I wouldn't want to be associated with such things not because I'm afraid of being lynched but because I've learned that it's demeaning to people. Pitchforks and pile are the excesses of a generally good movement to excis

Yeah sorry if I'm unclear or misinterpreting. My comment is about the researcher not the person I replied to. I do agree that it's surprising behaviour to regular users of PDF that it usually maintains a history of sorts. Apps sho

It's not only common it's still the way PDFs are usually saved. Open a PDF in a text editor (PDFs are text not binary files) and you can see any edits appended as "trailers".

This is by design and not surprising at all if you read even a tiny bit about PDF. It's in fact the default save method in nearly every PDF capable software. Rewriting the PDF is in fact the less common method. I'm surprised a res

You edited your post to remove the Japan comparison. Why would you do that?

While Japan's legal system is certainly deserving of criticism, who's isn't?, this stat is thrown around without any understanding of what it really means. What is the conviction rate in your country of residence? What does c

The best way to appreciate it is to learn the history and immerse yourself in the culture. Contemporary art is not typically created for instant gratification or understanding but rather for an audience familiar with the world within which

This is so important. Symbols matter and these words carry too much symbolic baggage. A rose by any other name would smell as sweet, so let us just rename the rose and get on with it.

They are also for the hard to market, varied diet but largely fruit and vegetables, moderate exercise, little or no alcohol, and regular checkups. I'm failing to some degree on these, I admit.

I replied above but it was meant for you. I'll leave it, perhaps it might help the parent understand why there is much value in knowing about the people behind the science.

On of my favourite radio programs is The Life Scientific from the BBC. It explores both the person and the science and leads to a wonderful insight and admiration for the people and the sciences they work within. I highly recommend it and a

To be fair, that seems to be over claiming based on an extrapolation not solid evidence. Possible, yes, actually true? Not yet demonstrated, imho.

If they have then they are using it exceedingly sparingly. I strongly suspect it would be impossible to use it to any moderate degree without being found out in one way or another. I know this is a very very poorly worded question :) but I
