It's definitely a GDPR breach, but it may not necessarily be reportable to the data regulator. Imho it should definitely be reported to the data protection officer first before going to the regulator. Most frontline staff have no ide

It was the oil exchange traded funds (ETFs) who trade the oil contract that suddenly found themselves trapped between owning oil contracts and not being able to offload them in time for delivery. Commodity prices are based on the delivery o

The law is going to have to catch up here. Jay-Z has worked very hard to make his 'voice fingerprint' have value. Having listened to the deepfake, it's an extremely accurate copy of Jay-Z's voice. To what degree does

It might seem odd but I had a profound philosophical awakening playing Nier: Automata. You 'experience' Kierkegaard's philosophy in the game along with other philosophies which could be spoilers if anyone decides to play it.

Protecting my purchasing power and accumulating wealth has worried me since 2008. I initially looked long and hard at trying to implement my own copy of Ray Dalio's "All Weather Portfolio". I really recommend reading up as m

Inflation happens when you increase money supply and have velocity of money. With the global lockdown, you're not taking into account the demand and supply curve will shift down to a new lower price equilibrium. In other words, in the

imho we are going to see something like both scenarios... scenario 1, then scenario 2. Also, when you say "in fact, the more money the Fed prints, the stronger the dollar", I don't think this is quite the case. The supply of

Also the Blizzard fanbase has put pressure on the company to uphold its own stated principles, which quite frankly Blizzard didn't, and arguably still hasn't upheld. I'd be surprised if less than 80% of Blizzard's fan ba

So if Dalio is right, what can we do? I'm interested in what others here on HN have to say. My gut feeling is that you are best served creating financial assets to capture the transfer of wealth and then store that wealth in a non fi

I just don't think there is any of the original Blizzard left, except maybe the artists. WoW has tanked in gameplay, the Diablo franchise has been starved, and then forced into something it's not... Heroes of the Storm has been k

It's a soft peddle statement drafted by the PR department hoping the mainstream media would pick it up. There are too many contradictions between: a) what was said in the statement, and Blizzard's statement made on Chinese social

I can't verify this but a video game YouTube channel I subscribe to has reported that the following statement was released on Chinese social media by Blizzard representatives: "We are very angered and disappointed at what happened

Well imho "Blizzard" is Blizzard in name only, really it is Activision now. Again, imho, "Blizzard" is only interested in squeezing every last bit of profit it can and will stop at nothing to do so. To be fair, "B

It's not lunacy as society has forgone due process to the point that Harvard Law adjudicators, who are women no less, are sounding the alarm. If you can't imagine it happening to you, say it happens to your father, or your brothe

It is a sad thing to say, but the simple solution to this alarming trend of rescinding consent after having consensual sex is to record the audio of your interactions with the opposite sex. A voice-activated recorder that can store months

Thanks, I totally missed this piece of news and have fallen to bias myself! I gave up monitoring Al Quds day in 2018 after making a complaint to the BBC that got a boilerplate response. I just don't have the time or the resources to

Well Al Quds day might be perceived as news worthy due to Hezbollah being officially considered a terrorist organisation by the United Kingdom along with the United States, the European Union, the Arab League, the Gulf Cooperation Council,

I still find it useful to read mainstream media, even 'free' publications like Metro and the Evening Standard in London. What I do is not read them for news per se, but a sort of high level scan of what the publication's bia

Exactly, that is why I limit the fish to only once per week. As for Omega replacement, chia seeds are high in Omega-3 fatty acids (as well as other good stuff), but I haven't looked at algae supplements. It really is an area I need t

Thing is I don't drink that often. Maybe two or three times a month, and not heavy drinking either... just a few pints after a Meetup or a glass of wine with a restaurant meal.

Sorry I have no idea of the calorie content. It seems like a hot topic in the discussion is calorie counting, but I never did it. I just ate whenever I felt like it, until I was full, during my 8-hour feeding window. Perhaps I was consum

It sounds like you know a lot more about this stuff than me. It is my fault in so much as I should have used more precise language. What I meant by 'calorie counting is a myth' is that a calorie reduction diet is a myth. Sorr
