To your point, there are multiple assessments being made, many of which not being accounted for in the original.
Does the listener fully comprehend "the rules" as they're being laid out?
The listener is evaluating the trusthworthiness of the speaker?
The listener may evaluate their own skills in pulling off a deception by taking the marshmallow and lie about it.
Due to "the rules" laid out by the speaker, does the listener consider they may change "the rules" (influenced by their historical experience with adults)?
Does the listener place any value on a 'marshmallow' at all, maybe a toy, or a type of item previously identified as having high value would lead to different results?
Adjusting for variables in the 'fuzzy' sciences can be difficult due to the innate subjectivity.
Most of these jobs would never get posted in the first place, you need to already be a known entity with these groups/be trusted before they let you close to the mainframe. Have a friend in one of these roles currently, ~10hrs/wk, remote, 6 figures.
People in these roles don't want to draw attention on their sweet comp packages which is why you won't see them crow about who/where they work.
This actually makes the most sense, and would help explain how the error didn't occur during testing (in good faith, I assume it was tested).
In testing, the dev may have worked from their primary to deploy the update to a series of secondary drives, then sequential performed a test boot from each secondary drive configured for each supported OS version. A shortcut/quick way to test that would've bypassed how their product updates in customer environments, also bypassing checks their software may have performed (in this case, overwriting their own file's contents).
My first thought on hearing "15 reboots" was it being a means for Support teams to task users with busy-work, buying them time for further troubleshooting before the avalanche of supports requests came back to them.
Then my second thought was frequent rebooting to fill activity logs, possibly push a suspicious action/trigger performed by CS off of the log.
Before scrolling down, the first images tell me this was fake. The laminate is the all wrong. Intimately aware of laminate devices & materials used during the period.
Source: me, during that time I oversaw security at a Fortune 500, issuing thousands (literally) of IDs for "limited access" areas (DataCenters, SOC, etc) in multiple facilities.
While message boards and irc still exist and could be considered "echo chambers", social media began kicking off in mid-2000s with their algorhythmic echo chambers.
Also around this time period was growth in blogging, further pulling people away from homepages to "personal pages". Even in the days of Geocities, many people would hit a homepage prior to potentially visiting their own site.
And while smart phones did play a role in the trend, changes to web browsers on PC devices with their own "start pages" with news/content operating as pseudo-homepages further contributed to the shift for non-smartphone users.
Near Infrared (NIR) is affected by tissue type. It's light, different densities of a substance, along with what that substance may be comprised, will influence the rate of absorption of the light by a substance and reduction in light penetration.
Lime juice is a staple in my recipe. Have substituted with lemon juice when I'm surprised to not have lime available. It helps with the browning but not as much with the flavor
A similar saying that I learned from a business mentor years ago, "Just because someone is nice to you doesn't make them your friend, just because someone is mean to you doesn't make them your enemy."
Can speak from personal experience. Traumatic incident which severed the nerves to my leg in multiple places. Nerves eventually regrew and reconnected within the leg, and then again where they were severed in the foot.
Motor and senory nerves reacted differently.
When motor nerves reconnected, I still couldn't contract the muscles and went through a series of steps to relearn how to use the limb. First I was trying to "move" the leg, but effectively the "IP address" for the leg was changed so my "move" signals were going to where my head thought the leg was instead of to the new connection. Instead, I would estim a specific muscle and "listen" in my head for where "noise" was coming from. That "noise" was the electric buzzing from the estim'd muscle contraction. Eventually, I learned how to concentrate to make a muscle contract, and many steps later (pun intended), I learned to walk again.
Sensory nerves didn't need a push signal, they're like a constant inbound feed when connected. When the sensory nerves reconnected, it is something you definitely notice. Going about your day, and suddenly you feel an jolt, like being shocked, and over the next few hours to days the area that is reconnecting is burning, stinging, feels like it is being crushed by pressure, and cold all at the same time. It was much more intense than when your arm falls asleep. The sensation can be maddening but it eventually passes as your body begins to sort and acclimate the signals.
All of these steps on calibrating the sensory nerves and learning how to contract and coordinate muscles is something we take for granted as people usually sort it out when they're infants.
Snakes are not a preferred target of cats but they will take them out.
From personal experience. Came home on a hot summer day. Let the cat loose and it immediately began to act unusual and drew our attention to a snake that had made it into the house. "Petals" ended the snake in short order without much fanfare.
Was jokingly musing that perhaps the "brand change" is to intentionally create a dust-up with Microsoft, claiming MS needs to change the icon for Excel from the green X to something else. The intent would be to create a distraction in the news from the other chain of poor choices made around Ex-Twitter.
A solid move to instill faith with advertisers that what is left of "the platform formerly known as twitter" will be stable, avoid confusion with their users, and be a brand-positive environment.
What's everyone's timetable for either shutdown or sell-off of twitter, 18 months. Ad revenue will continue to shrink, effective 'cost per' rates will decrease while Ex-Twitter will try to squeeze out stable or higher, likely push brands toward longer term campaign spend, engagements so as to reflect long-term dollars on a balance sheet.
Only reasonable counterpoint would be if this is part of a strategy to convert X to a portal with Ex-Twitter being one app/platform tied to central identity graph with other services/platforms to be connected later.
