The article title is "Spyware systematically used by some EU governments, MEPs find", and I don't think the submission title matches the original meaning.

Thought this was because of Mullvad! I also have this issue on FF with Linux Mint.

So it's likely that previous bonuses/raises were also based on 'old' stock prices. But since Amazon stock was (pretty much) always increasing, this means that those bonuses were consistently lower than what they should&#

I'm surprised no one (including TFA) has mentioned Trainline yet, as it addresses a lot of the issues mentioned in the comments here: - buy tickets (with easy explanations of when/where they're valid) - see which platform a t

Even in web services, the computationally-intensive bits are usually the database queries, which are also not handled by pure Python.

(0 experience in offsite backups so apologies if this question seems a bit dumb) I'm confused - can this be used as a simple cloud storage platform, or are there limits on how often you can upload/download data? If I can SSH into

One of my favourite ever YouTube channels, that sadly isn’t around anymore, explored this concept with the ‘Fresh Prince of Bel-Air’ theme song. If anyone’s interested check CDZA out! https://youtu.be/LMkJuDVJdTw

Hey, I'm in the middle of building a large scraping application - would you mind if I asked you for some advice? Email in bio!

Is there somewhere to read more about this? It sounds very interesting, are there any places/systems that are considering using this, or even talking about it?

A new iPhone SE has flagship specs for $400-500, and Androids cheaper than that (and even much costlier ones) struggle to last 2-3 years - an iPhone easily lasts 4+. I don't want to turn this into an Android vs iOS debate, but want to

The only paper I see referenced talking about the vitamin D-COVID link is [0]. It doesn't look too polished, and the methodology seems a bit lacking - I'm not a professional though, so if someone is please correct me. Assuming the

Yes but nowhere near 1 cent per email, a sum that is still very little for legitimate users (especially considering the high likelihood of getting it back), but much higher than what current spammers pay.

I'm studying Quantum Computing for Computer Scientists [1] - until I found this book, I thought anything covering quantum would be too physics oriented. As the title implies, this book is nothing like that, covering all the mathemati

You very much don't need to "essentially be a lawyer" to be able to include ads - services like AdMob have easily configurable SDKs for getting GDPR-compliant consent. It's really no more than a few lines of code to resp

Yeah, you definitely need a prescription in the UK, though my eye test was free so I don't know about that one. Maybe it's because I'm a student? Not sure. But he is right about it in Italy - no prescription required.

I'm interested in the downsides of using Lombok, since the article seems to only focus on its positives and makes it seem like I should download it and start using it right now. Is there anyone here with Lombok experience that wants to

People will do drugs regardless, the threat of jail has, historically, not worked. What Portugal showed was that punishing them is actually counterproductive.

This isn't supposed to be implemented now: these are all pilot studies to see if - in the future - UBI makes sense. We don't yet know whether automation will replace most jobs (I'm of the opinion that it will), but if it do

The assumption you're making with most of your points is that, currently, data is only safe from governments/hackers because its not readily available to users, and for some reason it being not easily accessible by users means its

Because they're not failing due to misunderstanding the law, they're getting sued because their 'compliance' to the GDPR is against the spirit of it, and in most cases is actually in direct violation of multiple clauses.

Does anyone know how this compares to Construct 2 & 3? I've only used Construct for simple 2D HTML5 game development, and haven't really heard of any other HTML5 game engines.

That seems right - they only mention LEDs as a possible factor for the increase in disturbance of circadian cycles, as people keep them on at night more than they used to with filament bulbs. The study isn't about LEDs themselves.
