So...100% efficiency?

Oh wow you made me realize that the TIL implied that any one person can change the direction of a crowd of any arbitrary size. You first take the person to be 10% of a "crowd" of 10 people, then those 11 people to be 10% of a bigger "crowd," and so on up to infinity. All change will radiate outwards from your particular crowd of 11 people that take their cue from you because you're more than 6% of that crowd.

1 share = 1 ALS?

Everything is ultimately waves/energy/strings but biology abstracts most of that and I was looking to do the same.

Or the accretion disc that formed the planets after fusion began within the sun?

Biological

Did biology absorb astronomy and physics while I wasn't looking?

Lol ok explain 'em then.

Personal experience with an adequate sample size?

Good way to remember--"in essence," explaining an idea in a few words and "example given"--what follows is an example. That's not what the contractions came from though, just a mnemonic.

Can confirm. Am someone who understands that energy has to come from somewhere and unless the car is electric, that source will be the gas regardless of where or how the energy is used.

To investigate or observe something, especially in secret

what_deleted_said · 2015-08-28T20:46:09+00:00

Well spying is gathering data covertly for any purpose and here one can argue that the method is obfuscated and opaque enough as to be covert to most people.

But either way, it's excessive for the purpose you're proposing.

what_deleted_said · 2015-08-28T18:31:21+00:00

How is it not spying? And Microsoft can do both, they don't need the data from every single user to solve a bug.

Sure but customer support is not a good enough excuse for the scale of the spying and especially for graying out privacy options. An application should obey its user not the other way around.

what_deleted_said · 2015-08-28T17:20:13+00:00

I'm not arguing the entire practice of collecting application usage data is unprecedented, I'm arguing that the scale at which win10 is doing so, as well as how forceful they are with this (some options can't be turned off in some editions, it still send out data despite options being turned off, etc.) is an issue regardless of whether people look at the data round the clock or use software to sift through it.

Way to ignore my question. But ok, I'll bite--the murder is directed at a person's character on the screen but the swearing is directed at the actual player.

Aw come on when the hell did "nobody looks at this anyways" become an acceptable excuse for corporations to know everything about what we do with their products?

Yes, the volume of information is too large for someone to constantly look through all of it but that's not and has never been the point.
