Will it still start recursing and deleting most of the stuff owned by your user? That's arguably more important than the system files!

I suppose, but I didn’t vote on it either way.

Because it is irrelevant. The concentration of power is one thing, but the complaints here are against the shameless rent-seeking. Open access publishing would not take away from anything the OP is extolling the values of.

In theory, no. There is no reason to think this neural net will output every possible string given enough time. That'd be quite unexpected.

Strange reference. Is that just meant to be an arbitrary celebrity or does xqcow have some particular relevance here I'm missing?

Is there a phrase coined for responding to the title of a post, while ignoring all content?

I see, but these "receipts" are just emails. I would be extremely surprised if someone else's emails are getting routed to your gmail inbox. Seems very unlikely...

The other person probably just entered OP's email address. I don't really get what OP is saying but make sure to note that periods are normalized out.

What I don't get is where does App Annie get its data? Implied here is that app developers hand it over, but what do they get in return? And is that the primary source of App Annie's data?

I know HN has special rules for formatting certain URLs. Like Twitter links get the username added on and apparently research.google.com gets a subdomain (Or maybe all of Google?). Turns out this link is actually from colab, a repository of

Technically it says "We'll invest $100k in the best entrant if you end up starting a company". I guess not bad if you're already working on this?
