I think it's because it's an inherently selfish model - "Stop other people having the things I want"

Why? I'll have a bunch of spammy, disinterested non-accounts registered and using up usernames that real customers might want. For what? I get... access to those people? Them added to a mailing list? No thanks.

Unfortunate side effect of their incremental search system :P

I added a tiny bit of context when posting - to explain to people why this might be interesting to them. "Pythagorean 'greedy' cup - empties entirely if filled too much".

What's the purpose of reducing that to just the raw wikipedia title?

It does take practise to be able to visualise 4d objects, and I agree that 2d projection example isn't helpful. I find it interesting to think of the 3d -> 2d problem that some people have, and extend it to 4d.

And to answer the question, your weakness can be shown as a strength. Rally your team and do a big last minute pus: "This hidden gem of a game has only a week left! Help get it funded!"

My point was: for UK-based investors with small pots of money, these schemes basically give you free money (if you only invest up to the limits for tax relief). While, yes, they are much riskier in terms of company sucess/failure, the scheme negates most of the real risk and removes taxation on the rewards. The government is basically hedging your bets.

You don't have to use my code, so I'm going to use the tools that I think give the best results.

I'm a web developer and long-time reader here, and almost half our members are in the tech industry, there's some kind of link :) (These do work very well as an office friday-drinks treat. We're beginning to ship to a few places around London who are doing that.)

I loved it. A history of rum, including all of the politics around it (like the role it played in the slave trade and American independence), great read :)

Oh my god...

I suppose something about the pure security of a OTP is enticing. Public keys can be broken, it's just not feasible at the moment. I don't know enough here, but it seems like past data sent via public key will eventually be trivial to decrypt?

Losing a OTP is equivalent to losing a private key, not much changes there. I suppose if your partner was "coerced" then a OTP exposes both sides of the transaction, whereas knowing their private key would only help decrypt your messages to them.
