We cannot stop collecting data about you because collecting the datum that you want to stop having your data collected failed.
I wonder if the situation in Europe is different, where such bullshit is illegal.
Well, I just typed “1 gallon in liters” into google and took the first number, because I couldn’t be bothered to deal with your system of measurement more than necessary. My point stands regardless of the exact volume of one gallon.
OF COURSE THERE IS MORE THAN ONE DEFINITION OF GALLON
Imagine getting Diesel in Germany. “Sorry, that was actually 15 liters of regular gas. ¯_(ツ)_/¯”
Edit: Ok, it’s not as bad as I imagined, since this picture seems to be about E15/E10, not diesel/regular.
How fucking big are American canisters? In Germany the regular size is 5l, [Edit: just shy of a bit more than] one gallon.
You vastly underestimate the tolerance of an average user who barely knows their way around a web browser and Word.
How would you decide what “1 unit of information” is?
I wouldn’t, because I have no knowledge in the field. But since the paper hinges upon that exact definition, and “They were vague about it”, this raises the biggest red flag I’ve seen in science yet.
If that’s really what they did, it’s stupid. First, you need to find a translation for every language to ASCII, which will wildly skew the results. Second, there are many ways to express the same concept, which all vary wildly in length. Take “Hi”, 2 letters, which means exactly the same as “How are you doing?”, 14 letters.
Yep, and align
isn’t a real property, either.
It’s a typo. The colon should be a semicolon. But since it’s the last declaration, it’s optional.
This isn’t replacing a euphemism with another one. Dumb has a completely different meaning that’s not even close to ‘cannot speak’, while ‘mute’ conveys exactly that.
I never understood this logic
You’re looking for logic in a joke.
Do you question why Donald Trump, the pope and a kid are the only passengers on a plane that’s about to crash?
More like
Problem → new ProblemSolverFactory().createProblemSolver().solveProblem();
maximising profit is not why we grant them copyright
That’s the only reason copyright exists. Because society decided that if you’re the one to put work into developing something, you should be the one reaping the profits, at least for some time.
It remembers the last input and defaults there.
It never occurred to me that TVs might not do that.
Third place gets a crown…?
This is actually funny. Imagine some automobile vendor misbehaving in some way and all other self-driving cars make a beeline for them just to ruin their crash statistics.
I’m more offended to be in Heaven in the first place. I mean, all the nutjobs were right after all? And only those nutjobs in my particular area of the world?
Why the fuck would they name it PRISM?
