How else do you want to handle a CEO owning stock? From his perspective: He sees hard times coming for Unity so he sells his stock. At the same time he tries to turn the situation around, uncertain if he will succeed.
And AFAIK the trades are public so everyone would know that the CEO is sceptical about the company’s future. There are obviously problems with the ToS changes but is the stock selling really all that relevant in this discussion?
Huh? Why would you switch to miles from kilometers?
And IMHO megameters aren’t used that often because there is rarely anything useful to measure with it. Using a different unit makes you lose your sense of scale (e.g. the earth has a radius of ~7000km, not 7Mm) and for astronomy megameters aren’t big enough most of the time (and you might as well use lightseconds/years because gigameters give no real intuition of scale).
I’ve actually wondered about this. If you take a sealed container, freeze and thaw it again, shouldn’t it be sterile? So basically good for as long as the seal remains tight?
With some exceptions of course, the seal might not be tight at low temperatures, some bacteria can survive frost etc.
Sure. In my experience a week is absolutely no problem and usually cooked food goes bad in a detectable way (mold or tasting off). Personally I never had a problem but I guess it also depends on the fridge temperature and whether it really was cooked/fried all the way through.
I mean, there shouldn’t be any salmonella on fried eggs in the first place. And once dead it won’t come back just from being stored in the fridge.
Well, not for polyethylene if done at high enough temperatures. And I doubt that the fungi will like plastic covered in toxic substances. But maybe there is a price advantage there if you don’t need to ship the plastic to a incinerator.
I didn’t read up on it in detail but apparently incineration has some large disadvantages, only about 22% of all plastic waste is incinerated. So fungi could be useful for the remaining 78% so it might be more useful than I expected.
What is the application for plastic eating fungi? I thought that burning is the preferred alternative if all you want is to reduce it to CO2. That was you get some energy out of it too.
Or is it hoped that they will be able to survive in the oceans and/or landfills that contain too many toxic substances to burn directly?
I assume you mean casualties? In that case outright deaths would be approximately a third of that.
Sure, that’s certainly a valid point. But at the very least it shows that they don’t expect the sanctions to stop anytime soon. Of course that doesn’t necessarily mean that a war with Taiwan is coming.
Country builds up industry to not rely on opposing country in preparation for war.
Maybe we should be slightly concerned about that? IMHO it shows that Chinas ambition for Taiwan are quite serious.
Not really as isotonic drinks are about having the same proportions of water and electrolytes as your blood.
Imagine completely evaporating a isotonic drink. Now you’ve got a pulver left. Obviously, this isn’t going to be refreshing (unless you mix it with water again)
Okay, sure. Still a bit skeptical about point 2 but we will see.
Well, isn’t that sort of mentioned in the article?
If fediverse development slows down e.g. because adoption of inofficial Facebook extensions takes time it will harm the whole platform. Not by directly taking away users but by blocking progress.
I don’t think the Fediverse is small enough for this to be a serious concern. Especially once multiple companies (Tumblr?) are invested in the fediverse I don’t see this happening anymore.
I absolutely think that the numbers are correct. If Reddit is a habit for you you will not break it immediately (unless you really dislike the changes). This is just time spent, not how much users enjoy it. And if they don’t enjoy the content as much because the quality dropped they will start looking for alternatives. But for most that is a long term thing.
Alternatively, they give Reddit one users worth of ads to make Lemmy a better alternative. I think many will continue using Reddit but attempt to reduce the usage (especially once 3PA are blocked). That means once you run out of content on Lemmy, you switch to Reddit. So more content on Lemmy means less time on Reddit.
The simple truth is that there are communities on Reddit that I care more about than about the API changes. And for those I will continue using Reddit until an alternative exists. So it is a gradual change for me and everyone that helps moving the good content to Lemmy helps me indirectly.
I guess it comes down to whether you consider highly upvoted content good content, especially when it comes to memes etc.
I’m not sure what “walk around a lot” means exactly but I’ve interpreted it as hiking and I’m fairly certain that you will have a very bad time when hiking for three days without ANY food.
And why do you think that you won’t be able to consume enough calories without food? All kinds of drinks should have enough energy to sustain you, e.g. soft drinks, especially if you sweat and therefore drink more than 2l a day. In the worst case you can also just eat sugar.
Well, that certainly looks like it’s implemented in a sane way. I would still assume that somehow it needs to trawl every post. E.g. due to search engine indexing and requesting removal from them or due to tracking/ad related things.
I would guess it’s related to making all the content of the subs private. For large subs that would mean crawling millions of posts/comments.
The selling was planned a long time ago right? I think the main problem here is a CEO owning stock in the first place. If he owns stock he will obviously sell it when he no longer thinks it’s a good investment. And if it’s planned some time ahead it’s not exactly inside knowledge. At least I don’t think that this is a bad case of insider trading.
