Und das ist erst Tag 1 von 1461. Gewöhnen wir uns wieder dran, jeden Morgen zu sehen, was die in den USA wieder tolles gemacht/gesagt haben. Schön...

Gabe Newell says no-one in the industry thought Steam would work as a distribution platform—'I'm not talking about 1 or 2 people, I mean like 99%'
I remember the uproar when CS 1.6 required steam. It was huge and everyone was angry. It took a lot of pull that CS didn't die because of steam, a lot of players stayed on 1.5 for a long time. But HL2 was too big of an argument to stay off steam.

How does Shazam identify so many songs, what sorcery is this?
Some Google folks wrote how they do the Now Playing feature offline with very little resource impact. It's a great paper to read and quite easy to understand https://arxiv.org/abs/1711.10958

Die Petition „Stop Killing Games“ hat eine Million Unterschriften erreicht
Gute Nachrichten, gleichzeitig nicht aufhören zu werben! Je nachdem wie viele Stimmen im Nachhinein ungültig sind, könnte die Petition wieder unter das Quorum rutschen. Also fleißig weiter teilen und unterschreiben.

From what I understand from the article is that the correlation is there, but no causality (yet). I find it extremely good how cautious the doctor is phrasing his analysis and the article is also not blowing up where nothing is proven.

selfh.st: improper etiquette by 2010 standards? (trackers, no RSS) Thoughts?
I find general source tracking perfectly acceptable. It does not identify me as a user to any of both parties only tells the target site that users originate from another site.
I find personalized urls or tracking parameters bad. General source channel tracking is harmless for me.

Ich fürchte, das wird wieder ein Fall von "arm sein ist teuer". Wer kann relativ zügig mehrere tausend bis zehntausende Euro investieren, um mittelfristig Geld zu sparen? Und wer muss das lange zusammenkratzen, bzw warten bis eine Vermieterin das Geld investiert und sich über Miete und Co. wieder reinholt? Auch wenn ich es richtig finde, das sind Punkte, wo ein Sozialausgleich passieren muss.

It is definitely a "1933-1945 Germany against Soviet Union" reference. There's also a German version: lieber tot als rot. The US/NATO version during the Cold war came later

Simon is a communicator/influencer/pr guy from Bayer advising for science. He's doing a lot of meme stuff on LinkedIn. He has a science background so I think the shortening is just for effect
