Big companies usually buy other small companies for their users, once the users move to their platform, things change.

Why so many authors?

Everyone in the collaboration is an author. This is typical for particle physics collaborations. Not everyone contributed directly to this analysis of course, though everyone's feedback was solicited. Some people contributed to construction, instrument design, deployment, calibration, operations, monitoring, maintenance, common data processing tools, etc. the acknowledgements list the people who did most of the work but even they were advised by a larger group of people (I was one of them :) ).

Note that the author order is alphabetical but one of the primary authors happens to be first alphabetically.


It's not even close to the speed AirDrop has. This is not an alternative to AirDrop. I tried it multiple times but it's slow every time. These alternatives don't use the same technology.

It is an alternative. It just doesn't fulfill all the needs Airdrop does. I've had situation where I want to share a photo or a text file and it'll work great in that scenario.

Probably the main "feature" AirDrop has is speed. Other alternatives should include that "feature".

No it isn't? The main feature is sending things peer to peer.

That's not a feature that's a purpose.

So what? Anyway the more important difference is it requires both computers to be on the same LAN. The main point of AirDrop is you can share between two devices with or without LAN, with or without internet.

It's faster than the standard wireless transfer speed between my iPhone and my Windows PC (0 KB/s)

They've really strict policy on LLMs. They pretty much don't allow using them, because the slop so much in this kind of region.

Familiar but isn't effective enough for surviving.

Use the API then.

RIP bank account!

NHL? What are we, Canadians?

How are the mainteners stay anonymous while buying many domains and servers?

Also curious about the payment methods. That's usually what is targeted when they want to shut someone down. Surprised to see so many different ones still supported.

It's not hard. You could just pay someone else to buy the domain for you.

You need many that are willing to risk themselves going to jail. I don't think that's their method.

If you had a way to pay them I'm sure some someone in a poor country would take the offer. Pretty sure that's how this goes down.

They don't really risk anything cause they can just leave the angry emails about piracy on read.


Ok so they trace the domain purchase to some drug addict in Russia who got offered $100 to buy it. Then what? Wait for them to leave the country then nab them? They will be waiting a long time.

You can buy domains anonymously, e.g. flokinet.is

Right now I see many bots on WhatsApp.


You can use the official API to create and run bots - though the API itself is pretty bad


They use a real browser

That's not true. The different outcomes don't have any relation to each other.


If you had only bothered to open the link and understand what it even being said.

If you don't think it's true, then go ahead and arb polymarket for all the incorrect pricing.


What you said and what the link said were interesecting but not equal.
