Allows for easier customisation and less food wastage (and you don't have to keep track of when something was made), at the cost of time for 'easy' orders.
In the UK the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act (RIPA) makes it a criminal offence to not divulge a password if compelled via a RIPA notice.
All of humanity's problems, stem from man's inability to sit quietly in a room alone. - attributed to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blaise_Pascal
I think it's someone paraphrasing from the original text.

> Perpendicular recording was later used by Toshiba in 3.5" floppy disks in 1989 to permit 2.88 MB of capacity (ED or extra-high density), but they failed to succeed in the marketplace.
Unless owners are completely in the loop in terms of the rental market (which they likely are not, they don't rent), they may not come up with good estimates for what an equivalent rent would be.
For large database vendors there is a good amount of complexity put into up-front information gathering so that query execution is fast.
There's also some things with nut in their name. c.f. Nutmeg, coconut.
As others have mentioned, same kind of deal with 'berry'.
And to follow up, if you're travelling abroad it's worth noting that some countries have different naming structures/separate out the families of 'nuts'. So be careful if you're asking if something has 'nuts' in, there can be a language barrier. e.g. tree nuts vs. Lupins (peanut family).
e.g. a Peanut is a seed, as are almonds, cashews, walnuts.
In a previous role, I worked at a product-led consultancy in a niche industry which delivered multi-year + multi-phase projects. These were projects were delivered (on our side) on a time and materials basis, and could easily get into the tens of millions in fees.
There would typically be a 'requirements gathering' phase of the project where we held business workshops, where the output was a more concrete project estimate with potential timelines.
This is what would go into the signoff/contract of the project-proper. At this point the client could in theory walk away, with the documents we had produced as part of that phase. Think business process diagrams etc.
The client would pay for the requirements gathering, although I suspect like everything, there would have been discussion about how long it should be/how much it should cost up-front. The projects we had all had a similar phase, simply because it was very hard to know how much there was to do (on both sides) without detailed discussions about what their existing business looked like.
Hence in both cases they are both looking to realise gains at the point where they no longer have control over the taxes being charged. A `penalty` for leaving their tax jurisdiction, notionally for the tax they are 'owed'.

It's a loose concept, a bag of things including basic human behaviour/self interest, mutually beneficial transactions between willing participants and the rules provided by governments.
As the weight increases, it requires more focus to ensure that you are keeping your form and positioning and even just to engage your muscles `in the right way`. Form becomes more important/a pre-requisite in a way that ramps up as the weight increases as mistakes become harder to correct on-the-fly. The tolerances decrease and so the technique becomes more important.
It's not sudden, but can feel that way sometimes when you wake up!

Copyright as far as I understand is focused on wholesale reproduction/distribution of works, rather than using material for generation of new works.
If something is available without contractual restriction it is available to all. Whether it's me reading a book, or a LLM reading a book, both could be considered the same.
Where the law might have something to say is around the output of said trained models, this might be interesting to see given the potential of small-scale outputs. i.e. If I output something to a small number of people, how does one detect/report that level of infringement. Does the `potential` of infringement start to matter.
Reducing the top-line specs of the phone means that it might fall down in comparisons to others in a spec-comparison.
I presume they would rather move the conversation into customer-land, i.e. once you've bought your phone they talk about how they are acting to preserve your expensive device.
Everyone should know going in what is being discussed and what the expectations are around the objective of the meeting.
If you don't have these, you have no idea if it will be a productive meeting.

If you're not looking for that then you can build your software/system to have known sync-points where you can allow a given process to stop/wait and allow other processing to occur. This can then be in-process/out of process/remote.
As you say, this ends up being a scheduler with which you have to employ knowledge about the execution/communication channels in order to coordinate correctly.
You can have the communication channels between components under the control of the simulation environment rather than have them happen in their 'normal' manner. This allows you to inject latency between components, 'fiddle' with the inputs/outputs as suggested as well as record messaging (assuming you're working with systems that exchange messages/events) with appropriate event times.
Another important point around clocks is that you'll want to include a scheduling API in your clock components to be able to schedule events for themselves in the future. If you start moving to event-time then being able to fast-forward in time is another advantage.
Overall it's worth considering the class of issue you're trying to detect with this approach. It's great to be able to run things in event time, debug ad-nauseam but you're not going to catch race conditions without the smarts mentioned around native scheduling.
There are some parallels as well between this style of testing and production replication, so that's good to have at the back of your mind if you're looking to collect production telemetry/ingress + egress data. If you build a good system for this type of testing producing reproduceable code will be part of your development process and you're more likely to be able to produce tooling for investigation/reproduction of production issues.
(The context in which I do work that's kind of in this area is robust backtesting of trading systems)
Faced with inflation, and the requirement that there is money coming out every X months, I believe it's hard for any other outcome to be achieved.
It would be trickier however if looking at raw keystrokes, as one has to consider several confounding factors:
* The caret can be moved both by keystrokes and mouse * You don't know what is being typed. If someone is typing people's names all day, or writing software then the analysis of letter/key frequency will be shifted
Not impossible, but makes the process harder.
But whether astrology actually settled on these features would depend on the feedback systems in place, and the granularity of those systems/how predictions were made in reference to a specific person.
