I support Doctors Without Borders choice and strongly disagree with how the EU is dealing the issue; and for that matter not dealing with the related issues. Most natural way of dealing with the issue is to allow those legally escaping a co

Really not that true; meaning yes, China copies a lot, but so does everyone and being able to copy someone takes skill. Look no further that the American auto industry for a historical example of this.

Not hard to believe, but would it be possible to provide an example or two of Apple winning a patent claim in court via a ruling in China? I would find it hard to believe the for a valid claim that just because a company is Chinese that it

Thought is was already known; meaning I seen high-speed video of this behavior somewhere before. (FUN FACT: Flies see so much faster than humans that florescent lights to flies appear to be lights that're blinking on & off.)

Not really, lots of Tor servers will block various protocols for various reasons; core difference being that packet inspection would enforce network usage policy to a finer degree; lastly, anyone using Tor should assume the packers are acti

Question is if humanity would have been able to survive for the duration of those 4m years; Earth surviving humanity to my knowledge has never been the issue.

It's sad that if some attempt to do good, often it's not good enough, but if they do nothing, it's okay. It's unlikely I ever agree with how other people try to do good, but I am grateful that they try. Go some go good;

Seems to be a huge amount of speculative commentary, which is acknowledged, but to me, not a way that shows the potential variation in implementing DP. For example, Apple could easily download all the data, do a DP on the impact of adding t

What would be the number one example of something related to ham radio's use that would benefit from change and what would be better?

Legally speaking, seems like every user & station would require a callsign, which would likely be a huge barrier to adoption, create massive privacy issues, etc.

Classical war is dead. All conflicts long-term going forward will be won with economic resilience; meaning even if attacked, invaded, controlled, etc. - long-term the attacking force's culture will succumb to economic attrition. Future

Thanks, don't like to assume things, and never really thought about if there are some people that're anti-commercial pii collection, but pro gov collection; as we both would likely agree, there probably are somewhere. As for me, I

Curious, given how strongly you feel about the commercial use of personally identifiable information (pii) - how do you feel about the collection, use, sharing, etc. of pii by governments?

In my opinion - most E2E, Tor, etc are useless counter measures against state-sponsored attackers; topic of the article.

The source for the 25% of users being active in a month was from the 3rd quarter earnings report for 2015. http://venturebeat.com/2015/10/29/linkedin-now-has-400m-user...

Yes, I know, but I'm talking about a job board that's: - pay to play for big biz - free to small biz - highlights YC gigs - etc.

Seems grossly over priced on a per active user basis: ________ 26.2 billion / (425 million*25% active) = $247 per active user

Seems strange that HN doesn't just add a job board.

It would also be useful to see real past remote position descriptions - with dates that position was actively being recruited for.

What exactly do you believe people should be doing?

I would claim it's at least as old as spiritual beliefs; aka "The devil make made do it" - "Evil spirits are to blame" - etc.

Likely, since even in a situation where they were the subject of a real campaign, inducing clinical degree of paranoia would very likely be an objective.

Agree, reminds me of the movie "Pi" where the main character thinks so much about Pi that they start to see Pi everywhere they look.

Fact that it's random means it's not the same; explicitly talking about targeted efforts. Also, online efforts are not as resource intensive as in the real world. Only way this might be similar is if for training or testing reason

Having run into people like this and the fact there really are people that are the subjects of targeted psychology operations, it's a very troubling and complex topic. Guess I'd be curious if there's a way to prove to someone

Yes, that's naive, though depends on what you mean by spying. Generally speaking though, if you remove a method or source of spying that's of value, someone will find a way to get the information anyway if it's possible.

Few years back, SEC started being very agressive about finding entities making above average returns; my understanding is that if over a set amount of transactions you're making over 30% that you will get "knocked" and the au

Never understood why anyone would spend time creating any trading method given even if it did work (possible, but unlikely) the SEC would audit you and then leak how you were making the outperforming returns. Welcome any thoughts, in part b
