Unlike what UML is trying to simulate, which is an architectural blueprint, a UML model of a system cannot be verified for correctness. But a blueprint can be verified; You can tell "that proposed bridge" will hold "so much traffic and wind" by studying the blueprint.
...the extent to which the use is transformative. In the 1994 decision Campbell v. Acuff-Rose Music Inc,[13] the U.S. Supreme Court held that when the purpose of the use is transformative ... is more likely to favor fair use.
While I think it would be GREAT to see what Nick Nolte (Lucas was considering him) would have done with Han Solo over the wooden Harrison Ford, I'm not sure I care enough to sit through it all again to find out. Blech.
I live in Minnesota, the land of the great Anishinaabe tribes. I was surprised to learn that these Anishinaabe drove out the Lakota and sent them westward in 1750 in the aftermath of a bloody battle in the north of which Red Lake was named, because it ran with Lakota blood. It's a complex history and this is a tiny slice of it.
"It's better to repeat yourself than use the wrong abstraction."
It happens often in the attempt to be DRY we add a parameter or some condition to handle a new variation to what seems like a universal logical construct in the code. Do this enough times and the code is no longer comprehensible to any of the people who wrote each variation, let alone a newcommer. We mistake some commonalities with a universality. We become zealots.

FWIW as a Clojure/Script developer this technology would have been kind of mind-bending if it still existed.
Russia, OTOH, is the real the mother of all petrostates. Any problem you might imagine facing Saudi is tiny compared to the impact on Russia. They've already suffered so much as a result of the oil crash in the late 90's by becoming a mafia state.
Tragic species enact tragic, destructive, eschatological narratives. Sustainable species enact positive, nurturing and generative narratives. If we can communicate a message that is the latter, we have a chance of survival.
But a plurality of the people I encounter in the Clojure community came there because leiningen (Clojure's package manager that uses Maven under the covers) "just works" and they got tired of having a tough time reproducing builds consistently on other platforms / OSs with Python; not to mention the performance gains of the JVM.
My sense is the crux is that you make explicit with CQRS is that you can offload reads to read replicas as long as you're OK with the read replicas being a bit more behind in the writes. Which gives you greater scalability like you say.
I thought African elephants were larger than Asian elephants?
A couple of interesting points to consider: refined, bleached, deodorized oil such as canola oil is highly processed. Your link warns about highly processed oil in general. Considering how little we seem to be able to nail down scientifically the nutritional value of fat, the focus of the article around the role of fat in diet has a level of certitude I find suspect.
