   I've built all kinds of things with d3, I've been using it for over 4 years. It's a seriously great library. However, there's a cognitive overhead of thinking in selections and update patterns... It's hard to remove

   I haven't read this paper, but I remember it being theorised that Mt. Gox operated on a fractional reserve by using bots to manipulate the price. That after being "hacked" and losing the coins, they kept operating even though

   Negative prices are incentive to unplug your own generator. It's distributed by nature. Centralizing control is pretty much the exact opposite of what you want in an electrical grid.

    I imagine smooshing could be thought about like pulling off packets of cards from the deck and interleaving them randomly with other packets. Assuming your hand moves a clump of cards at a time and smooshes them with another clump. I wonder

    As an Apple fan, this smells like the Apple car rumours. Moonshot projects to retain talent perhaps? Either way, AR is more suited to Apple than VR, even if more of a technical challenge.

    How does Uber anonymize the data? Does it only use subset of a trip? If you can see where and when a trip started or finished, it's definitely not anonymous enough.

    Apple's "goto fail" bug is completely different: it was not a design flaw, but a merge error. Hanlon's razor applies sufficiently. But anyone with a basic understanding of information security would know that keying by t

    Almost certainly. Kaspersky are a global cybersecurity provider. There is no room for Hanlon's razor here. This was malice, not stupidity.

    I did read it. Would it be better if I rephrased it: Crocker's rules state one's self cannot be upset to enable free speech.
