No, that is not what is happening. Spain is a state where the majority of the people wants to belong to the state. Catalonia would be a state where half of the people wouldn't want to belong to it. I wonder if the future Catalan govern

There are also many many people and windows without flags ;) Once they become an independent country, it will be one where ~50% of the people doesn't want to belong to it. Let's see what kind of "democracia" will they ap

I want the data for the same reasons that any content producer in the Internet wants it. Bloggers, youtubers, any company...everyone. Despite the noise this data might contain, it seems it's useful for everyone except for scientists...

As a scientist, give me the data and I will know what to do with it. AFAIK in the http://biorxiv.org/ they provide some statistics and it does not represent a problem.

Nah, I mean that it is a pain to upload error-free files. Due to dependencies with libraries and other reasons, a file that compiles in your computer often fails to compile in the arxiv.

I hope it is replaced with something better soon. You cannot see access statistics concerning the papers you upload, and they provide this absurd reason for not doing it: https://arxiv.org/help/faq/statfaq (it see

Seriously, please someone explain this. I thought DNS info is propagated among DNS servers, and it is cached on all of them... How can an attack to a single DNS company cause this outage??

The problem is that every remote desktop solution I have tried works quite slow and laggy. It does not feel as if you are sitting in front of your computer at all. Has anybody experienced the opposite? (I haven't tried this iceberg.io,

And the law does not mean that "you made something wrong therefore we have the right to treat you as shit". And by the way, that is not what is discussed in this thread. These people made a mistake when getting the visa, and inste

It seems that your 60 second research missed the point that the ESTA is also valid for business purposes. https://esta.cbp.dhs.gov/esta/ And the fact that you cannot ask for ESTA if you already asked for a J1 is not ex

But changing perception is in our hands. If everybody starts not giving a F for the .com, then people will start not caring about that... If we keep fighting for the .com we are just supporting that ugly business of buying nice domain names

I guess we all have different definitions of "quality of life". IMHO, the salary may be very high in the nordic countries, but with the weather the have, I wouldn't consider that a high quality of life.

I don't now how secure this is, but the look&feel of the site is awesome. If you happen to fail in this project, I encourage you to try another one, since you clearly have talent to make really cool web apps.

I agree with you, but I am not sure about this: P(A) * P(Not A) * P(Not A) = P(Not A) * P(Not A) * P(A) P(A) > P(Not A) * P(Not A) * P(A) Also, of course these are not independent events: if a plane has an accident for some reason, all t
