   It'd be overkill to submit a PR for this so: it should be "to the best OF our knowledge" in the first line. I wish organisations would provide IntelliJ configuration files (or similar) when releasing such style guides as well

   As rostigerpudel stated, the biologist confirmed the bounty in writing. Anyhow, while IANAL, bounties are regulated by German law in (among others) BGB §657-661a. Mostly §661 and §661a. You can find a translation of those paragraphs here:

   In Germany, bounties are relatively strictly regulated by law in terms of what you may and may not do etc. Therefore, if the bounty itself was valid in the sense of the law, then - AFAIK - there's an obligation to pay up.

    What exactly is "compiled for production" supposed to mean in the feature description?

    Because this way you only read the data in once and don't need to make any changes to it which allows you to pick different data structures.

    Was said lawsuit also taking place in Germany? IANAL, but my understanding of the German copyright law (being a citizen of said country) is that such a proof is not a possible solution.

    I find it more and more concerning that newspapers who receive these kinds of leaks decide to withhold most of them or only publish them in troves over a long period. The effort required for publishing them is indubitably huge (blacking out

    Woah. Haxe is still around? I think Haxe made great sense from a game developer perspective a few years ago, but nowadays with JS being almost ephemeral and a fair amount of decent non-JVM and non-C/C++ alternatives around, I just wond

    Not sure whether it was different in the beginning, but nowadays, reviews are only displayed after both parties have submitted theirs - or once the 14 day window for submitting reviews has expired.

    "Excoin is still under DDOS attack which makes it very difficult to investigate the causes of these issues." This makes little sense to me.

    Regarding the apps, however, I'd argue that the PrivacyGuard functionality of ClockworkMod and so on can severely restrict their "spying" functionality as far as making it unusable.

    Have a look at the non-heatmap pages. They seem to be a copy of each other down to the order of the various parameters; even the labels tend to be identical or slightly rephrased...
