If the previous work is a single paper, you are right. However it consists usually in multiple papers, it becomes then more complicated to hide that all these papers share one (or more) author(s).

(to me, it seems to be more a blow job specialist's view than that of an actual generalist, but ...)
Yes, but... there is usually some "processing fee" for the customer when it is done this way, so it depends on what they are selling. For instance, if they are selling $10000 items, then yes, the customer probably won't mind too much a $30 processing fee additional to a VAT of about $2000. However, if they are selling $5 items, the post office will still ask its $30 processing fee, even if the VAT is only $1... And, the customer will scream murder, refuse the parcel, etc.

Considering that the RER started to operate in 1977 [0], I find that hard to believe.

They are still relatively rare in city stores that target the general consumer, but they are readily available in larger suburban/rural stores. However, even in these, small boxes are usually only available in Pozidriv, but bigger boxes are often available in both Pozidriv and Torx, the latter being a bit more expensive.
Never seen a Robertson screw there, however.
Still, it may be moot for most of those tools evolve sufficiently during their lifetime that one can wonder if they remain the same. Is Emacs with modes such as org or magit really the same emacs that was used in the '90s? Would a Linux sysadmin from 2000 really feel at home with a 2022 Linux and systemd, containers and ...
OT: in Europe, a thiol is added to natural gas to give it a distinctive smell. Isn't the same done in the US?
I fear it would need something a little bit more complex than just an Arduino on the hardware side. For some options, you could take a look at some recent versions of Facedancer [0] and their HW requirements.
True; on the other hand I remember (I don't have a handy reference, sorry) a study showing that car drivers were leaving less space around cyclists wearing a helmet (hence increasing the probability of a collision) than around those without...

Yes, and using transfig it can be transformed into whatever format you need. So, for instance, you can have a complete LaTeX document with .fig figures (and a Makefile to "compile" everything) in a repository.
By the way, like Ipe mentioned in another comment, it is possible to use TeX formatting in xfig and the .fig format (using the "special" attribute) to produce some especially nice figures for scientific documents.

I see what you mean, but is using the "general overestimation" slider actually unbiased? I don't really understand what it is supposed to represent. Looking at the code, it seems to be only an additive term that shifts the plot upwards, but that does not explain anything (actually, in the code, the variable is called "up_bias", and could correspond to an actual DK effect...).
But as I understand it, it doesn't: In the graph generated using random data, the lines intersect in the middle (bias_lowskill == bias_highskill), whereas in DK's paper they intersect in the upper right (so bias_lowskill != bias_highskill).
Another potential attack (for those who use them to store keys created on another device), would be to have a way, for an attacker that would steal your (fake) Yubikey, to get back the secret key (which is normally impossible/hard on a genuine Yubikey).
I hope you diffused the information and that this printer brand is now known and banned in every emergency service as unsuitable.
EDIT: actually, it seems that Purism's Librem key is (was?) based on the Nitrokey.
