That only works if you have friends to play both your teammates and the enemy team which is a very tall order. Most people play with strangers overall, and most people who play with friends just have them as teammates against stranger oppon

I actually don't see how "gamification" (adversarial websites exploiting loopholes in ranking) can even result in making ad revenue lower excepting the scenario where it makes Search itself less useful and therefore less used

> Yes, the gamification will be terrible. So what? Is maximal advertising revenue for monopolies societally important? I don't really see how gamification being terrible will only cause ad revenue to drop. Surely it will also make t

I'm curious why you think a "difference in kind" rather than simply "difference in degree" must exist between us and dogs.

I got that stat from caniuse.com. Obviously it will differ depending on your site

I think it depends if a lot of pages start breaking. Right now it's not happening at scale, but I don't see them having any reason not to refork Blink if more "only tested on Chrome" sites start breaking on Safari. I&#

I meant if the bid-ask spread must be minimum 1 cent, then is it true that bid can't be lower than 1 cent as long as ask is semipositive?

Even if Blink and Webkit are separate (and they are still clearly closer than Gecko), we're getting to a Blink monoculture except for the iOS holdout (which is still only ~5% of all traffic, but generally high value and you're pre

They have somewhere around 750 employees still after the layoffs; it's hard to understand your comment that that both says they should have 150 employees but reducing their teams is a bad decision.

I think the issue is you'll only achieve restricting things to cloned licenses instead of arbitrary fakes (which might still be an improvement).

It seems very strange; can a share not be worth less than 1 cent, or can it for ask but not bid?

Right: the grandparent was about north of $500k though which apparently seniors don't make, only higher levels. I'm surprised I was downvoted there?

I think the alarming thing is that it doesn't have a digital signature, meaning that scanning the barcode isn't a useful check if an ID is fake.

Levels.fyi seems to indicate senior total comp as more like 300k in Bay Area for FAANG.

I think I'm still missing the gap: hats have value and art has value. Collectors collect certain hats and certain art in a way that is disconnected from their underlying value; it seems like grand-op was legitimate to mention art then,

by esrauch 6y ago
I find this idea curious; what's different with collecting art than other collecting? As an outsider it appears to be "unique collection syndrome" no different than any other, where the artistic value is present in reproducti

I'm not sure about that; the mass of the moon to more decimal places would surely require actual research potentially at great expense, but the resulting number shouldn't be copyrightable since the resulting number is a fact about

Well, many slaves themselves were men forcibly taken from Africa; more from Ghana region but also from Nigeria.

That sounds just like YouTube and how I presumed Vine worked though? E.g. that the majority of users don't set up any follow graph, and that most content users view is algorithmically-discovered and not like Twitter, Facebook, Instagra

I kind of get it but it seems like a circular proof isn't it? As in, it seems that you are citing Cantor's Diagonal as a necessary precondition for the argument to hold for reals and not rationals. Specifically the "it will c

Can you explain which part of that line of reasoning doesn't apply to rationals, which are countable?

I'm not sure if this is what the parent comment meant, but it seems reasonable that it's not a lucrative path to focus on anyone who doesn't already have a functional business without you. Partnering with that existing coff

I'm curious about this stance; are you worried specifically about people stealing money from you? Because outside of that, the privacy.com-third-parties (and then third parties they might sell data onward to from there) seem more str

Your citation of an antifa mass shooting doesn't appear very compelling; the Wikipedia article explicitly indicates no political motive in the shooting. It says he separately may have claimed support for antifa but the article also ind

Perhaps the refund-rate is higher on $100 apps than $1 ones? If you find out your kid made an unauthorized purchase of $2 you're not likely to refund it, if its $100 you definitely will.

If your name matches a brand of a car it might be rational to sell that brand; assuming it's otherwise a completely arbitrary choice, it probably helps name recognition and memory, since some customers will probably mention it as a mil
