Obvious answer: because this is the American lawsuit for breaking American laws and there is another separate South African one for breaking South African laws.

The fines are more public. But low fines are otherwise pretty indistinguishable from "here is some money for you to look elsewhere". As explained in other threads, McKinsey made almost the same amount of profit (adjusted for infla

If you claim for the past three years that it will happen any day now, then I won't believe you about the next three years. Simple as that.

That is not "on the flip side" but "now that the damage is done".

Below average students and as long as the average is high enough they are still very competent. A bad teacher instead gives you a bimodal distribution and just doesn't bother teaching those students.

Doesn't follow. Bell curve in, shifted bell curve out. Ideally this also tweaks the variance a bit. In other words: Some students flourish despite their teachers, some flourish because of them.

Caveat here is that "talent" and "dedication" is linked to speed at least in the beginning. For instance, any student can learn calculus given enough time and advice even starting from scratch. However, the syllabus want

Well, there is also Facebook or Amazon. But pretty much yes. Chrome is a very large, very expensive product to develop with very unclear profit perspective once disassociated from Google.

About seven different things. The whole oversimplification that it has to be one single thing has been a drift in policy (over a few decades) in combination with trying to rewrite history books. The fact that you are even asking the questio

No, that might be the word origin but not how it is actually used. Just like "decimate" nowadays does not require a factor 10. So instead of "10x" substitute "by a large enough factor or margin to make a significant

Short reality check. Browsers support default "no" since forever. The websites just refuse to accept it and insist on wasting your time out of spite. So modest proposal: Make these websites pay 575€ million/year for wasting c

That does not seem to actually be "in a docker container"? It is just using docker to run the VM software (qemu with kvm) and runs macOS in that VM. It is conveniently packaged up, but the title is very, very misleading.

Then you should have a stronger notion of "explanation". Why were these specific neurons activated? Simplest example: OCR. A network identifying digits can often be explained as recognizing lines, curves, numbers of segments etc..

That would be weird, so it is obviously not the case. That is because you are quoting only half of the (excerpt of the) point.

Glue e.g. in bamboo spatulas, porosity and bacteria, hardness for scraping etc. Usually you would use different materials for different tasks.
