables, outside of the context of maybe agriculture or scientific research or horticulture is because it's amusingly counterintuitive and contrarian which is exactly why it should be disregarded.

Pineapple remains the only sweet fruit I've ventured on a pizza but when you asked this my first guess would have been apple, especially because it pairs so well with pork so I'm surprised that made it to the bad idea category. Did anyone expand on why? I would have thought a pizza with almost any kind of pork but especially thick cut ham would be enhanced by a very sparing quantitiy of thin apple slices. I'd bet even some non-traditional cuts of pork might end up working well, like some thin strips of pork belly.

It's a tough job

I like to imagine your guest has a Lemmy account and was browsing while doing a fanless poop 💩

It also in more recent years had an update that messed with it's vcd playback ability. Don't remember exactly the problem but I had a rip of an old vcd and was pleased that it played it back no trouble, and even from the original disc too but then a couple of years later it changed so I had to do something to extract an mpeg2 stream or something to get it to work and it from then on had audio issues that had never been there before.

Weirdly enough I often find things playing back better in IINA than VLC even though as I understand it they're basically the same under the hood. I also find the reverse occasionally as well.

It's amazing how effectively just hearing this from someone who has firsthand insight can put it in perspective.

Further to that third point as well, there's probably also a question simply of opportunity. You could take the Munich situation as evidence of capability, but it may also have been opportunity plus capability. Intelligence seems like it's a pretty difficult game and perhaps the successes in operation bayonet had to do with fortunate and unlikely intelligence scoops that they have not luckedh upon this time around and can't rely upon as a strategy. Also, while I don't know much about the post-Munich assassinations, it sounds like they went on for over twenty years, didn't really take out many of the actually important, directly involved individuals and a lot of the people they would have logically wanted to target successfully went in to hiding out of their reach so if the strategic goal is to behead the organisation that carried out attacks as a defensive strategy to weaken their capacity to do it again, 20 years just to take out relatively minor unimportant figures isn't really going to work.

That said, it also looks, as many have stated, like "taking out Hamas" is more a convenient political smokescreen for a much more sinister goal so a very successful intelligence operation that rapidly took out all their leadership at once would actually run counter to their true objectives in this scenario.

This is not relevant to the story, but like, what the fuck is happening in this video? It looks like someone tried to artificially create a depth of field by rotoscoping Roseanne and adding a blur to everything behind her or.... something. There's definitely a matte around her that's occasionally flickering and fucking up. It's hard to say what exactly because it's so compressed, but there's also something else about that video as well (besides it's subject matter) that's just really weird.

Wow. That was fucked up.

I think he's famously at least eaten a lot of McDonalds.
