Aliexpress listings can have multiple different items, and the price displayed in the search results will be that of the first of those (in your case, probably just an antenna) rather than the actual item you searched for or even the item image shown on the results page.

There is also the foreign policy based on threats and insults, increasing reports of hostile border experiences, reductions in non-tourist visas, US economic policy reducing consumer confidence globally leading to fewer people committing to inter-continental travel, and the fact that some people simply prefer not to visit countries whose domestic policies they disagree with.

If you capitalise the first word (a signal to the algorithm to be more sentence-based than word-based, perhaps?)

- Krya på dig Björn - Get over it Björn

- Krya på dig Helga - Get over it Helga

- Krya på dig Dave - Get over it Dave

- Krya på dig Mary - Get over it Mary

- Krya på dig Linnéa - Come on Linnéa

- Krya på dig Mohammad - Get over it Mohammad

maybe the use of "sign"?

The "bunch of assets" that the crown effectively surrendered in return for financial dependence on parliament is the Crown Estate, currently worth GBP 8.1 billion (USD 13.6 billion).

They also pay tax: "In 1992, The Queen volunteered to pay income tax and capital gains tax, and since 1993 her personal income has been taxable as for any other taxpayer. The Queen has always been subject to Value Added Tax and pays local rates on a voluntary basis." I also assume that she does minimal tax avoidance.

One thing... Mobile Safari didn't use to cache anything over 15KB uncompressed. http://www.phpied.com/iphone-caching/

(No idea about more current versions of iOS or browser-caching on other mobiles OSs.)

The "Reader" button in the address bar fixes it.

I'm sorry, but describing homelessness as "a cool hack" is pretty twisted.

I did my own undergrad project on JPEG steganography, and I was surprised that section 2.6 accurately represents popular algorithms being implemented today. At the time it seemed to me that you got significantly better results than the naive algorithm when measuring visible differences and statistical anomalies in two ways...

1) Consider the unquantised DCT coefficients. If the unquantised coefficient is 12, and the quantisation factor is 5, then the quantised value is round(12/5) = round(2.4) = 2. If you need to flip the LSB, then the F5 algorithm would change this to 1. My algorithm would have changed this to 3 instead as this was much closer to the unrounded 2.4.

2) Encode one bit into multiple quantised co-efficients. For example: If you only need to hide one bit in a block, xor together the LSB of all 64 quantised co-efficients and use that; if you need to flip it, then carefully choose the single co-efficient which produces the best result for your visual/statistical models. (I might have excluded the DC co-efficient, don't remember.) If you need to hide two bits, use half of the co-efficients for one bit, and half for the other, and so on. Conversely, this method could also be extended to so that one bit is encoded into multiple blocks.

Rather than a keyed shuffle, I simply required the secret message to be strongly encrypted. This appears to have the added advantage of a message with predictable statistical properties.

Note also that robustness was not one of my criteria at the time.

Hope this is of some value (or at least interest). And my apologies if I have some of the terminology wrong - this was nearly twenty years ago and I don't have the work in front of me right now!

Maybe it was just quicker/cheaper for Yahoo! to buy Summly and their license than to negotiate their own license off SRI?

This tax works because it was a surprise. What do you think would have happened if, say, they gave 48 hours notice?

Unfortunately you just dumped $400k of some bad guy's product, and he knows where you live...

For the cheapo European carriers, you are generally billed for each leg seperately, and there is no discount for buying a return ticket.

But the real reason for looking for a one-way ticket was simply an attempt to speed up the awful search times.

Odd, it works fine for me (and this exact feature was skyscanner's original USP.) e.g. http://www.skyscanner.net/flights/tll/lond/130215/airfares-f...

Note that sometimes you have to click the "show all" link at the top of the search results to get low-cost airline results to appear. (This is possibly revenue-related.)

Some more feedback: If I do a search for direct, one-way flights from Tallinn to anywhere next month, the experience is awful.

"anywhere" appears to search a list of cities in sequence, not in parallel.

The top city on the list is Beijing (I doubt Tallinn-Beijing has ever existed or ever will); Dubai, Shanghai and Incheon are also in the first ten. Combine this with the server speed, and you have me staring at a throbber for far, far too long for searches that I know won't succeed and should have been trivially filtered out.

If I repeat the search, the same 48 cities are shown in the same order. Please stop trying to get me to go to Beijing. Consider a longer list, randomising the order and searching in parallel.

Your search results show no direct flights from Tallinn to London or Paris next month. This appears to miss results from RyanAir, EasyJet and Estonian Air. (Of these, your coverage page only claims to support EasyJet.)

No RyanAir is a bit of a problem, and I'm failing to get EasyJet results to show on some routes (e.g. LGW-TLL)

Matrix (and Adioso, which I guess uses the same backend) appears to be missing at least RyanAir and EasyJet, and presumably other low-cost carriers.

Honestly, if you don't include the 2nd and 4th largest European airlines[1], you might as well forget about the European market entirely.

Skyscanner and Kayak both include the low-cost carriers.

Assuming the vulnerability scanner tries some basic login attacks (for example, trying default username/passwords), then it would be analogous to a landlord finding one of their tenants trying to pick their neighbours' locks, and that of the building management office.

From the Guidelines link at the bottom of every page: "Otherwise please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait."

So now I need to seperately track which name I actually used for each website on password.ly ... This doesn't scale.

If I want to change a non-master password (some random forum I use gets hacked, for example, or an admin forces a password change), how would I do that?

I assume that isn't allowed by Apple. EDIT: It appears that it might be (or something functionally equivalent) -- see the post by bhaak.

"Pledge $1 or more (7525 backers) For just $1 the iOS App is yours!"

The iTunes store doesn't actually have a mechanism to achieve this, does it? Other than making it free for everyone for quite a while (months?) and using promo codes to fix up any backers who didn't download it in time. Promo codes are limited to 50 per release, I believe.

According to the project homepage[1], the Android and iOS apps are "coming soon", and his twitter says he submitted them on 2nd Jan[2].

There is also "Life In Seconds"[3] which has a few good reviews, and a "1 Second Daily Cam" app by Simon Meyborg but that has five one-star reviews on the iPhone UK app store.

A similar idea is One Second Epic[4], which also looks promising.

A "hands on preview" of a games console where "I didn't get a chance to personally try out gaming with the console"?

1KB of GET data is ~25 UUIDs. That doesn't seem excessive.

Of course taligent can speak for himself, but I think the argument is not that this is a bad game plan, but that it is not a "brilliant" one (but merely obvious.)
