Pretty much every statistic you can imagine gets tracked. The interesting thing is how they are used. Time on site is a negative signal for instance.

The profession's title literally means "to suckle at the breast." If it were commonly called something like "doctor's aid" I'd bet it wouldn't be as pronounced a problem.

My understanding was that apple could remove an app remotely at any time. Is this true?

how about reddit.com/r/education?

This post itself is spam. Check out his awesome anchortext for "mp3 and file search." :-|

That seems an awfully libelous thing to presume.

I read that complaint as being about cost-effectiveness rather than strictly possibility.

In addition, send a DMCA request to Google. They'll be removed from search results very quickly, and it doesn't matter where in the world they are hosted.

Unfortunately, capitalism ensures that "efficiently allocated" means "allocated in proportion to the combined wealth of the purchasers." It is, however, _very_ good at that. I really wish liberals had…

He's making shallow copies of all of his objects and many of them.

I can't imagine this would work out well if he had to do his own memory management.

The best reason to keep identity in your logs is spam prevention. It may not be a big deal now, but it will be if this works out.

Unfortunately, if your search engine becomes important enough to spam, you won't be able to use logs as a signal . . . Best of luck though. Seems like a good publicity strategy.

I work for Google, and while I don't know anything about this particular situation, one invariant that I've been consistently impressed with is that the ads side of the company doesn't influence the s…

Regardless, it still happens all the time.

E-mail is pretty sticky. That's probably the dominant case.

The purpose of the Wave invites is so that they can fix scaling issues as they arise. Wait until its out of its limited technology preview status before you pass judgement on how it was launched.

That was a mistaken understanding. Reader has always published to the world unless you specified otherwise.
