If they have access to URLs that's even more bad than it seems. The URLs are often registration form urls and can have secret data as url parameters. LastPass needs to comment on this. It looks pretty bad.

Fair enough, the comparable number in car insurance is 97%: The personal auto insurance combined ratio rose by 1.4 percentage points in 2015 to 97.3 percent for a group of 10 publicly traded insurers. http://www.insurancejourna

Disputed at best, the opposite reality at worst (i.e. it bent the cost curve up): http://blogs-images.forbes.com/theapothecary/files/2016/04/S... It was the recession.

For Intel cards default setup works, but is not optimal, i.e. it is slow. In particular transmit aggregation is turned off by default. `sudo modprobe iwlwifi 11n_disable=8` http://support.system76.com/articles/wireless&

I'll add one more - analytics. It's the only way to get accurate impression numbers. Which is a useful thing to trend for brand keywords.

Do you know of a study that shows real cost breakdown of medical care by payer type, including these cross subsidies to Medicare? Somebody must have put this together.

You misunderstand the grandparent post. He is saying that you don't get to change rules of economics. But you (in this case the government) does get to setup the rules of the marketplace. And it is this combination of basic econom

The idea of academic cheating being bad is not a universal value. In Soviet K-12 it was more like in NASCAR - cool in moderation so long you don't get caught. Don't know about college. In fact there is no word for [academic] &quo

Thanks for posting a link to the methodology. Does this sentence "Northpointe does offer a custom test for women, but it is not in use in Broward County. " imply that the base COMPAS model does not take gender into account?
