For that matter "untargeted" in this case just means "not targeted using unrelated viewer data." There's a significant amount of targeting that can take place by targeting based on the content and site. If anythin

Beyond just the breach, I think Equifax's business would be difficult under GDPR? One of the major problems with the breach is that, if you are worried about Equifax's security, you can't just choose to not let them store you

Do you note this somewhere on your sites so that non-EU customers are also aware you're doing this? While I know you believe that blocking EU customers over GDPR doesn't mean that you don't care about personal data, many of u

At least in Los Angeles, this is not only legal but, in many cases, the only legal way to make a left turn.

If we are to go much further on the technological side of this, I have to wonder: rather than just using a calculator rather than a table, what could be done with just a phone that could combine software with a clock, an accelerometer, and

In my case: my frequent travel by train is around 3 to 3.5 hours one-way, on routes that would be around 1h40m to 2 hours by car. Using a $0.30/mile figure for driving, the train is around the same price, or a bit cheaper, than drivin

That depends on what you mean by "independent." There is a space between standard faculty and hermit researcher. Depending upon the field, you can do research, publish, go to conferences, have a network of peers, without being st

If you are actually trying for academia (and are considered as have a good chance of doing so), rather than being in academic wrappings around professional education, you should have consistent TA/RA/fellowships, and while it can

So are you saying that your non-profit was not an exempt organization? Again, the tax you refer to does not apply to exempt non-profits, such as public charities and private foundations.

No, the minimum franchise tax you refer to (not alternative minimum tax, a completely different tax) does not apply to every company in the state. In particular, it does not apply to non-profits with exempt organization status, which are

If you put a frog in cold water and gradually heat the water, the frog will jump out ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiling_frog ). The premise of that analogy is widely considered to be completely false.

I actually did ask about this at one doctor's office, and they let me know I was welcome to decline the arbitration clause (the document even noted that option), but that the doctor would refuse to see me. This has appeared to be the c

It's worth noting that the person behind it is a humorist and cartoonist, and while I expect that he'll actually sharpen a pencil if you pay him, it is almost certainly not meant to be taken as a serious method of pencil sharpenin

Keep in mind that the definition of "disabled veteran" for the purpose of government contracts, while often involving actual disabled veterans, can also be very different, as in the case of Braulio Castillo, who legally obtained h

This has more to do, I think, with it being an instrument that is extremely hard to play. It's very difficult to move from note to note, and extremely difficult to stay in tune, especially in a setting with large numbers of people arou

This is what happens with media coverage of pharmaceutical development, and often science in general. Journalists want stories that people can relate to, that don't have the uncertainty that is inherent in science, and that will grab t

It's always great to see new approaches to pharmaceutical development. It's a field that's desperately in need of a better approach. I do have to wonder, however, when having a focus on neurodegenerative diseases that are lar

I'm interested to know what the authors think about the problem that could be called vote splitting or support buying, which would be akin to vote buying in one-person-one-vote system. This seems particularly relevant because, unlike m

I've always thought it illustrative to compare the NUKEMAP results for Little Boy and the Tsar Bomba at Hiroshima. It gives a good indication of just how much more destructive and terrifying warheads became: where Little Boy destroyed
