Looks very polished for a MVP, well done! I do not have a Facebook profile, so the potential employers that run an "internet background check" will not trust me much. Does that mean that I am not trustworthy? What I am getting at

The links between aluminium cookware and Alzheimer's are inconclusive. From your article: It can migrate to food from cookware and packaging materials such as foil and cartons. One study found that around 20 per cent of aluminium in t

Does anyone know what the codenames are like? If they are easy enough to remember, then they may be easy enough to brute-force? I think this is a great concept, yet perhaps too little, too late (Journalists should know PGP and drop boxes li

>Not even close to true >There's nothing remotely ironic You seem to have made up your mind on this, but just in case you want to understand my view better: A book with heavy anti-propaganda themes is used for propaganda purposes

This was likely part of Operation Mockingbird [1]: A large scale effort by the CIA to use media outlets and literature for propaganda purposes. In a sick twist of irony Operation Mockingbird funded and arranged for the Hollywood production

The paper sure is interesting and should add value to the debate and approaches to SEM. To discard it by scoffing at eBay's execution would indeed be your own loss. My biggest take-away is the saturation of advertisements and the effec

It is not ignored, because eBay has some bad adverts. It did attract significant attention more than a year ago (the study was conducted in 2012, and media reported on it in early 2013). "eBay has no idea if online ads work" would

I found your post interesting, because I think there is always a way for a group to make smarter decisions than any of its individuals. Let's say a middle-ground compromise is chosen on immigration reform: Deport new illegals, offer st

Agreed. Once a network becomes too homogeneous, its collective problem solving abilities go way down. Effective networks can adapt to and benefit from a large number of different fluid participants. It is a cheap way to get complexity/

I am not saying I am one of those coders. But I know that they are on HackerNews. There is a large chance that the founder and VCs of Yo will see this thread. If you post about a computer language, chances are the authors are reading it. Ye

Correct, yet totally besides the point. Instead of what "could be", do a search and find that it were more than 2 investors, and that Hogeg lead the round and invested 200k (of the 1.2 million).

You are frustrated and you now want to bring some of this frustration over on me, which is, sadly, effective. Since this discussion has been between us for a while now, and it became so "heated" as to lead to frustration, I think

Perverse interpretation? That made me laugh a bit. The facts: Turing did not state in his paper that the human interrogator is to be made aware of the replacement. The interpretations: Some more perverse than others :) You don't need t

The quotes you gave were certainly relevant, but still: Turing doesn't state in his paper that the interrogator is to be made aware (all I said). The rest is our modern interpretation of the test. It's a fine interpretation that I

Absolutely! This sword cuts both ways. Our bots are stuck in Searle's Chinese room, performing silly input-output matching tricks without understanding language on a deep human level. An intelligent bot would indeed recognize unproduct

There is some relevant precedent in Dutch courts over this. If you have a fine clause for spamming, and you provide the terms of conditions in a proper manner, both can be enforced by a judge. In one case ("zaaknummer 676425") a c
