This takes place over 400 years in the future. Has not a single wine bottle changed at all over the last 400 years?

I get "This video is not available". Perhaps I'm on the wrong planet.

Possibly - they seem to have "changed the rules" and it's only available in the US (or via a US Proxy)
Try this one: "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3om4V_-Y0Q" via the US server of ProxySite[^]

Thanks.
Wine making (and angst) in the 24th Century indeed.
It is ironic that in a tv show that is (very broadly) based upon Rodenberry's concepts of post-money human intellectual and cultural attainment and progress, that trailers for a new show are geoblocked (for apparently no beneficial reason to anyone whatsoever, rights holders included).
And how long before the fans demand that Picard gets Data's mind working in the spare body...

Series 2, Episode 1 would be my guess.

Will gin improve my random memory access?

It might make your disk array go into horizontal mode.

Enough of it will certainly make your memory access more random. I'm not sure that's a good thing...

In all seriousness, it's probably because Tim is good at 'em - and living in Canada he has to post 'em late at night (today's he posted at half past midnight his local time).
We could ban him from answering them, but that's not really civilized and IMHO he's doing his best to get them posted at a reasonable time.

At first glance real application (new) code from someone else always looks complicated, and one has to work with it for a while to find it, eventually, simpler. And sometimes I wonder if with old age and worst memory I suffer from that more.
Yesterday I mentioned some code looks excessively complicated for no reason, i.e. it does very simple task, and I got an incredulous look from a fellow developer... Maybe I was wrong?
First I am always confused by the double layer of obfuscation where getting something from the db goes through 2 pass-through layers, each hidden behind their own interface, that return "data model". Thanks god for Go To implementation and also sometimes some property are not named like the columns, or swapped around, tricky...
I guess I am getting old here..
But then I stumbled on that (code simplified for sake of "clarity")!
And I knew I was right, it's not just me, code was complicated!
void DoSomething()
{
foreach (var d in Data)
{
if (MustDo(d.Code))
{
}
}
}
bool MustDo(string code)
{
if (BigCondition)
{
return GetData(code)?.Should ?? false;
}
return false;
}
AData GetData(string code) => Data.FirstOrDefault(x => x.Code == code);
clearly this is over complicated and can be rewritten
void DoSomething()
{
foreach (var d in Data)
{
if (BigCondition && d.Should)
{
}
}
}
And there is much much more of it...
Well I guess that's why they pay me!
