1) once hypocrite commits were accepted, the authors would immediately retract them 2) I don't think it's unethical to send someone an email that has bad code in it. You shouldn't need an IRB to send emails.

No, random anonymous contributors with cheng3920845823@gmail.com as their email address are not as trustworthy as your wife, and blindly merging PRs from them into some of the most security-critical and widely used code in the entire world

The authors were 100% in the right, and GKH was 100% in the wrong. It's very amusing to go back and read all of the commenters calling for the paper authors to face criminal prosecution. The fact is that they provided a valuable servic

That's not new, LetsEncrypt just didn't solve it. And if you think this is the only single point of failure in the stack, I have news for you.

But they are doing this all for what? Won't the market average out to the same unit price at the end of the day even if they can successfully create discriminatory spreads?

what stops anyone from creating a third party order book that allows people to submit bids and offers on price discriminated items? It can match buyers and sellers just like a stock exchange.

Generally agree with the sentiment, I basically only have banking apps, messaging apps, and a browser on my phone. I am skeptical, though, of the price discrimination claims. If McDonald's decides that the right price of a Big Mac for

I have a similar average intake to you, and I've been on it much longer, about 3.5 years. I have had periods where I go off the stuff entirely, including a whole month and a half earlier this year. I've also had periods where my i

Spectrum is typically pretty good, but this article definitely stands out as very well written. I'm guessing that's because it's written by an actual contributor to the research. Nothing beats when those guys can actually unp

>Engineers design and build things on top of the discoveries of scientists. In the last 80 or so years, this has been the case, but I don't think it's historically the norm. It just so happens that through whatever accident of

I had the same knee-jerk reaction, but the optimist in me wants to say "isn't that the point of the acquisition?" Another comment linked to the Uno Q, which looks like a Qualcomm dev kit by Arduino. Perhaps Qualcomm is trying

I can understand not realizing that ChatGPT would give a bunch of similar sounding article titles to everyone, and I can understand being a little embarrassed that you didn't realize that. But why would you feel a "personal stake&

I don't get this in the comic either: Why are you devastated that the idea you copied word-for-word is unoriginal? I don't understand what they expected.

I thought this would be like a history of their products from the punch card machines up through now, and I was very curious. When I saw that it's about their modern corpo slop services, I instantly clicked off. Sad!

It's much closer to true on a curved screen than a flat screen.

Agreed. The actual technical writing portion of the TRM leaves much to be desired.

Look up the Texas Instruments am3358. It's a tiny SOC, it was used in the beaglebone black. Its technical reference manual[1] is over 5000 pages, and it details all peripherals, all of the interconnects and every single register in the

If this goes through, would it be possible to see a consumer class-action lawsuit? I imagine there is a class of people for whom the sideloading of apps is necessary and removing it renders their phone almost useless. I'd also guess th

Why does this need to be an app at all? Wouldn't it be simpler and more accurate to just use computer vision or other sensors? Isn't this just a cartoonishly obvious ploy to get you to install some malware on your phone that track
