> What I do, though, is measure the actual positive impact this tech has now.

I don't think just measuring the carbon footprint is giving you an accurate measurement.

You say this could not have been pulled off by a private entity, but I would argue the Japanese train system is equal, if not better and to my knowledge is privately ran.

> If the markets are like this when there are a few hundred cases in the UK and US, what will they be like when there are tens, or hundreds of thousands of cases and major cities are in lockdown?

Investors are trying to judge the likelihood of these very events and selling / buying accordingly. Markets are based on predictions.

A nice application, but I think a screenshot from the game next to the ASCII layout would improve this article.

What is your suggestion? It is far better than Chrome from a privacy point of view, while still being useable.

IC = ?

You now flagged comment was explaining ways one could check. I was showing this explanation was redundant.

I was stating my initial interpretation from the title alone.

It should be a given that responding in a chain with the OP stating 'By crypto they mean cryptography here.' I have ascertained the 'crypto' in the title now refers to cryptography.

I did interpret this as being related to cryptocurrency, so quite possibly.

> this starts with the assumption that what people like me went through is trivial.

I did not read it as that, and don't believe that is what his statement conveys.

Shambles. It sounds like there was no load-testing.

I'm sure it is related to the fact they can report N new users to shareholders. I can't see what else explains their complete lack of dealing with obvious fake/spam accounts.

Where's the evidence?

Ideally, yes.. but it shouldn't be a condition for it.

>>In addition to that, America is a country that works forwards from principles much more often than European nations, which very often work backwards from objectives.

>Have any examples to back this up?

This is an example to backup the statement. The US starts from a strong principle of free speech. European countries generally don't value this as highly, and will censor speech if they feel it is necessary.

Free speech.

Dyson moved it's HQ to Singapore with the CEO stating: “We have seen an acceleration of opportunities to grow the company from a revenue perspective in Asia"

I don't see why this makes Dyson a terrible person.

No, not everyone is in their own bubble. Some are able to be objective, and profit from being so.

There is room for reasoned debate but many are incapable of it, especially on an internet forum.

I'm not sure how you have interpreted my statement to mean the above. Please re-read without the assumptions.

More importantly his comment was a Straw man.

A delightfully condescending reply.

> Complaining that you can't have the political discussion that you want on a forum where politics is officially off-topic, is like complaining that you can't have the bacon cheese burger (with real pig and cow involved) that you want in the vegan restaurant you've decided to take lunch in.

Except this is disingenuous. There are political discussions found here, but one side is generally downvoted.

You realise this is just one publicly listed company (not a territory of China) bidding for another publicly listed company?

Maybe they don't know about them. It was an astonishing achievement - skepticism has its place.

I completely agree, but this looks like all we have to go on.

As much as this article suggests?

> Either way, the implication is that DeepMind pays an average of at least £478,— (U.S. $581,000) per head.

How would you describe autophagy in layman's terms?

Yes, but American's produce more than the average person on the planet.

Your links are months old. The Hong Kong protests have much great coverage on the front page than the protests in France currently.
