> His pathfinding is just not good.

He’s optimized for minimum anxiety, not time or distance. Your dog’s pathfinding is _excellent_.


Maybe minimum for him. I'm just waiting for him to try to stand up under a chair and send the whole thing flying.


Wait, I just realized that this means I'm not going to have to keep and securely store 7 years of signed CC receipts for my business! Can't happen fast enough.


On previous models, the headphone and microphone jacks were on a small daughterboard which can be replaced without soldering.


See the previous discussions, here's one: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6492127

It wasn't simply the website - it's the entire exchange including call centers, advertising, etc.


Ah, yeah. That makes sense. I can't imagine the call center for that program. Probably looks something like mission control or a war room. Then all the surrounding stuff. When you throw in facilities plus all that surrounds the program it makes sense.


That's why the AG created the fake yogurt shop. Zero difficultly in determining the fake reviews. I doubt they would take on the case of a single shop's problems.


> That's why the AG created the fake yogurt shop. Zero difficultly in determining the fake reviews.

Not exactly. It was zero difficulty in determining the SEO companies that were in the business of providing fake reviews. They didn't set up a fake yogurt shop and wait for people to post reviews and then pounce on the reviewers, they set up a fake yogurt shop, and then solicited help in dealing with "negative reviews" from SEO companies, and the help they were offered by some of these companies was in the form of creating fake positive reviews.

A number of the comments on the thread act is if the AG was targeting individual independent reviewers (whether the reviews were fake or otherwise), when in actual fact were targetting two groups of companies:

1. Businesses which were using fake reviews and/or non-disclosed compensated reviews (whether provided by compensated consumers, in-house employees, or outside companies), and

2. Businesses which were providing fake reviews for money.


Replacing the Arduino with a Digispark (http://digistump.com/products/1) would probably work well.


- Women who wear clothing designed to show cleavage

- Men who stare at cleavage

Discuss.

Wait, just to make it a little more useful:

- Men who giggle like children about their project aimed at the above two groups

I spent six weeks in London for a college exchange class the summer of 1990 and discovered Banks and the Culture; I believe it was Consider Phlebas. One of the best parts of that summer. I remember the delays in releases of books once back in the US was agonizing.

Fuck cancer.


I was with you right up to your last sentence. 'Our freedoms,' that's the number one cause of terrorism?


Yes: the freedom to say "I shall not comply with your exigencies just because you are powerful". This is what they hate. Because it prevents the fulfilment of their 'dreams'.

I live in Spain. I know something about terror, man. And what ETA despises is FREE people in the Basque Country, willing to say to them: get your shit out of my hands and my house.

Terrorist are cheap people, in that sense. B-series villains, really. They just hate people not complying with their wishes: i.e. 'free' people.

This is what each dictator hates most. And they are dictators: "I know what is right and shall put all means into play in order to obtain it".
