Well, actually it is a good characterization of the leave campaign, which won the vote and thus a valid analogy.

The numbers in the aggregated top list don't add up. ARK for example is listed with fewer revenues for the whole year than for June alone. This does not add confidence in the validity of other figures in this post.

From the comments: A PITRA (point-in-time readiness assessment) is sufficient to begin issuing if the formal audit follows in a timely fashion. It's not possible to have a formal audit of the issuance process unless you are issuing; re

This! In my opinion Thiel does not think far enough and doesn't talk about the real question: Is fission even (economically) competitive? In my opinion (and from what I've read on this subject), it is not and won't be in the

I have tried both, Bokeh (without the server) and plot.js (their python lib offers a JSON encode option so that you can use their Python lib with plotly.js without sending data to plotly). However, I found both to be very similar and still

Strange. I disabled "scripts from 3rd party sites" and "frames from 3rd party sites" by default in ublock origin and this site successfully loads 329 external JS ressources from other sites (none are manually enabled). D

Totally agree. At least 1 Uppercase means 99% of people just use an uppercase first character for their standard password. 1 number means they append 1,2 or a year and 1 special character means they append an exclamation mark. Entropy adde

Well, I would not call it a huge success yet. Certainly it gained some traction and lots of people use it here (I'm from Germany), but in the past it was repeatedly shown that BlaBla Car's business model has no lock-in at all and

How can Renaissance Technologies (and others) exist, if EMH is correct (in the general case)? How is your bet structured and can you explain your opinion?

Wow. May I ask how old you are? I can't understand your sentiment at all, especially when posting as "bayesianhorse". Don't you have any desire to change "your" country for the better? Do you really think Merke

I can't find any pricing details on your page before signing up - this is bad practice in my view. I won't invest time trying out your platform if I have no idea about costs.

I agree. Mods/Op should add "(2013)" to the title to avoid confusion (but as others have pointed out, the article is not only old but wrong in important points).

This is just wrong. Android forks were never successful (see eg Amazon's fire phone) an will never be - the lock-in factor is incredible. In the opposite direction, more and more customers want "pure" software and good hardwa
