I have a dell 9700 and I had this happen just yesterday on a god damn flight. I am still pissed. I never put my laptop to sleep/hibernate. I always shutdown. I have no idea but it somehow turned on in my bag, I felt it on my leg on the flight. I opened the bag and it was freaking hot. I have no idea how this happened. I noticed sometimes when I docked I click shutdown, it doesn't shutdown.
The other thing is there is no freaking light on the laptop other than the keyboard lighting to indicate it's off. I have to flip the laptop and listen to see if it's on, I look like a crazy person in public. I love the laptop but this is downright ridiculous. As I am typing on it, I smell an electronic burn but the laptop seems fine.
I suspect goo.gl sounds too much as a 'validated' Google link. Like the Amazon examples elsewhere in this thread. So users think falsely they can trust these links.
If true its actually surprising they kept the service going this long.
I know nothing about game development or the likes. But I just browsed the site. Wouldn't it make sense to maybe create a torrent or huge iso file of this info instead of downloading each asset manually?
Note that this doesn't actually provide any useful anonymization. That feature is a placebo designed to give minimal compliance with privacy policies and pre-GDPR data protection requirements.
They're anonymized for things like logs. When the computers aren't talking to each other, the reasons to know the exact IP address are rather minimized. If you feel you have a real need to do so, then you just need to inform your users what you're doing.
This was a homegrown solution by a student that worked for us. It's not auto generated and quite frankly painful to maintain as it just generates this html in php via parsing xml files. We're looking for alternatives at the moment too.
Old news. GE has been in free fall for a year now (down almost 50% over the last year and worst djia performer).
Last week a warning came out and it fell then. It was pretty well anticipated that news relating to the insurance business was coming out this week. I guess the news is about inline with what was expected.
Generally, by the time news like this hits the papers, everybody already knows about it, unless it is some secretive expose. This wasnt a secret.
Confounding news. Earnings were good; this news is negative.
> The shares rose less than 1 percent to $16.97 ahead of regular trading in New York, erasing a gain of as much as 5.8 percent that followed the announcement of the company’s fourth-quarter earnings.
The company's estimates and outside analyst's estimates are two different things. When they agree then I think the price gets reflected quickly, when they disagree it opens it up for more volatility.
Maybe the news was already baked in? Seems like a common underfunded long term liability issue that could be forseen in their financial statements. (Any company with long dated fixed liabilities and unrealistic investment return assumptions can fall into this)
40% of the time, options prices move in the opposite direction of the earnings surprise.
For those who are skeptical, this is not magic. The reasons for it are all the reasons you might expect: the biggest investors may not agree with the market consensus, the analyst consensus doesn't weight analysts by credibility so the "credible" analysts may not match consensus and so on.
Workday beated estimates by over 50%, yet shares fell.
I can give a lot more examples...
Lots of investors also sell when earnings beat estimates because they think they'll be selling high, etc. Point is there are tons of factors and it is way too simplistic to say beating earnings = price increase on that day.
There are two estimates you need to consider. The official estimate and the 'secret' estimate that investors really think you should beat. Although most people focus on the first one, it's only the second one that really counts.

This really depends on how accurate analyst estimates have been in the recent past. Consistently beating estimates will produce less gains over time. Similarly, consistently missing earnings will eventually cause less price damage over the mid run (of course it will probably produce bankruptcy in the long run). Confounding this picture in this case is that the market is trying to price a bunch of spinoffs which have been announced or rumored.
