What they mean when saying PFOA-free is that it wasn't used in the manufacturing of the product. For instance if you look at pans sold at Ikea they will explicitly say in the materials section: "No PFOA (perfluorooctanoic acid) ha

In Europe at least, this would be regulation. There are max amounts on fees.

It's not free as in you are not allowed to use OSM tiling servers for commercial purposes. "OpenStreetMap’s own servers are run entirely on donated resources. They have strictly limited capacity. [...] OpenStreetMap data is free f

I find this fine bizarre. Sure, Android is dominating the European markets, but I find it to be a good thing. I am surprised that the EU commission never investigated Apple. I don't know when they stopped doing it, but Apple used to re

In the Netherlands you are often expected to remove/install floor when you move. Also, interestingly, no warm water in toilets in there either. The weirdest discrepancy between US/Can and Europe is the amount of water in and the s

Less trade due to tariffs lowers the incentive for China to a) roll over the bonds and b) buy new ones. This will hit the US federal budget and in turn be noticable for everyone.

This is more than many academic positions pay (or cost the uni) in a year; esp. in Europe. This an absurd amount of money/resources and more of a sign that this part of academia is not about outsmarting but outspending the "compe

Private information here refers to whatever insights you bring with your research. The point is that if you gain some private information (by being a quant, analyst, etc.) you would immediately trade on it and the price would then start ref

EMH that this paper refers to is about financial markets. In other areas of econ, no one is claiming that markets are efficient, in fact most of econ talks about "first best", "second best", "losses in efficiency&qu

But that's because it is being applied by people who come from classifying cat images and have little domain knowledge.

This is not really finance research so do not confuse the two. It is CS/ML with a financial application; two different things. Return predictability low in real data, even if you control for time- and firm-fixed effects.

Not only have I shared to the wrong app on multiple occasions, the direct sharing is useless. I mostly use one app for IMs, but the direct share is always populated by another app. But this is also not only Google's issue. If you direc

I used the app four times since I moved to Sweden 2 years ago. I haven't touched cash, actually I am not sure how the current notes/coins (they changed them) look like. If you shop in stores/restaurants then you use cards mos

This is not only meant for commerce like iDEAL is. If anything it is supposed to work like the 'send to phone number' services offered by ING or ABN, for instance. This is more like Swish in Sweden.

Removing eye() in favour of a new construct is weird after all this time. It seems to me like v0.7 will break a lot of my current code.

"top selling iPhone" is a relative statement, the whole pie can be shrinking and Apple could've hoped for more sales, but compared to other (8 and older) iPhones it is still doing good. The forecasts in the media were about t

This is how research in economics works. It can take even 5 years to get a paper published, although these guys seem to have written the paper quite recently. Turnaround was quick for them... Pre-publication version of the article is availa

There should be a third mapping there---"neither". I got 99% British with my normal (more or less foreign-accent-free) speach and a whooping 88% British with the heaviest Polish accent I could produce.

Welcome to the Netherlands then. Most people ride trains between the cities. It does help, however, that most of the population lives in cities that are 30-40 minutes away on a train.

It's the customers who pay the VAT, not Apple. That's why electronics bought in US where the sales taxes are generally much lower than VAT rates seem cheaper from the European perspective. A higher VAT also hits more the less priv
