not so easy.
On a serious note, if you are willing to use a full-height (as tall as early-1980s 5 1/4" floppy drives) form factor with 3x as many platters as you have now, you could get close to 100TB.
If you want to double or triple the speed-after-cache-exhaustion, add more heads per platter. If you want to increase the real-world speed to SSD-or-faster-speed, add lots and lots of can-survive-power-loss cache (SSD, battery-backed RAM, etc.). But all of this adds costs. For most use cases today, an array with ten 10-TB metal drives and ample cache for the workload would be cheaper than a single super-tall 100TB metal drive with ample built-in cache, even if such a beast existed.
Now, 5 years from now, the 100TB spinner might be the economical choice.
You have to be careful though - there is obvious bad-faith reporting and there is reporting that you can't prove is bad-faith. if you start penalizing those who "might" be bad-faith actors, you will discourage less-experienced/less-expert good-faith actors who just happen to be sloppy or outright wrong.
Adding a checklist where the submitter is swearing to tell the truth might help "prove bad faith." Such a checklist would include things like:
* Did you use AI? If so, what models and prompts did you use? What additional work did you do after reviewing the information provided by the AI?
* Have you submitted any reports about this product in the last year? Which ones?
* What version of the product did you test, and what platform did you test it on (include version numbers where applicable)?
* Include your name, country of residence, and contact information for you or your legal representative.
It's not that there are any right or wrong answers, but being caught lying would be strong evidence of bad faith.
Why restrict that to just graduates?
The original article was comparing recent college graduates to the population as a whole.
"And today's forecast is a high somewhere in the 80s, maybe 70s or 90s, check back around 6PM for more details.
Oh, and it just might rain. Maybe."
I'd like to see the same data after factoring in underemployment.
How many recent grads were doing what they considered "temporary, until I get a real job" work in the 12 months after graduation for Spring 2024 graduates? Compare that number + unemployment across the years going back a few decades and show me the chart.
Do the same for "still looking for a real job, even if I have a temp gig lined up" for Spring 2025 graduates and compare that to graduates for the past few decades who were "still looking" around the time that they graduated.
Every time I see or hear an updated weather report, I know my tax dollars are at work.
Is he going into deep dementia now?
Are you suggesting he wasn't there already?
Um, nope.
We are neurodivergent, but in divergent ways.
and theres probably a total of three people
That many?
Unless you broaden "typical/average" enough, most people are height-divergent too.
How far do you want to zoom in or zoom out from average (assuming a mostly-bell-curve distribution) when declaring what is and is not "typical?"
How many people are within a few millimeters of the average/typical height for their country? How many are +/- a few decimeters?
Granted, test scores on autism, dyslexia, ADHD, etc, don't follow a bell curve, but the point is similar: Unless the particular measurement has a clear-cut "valley" where everyone on one side of the valley can be considered "typical" and everyone on the other can be considered "atypical," where you "draw the line" can be arbitrary. Even where there is a "valley" there is still a judgment call on whether to call the people who score "higher than clearly typical, lower than clearly atypical" typical or atypical.
borrowed funds? If not, the ban will have limited effect because money is fungible.
Now, it will prevent someone with a net worth, say, of GBP100,000 from buying GBP200,000 worth of whatever-coin, but it won't stop them from spending everything they have on whatever-coin and putting their living expenses on a credit card.

Legend has it that a young man weilding a book of Aristotle took down a wild boar back in the day.
Maybe it was a juvenile boar?
