Thank god for GDPR.

Ra1d3non SF hospital charged $15K ‘trauma response fee’ for baby that needed no treatment

One of the reasons I have basically given up my fantasy of moving to the USA is the russian roulette that you seem to have to play with your health and its insurance.

Ra1d3non Facebook’s tracking of non-users ruled illegal again in Europe

Its pretty easy: The law says, that you always have to set a willing action to opt in. There can be check-boxes, but they need to be unchecked by default ("privacy by default"). Simple. I have already received multiple communications from Banks and credit card companies, and they are all very explicit about it and it was very easy to see the choices and the effect of the law.

Ra1d3non Revitalise your CV – Simple resume-editing tool

Some things I found lacking:

1. Your background image previews on my "Hover Zoom" chrome extension (opens in overlay like a link to a image [1]).

2. Your star display breaks on my second monitor (19" 1280x1024) at 100% Zoom in Chrome and every setting above that[2] This is in my opinion not acceptable.

3. In "Preview Mode" you can not add anything, but you can still remove parts. Is this intended?

4. Speaking of preview mode... it is not obvious what it does. If you are looking at the button when you click it you don't automatically realize what it does.

That is all for now. Good luck.

Ra1d3non Multiplayer Genetic Cars

Im hitting performance problems after about 5 minutes. I get massive lags. Running on latest Chrome i5 3.4GHz x 4 and 8GB RAM.

Edit: Just press "New Population" a few times and watch your browser slow down. There is a memory leak somewhere.

Well maybe europeans make good midsize companies?

Ra1d3non This is not an image. It's an HTML table.

Ra1d3non Paid Vacation? That’s Not Cool. You Know What’s Cool? Paid, Paid Vacation.

Well in Austria (and Germany afaik) we get a vacation bonus pay ("to be able to afford vacation"). Its about one month of regular pay. Additionally, we get another month of pay for christmas ("to be able to afford gifts for the loved ones").

It's often called the "13th and 14th month of pay". Come work in Europe ;-)
