That's a different kind of dysfunction, though. You can address it by copying the link and pasting it in a new tab, or if that's not possible, copying the current page to a new tab and clicking on the link there.
It's also not a very effective workaround, because some of the websites in question end up spamming multiple instances of their home page in the history stack.
You can usually address this by going back as far as possible, then holding the button again so more of the history shows up. And IME, it's only really broken sites that have this problem in the first place.
I wonder how often do privacy policies change, for the average site, to merit investing in a dedicated library that renders them dynamically. Assuming that the default solution is a static page.
I think most apps don't update often enough. We've seen products with privacy/cookie policies that are 5+ years old and totally out of sync with the product itself.
We're building OpenPolicy not necessarily to reduce the risk companies have of litigation, but instead to be more transparent with users and to build trust.
In the next version we'll be releasing auto-instrumentation that tracks data/third parties to always keep things in sync.
Okay a couple of things here... The first is that not all contracts are equally legally binding. Terms of service would be among the least. The second is that a contract also cannot override the law... You can't break the law just because it's in a contract...
My problem is mostly that I lack the legal expertise to be able to a) write up a coherent policy with full coverage, and b) follow up on changing legislation, of which there has been quite a lot in recent years (at least in Europe).
The best option until now have been generators found online, which mostly seem to have pivoted to lead generators or demos for paid products now. Considering that in Germany, for example, any website affiliated with a company or pursuing any economic purpose is required to have both a proper imprint and privacy policy, this is something you have to care about. There are even lawyers writing specialised crawlers to find websites with linked Google Fonts but no privacy policy notice, and send automated litigation to the owners. This only became possible after a court decided (as shortsighted as stupidly) loading fonts from Google's servers constituted a privacy violation, given that visitors had no way to consent.
Following these changes and reacting in a timely way is a continuous effort, and a framework to automate this is very welcome IMHO.
Why would sending requests to Google's servers (complete with Referer headers) not be a privacy violation? It allows Google to track every page you visit that has Google Fonts, which is definitely a privacy concern.
Same method though. There's a plethora of vibrating things to choose from. I suppose you could mold a large silicone tentacle to put on a jackhammer, too, and use that to fish for bubbles in your cement soup. Call the tool what you want, you haven't changed the method.
All of these effects are explained much better by social factors. If you're poor or discriminated against, you get less nutrition, less education, and face barriers in trying to improve both.
Could you please elaborate on why measuring the same group somehow eliminates social effects?
Are you claiming social factors have remained constant during the measuring period? Because they very obviously haven't.
If you're aware of the Peter principle, and how inequality compounds over time, then you know that the rate at which social factors change is correlated with their quantile values.
Valid question, which must be put in the context of US-based providers willingly satisfying US out-of-jurisdiction search requests for EU data without even letting the EU know about it. (And when the providers are not willing, they can be forced by U.S. Cloud Act)
The report describes that there was no mechanism to dispatch the reactive power of renewables separately from the active power.
In page 452, item numbered 1 states "RES power plants follow fixed power factor" (RES = Renewable Energy Sources). The source of this finding is in section 4.2.1.
In page 208, footnote 35, the reference is given to Royal Decree 413/2014 of 6 June, which mandates this fixed power factor. The Article 7, section e), states that renewable energy sources must follow the instructions given by the operator to set power factor, and only if the distribution lines support it.
And footnote 36 describes how this worked in practice on the date of the outage: renewables were told, by email on the previous day, which fixed power factor correction to use the following day.

This lack of dynamic dispatch of reactive power was a known problem, already reported in 2022 [1]
I knew there was another incident that I was forgetting, insanity... I don't understand how Microsoft keeps getting away with this and everyone just forgets.
Microsoft has a very good PR department: they invest a lot in lobby/corruption, they pay for articles in big media companies.
And Microsoft is too big to fail.
