Why is the part about Sinclair news reporting on "Islamic terror" and "Trump support" singled out. Do they not report on anything else at all? Or is reporting on both this stuff by default a wrong thing to do?

Isn't that the entire model since long of the owners of multiple local news channels? It's a running joke on reddit since so many years.

You're living in a bubble. Lots of companies have better engineers on an average.

AFAIK the only data is domain name, record and the incoming ip. I don't care if they store the first two.

Do you have any actual points against or are you just trying to nitpick? And do you have anything better?

I was referring to this :

> researcher (well supervision of people actually doing the research

You explicitly distinguished the two.

And thank you for your answers.

Can you explain why you made a point to say "supervise students"? From your statement it looks like there is no expectation to do original/independent research. Is that the standard practise too?

Interesting do tell more please.

How much of a professors life is showing that they are doing vs actually doing.

What aspects are better and what worse? And which are popularly misunderstood (like summer vacation) ?

I was planning to ditch my android for iPhone but reports like this make me worried.

Can we have a reasonable discussion without fanboy ism about what is the most secure phone right now?

(reply only if you have a security background)

Good investigative thread. If eu does decide to break Google up (and I hope they do), hopefully it will be the data collection and advertising in one completely separate firm. Preferably android in another and rest of Google another

He's former ceo. And what's wrong with splitting up amazon? Assuming the selling business remains a single entity?

I'm not in favor of splitting, I want them taxed fairly but that's it.

I have a question- why keep ap on at all? Are they beta testing it and using metrics? Because I don't think it's the difference between someone buying a car and not.
