I would say it is fraud significantly more than 20% of the time if it is in a fashionable field (e.g. machine learning). This is a depressing realisation I came to after spending a significant amount of time (months? Perhaps more than a yea

To be fair, you opened with something that by your own words is not relevant, which is what this person was responding to. It's understandable that people respond to what you say and write, if you do not want to talk about it you shoul

Such corporations don't price things based on operating cost. They price them based on what they want to have. The two are only tangentially related (though you can bet that if the costs go up, the price will too. It's just that t

This content is text, it is extremely cheap to host. The site itself is not particularly resilient, so there is not a lot of overhead there. 10 euros a month is an absolutely ridiculous price for what probably doesn't even cost them 20

You can communicate special needs (e.g. "do not put this person in a loud room"), but not health information (e.g. "this person has epilepsy"). I struggle to think a special consideration a person could need that you cou
