Almost all of facebook s content is off google But take basecamp for example. Do they really need google searches for such a specialized business software? There is email and other forms of marketing they can use to reach out directly to pr

How did any of these companies (google amazon apple) grow? Feeding the search machine only makes google stronger. If businesses stop giving away their content to google for free, it will stop being so important. The only platforms that can

Because antitrust action will just distract from trying to actually beat the status quo, without effect (like we havent seen any effects fron eu’s repeated attempts to steer ppl away from google). In the case of basecamp i dont think they n

I can't help but think that companies like basecamp or tile, largely brought about this situation to themselves. Neither google nor apple should be platforms to be dependent on. They should be used as startup platforms, get some moment

if EU seriously considers privacy, the only tool that citizens can have is encryption. e.g. mandate E2E on every text-messaging communication. banning FR, while this: > Exceptions to the ban could be made for security projects as well as

They also dropped Persona, giving facebook and others primacy on SSO identities, at a time where they could still change the landscape.

The morphology files are automatically generated by a 3d reconstruction program called neurolucida. NEURON is an ancient program, written in 1983, using a custom parser for the ad-hoc language literally called hoc. It has a hardcoded limit

Except the clock is ticking every 30 minutes in that network. it's too slow for behavior. GRNs are relevant to long-term plasticity which is protein-dependent and has prominent modulators (e.g. CREB)

C got this right. We tend to resort to textual interfaces (CLIs and source code, searching instead of directories) because they have the expressivity and conciseness of language. No other tool such as Diagram languages works as good. As dev

they are not. the current consensus in computational neuroscience is that a neuron can be equivalent to a 2-layer or 3-layer ANN with point nonlinearities. Edit: i am blocked from posting, so here are the refs: https://www.ncbi

There s an upside to knowing your data is not backed up somewhere, and that when you delete them they 're really lost. They should offer that as privacy-conscious hosting.
