Getting married, particularly when you're the primary earner, does an awful lot for your perspective. You can't be so cavalier as the author when somebody depends on you to put food on the table, and that's usually a good thing (especially in terms of relating to the rest of the world that is wrapped up in family life).
Can't edit.
>>following a fad diet
Just sets you up for disappointment. It's better to research nutrition generally and experiment methodically, building up knowledge about how you personally react to foods, and planning with that knowledge.
Yep. That's what I'm doing. With the full support of my bank as well (they know I'm working on my start-up in my spare time, they've arranged to pay me in a fashion that's tax efficient allowing me to invest my money in my startup pre-tax, etc.).

There are plenty of people doing it, at any start-up event I go to (in London) I run into current and former banking peeps.
Early-career research positions for cleared PhDs at gov't labs pay much, much more than the equivalent positions at universities (post-doc, lecturer, etc.) and still allow you to publish.
True, but I think the sentiment isn't "make individual loans work like business investments" so much as it is "make business investments work like individual loans". In other words, if individuals are expected to pay taxes, businesses should be expected to pay taxes as well (rather than being allowed to minimize them due to earlier losses).

It's not black and white, of course, and I'm not an accountant, so my knowledge is limited and most likely filled with holes and misunderstandings. But I imagine there's also a matter of scale that's at play here, with tax laws meant to make things easier on small, privately owned businesses in their early years, having unintended consequences to the benefit of companies already behemoth in size investing in getting even bigger. Bigger in ways only made possible in the new digital, globalized world.
To be pedantic, this part of the case is about copyright law, not patent.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_LLC_v._Oracle_America,_....

The first phase of the case lasted from 2010 to 2015. Oracle successfully established that APIs are copyrightable, but their claims of patent infringement were rejected. Google petitioned the Supreme Court in October 2014 to review the case, but this was denied. A second petition by Google in January 2019 included the judgement that APIs are copyrightable. The Supreme Court agreed to review this part of the judgment in November 2019.

To the degree that SCOTUS has found that an API can be copyrighted, there is still room for copyright trolls to operate.
I think a deathly allergy would qualify as a 'legitimate safety requirement'. There are also situations in which the ADA considers an allergy itself to be a disability, though the given examples are usually around food allergies.
Many keyboard shortcuts I rely on in a shell is hijacked by browser. So sad
Yes, but awfully hard to prove.
Two distinctions come to mind: the encyclopedia text doesn't have a "functional purpose" in the same way as the implementation of an API does, and thus there isn't a market of users who have pre-existing skills with encyclopedia entries that they could put to use if the entries were copied to another platform. In my non-lawyerly reading of the first bit of the decision it seemed they leaned on those aspects quite a bit.

> The electric grid is going to be determined by what the power company provides. Industry has plenty of incentive to standardize that and they mostly do.

This has almost never happened without the threat (implicit or explicit) of regulation. The only time large corporations willingly standardize is when they have control over the entire market, and standards are a tool of cost cutting more than as a means of enabling cooperation with other companies.
It is accurate, based on both The Communist Manifesto (1848) and The Origin of the Family, Private Property and the State (1884).

This is the most galling account of COVID rule-flaunting that I've seen. The meeting they held was, as far as I know, illegal, and with good reason. They really wanted to hold it, and thought they would get away with it.

I’ve had regrets in my life. But never fucking regrets.
I don't think V has proven its robustness or completeness. One thing that could change my mind is if one of the applications got completed and was actually usable.

For example, I'm really interested in the Volt thingy - a lightweight, multiprotocol chat application:

https://volt-app.com/

But if you open the website, you can see that there is no Linux or Windows support, and most protocols are not yet implemented. I've searched for other projects written in V, and haven't found a single completed project.

In my university my student library account gave me access to journals so even though scihub didn't exist then I don't recall ever not being able to access a paper. I assumed all universities do this, is that not the case?
If they can't stop threatening people, yes.
To explain and completely misunderstand how it works, as well.
I agree with your position with one caveat. The people in the former category view democracy not merely as a set of values, but as a set of -their- values. If you do not share their values, then you are against democracy. Ironically this is diametrically opposed to the core concept of democracy - its much more like theology. Adopt their dogma, conform to their orthodoxy, or you are an infidel.
In those cases it's the business owner who decides. What happens when the decision comes after a mob puts pressure on the owner to drop that costumer or else?
If you ever wanted the spirit of the old internet to come back, then you can't get much closer than an a troll frantically using alt accounts to evade a ban.
My opinion is that right wing ideas are more extreme than left wing ones. Sure, both of them have good ideas and radical ones, but radical ones of left seem to move the society as a whole in a good direction while right wing ones seem to move them in a direction that threatens the existence of the society itself.
> or because the other side has been repeatedly discouraged from adding their two cents in those communities.

They have been discouraged from making threats, being racist, etc. If that is their two cents, it's not worth two cents. If they can't have a civil discussion without threats, racism, bigotry, etc, again, it's not worth two cents. This is they key, they KEEP coming back with vile speech. No one deplatforms them for simply having DIFFERENT opinions, they're deplatformed for having violent, racist, bigoted opinions. You can't equate silencing dissent from not tolerating hate speech.
Yep. And the one President in decades that hasn't started any is apparently the war monger.
One interesting thing to consider is the Paradox of Tolerance[1]. In the case of our society, allowing the norms to be consistently pushed can lead to the rise of intolerance.

Not to mention that the decisions to ban Trump certainly wasn’t taken overnight and he was given a very long leash.

Regardless I’m sure the motives here are not philosophical but mostly profit motivated.

Sure! SabreDAV 2.1 released in November 2014, IT Hit WebDAV Server 3.9.2098 released in December 2014.

adobe flash_player has just under three hundred CVE entries for software flaws. (note to pedants: the NVD search includes GNU bullshit clones if you run a simple search on 'flash player')

apple quicktime has over two hundred -- and that's ONLY counting from OS X days (i.e., not including Mac OS days).

Writing network-enabled rich-content delivery platforms is a hard task. flash player is installed on a tremendous number of devices across a staggeringly diverse operating system segment. Problems are sadly impossible to avoid.

Firefox has more than 1100 -- again, not counting Mozilla days. Chrome has more than a thousand. Safari, commendably, has little more than five hundred. The point is nobody gets it right. Not even Steve Jobs.
Not so much learn but to retain. Working in a web stack you end up having to juggle something like 5 languages at once (Your server language + SQL + HTML + CSS + JavaScript) not to mention these "micro-languages" like time formatting, imgsrc strings, etc. This is why ORMs and things like node.js are popular - to reduce the burden of dealing with a bunch of different languages.
Then don't consider it a donation, but as a separate pricing tier. Currently, you are charging $5000 to those who don't want AGPL, and $0 to those who are fine with AGPL. You can charge, say, $100 to those who are fine with AGPL but want to pay.

If you want to increase sale, you could include donors' names in the documentation in return to $100, for example.
A better question is, who doesn't make at least 10K per year? Are there many?

If not, then the billion figure represents a reasonable lower bound estimate on the savings.

It also gives them creative control.

It's no fun if you have to go through a multi step technical, managerial, docs team and legal review process where PM makes you include/exclude what they want to turn it into a marketing doc, your manager shuffles your priorities, the docs team makes you dumb it down, blow up the word count and remove external links and convert to .docx that will only be available to registered enterprise customers, and then finally legal tells you you can't write any of this anyway.

Or generally, only add meaningful words. A "to be honest" or "in fact" can be removed without changing the sentence. Brevity is nice.
tl;dr: I version control mine so I have backups, can share them with my mother, and here are some scripts that will help you do part of that.

I wrote a script to extract the dates and rename each photo to the date:

http://www.mcvoy.com/lm/jpg2date

and you use it like

jpg2date *.jpg | sh -x

Then, like other people, I organize them by YYYY/MM/photos.

I also version control them in BitKeeper which has a binary asset mode (BAM) that works really well for this sort of thing. It wraps the photos in a pretty decent CRC, can use hardlinks for checkout (I can checkout 60GB of photos in a second), and because it is a distributed SCM I can push them to my mom's place in Florida where I have her mac's screensaver pointed at them.

So California has to fall into the ocean and Florida needs to blow up before I lose my photos. And I take that part pretty seriously, losing the photos would suck. Not because they are great, just because they are the record of my family.

I also put the entire lot up on the web (well, less anything that would make our nazi police think it's kiddy porn, no shots of the kids playing in the bath, don't get me started on how retarded our society has become). That script is written in our little programming language, L, but you could translate it to perl easily:

and it generates the layout here:

This reads like it could be a good ad for Dropbox. That version would've been in the file's history. A 5 second repair-job.
Maybe a better idea would be to help profile individuals interested in start-ups and connect them with users who will compliment there idea. I think there are many people out there with great ideas and non-technical skills that need to connect with people that have excellent technical skills in coding for instance. I'm sure there are users in the opposite situation, great technical skills, but lacks the ideas and business skills to truly build a company. If you had some sort of hub or central place for people to offer there ideas and contribution safely, and the hub would then help connect them with their compliment(s) co-founder. Like a co-founder dating site, but with actual people in center helping making connections with one another, not a computer.
What I always wondered was, if they have full cooperation, why do they even need hardware? Can't they just get access to tap the communications centrally? Would be far easier.
He's not trying to resurrect the game though, he just wrote a character controller so you can implement mario-like control in your game and showcased it with assets from the mario games. Still, I expect Nintendo to come calling any day now and demand that he remove all assets he ripped out.

When that happens, I suggest he call it Dangerous Dave Controller.
Exactly. Especially since it's apples and oranges.

Water is not optional. Without it you die. Roundup is optional. Without it the world can still grow crops (we SOMEHOW have for thousands of generations). Dumping many many tons off chemicals designed to kill (however small the organism) all over our food and planet, let alone planting homogeneous, patented, and GM'd "basic" plants, is a recipe that likely isn't good for the planet over time.
It's pretty straightfoward I think.

You have a complex product/service, with very diverse application scenarios.
=> Customer adoption is hindered by this complexity.
=> Customer is not getting value
=> Customer is angry and stops paying

You hire a person who is familiar with the applications of your technology. He talks to customers to figure out what they want to do, how they plan to achieve it, what the hurdles. He helps them. Writes best practices, implementation plans, helps marketing to position and sales to close.

It turns out so good that you hire many such people, who specialize in particular customer segments. Those people need management.

You need Director of customer success.

It's something between account manager/service/marketing.

You should verify you're dealing with the rightsholder or their representative, then take their offer, IMO. Paying a reasonable fee to license the cartoon, which is what they've offered you, is both legally and ethically the right thing to do.

You can't copy and distribute someone else's work without their permission. There is no requirement of malice, financial gain, or anything else to be in violation of their rights under copyright law. It's just not allowed, and that's the case in probably 100+ countries around the world, since 90-something were signatories to the WIPO treaties. Your use of the image doesn't fall under any of the fair use exemptions, and neither is ignorance of the law a defense. If they wanted to take you to court, you'd lose, and you'd almost definitely owe more than $168.
>Without arrangement and bias, journalism would have no value.

I don't know about that. Truth is stranger than fiction and there's plenty of interesting information to be had. Editorializing and slant can be juicy, but good writing/presentation is timeless. Likewise, curating and clearly presenting information of interest has tremendous value to many; potentially even more so when it's clear that there is no bias.

>"dodgy company gets its comeuppance", "my favourite party does something good" or "person dies in an accident".

Those could just as easily be fact-based reporting on topics of broad interest. No bias is needed in delivering such factual content to make it more compelling. For instance, replace those "headlines" with:

"Facebook loses court challenge over privacy violations"

"Republican party donates clothes to shelter"

"Princess Diana dies in car accident"
Sort of, `(B) a technological measure `effectively controls access to a work' if the measure, in the ordinary course of its operation, requires the application of information, or a process or a treatment, with the authority of the copyright owner, to gain access to the work.

However, as ROT13 is not limited to just protecting copy-write works and is reversible you could have an effective tool with other works. (A) is primarily designed or produced for the purpose of circumventing protection afforded by a technological measure that effectively protects a right of a copyright owner under this title in a work or a portion thereof;
http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/F?c105:1:./temp/~c105eDJ...:

On the other hand, if you only apply ROT13 to part of a file then it probably does qualify for protection.

I find myself a little irritated by the terminology "of color". My ancestors also came from Africa. My skin also has color. Does "of color" mean anything other than "considered to be in some arbitrary vaguely defined region(s) of the DNA hyperspace"?

> And the mere fact that Mickens still has to identify himself as a "black computer scientist"

Does anyone necessarily own life's complicated problems? And are we sure there actually is a problem?

> As a member of an underrepresented group

If I chose to think about my situation in certain ways, I could also define myself to be a member of various underrepresented groups. Would it mean anything?

I'm afraid it's probably true that some employers discriminate against people based on their names, and that really sucks. I hope that will decrease over time. But I have a hard time imagining that a company that would discriminate against you based on your name would be a good place to work.

You're insinuating there are groups inside major companies setup with the express purpose of discovering and releasing exploits against competitive products?

Since plenty of companies do this, I'm sure it would be easy for you to show evidence of a few examples.
This works especially well when you are doing creative work. Come in and do at least some work every single day you possibly can. You don't have to do a lot of work every day, but try to stop at a natural stopping point.

My theory is that by working every day you keep the work current and churning in the back of your mind; while by working to a natural stopping point, you avoid feeling frustrated by loose ends.
It is a rather crowded space, but there's room for improvement. The biggest 'pain' point in this space is how many times the same core piece of news gets posted. After something like original iPad announcement, every social media site had 30 blog posts about the thing. Lump it all under a single heading showing the primary source - Apple, and relegate blog-posts as related-discussions.

Slightly less fanciful - use tags instead of sub-reddits and 'other discussions', use RSS feeds as auto-submission source.

This is incorrect. Stock represents actual ownership of a scarce resource (a company). That company would have value whether or not it was explicitly sold as a stock. The value doesn’t come from the stock.

Cryptocurrency removes the underlying asset and simply sells shares of artificial scarcity. It’s only as valuable as what people decide to trade it at, because it doesn’t represent ownership of anything other than itself.

This doesn't invalidate the point, it reinforces it. It's a system that continues, rooted in the structural foundations of the governments of historically colonial/slave-trading powers.

It's not exactly surprising to see an exemption carved out for it in European documents.
