I have to sign up to search? Is this in production yet?

Sorry, I meant how do you make a file hidden?

How is the real hosts file rendered hidden in Explorer?

I assume is has rocket boosters capable of sustained, high speed flight and reaching orbit :) Looks closer to the Alien loader exoskeletons - still very cool.

> if you can borrow money at a negative rate you should borrow as much as you can True, but the treasury can't borrow at a negative rate. Actual yields are positive [1]. So called "real" yield is the actual yield minus a forward inflat

You're right, and I agree with you. But yes we've seen stories get changed considerably with no reference to the update. Unfortunately retroactive continuity seems to be pretty much the norm. From a publishers perspective, that's the beauty

We compare element trees directly. It would be easier to extract the text and just do a regular text diff, but this loss of element/tree info means you can't reconstruct html versions of the page with differences highlighted, which for us i

We run a web content monitoring service, every media organisation changes their articles as they get new info. No reference is ever made to these changes. It's actually really interesting seeing how stories get updated.

That doesn't work in the UK!!

Agreed. It's just content filler, of no worth whatsoever.

tl;dr: a totally speculative number.

by retube 15y ago
Makes sense, I'm sure you're right - which further invalidates the article's supposition!

tl;dr : a quantum computer could create every single pixel permutation of an image, which you could then claim copyright for. However, fundamental difference: in a qc this data is represented by a super-position of states. Which is fine, bu

No probs. And of course roll your own with Linux From Scratch: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/ A great way to really learn Linux too :)

Standard modern distros are fairly heavy, agreed. But a custom distro can be super-lightweight and still include most features you'd expect from a desktop OS. In 2003 I was running desktop redhat on an old IBM thinkpad with just 32MB of RAM

Other tech solution: you could cluster posts by content. E.g extract keywords/key phrases and group submissions that have some threshold of over-lapping terms. Of course not trivial, but an interesting project.

A fairly similar experience to buying a laptop with Windows pre-installed. Tons of junk and third-party bullshit. Multiple anti-virus bollox, browser toolbars etc. Took me an hour to clean up.

It _could_ be. It could also be any one of a 100,000 other institutions which trade treasury futures. This is not a big trade or a big deal. This article is very ill-informed nonsense.
769.
by retube 15y ago
Yeah. I'm giving the author the (probably undeserved) benefit of the doubt and assuming the trade was a short. Although I don't think it's expressly stated. (Edit: actually it is, towards the end of the article)
770.
by retube 15y ago
The author of the article has absolutely no grasp of futures or how they work. This trade is no big deal, trades this size are done all the time by all sorts of financial institutions for any number of reasons.

by retube 15y ago
This article is pure bullshit. > In one moment, an invisible trader placed a single trade that moved the most liquid debt market in the world So what? Most trades move the market, even in super-liquid ones. You hit the bid or offer in "

Does this _actually_ work though? You get the message "URL pending for removal" but does that mean it's really going to be removed? Perhaps this is just a default response. Were any non-owned sites/urls actually removed?

by retube 15y ago
Yeah well it's an unfortunate by-product of a) research institutions feeling the pressure to spin their output in a way which is consumer-friendly and b) the publishing industry turning that spin into an absurd attention-grabbing headline.

by retube 15y ago
Sensationalist headline. Actually just a candidate for supporting liquid water (and then only for some of it's fairly elliptic orbit). And it's pretty damn big, so not likely to be a rock, more like a gas giant (If it _doesn't _ have a larg

I don't get it... It's just a 404 page? Or is this an actual error?

by retube 15y ago
Yes, absolutely. I was going to add an edit to this effect. Damned if they do, damned if they don't. Anyway the running of these deficits _does_ need to be curbed. It's clear that Greece has been pretty terrible at collecting taxes and mana

tl;dr: because files are an "old" concept. Hmm. The QWERTY issue is completely incidental and a total red-herring. And just because something is old doesn't mean it should or needs to be replaced. Needless to say, no alternative is suggeste
