I read the article, but I'm a little confused. Health data is generally freely for sale in the USA, as long as you store it securely. Is there some reason to suspect they are lying when they say the data is stored according to federal

So... you are saying: "We can't trust police, let's give them more powers"? I think your expectations on how many crimes a DNA database would solve is vastly over-estimating. For example, even if a rape case collected DN

If you read that, and think this means they don't cooperate with legal requests, then you've really made a huge mistake. They "resist". All that means is they ask for a proper legal document, such as a warrant. Warrants

I think the idea of this post is contradictory. Who suffers from government lists of potential terrorists, criminals, and their relatives? It's not a "white people" problem. That would be a problem faced primarily by dark-ski

Yes and no. Walmart often is not going to have food as fresh as a Farmers market or community store. But farmers may feel the need to shop there anyway due to prices. Perhaps they still wanted fresh produce too, but because they weren'

Kinda boring to be honest. The signal they are sending is very rudimentary (2 bits). And the communication is only one directional. This is more of a tech-demo than any sort of break through. The article even discusses other teams that are

Somehow the results seem dissatisfying. This really feels like it should be measuring the area under the curve, at the very least. Measuring "peak to peak" seems silly.

This argument doesn't hold water. This assumes that depression is purely something you must be born with, and you can't get it from environmental factors. The thing is, if you really lived for hundreds of years, society would be r

Blizzard presumably has control of their own checkbook. They didn't just ban him from playing in China. Some of the tournaments he participated in were in other countries, like Singapore. To suggest that China should be able to cause a
