Yeah, and for extra points using that same style of misleading headlines for his title. Would it really have been so bad to put a "nutritional" into the title to produce something related to the actual topic?

Happily it turns out that these new rules only apply in cases where the EU provides an important service: the legality of the trade itself in the first place.

Pretty much sums it up. Instead of a simple form and some "I have an unusual address format" check box that gives a more free form field we have people abandoning all restrictions. And being burned by the total anarchy tried, the

An excellent example of a pointless data visualisation. I wanted to view a list of titles by date. What I get is a time series of top page visits shown as a faux heat map, with titles written on top. I get it, a list with 365 entries is qui

If you send mail to addresses outside of freenet I can't see why you would expect better anonymity than with any old throw away account.

Still, I'm surprised they bother with github being such a specialized website. Do you know of other surprising examples of sites getting takedown request because of "immoral behaviour" (or whatever the name is)? Does the suic

So is it your livejournal that is linked to in the "suicide.rst" post? What's up with the bans on suicide mentions? Is the topic growing because the public feels without hope as the poem seems to suggest, or is Roskomnadzor j

This is a really strange phenomenon, and I feel like there is a bigger context in which this exchange between the citizens and the state should be viewed. Looking at the first takedown, there is the conspicuously named account "russia

Well, the strongest connection is probably to the recent DOE plan to spend $30 million on the more fringe fusion researchers. That certainly would provoke people doing that sort of thing to call attention to their research. What caused the

Is this an opinion piece? I thought techcrunch was a news site, but this is so opinionated without any clear indication of being an editorial I'm not sure anymore. Maybe its one of those sites where the editorial stance is so brazen in

The rule of thumb is that most languages are rarely used (since there are a finite number of users), so if you support only the most used languages you necessarily drop support for most languages. Then depending on exactly how popular a

The wonky thing being that they would have to pay tax on that money if they take it to the US, but they've already made all that effort not to pay tax on the income in the country of origin! (sad face)

The state already needs to keep track of companies for tax purposes, so it seems strange that it couldn't simply void any trademark owned by a company that died. Then define point of death as a company not paying taxes for two years an

The article explicitly mentions that only PhD studies are free in Sweden (for non-EU citizens).

Yeah, the article mentions in passing that it could be artistic choice. The observations at the end, where it appears it might be more natural to take the "wrong" stance when holding a running pose is probably the main reason. Co

So they tell you to "reclaim" your data by letting them sell your personal data? Datapimp seems an more apt name for them, implications included.
