I'm not sure there is a more natural way, but if you install DuckDuckGo as default search engine, then searches which use their !bang syntax to redirect to a Google search are via encrypted.google.com. Example: !g search query

Thanks. I'd like to make some comments on the paper - it is very readable, even for non-ML folk - first author was an intern at Google. Cool for him to have a project like this handed to him. - paper is quite long and I don't thin

I read this quote in the other thread where there was a discussion on the origins of English language and the loss of some characters in the alphabet. In that context, this quote made sense. Apart from the first line, this quote doesn'

Excellent. I see it fit to change the URL to this one. On a tangential note, the NYT article has no extra information and sources this openly accessible link. I think it's outrageous the Times has the guts to put this article behind a

An interesting article and "keys to the White House", but nowhere does he "double down" on a Trump victory. If anything he's saying "anything is possible" for this election. Glad the headline here is not t

I cannot believe this "study" was performed by 3 people who, in all, interviewed 23 people of whom only 12 are using TOR. This sounds like a really hollow research paper. Actually the whole Wikipedia-editor-who-uses-TOR demographi

Can someone enlighten me on the use case for Gmail for business? You're basically paying 5$ per month per user to have Google serve ads based on your companies emails, right? I would, as a company, never allow anyone such unfettered

Another fun fact: this actually happens with (cell) phone calls. You don't send your speech over the line, instead you send some parameters over the line which are then, at the receiving end, fed into a white(-ish) noise generator to

Does it, though? If I understand correctly the exponential distribution means we will have an expected waiting time of X years between two occurences but does it also hold when there is just a single event? I mean to say that the introduc

Sorry, my post might not have been clear enough. What I meant is that (Kosintev, 2014) already dated the species to ~30,000 years old two years ago. This new publication merely confirms that.

I know the title says that this fossil confirms that the species were alive much later than anticipated, but it is not quite clear from the text of the article on Syracuse (or I misread?) that there was an earlier discovery of this specie

I wonder how well this corresponds to the classic Heatmap xkcd comic; i.e. is the distribution of mentions not just a proxy measure for the geographical location of HN users..? Surely, you're more likely to submit a post about your hom

Good point. However, the dictionaries also need to be transferred to the user and a MITM could easily replace this with his own (flawed) dictionary. Same point: JavaScript injection/modification. HTTPS doesn't guarantee that the d
