I seriously doubt shareholders agree with her angle. > her best chance is to hope that Facebook will simply try to minimize the legal issue to avoid making her into too much of a martyr I suspect the opposite. They will attempt to make

It shouldn't be on the HN front page at all. He's literally presenting zero evidence. This is just some professor's personal opinion.

> a professor of medicine of a reputable university That is not nearly good enough. This is HN. We should be posting peer-reviewed research results, not just-any-professor-in-the-field's-feelings.

No masks in schools - no distancing. They are not even doing the basics.

That notice is toes the line between disclosing the absolute minimum and remaining compliant. They never deny being hacked, but never admit it either. ...and they pretend that it was likely all the users' fault.

This problem isn't specific to Coinbase.

I am unconvinced that Coinbase didn't have some sort of breach here. I don't believe they disclosed everything. Multiple people I know with Coinbase accounts were solicited by the hackers - none of them have ever mentioned to any

There is a big difference between hacking a Coinbase client contact database, and hacking THE Coinbase account database. The thing that might have been hacked could have easily been a CRM or email marketing system - possibly even via some 3

I'm not crossing a street with you if you're carrying $500K in your backpack everywhere you go. Physical possession of wealth is a bad long term strategy. Eventually people WILL find out, and you WILL become a target. One of the

I'm skeptical of their breach notification for the following reasons... If they were certain this was PURELY a phishing campaign against their users, then they had no need to disclose to the government. Their wording in their disclosur

Yes, I also received several obviously fake SMSs in June 2021, so the window is clearly longer than what they are saying.

The issue is that a few corporations control a majority of global human communications, and are accountable to no one for their decisions of what to censor/promote. This is dangerous to democracy. If we do not subject them to the will

It's just that it's a weak defense because the prosecution will make the argument that you committed your crime in one of those periods where you held malicious beliefs, in an emotional state. They only need to demonstrate that yo

The issue is that it is very complex. You fat stores what you eat, so a diet will often not result in the significant lowering of things like cholesterol, until you've burned the fat around your belly. ...and as you said, your body c

No, this is not the conclusion of the article. Just because there is no correlation to EXTREME brain dysfunction, that does not imply there is not measurable cognitive impairment. In fact, the article highlights the need for further resear

It's not one data point. There are many many documented asteroid impacts. If you assume that hitting ANY spot on Earth is randomly distributed (or at least randomly outside the poles), and you know the rate of meteor impacts (even wi

The average time between two events, is not the same as taking a window just barely including two data points.

Not in this case since we're talking about atmospheric bolite explosions, and not ocean impacts from larger asteroids - which on the scale in question - are far less likely.

You have to be careful. Relationships sour, and nothing is funny when read in court. One thing is for certain, NEVER put jokes or sarcasm in writing. I've read way too many of those in court.

Having read many many court documents, I couldn't agree with you more. I have seen literally hundreds of comments/jokes/emails/phone call recordings/etc taken out of obvious context and submitted as evidence - often

Impacts of this magnitude exploding near enough to the surface to cause significant damage on land are not common at all - perhaps on the order of once per century - given the recording of modern technology over the last ~150 years (obvious
