This may be a logical fallacy known as false equivalence, when one fact is stated or implied to be conflated with another not directly related fact.

Some alternate suggestions might be nice.

Here is the novelization of the cartoon... sort of. As She Climbed Across the Table by Jonathan Lethem.

Ha ha, maybe. The article is pretty short. However, the actual paper linked at the bottom of the article is titled "Hamiltonian cycles on Ammann-Beenker Tilings" (unfortunately I can only see the abstract), so the original authors are also responsible!

It's my thinking that the key point of thr Hamiltonian cycle in this context is it visits nodes only once thereby creating a unique path. The trick here seems to be then joining those paths for a collection of subgraphs? I'm really not sure. It's a bit beyond me, but I find it interesting to think about.

What are you talking about. Everyone knows polls are the best way to determine what is or is not a myth. That's why that TV show Mythbusters failed so miserably and is off the air now. Too much fiddly experimentation and sciency mumbojumbo, and not nearly enough polls. It really helps if the polls ask pointed questions about hot button issues with little to no context also... So people aren't confused or have to think too much (which also is a form of dishonesty when you think (but not too much) about it). Pretty sure there is a poll out there somewhere that confirms this.

My god, at this rate UTC+1 and UTC+3 will dominate the whole world by 2223!

Interesting perspective, but I'd tend to argue that the technologies such as WiFi have massively increased inclusiveness and accessibility for magnitudes more people than it has raised issues for.

WiFi, for example, allows libraries to offer servises 24 hours a day without the need to physically enter the building. Wirh such openness comes some security and resource sharing challenges, and metimrs addressed by throttling or overly aggressive firewalls. But for nearly everyone the expanded accessibility has been fantastic.

I am also concerned with outsourcing. But worried about cloudflare are pretty far down the list. Adobe controlled DRM on most ebooks, and even third party cloud based catalogues, are way more concerning. But unfortunately these happen to be the most cost effective way the limited funding of libraries can manage in many cases. I hate these circumstances but it seems to me the compromise is providing more access to more resources for more people, not less.

This is not to discourage always better ways and more freedom and efficiency. But overall I just can't see how the issues you cite are excluding people more than helping include more people.

Lets face it, the half dozen people per million (if that) who care about the FLOSS status of thier WiFi hardware's firmware, probably are technically capable enough to find a way to access library resources securely more than most people!

As a person who ages ago created and single letter (before the @) email address thinking myself clever and efficient... I'm amazed and distressed how many forms have insisted that my email address is invalid.

The wealthy NEED the airports to keep running so not to interfere with their vacation plan. Starving kids on the other hand can simply be rewoven as doormats by any good capitalist.

The blueberries are ready when they taste good to you. Some people like them earlier for a more tart flavour.

And yet their makeup is impeccable. Article says "young people", but curiously only cute women in the pictures.

"It looks cute, and yet, you don't lose that feeling of sexiness." Ah, the all important feeling of sexiness in the office that women strive for.
