A different context, but I think this is actually a pretty good rule for software engineering. A number of times I was sure a problem was someone elses fault, only for them to find my own silly mistake that I was overlooking. Sometimes the opposite also happens to me. Now I really make sure and typically find the actual root cause of problems before I suggest someone else caused it.

Well there wouldn't be much point to the Great Chinese Firewall if lots of uncontrolled information was flowing in and out through social media.
I could understand that. But, with a bit more context from the article (that I should have included), it's talking about the criminals that are targeting specific individual children to assault them.
When a parent is anxious about the child enough to install a bloody tracking app. The parents is giving the data about the child to the criminals.
That sounds unlikely and more paranoid than the parents who would install those apps... How many criminals are going to data brokers to track their child targets?
I heard about this before and from memory, that's how this started. People were researching why adult teeth weren't growing and were looking for what could make them grow.
Sometimes it's not so easy to fire up a GUI, like when you ssh into another machine.
Reminds me of these guys trying to grow brain cells to play doom
Why would you have 30 days in those months? I'm a fan of having exactly 4 weeks each month (28 days), across 13 months. Then every month is the same. If the 1st is on a Monday, then the 1st of every month will always be a Monday. You just need to add a leap week in every now and again.
Fixing a leaky tap isn't going to help much during a flood. I don't know the numbers to be making any kind of judgement call and of course every little bit help. But sometimes a small issue really is so insignificant that fixing it has no noticeable impact in the bigger picture.
Often it can even be a great way for companies to look like their doing something to help and distract from the fact that they're the ones causing the bigger problem.
I haven't tried with this, but maybe it's easy to host it locally. That's what I do with the stable diffusion web UI
