Depends on if the study tried to control for this by also testing 2 more groups with single donation before/after the stressful task.
Can't access the original paper to confirm though.

Attunity leaks data via S3.

See https://blockstack.org/blog/blockstack-whitepaper-part-1:
"Blockstack binds (human-readable) domains to public keys to establish ownership of domains. These domains have associated data records as well. These small bindings are stored on the blockchain and are tamper resistant. The actual payload from the data records is stored outside of the blockchain because blockchains have limited storage space and are not meant to be used as general-purpose databases."

Re:Ask HN: Is RSS still worth the time?

Either RSS itself is fading or RSS might be called something else these days according to Google Trends https://www.google.ca/trends/explore#q=%2Fm%2F0n5tx.
I personally don't use RSS.
Re:No, Mark Cuban, this tech bubble is not worse than 2000
on Friday September 11, 2015 @01:36AM (#10202161)
The presentation from a16z comes to mind which had much more specific numbers comparing previous tech bubble to the current one. For example, the U.S. total funding in tech as % of GDP was 10.8% in 1999 vs. 2.6% in 2014 (slide 14).

I interned within AWS for a few month and never saw anyone carrying their laptops into bathrooms. Although I do remember regularly doing a linearly search of adjacent floor's bathrooms in order to find a seat.

"Levison turned over the keys as a nearly illegible computer printout in 4-point type. In early August, Hilton – who once served on the top-secret FISA court – ordered Levison again to provide them in the industry-standard electronic format, and began fining him $5,000 a day for noncompliance. After two days, Levison complied, but then immediately shuttered Lavabit altogether. Levison is appealing the contempt order."
Nice.

Maybe Google should do sentiment analysis on review text and compare with star rating then rank the review to be less visible if the two contradicts too much?
