Misleading exactly in the way I said: the wording used is “help”, not defend, and nothing is formalised. Ukraine is getting “help” as well, but it is not exactly NATO article 5 protection.
Depends what you optimise for I guess, maybe fine if you are looking for novel problems or starting a startup, but in general with regards to your career, I believe Patio11’s point on this is more accurate: you want to be part of the profit center [https://www.kalzumeus.com/2011/10/28/dont-call-yourself-a-pr...]
Except their revenues are £163m, so it’s not exactly like they do not have a revenue source. I think you are too pessimistic. I don’t have a split but would imagine the largest revenue source is the interchange fee? I would also doubt very much that their cost base is very optimised at the moment, so I would think profit is very doable. In addition, having used their business offering, I think they have a huge opportunity there, their product is very good.
Maybe because he is relaying stats which are not (widely?) reported at least in UK media, and by being “famous” his account is validated and we trust him to at least accurately relay information from Italy? Does not seem so unreasonable to me.
It’s in the thread: “Yes, it was reported yesterday by the authorities in the Italian television, the director of one of the major hospitals also reported a few severe cases with people under 30 otherwise totally healthy.”
Thanks for a good article and actually very timely for me as I want to brush up on LA in 2019. From the above comment it sounds like you are the author? I’ve noted a few potential typos: 1) Length of v, should read length of a? 2) when discussing similarity between vectors you discuss the case of the dot product being 0 or 1, but the dot product could be >1, no?
I have submitted this because it is frequent to see on HN claims that IP addresses are personal data under GDPR. I’m yet to see a good source for this blanket statement, and this link contains a more nuanced analysis, essentially saying that IP addresses are only personal data in some cases, where they can be used to identify a person (without involvement of the ISP).
In Sweden a blood repository from babies has already been used by law enforcement for DNA matching purposes [1], even though that was not the intended purpose of the repository.
org-mode: once you learn the basics it’s quick to add new tasks, quick to change the timeline, and easy to add recurring tasks. You won’t outgrow it: there is a lot of flexibility for adopting to more complex workflows. The negative is that it has a bit of a learning curve.
Well actually this analysis by White & Case of the same case[1], seems to suggest that it may not be (paragraph “impact on businesses”) personal data if the business has no means of linking the addresses to users.
