English not being my primary language I often have problems naming things when coding. I read books and use the dictionary, but are there any other ways to expand my English vocabulary?I would love to be able to do a "reverse dictionary search", something like asking a friend "what's the word for ...".

By ads free I meant their core business would be about not tracking you and only providing services of showing you content your friends publish.

Like you said it depends on what kinds of guarantees they'd give around use of data. How guarantees can you give?

Re:Facebook recommended that a psychiatrist’s patients friend each other on Tuesday August 30, 2016 @03:49PM (#12393283)

Or 10 people checked psychiatrist’s facebook profile, facebook found common interest, saw that none of these people are fb friends and suggested to become friends, because hey, you all have something in common, you are all interested in this person.
