It's an Indian journal, I assume it's an issue with translation.

Listen again. The British one pronounces "ai" differently, and the American ones put emphasis on different syllables.

Here's a good one: https://youglish.com/search/triskaidekaphobia/all Every person pronounces it differently.

Why does the lawyer keep bringing up "a hundred people"? Is there some kind of official policy where FB respects your privacy if you share with 99 or fewer people? Or is it some calculated legal argument to emphasize that anything

Seems RowHammer can flip bits and RAMBleed uses RowHammer to also read memory stored nearby.

Google and Facebook tend to do it as a matter of policy, and while they say it's to protect privacy and prevent abuse, it also furthers the "walled garden" effect.

What did I say that is even remotely misinformation? Nuclear power is safe "with proper precautions", I completely agree. The problem is that it hasn't even been a week since we've proven proper precautions are not being

Can we ship all the nuclear waste to your house? Don't worry, it's the safest kind of energy there is. Or maybe "safe" isn't the right term for something that also produces some of the most deadly substances that we

They do it to make money, but being that honest makes them sound like an amoral entity motivated almost solely by greed (which they are).

I see trackers for Google, comScore, Soasta, VigLink, Adobe, AK, Neilsen, and Taboola. Who knows how many more would be loaded if I didn't have ad blocking enabled...

Up until recently it was used for ad targeting.

Don't elect wealthy politicians who are in bed with industry lobbyists and watch things change overnight.

I figured since you'd never experienced it, I'd try to explain what it's like to you. For reasons I don't exactly understand, you keep trying to tell me what it's like instead! To compare it to a hallucination is a

It's not like seeing things that aren't there, it's like watching a movie, you know it's not real. It's kinda like two different visual channels, and perhaps hallucinations are what happens when people can no longer

It's nothing like hallucinating, it's more like a blank canvas that you can paint whatever you want upon instantly.

>Rust will eventually fail to the “jack of all trades, master of none” problem that C++ has. He's talking about C++ like it's some kind of failure and not one of the most widely used languages in the world. Sounds like the auth

It's "social engineering" part of information security and technically hacking. Smooth talking is often far more effective than "computer hacking".

I was kind of shocked that they discontinued their WordPress integration. I get the feeling they want their customers to be completely dependent upon Shopify, which is part of why I avoid them when possible.

They mark the end of a YML "document", but not the end of a YML "stream", which can contain multiple documents. It's the terminology that's causing confusion.

I had a client who required me to use LastPass because he didn't want me to see the the actual password. I was wondering how that was even possible, maybe some kind of magic I didn't know about. Turns out it's trivial to get

What scares me is that people are using this as an argument for why companies like Facebook and Google should tightly control everything people see and hear. To me, this is an argument for education and media reform.

Having people trust you is a concrete gain for being honest. Hiding the truth to avoid liability demonstrates that you're not trustworthy. To me, it's fundamentally unethical, though I know it's often promoted as "practi

I like the new version, Page Speed Insights actually measures page speed now. I used to get horrible scores even though pages were fully loaded in 1/3 of a second. Now I get perfect scores. I have clients that made a big deal about PSI

They do have power here, all they need to do is not secretly partner with an oppressive regime to assist them with censoring the Internet. That's quite easy to do, hell, I'm doing it right now... All you've done is framed the

I never suggested blocking 8.8.8.8, I'd think you're replying to the wrong comment but you directly quoted part of mine. I criticize Google and I get called a hypocrite for things I never said...
