Thanks. What were some examples of those APIs?

Can someone explain how they can detect if you are in incognito mode? I didn't understand the article's explanation. From what I understand, it checks if you can store cookies. But doesn't incognito store cookies until you close the window? When I just opened YouTube in incognito, I get generic recommendations. But after watching several videos, I get recommendations based on what I watched, which I presume, are stored as cookies.

It's a shame that thinkpads are becoming less and less modular and functional. Some of my favorite functionalities are:

* Red nub. I use it exclusively, the track pad is disabled and serves me no purpose

* Hot swappable battery. I have a spare battery and it effectively doubles how long I can use my laptop without without charging.

* 7 layered keyboard. It's great to not have to use so many keyboard shortcuts, but rather have a dedicated button.

* Hardware switch for WiFi. If only it had one for the camera, microphone and sound.

* Durable and modular. I installed a hard drive using nothing more than a screwdriver and a 5 minute YouTube tutorial.

* Linux support (or at least not hindrance)

Some things that I do not like about the leaked Thinkpads.

* Envelope widthed laptops. I'm planning on using the Ethernet port before I plan on mailing my laptop in an envelope.

* 1 gram lighter than earlier models. I'm not so strong, but I have no problem sticking my laptop in my backpack and walking around with it. If I really wanted to I could remove 1 gram from my backpack without having to make the compromises that Lenovo is.

* Soldered memory. WTF

Does anyone have a recommendation for a laptop that is still being built that have most of the features that I am looking for. Assuming that it is good quality, money is not so much of an issue.

So then what was the point of the heavily publicized hq2 search? If, in the end, Amazon chose a deal that was available to everyone, then what did they negotiate?

Recently I'm hearing more about Matrix. Does anyone have any input as to the pros and cons of Matrix vs xmpp?

I guess you'll have to be in such a situation to find out. I have an ancestor who moved to America as an Orthodox Jew in the early 1900s. He would find work on Monday, and work until Friday. If the employer wouldn't let him take Saturday off, then he would quit and look for a new job. This cycle eventually stopped when he got hired by a seventh day Adventist.

Can you at least make it public for lurkers?

The problem is that the taxes are zero for specific businesses. If I want to open a business in New York, I'd get nowhere near as much of a tax break that Amazon got. I agree that business taxes should be low, but they should also be consistent.

> Is the information on the snopes page false or incorrect? No, it isn't.

It is both false and incorrect. Saying that "every one with an x has since been voted out of congress" When not every one with an x has since been voted out of congress is false. I mean even the article quotes a tweet listing 10 people who were incorrectly marked. You should see what Snopes does every time a right wing person says something not 100% correct.

> "snopes occasionally makes editorial decisions I disagree with" is not the same as "snopes is fake and unreliable".

Again, the Snopes article is blatantly false.

> Sorry, I must have missed it the first time, tell me again why you continue to rely on an overtly racist blog to be your arbiter of "ethics"?

Sorry, I missed why you think that I continue to rely on a racist blog to be my arbiter of ethics.

> Christy, who is a frequent critic of EPA regulations, said he will use his position on the 45-member board to question the results of climate models.

So do what scientists do? Question models and improve them.

The more information they have the better it is for me. The reason that I use insurance is to lower the variance significantly while only slightly lowering the expected value. Now, if they had an oracle that could see the future, then there would be no point in using them. But that is not the case now, nor do I expect it to be the case any time soon.

Currently I want the insurance company to know what my expected value is properly so that I can get a rate that is appropriate for my needs. Of course I would prefer that they make a mistake and assume that my expected value is lower than reality, but if they make to many mistakes like that then either they will go out of business or raise their premiums.
