I could imagine a user using Google just to circumvent the category hierarchy of a site like Ebay, e.g. searching for "Ebay washing machines". If this user clicks an ad on the result page, it is super painful for Ebay.

Many SEO techniques are in line with the user's best interest. Sitemaps, Keywords, accessibility (clean source code) etc. help Google to understand the content of your page better. That's the reason why people like Matt Cutts exist. Of cour

One thing that certainly changed is that more women are buying video games - potential clients, that might dislike to control the anatomic equivalent of a sex doll.

If you play speed chess, latency might become a significant problem (depending on your skills/speed). edit: I wanted to comment on the parent comment. Sorry.

This would get them into big troubles, at least in the EU.

Hm, I don't think it fits the pattern. The most reported Chinese hacking was about espionage, not bringing down websites. Most of the time, DDOS is either related to politics (newspapers, federal agencies etc.) or related to blackmailing (m

Most of these apartments appear to be somewhat clean. I would totally life in such a place for some time without being worried about my health. SHARED facilities in similar settings tend to end up very dirty and problematic (or at least I e

20% of your net income, so it's half as bad :) Plus, if your cool startup should not succeed and you get ill: Don't worry, everything will be fine :)

I am not an expert on tractor drivers' genders, but when I meet a female engineer over 30 in Western Germany, there is a chance > 80% her roots are in Eastern Germany.

Look for some Communities in your field of interest. That way, G+ has become a great place to discover interesting content, at least for me.

I can only speak about Germany, but there still are tons of catalogs, registers and databases (both in print and online), listing companies that supply specific goods. I am not sure about the US equivalent of Handelskammern or Chambre de Co

Sounds like a very fair pricing to me. For 600USD p.a. I can boost my technical qualifications in all directions. Guess I'll use your platform sooner or later!

It's just another layer of threat. Nothing substantial will happen in NK, they know the can only lose. My best guess is that it's all propaganda aimed at the people in NK to secure the future of the elite.

You have to multiply that by your chance of winning (and account for the risk). I even have to bring my own material for CNC!

It would be cool if I could click anywhere on your comment and get to the "reply" page - except if I click on the small "link", a nested link.

If they can raise their prices by x without harming their business, why haven't they done it already?

If MS raises its prices, it will weaken their market position - that's the punishment for their malbehavior.

It's a high fine, but on the other hand, EU did not ask for much. I am sure MS will spend some more energy on implementing court orders in future.

Does Google actually ask for validation of user names? I prefer real names for aesthetic reasons, but if someone chooses to make up a false name, i wouldn't bother.

The prison rape jokes are especially noteworthy, as many people now seem to assume that getting raped as an inmate is indeed normal.

Sure, but shouldn't the consequence be to do more, instead of less? Not every debt is settled with 100$ / month, but it's a start. There are some arguments that any charity is doing more harm than good, but I always feel that's a reasoning
