You can use laser printer toners to get same effect! They are magnetic as well and might be easier to get. It's also easy to get better contrast - apply transparent tape to magnetic strip, remove the tape and put it on top of white pap

Not really, depends on definition of "close", i.e. how you measure distance. If closeness means distance in search space, then you're right, but it also could mean local vs global are close in value being optimized, but they are located far

Another anecdote: investor decided not to invest in a startup because his astrologist advised against it. The date company founded was not a "good" day. Yes, investor actually called founders to ask for this piece of info, as far as i reme

It's quite funny and genius. Article says that malware used by Georgia is not specified, but from original PDF report it's clear that they have used his own exploit to attack him! From PDF: "then gave Cyber Attacker Fake ZIP Archive with hi

I don't think Benford's law has anything to do with human psychology, it's more of mathematical property that applies to random sample from certain distributions.
