Concluding this was intentional feels a bit of a stretch. But once it happened, yeah the spin masters got to work and coordinated to turn this into +PR.
Look up CDED (Crohn's disease exclusion diet) which is the first line of treatment for pediatric Crohn's and now it's increasingly being used for adults. So don't dismiss the diet link despite the facts and research.
An important missed angle is the effect of artificial sweeteners on gut microbiome. They cause intestinal inflammation which is relevant for IBD sufferers. My take is that I don't miss out on much by being conservative with food, as we still don't understand these complex interactions well enough. What's the harm in sticking to a balanced whole diet of ingredients that were available to our ancestors 200years or more ago.
> halve my effective memory in order to completely eliminate the tail latency problem,
Wouldn't you have a tail latency problem on the write side though if you just blindly apply it every where? As in unless all the replicas are done writing you can't proceed.
You mean this culture shift is needed for the masses but I don't think that's the case. In my widest social circle I am not aware of anyone giving alcohol to young kids (yes by the time they are 16ish yes but even that's rare). Most guardians would willingly do similar with locked devices.
The real problem is that the governments/companies won't get to spy on you if locked devices are given to children only. They want to spy on us all. That's the missing cultural shift.
You just copy paste as in you copy paste all the necessary context and the results. You don't give it access to your codebase for read or write, correct?
Durability always has an asterisk i.e. guaranteed up to N number of devices failing. Once that N is set, your durability is out the moment those N devices all fail together. Whether that N counts local disks or remote servers.
