I think this may be misleading, because if there are clear rules, and all words follow them, then a lot of things become easier. English has of/for/with etc in the place of these.

Here's Armenian (western).

Singular: (շուն: shoun)

շուն շունս շունդ շունը շունի շունիս շունիդ շունին շունԷ շունԷս շունԷդ շունԷն շունով շունովս շունովդ շունովը

Plural: (շուներ: shouner)

շուներ շուներս շուներդ շուները շուներու շուներուս շուներուդ շուներուն շուներԷ շուներԷս շուներԷդ շուներԷն շուներով շուներովս շուներովդ շուներովը

Technically, there are 16 more, but they have the same form as the first eight of each.



Ah, maybe I'm out of date then.


It's not just spying. It's also unilateral actions like the recent 'trivial subdomains' example:

iftop - top for network interfaces.

vnstat - the simplest traffic stat collector I could find.


If you use pass as a password manager, you can use pass-otp to keep the 2fa keys.


I've always wondered, why isn't Microsoft included in this? FAMANG maybe?


Because the term has been coined by Jim Cramer to denote the best performing tech stocks at that point in time. It does not take into account anything other than stock growth.


French uses GAFAM: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/GAFAM (and leaves out Netflix). Funnily enough it used to be GAFA, but people eventually added Microsoft.


> Turks brutally were murdered almost 70-80 years to turned to be a muslim and start believing arab god to survive.

When did this happen? What year/century are you talking about?


early islamic period around 7th centuries; you can find more information here; https://www.quora.com/Is-it-true-that-Arabs-forced-Turks-to-...


Is this the search history that appears in the activity tab? So, if you keep that clear, nothing could have leaked, right?


The worst part of WhatsApp is that it seems to be designed to maximize contact. People will add you to groups, and you can't do anything about it. Suddenly your number is distributed with many others, who may have who knows what data collection apps on their phones...

And once in, you will be forced to either leave and offend people, or stay and bear the consequences.

I wish I could remove it, but as you say, everyone depends on it.


This would be nice actually. Did Google Plus have this?


No, but I agree that it would be a nice feature. Not so much as a tagging system, but this strikes me as something good they could finally do with all their ML/AI stuff.

I have friends who will post photos, and I'll love for FB to detect that they often post single photos, and allow me to subscribe to just those. Even if it means relying on FB's algorithms deciding what posts make the cut.

The same goes for friends who will occasionally post blog-style stuff. While I'd prefer it if they actually blogged, being able to go to their profile and getting a FB-suggested 'type' of post to subscribe to would be peachy.

Other algorithmic suggestions I can imagine: - the friend who consistently posts great links to longer-form journalistic articles - the friend who posts mostly 'funny comics/pics', but actually funny ones - the friend who seems to know half the town and diligently clicks 'interested/going' for events that I am also interested in. - and the above possibly with an option to drill down and get more specific suggestions (I'm sure FB could segment the events at least by a crude party/political dimension. - the family member who posts all sorts of weird crap, but also the interesting family-related updates. It can't be that difficult to detect which of their posts are the family updates (and perhaps there could be a 'suggest category/tag/whatever' feature so that my dad can diligently mark these updates (which I know he would!).

With the above, or even a crude version of it, I could see myself browsing FB quite a bit, and I wouldn't mind the occasional sponsored post (which could be targeted specifically to the feed/mood I'm in).

I'm sure there's a lot I'm missing about all this, but I feel moderately confident that FB is not doing this, not because of particularly good reasons, but because they're stuck in a particular 'mode' and a bit too conservative about it (shortsighted advertising). I can't tell if this is just because they're a big corporation at this point, or because of 'SV incentives', or going public, or whatever else.


Yep, the privacy and sending specific things to specific circles and all was spot-on in G+. Or even specific people, groups, even non-G+ emails.
