They must keep their mouths open more than normal frogs just so they can see. Poor creatures.

I'm curious what the dollar value of this data is per capita. Imagine if you could simply pay $1 for exclusive rights to data collected by GM. Back in reality, they'd go "oops, we sold your data again and hoped you wouldn't notice."

The C++ side gives you what you need to create your own seat belt: spools of razor wire and clippers to remove the sharp edges (but no gloves). If you cut yourself, it's your own damn fault. Real developers have discipline.

For those with aphantasia, simply open a terminal on your Linux machine and run xeyes while you read this comment thread.

You will find a cease and desist in your mailbox tomorrow morning.

Haha agreed, if we're talking about kilobytes of missing data brute forcing is intractable.

There may be structure to exploit in the data format. E.g. if you're recovering missing content from a book written in English, you can probably get away with enumerating only printable ASCII and 90% of the letters will be lowercase.

But practically, I am unconvinced because the information density is pretty high on the kinds of things people like to torrent.

Sonic looks pregnant in the first game. Oh, that must be the baby in the sequel.

Maybe 90k is all they can prove at the moment, but it's really a larger number.

How can you be sure I'm making it up when your judgment is so unreliable?
