This appears to be a huge boon, due to the fact that developers can now send their external marketing directly to their own online landing/checkout pages. Apple appears to be only charging commission for traffic sent there and that checks out within 7 days of clicking the in app link.

In other words, a developer can have a Facebook ad or similar go directly to the checkout page and buy the app there, bypassing the app store commission for traffic the developer is bringing to the app store themselves. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong on this.

This being the case, any recommendations for carts / processing services / etc that would be ideally positioned for this kind of use are MASSIVELY welcome!!!

So there were long term human trials done like with actual vaccines?

The most effective marketing copy is often written at a 5th grade level. Some who have studied copywriting have found the reverse correlation between sales figures & grade level to be the highest of anything they could measure in terms of the copy itself.

Really? I’m still waiting on my taxpayer sponsored bill to come in from the “anti vaccine” manufacturer.

Actually, that’s great idea. Someone should make an antidote for the “vaccines”. It would sell like gangbusters.

Great job. I could scarcely describe the failures of multiculturalism better if I tried.

They used to call keeping your personal life separate from work "being professional". Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong here... don't most companies hire people to do a job, not to flaunt who they are in their private lives in a distracting manner?

It seems the lenses are sufficiently spaced that it’s not really an issue. Also the ridges themselves are quite slippery, and don’t tend to cling onto dust.

From the abstract:

we reveal a simple and robust scaling law that captures the temporal and spatial spectrum of population movement

They throw around the word "temporal", but it's not clear exactly how they incorporate the time element without taking the plunge on the full study.

What I heard from the mouth of the guy who interrogated and discovered it, who was persecuted by us law enforcement agencies and news rags, must have just been “US propaganda”.

Evidence like intelligence gathered from their interrogation being used to locate UBL?

Do you actually expect anyone to believe that the Jews and the Jihadis are on the same side?

Ya, if nothing else, the events of the last 2 years have assured me of the United States' "stability".

One in your shoes may ask oneself: "why would the US military invade a country whose government was actually a cooperative ally, rather than an enemy?"

We need to let all these guys out as soon as possible so they can take up the reigns in the fledgling new Afghan government.

I hope you had a reputable doctor interpret those studies for you in person. I read on CNN.com that it can be dangerous to do online research and think for yourself. I’m not sure if I should believe it though, since a reputable medical professional didn’t read it to me in person. In fact, even reading your comment, I’m not at liberty to reply, since a reputable medical professional didn’t read it to me, and I can’t be sure just what to think without a reputable medical professional telling me, in person, what I should think.

Is that statement provably true for the previously infected?

(Hint: it would be more dangerous to get a shot if you’ve already had it than to not, but it won’t make Fauxi & friends any money if you don’t. Gee, I wonder why they don’t advertise that.)

Guess I'll just get off of my high horse and make sure big Pharma gets paid by the taxpayer for something that not only do I not need, but would weaken the immunity that I have.

The state of the world is obvious from the activity on this forum. If these are supposed to be "intelligent hackers" here, god help the human race.

I've already done my part by contracting and beating the virus you're deathly afraid of. I have more powerful immunity than anyone who's taken any of those shots. I don't have to ponder about the numbers on that one.

Apparently writing one sentence is now "going on and on".

It's not mental gymnastics to point out the information overload on one side of this issue, which makes absolutely no medical or scientific sense, yet makes a ton of profit "cents".

It would be interesting to see the numbers on being overweight vs vaccinated, and seeing which is more correlated with covid severity.

Oh. I see. So when a computer system sends signals over a wire, if it represents "provably false statements", it's actually misinformation, and not information. All those 1s and 0s instantly switch from information to misinformation, the minute their final representative form embodies a "provably false statement".

Who decides what's provably false, by the way?

Are the novels of Tolkien "misinformation", since it could presumably be easily proved that the events described in them didn't actually happen?

And what is the burden of proof for "intent to deceive"? And in which court is this all decided?

Who decides? Just people in your group right? What ever your group happens to be. Sure hope we all worship your god then, because the other gods are all "Misinformation".

"Common sense" isn't that common. Do you also acknowledge the perverse incentives of government bureaucrats to promote their story?

Really cool resource. Small nit: the time in the upper right hand corner being off by an hour is killing me (not literally).

So the reports of "triage" problems and overwhelmed ICU units is a fabricated issue?

Even predicted the acquisition by apple!

#2 was also more prophetic than many here will want to admit.

#7 predicted facebook's "fact checking" operations.

pretty sure at least apple pay uses a dynamic security code, and not just a raw card number that can be saved?

what did you use to do the ASO?

seems like by using Apple Pay / google pay your fears would be assuaged?

you can't link directly from the app. however you can ask for email and send the link via email. the settlement hasn't been approved yet (filed yesterday) so the exact terms haven't been updated.

It seems to me that paragraph hasn't been updated to reflect the settlement terms yet, since the settlement was filed today?
