I think people should be able to publish whatever they'd like. Honestly, I don't fully follow Fiske's argument. There are too many undefined phrases and an explicit unwillingness to use any examples. I'd believe many eng

wyager actually introduced the word. You then said that Fiske used the term. I don't see the term anywhere in Gelman's article. In fact, Gelman uses the term in a comment on the linked page: >Frederic: >I’m as bothered by an

Funny, I don't even see the word "abuse" in Fiske's article.

They are conflicted themselves; secretly (sources won't even reveal their identities) managing board relationships and deciding on compensation matters. The question is reasonable, the secrecy isn't. The question should be address

Conspiracy to fix wages? Trafficking in insider information? And, the anonymous source doesn't give further details? I don't know what Illuminati have to do with this post, but I'm sure compliance personnel, at least, would l

The message was determined not to be spam, but regardless, Facebook constructed and sent that message . As far as I can tell from these documents, Power setup a Facebook event, then Facebook added it's own text (eg. "The Faceboo

And high judges agree. Facebook claimed[0] that emails it sent to its users were misleading, partly, because Facebook inserted "Thanks,\nThe Facebook Team" into messages it sent out as a result of Power.com's actions. Fac

Facebook brought a malicious action under the CANSPAM act when it had no basis for doing so. That action, in part, resulted in the loss of Vachani's business and livelihood. Facebook will need to compensate for the loss they caused.

Power Ventures could probably start back up from the payout that will be coming from FB when things are resolved.

The MIT license is not a copyright license (though, copyright is claimed). It is a license for unrestricted dealings in the software subject to certain conditions (no warranty or fitness, appropriate notices given, etc.).

In the US, you are free to collect any data you can observe (assuming you don't interfere with others' rights). You are also free to trade what you collect with others. On what basis could someone bring a class-action lawsuit abou

What is the problem with the MIT license and patents? The MIT license grants explicit rights to deal in the software without restriction.

Science only asks, "Have I observed something contrary to my theories?" For non-deductive theories, the only real approach is to count the number of times you observed something agreeing with your theories vs. the total number of

One cannot simply pay more on average. The demand for good engineers is high and Facebook must compete for them. I believe supply and demand with market rates is a much bigger factor on the average Facebook engineer salary than the quality

So, $55M in profit.

That is a different situation. Mylan says they did nothing wrong, but are transferring $465M anyway. In return, the government will no longer consider the matter in a lawful court. In a plea bargain, one admits to guilt.
