Save a click: Google found to be a monopoly (obviously),. They will likely appeal the decision (obviously). No detail on whether a penalty that would actually penalize the behavior in any real manner is being considered/enacted, but I think we know.

He killed Emilio with some kind of gas, strangled Krazy-8 with a bike lock, ran over and shot the two drug dealers that killed Combo, arguably killed Hector and Gus, and poisoned Lydia.

So are you just one guy with a lot of time and accounts to use, or is this like, a group of people working to make these low effort bait posts? I realize that might come across as dismissive, but I'm genuinely interested. Let's chat!

Okay, so we punish the Democrats and the Republicans necessarily win as a result. Hopefully that's not a controversial assumption.

How many such intentional losses should be planned on so that we can get the Democrats try to move left to recapture support? How are we going to ensure they try to better court the left instead of moving to the right?

Last I read about this was years and years ago, and the claim at the time from the source I learned about it from was that the cause of this behavior is unknown. Is it known now?

What's that from? The Simpsons?

what choice do you have if all services are doing it?

I can think of a thing or two.

What could possibly go wrong with that. I heard the Russians have been very trustworthy in the recent past.

Oh yes it's all clear to me now.

The p value is effectively the % chance something happened by coincidence, and not because of a real effect. Like flipping a coin and getting the same side several times in a row. P value is an assessment of that likelihood. Less than .05 means a less than 5% chance of that. I don't know what the other bit is, except it was likely a method of statistical analysis.

It's a way of saying that the results they found were very unlikely to be due to chance.

This measure is so blatantly anti-democratic that I can barely understand how anyone could justify it.

This very thing inspired me, a person who currently works nights, to screw up my sleep schedule to vote against it.
