The big they describe was fixed a about a month ago, wasn't it? https://cloud.google.com/blog/topics/threat-intelligence/rus... suggests it was. Wonder what the real reason for this news is.

War of full of cruelties. You've read about "foraging" to supply an army with food, which was done for millennia. Nice polite word. Do you know what it meant? It meant sending out soldiers to find farmers and force them to ha

At a guess, something to do with "hiring" Mozilla to do phishing protection in forms, perhaps in-browser, more likely mostly-in-browser.

I think you're being unfair. A more generous description would be "who thinks they're on their own anyway, because if the big bad day comes, Trump's going to be a no-show".

A friend of mine who ran customer support said: if you break some app with av upgrade, you get a shitstorm.

There are two things here. The company has an algorithm that tried to find out what makes users click/scroll onwards/return soon. And then there is what users like. The company chooses to act as though the two are equal. That&#x27

Excellent answer. I'd like to add that this is common enough that there are about 50 service providers that do it. If you're Carlsberg and have one single salesperson in a country, these companies let you have a regular employment

Are you reacting to your downvote(s)? That's just driveby downvotes from google haters, nothing substantive.

I think you're assuming that a power network with fewer connections still has the same costs, which seems wrong. The core network will have lower load and there will be fewer leaf nodes.

Here's a map showing radar coverage: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/369794025/figure/fi... There are more radars there, that's not everything. But until recently, what reason was there to

My 100% subscriptions in the past years is on Android, actually. What I've heard is that one-time purchases lead to a lack of income after three years, when people expect upgrades. That's not a problem for app developers who don&#

I bought quite a few around 2012, sure, but it tapered off. I don't think I've bought any apps as one-time purchases in the past five years, it's all yearly subscriptions now. All the ones I see on my main phone screen right

I thought most apps sell per-year subscriptions that then expire. Isn't that correct?

Is it operated by TfL, perhaps? No idea really.

"Is trying to restart" is a description I can agree with. They're clearly looking for ways to spend the billions. Let's see how many of those billions are eventually paid to someone.

That wasn't actually the question. AFAICT you think France has been caught short and infer that France is doubling down, etc. But you're not saying that what you think should happen actually happens. In fact France did spend money

Is France doubling down? They started a bunch of projects and provided money, yes. Good IMO. One should research even improbable possibilities, say I. But they also evaluated the projects recently, and the results weren't good. Here&#x

That's what Putin thought at the beginning of the three day war. Not surprised if Trump thought so too.

So they hired a company called SAVIC to migrate their SAP installation to AWS and then someone from Redington deleted the AWS account. What is Redington and where is that company in the picture?

I think he sort of assumes that there are things you can post on Facebook/Twitter in the US, with no real consequences, but not in Europe. AFAICT the people in the European city where I live generally expect that they can post anything

There's a quote... I think it was Kissinger, but I can't find it now. "Don't issue an order unless you're prepared to back it up with force." See also: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43059

It sort of makes sense where Putin is coming from. He considers himself the almighty Tsar, he'd prefer to solve the temporary lack of obeisance in Ukraine peacefully, and of course the solution must acknowledge his supreme rule. I find

The one where I live does too, but it's one that people have. The requirement is not obnoxious. It's not even bothersome.

Some people will be in contempt of court. Trump will issue some pardons, but will he issue pardons for his small helpers? Small helpers will have to worry about the next election.

I live in one of the places with good power. Have lived in my present building for 20 years, only two power failures in that time, and of those happened because unknown persons really wanted to cut power to my neighbour. The price for thi
