Well, you have to have seen it from the point of view of the CEO. Playing devil's advocate, what would you do if you jumped onboard, and the first thing you saw was that all your clients were interacting only with your VP of marketing/Sales on a personal basis? ...well, granted, if it was that exactly he would still be employed to this day :D but you get the picture, maybe it was bad enough that what the CEO did was already above and beyond.

and now pg knows all the boomers on the site stored in the upvote list here.

Isn't etherDelta an etherium app/token/contract?

How is that different than running an etherium miner? Actually, didn't it run on an etherium miner? can you get a fee from a contract someone else mined because you are the author? well I guess so otherwise why would the creator be being fined? ...etherium is weird.

Well, the comment you are replying to may have jumped the gun, both are still hypothesis.

What can I use nowadays to play this site's .rm (real media?) files?

This (and the internet in general) is pretty anemic on details.

Is this a VM on top of dalvik? I assumed DEX was deprecated in favour of ART https://source.android.com/devices/tech/dalvik/gc-debug.html I mean it is still compatible bytecode (i think) but who knows anything about android roadmap anymore?

So the air have tons of ports, function keys, escape key, touch ID, a fan not connected to anything thermal! and is heavier.

while the "PRO" macbook have a single usbC on 12", no fans, no f-keys, no escape key.

Apple is now a true Mainstream Consumer PC manufacturer! The models means nothing! Now you have to dive in model numbers and specific production runs to get what you want, just like buying Asus et al.

For the same reason some banks open so many branches. "Real State".

It depends on the browser. some browsers allow JS code to fool the status bar url, others do not.

If you are using a browser that prevents status bar fooling, you will be able to copy the original link and middle click to avoid tracking. If your browser allows it, then everything will include tracking.

Since forever.

And they do it on the onClick event, so you are mislead to believe that the link is clean (as show on your status bar on link mouse over, until the very last second)

And they do that on GMail, calendar, and even on mobile apps such as google voice and hangouts. (i.e. if you long press and copy, it is a clean url, if you touch the link, it opens a tracking redirect on the browser --which chrome hides. But you should be using firefox on android as well)

Firefox (desktop and mobile) and Chorme (only desktop because google don't want you installing adblockers on their browsers) have an extension called "Skip Redirect" that works-around this problem.

that's like saying bullets are ineffective because most of them miss the target.

not to mention an investigation on bribes to have your billboards allowed.

"self regulation"

So annoying they didn't link to the full articles, in it's various forms.

because when I am driving I want to know which house has a law or not?

Most subtle changes I noticed on the examples on street names (e.g. "W 9th st" to "ninth street", sans "w") are actually a downgrade.

How is this different from Volkswagen? They inflated a metric by 600+% according to the legal documents on the article, for 2+ years. And kept all the revenue from the 'mistake' while crushing competitors that lost business for those two years.

Why is it more difficult on a phone?

it is exactly the same process as a desktop. First install a decent browser (not the crap one shipped by the OEM), for example, firefox for Android. Then install your favorite adblocker extensions (which should be uBlock Origin). Done. No step 3!

The excuse for all the trackers involved in online advertising is exactly because not a single advertiser trust any publisher.

Your comment is still very valid for small clients on self-serve systems, though.

theoretic physics stoped being the 'weird-what-if-from-academia' to be the 'weird-what-if' in general

The delivery on this program is extremely annoying and slow paced (and rushed on points that ought be slow).

:(

the indignation was not that. you are still missing the point.

after the 1st device found, you should have contacted the manufacturer and said that you will start a department that has the capability of opening the device, inspecting and re-sealing in a way that it won't impact any guarantee the factory provides. If they denied this very sensible request, you had proof that it wasn't a isolated employee doing the hack.

The three papers used the same 'filtering' methodology, to keep the simplification analogy.

Think like that: there are two bright lights in front of you. There will always be a halo between those two bright lights.

Now, my hypothesis is that "between all two bright lights, there is third, dimmer one, hidding". And then i prove it by filtering X from the two bright light halo, and prove that Y is left proving that the third light is there.

Now, how can i be sure Y is really a third dimmer light? and not just noise on the function i used to try to clean up the halo of the two bright light?

Do they make that data public for the same loophole that paypal tries to use with venmo? i.e. make sharing the data "a feature" so that they can sell it as there is no expectation of privacy.

The hypothesis is they should see CMB distortion between galaxies, which is hidden by the distortion caused by the galaxies themselves. The solution was to assume they were removing the distortion caused by the galaxy halo, and what was left was the original distortion they were looking for.

sounds like the work to rule out false-positives would be huge. This is putting a lot of weight on a technique that is not fully described in the paper (i might have missed, just glanced at them for now, and i am an amateur that just like to fiddle with similar data).

He did the predictions from a patent. Why are people impressed? Or there is more to the story that the article cares to mention?

This is a terrible research. Even the BS meter they used is not very cited elsewhere.

first sentence for example, any engineer knows that strong water jets can precisely cut steel in seconds, much better than any persistent river over several generations.

Also, they picked the most subjective "pro-social" measurements. It boils down to "volunteering" (time or money), no matter to what (can have been antifa, MAGA, etc)

same. their traffic probably explode during a large corp layoff, and completely dies on the next week.

Which is ironic, because now lay'd of people will be "verified" on the old company email (and hearing all the grapevine pettiness about internal projects) while working for the competition.

I think it is a tradeoff. If you want more data resilience on disk, SQLite will require all sorts of hacks to (and more difficult, when) to dump to disk.

On the other hand, if you need every ounce of performance and do not care so much about data resiliency on disk, then the other sql applications will be too much hassle to configure in a way you do not miss any of the many safeguards to save data they ship with by default, which will kill your performance when you least expect.

(because there is no toplevel comment saying this):

it is emacs' org mode on steroids. If you don't like org mode, move along.

...And some of the side effects of the steroids are already showing (e.g. "you can embed html in markdown". Really? So it is now an html renderer with markdown 'shortcuts'?)
