Your post implies that shenanigans should be illegal. Where do you think you going with this?
The whole idea of a business competition is to abuse/exploit/break/violate existing rules in a more industrious (and that's the etymology of the word "industry" for you right there in this adjective) way than your competitor.
Corporations may be became people now, but that does not mean that Supreme Court decree also enriched them with morals.
Not the streaming. (much lower resolution - which does not matter for people like me who do it on the background just enough to not to forget common English)

Forget about network neutrality, this has "Microsoft flashback" written all over it. And if you think that Microsoft sticking its IE as default into OS was outrageous, how outrageous is this?
I browsed through the PDF {blockquote} In Table S1, the predictions for the fraction left-handed were generated using an estimate of the ideal equilibrium l for each sport. The appropriate value for l depends primarily on the degree of cooperation c for the sport. This parameter is dicult to estimate in sports that possess clear cooperative and competitive elements. However, in order to observe xed points other than l = 1/2, c must exceed a threshold that appears to be relatively high for the types of transition rates considered in this paper (See gure 1). So, we assumed that l = 1/2 for sports primarily involving direct confrontations: baseball (batters vs. pitchers), boxing, fencing, table tennis, hockey (defensemen and forwards) {blockquote}
I was skeptical when I read "cooperation", then I saw that they used fairly approximate numbers, and the quality of results was not bad
And it wants to use travelers' online behavior to serve up better targeted ads and content across all of Google's sites and services
It can want whatever it wants, but I'll be leaving happily in oblivion not knowing how hard Google tries to target me with their ads. They might know where I am, what I am doing right now, even what I am thinking, but as long as a nice pair of superheroes: ADP and NS exist, their spam arrows won't reach me.
I keep saying this. At the time of Megaupload crackdown (streaming became significantly worse experience nowadays) they are letting ADP and NS guys scot-free? I am glad adhosting mafia is not as strong as MAFIAA. Otherwise they would outlawed ADP long time ago.
Whenever I have to switch to another browser (the one without those beautiful add-ons installed) because of necessity I feel like steak chewing Cipher brutally taken from his nice restaurant to find myself on the rigid metal mesh floor violently vomiting undigested mixture amino acids and vitamins.
Not plagued by youth stupidity and desire to hump everything, still able to hump everything with cold mind, rich, lot's of free time to explore world, give back to humanity, ability to support higher education for children.
You are right on the money. It's not the disbelief I can't stand in atheism, it's utter lack of proclaimed "reason" (like a rally in DC).
If you are an atheist, there is not much you can say about it without looking stupid. While belief in supernatural is structured in organized religion, how can you structure disbelief?
They replace it with emphasis on science and reason. As a practicing Muslim and Ph.D. in Physics, I am not against that at all. Just be honest in application of scientific method and do not claim things that cannot be proven or disproven. The latter makes you just another religious person.
The original poster mixed up two things. In case of Indian Mushrks, he discovered a fraud, in case of Kuweit, it's about a law.
Muslims do not have a history of arranged miracles, except may be very deviant sects, in the first place, because one of fundamental principles is belief in UNSEEN.
I find the original juxtaposition of those two events : law in Kuweit and fraud in India, aribrrary, absurd and ignorant.
"Many people like this content. Therefore, it's good and should not be censored!"
That's not what I was saying. It's not number of people who like the content. It's about humber of people who will do something about restricing content.

Thank you, Agent ADP and Agent NS!
"90% crap" is another way of saying "redundant".
It's not a problem of people underpaid, old people not learning stupid new languages, it's a problem of redundancy.
Steven Hawking is redundant, and you are worried about oldies like myself? (I am in mid 40s)
How are they going to verify it experimentally?
Turning building windows into pixels have been done before. Even the first time it was entertaining, but far from awesome.

"So about five years ago my graduate school advisor and I wrote what was my very first peer-reviewed paper"
Take a hike.
I just can repeat what our boss (who is quite high in the scientific establishment in States) said about this guy.
"He is an idiot".
I like this phrase. As long as people understand a difference between "explanation", "fact" and "possible explanation", the science is in a good shape

looks like plaintiff lawyers screwed up
The killer looks like a fat Spanish nerd, and the killed one looks like a Black nerd.
It's a slashdot tragedy, really.
The common sense here is ... nah, does not worth it.
I am tired of this standard banal instantly modded up response:
- Something is made easier
- Aha! Government all other evil guys will have easy access too!
Duh!
If anything should be converted or made in 3D is this kind of movie (relationships etc).
3D works only on close ups, internal shots. that's where our human stereo-base (distance between eyes comparable to the scene depth) works.
I read it as a long procedure name
"It's objectively wrong to censor X because a lot of people wouldn't like that."
-objectively wrong
+commonsensically wrong
My BASIC code parser threw at break, so the parsing never reached that place.
"not that it's a reason that it shouldn't be censored"
That's ideological.
I do not think you understand what is basic, what is human and what is instinct
"Many people like this content. Therefore, it's good and should not be censored!"
That's not what I was saying. It's not number of people who like the content. It's about humber of people who will do something about restricing content.
