So if I lease commercial land it's my responsibility to make sure my renter isn't laundering money?

Whatever argument you make should also explain why the web hosting provider isn't also responsible for hosting and distributing pirated content. Certainly they should also look like they're trying to prevent copyright infringement on their network.

> but you should at least look like you're TRYING.

This kind of logic is how an automatic 'review' process gets implemented which just spins for a few minutes and then then accepts the video. The problem of detecting copyrighted content is so complex that without source level access you would never be able to prove definitively that their review process is just theater.

>> CrossFit works for me.

>> The trainer is very good and there is a big focus on safety and avoiding injury.

>> I did get a shoulder injury (currently recovering from it) but it's because of my years of sedentary living my muscles are weak and things like shoulder muscles aren't held together well by atrophied muscle. That's not the fault of CrossFit.

My mother used to be in a cult and I spent a good part of my childhood living on one of the compounds. Still, I am always surprised to find how easy it is for people to believe and say things that make no logical sense.

Quite obviously, if your trainer really was very good with a big focus on safety and avoiding injury, he would've known that you had weak shoulder muscles. I would bet good money that you suffered this injury during an exercise suggested and supervised by a 'safety conscious' CrossFit instructor.
This is no one's fault _except_ CrossFit and your trainer. You paid them a ton of money to help you train safely and they failed.
My point was not that there have been individual failures, but that the 'justice system' is plagued by a lack of accountability, misaligned incentives, and entire organizations who do not feel any obligation to the citizenry.

Is udemy just a scam site that trades ofd consumer confusion in with Udacity?
Oh, it's even worse than that. Lots of unhappy males leads to fear among the ruling class of where the discontent might lead, which encourages them to pick a fight to start a shooting war, which has the dual benefits of keeping the now-patriotic males busy on the front, and also directly serving to decrease their numbers to fix the original problem. Kind of a big problem if you're the one they decide to rile the masses up against.
> Patrick is unabashed about how much learning on the job he’s done over the course of his career.

My feeling is that as soon as you have your first tech job, never learn anything again on your own dime. If it's not a labor of love, it's not labor worth paying for yourself. If a company is not willing to let you learn a technology on the job, that company is not worth working for. I landed a .NET job once with no prior .NET or even statically-typed, compiled language experience. (don't call them 'object oriented', my new filter is calling C++ / Java / C# "object-oriented languages". If you do this in a Ruby job listing, I will mock you mercilessly before adding you to my blacklist of companies I will never work for) My resume was mostly Linux sysadmin and contract web dev.

After that gig, I interviewed at a media company that wanted experience in a CMS that I had just finished building out at that C# job, but turned me down because I didn't also have experience in their similarly-obscure e-commerce solution. Completely satisfied with how that turned out.
A/UX 2.0 was much better than 1.x I think though, including the Finder and MultiFinder (previously Mac apps had to be launched from the command line). Trivia: A/UX 1.x used separate programs to be used at the command line to read/write MFS/HFS volumes, and 1.0 only included the MFS one.

That seems relatively easy to weasel your way out of. Just sell 'download tokens' which enable the user to download any course on the site they want. Whatever legal argument YouTube is using to protect themselves from this with their new premium subscription would also have to apply here.

It is extremely similar to John Oliver's Last Week Tonight spoof religion "Our Lady of Perpetual Exemption" for which they asked for cash donations for essentially nothing in return (and then donated the proceeds to charity).

Which kinda-sorta follows on from Colbert Super PAC which asked for donations to a Super PAC which did essentially nothing and then they too donated it.

CAH are in their right to do "whatever" with the money, but it wouldn't shock me if they donated it.

Exactly. The person above IS correct, they are selling this off of their reputation. But that reputation has many people believing that they will either do something funny OR donate to charity, and that is win/win.

Funny story (missing the point I know), the Dropbox client has provisions to automatically detect other clients on your network and then sync your files to your other computers over LAN rather than through Dropbox servers (files are still synced to the servers of course, but they don't have to make a return trip to your other computers).

So, Github's pull request handling didn't work out? I think the answer is to not use pull requests. Github's handing of code reviews is barely adequate at best. I understand that people need to accept changes from outsiders sometimes, but for reviews between team members, maybe try Rietveld? (I haven't tried it for vendoring, though.)

When reviewing vendor code checkins, you should be making sure they're following the right procedures so that you have everything needed for the next time around: updating documentation about which version was checked in, re-applying any local patches if needed, documenting any new changes that are different from upstream, making sure tests pass, etc. As for the code itself, it's pretty much a rubber stamp; you have to trust that they unpacked the version they said they did. (This is probably not something you want to trust outsiders with.)

If you're not using code reviews and perhaps automation to keep things on track, I can see how it would fall apart.
Your metaphor isn't quite right, a better one would be "should a distributor of a given product be held responsible for determining if the goods they're given are stolen?" To that I would say:

1. A distributor would only use vetted manufacturers, or at least not buy from one again when the products purchased turn out to be stolen

2. When the products are digital, it's much easier to check if they are stolen than physical ones.

3. If it's been determined that a product is stolen, the distributor (generally) isn't held responsible but also isn't allowed to continue selling from the same stock.

Also, I would argue that while it's impossible to detect everything (which is what I said initially too) there should be some legal requirement that the given distributor should show a reasonable attempt to enforce copyright law. The Content ID system, discounting all the ways its abused by a few big companies, is an excellent system for detecting copyright material, and would definitely show that YouTube is at least trying to prevent the spread of material that isn't legal. At the same time, it's clear by this post at least that Udemy is not only NOT vetting their content whatsoever but, similar to Facebook, makes the process to report said content intentionally difficult which I'm sure is not at all related to the fact that as long as said content is live, they're making money.

In short, there's a difference between being a store owner who mistakenly bought stolen products one time, or being a distributor who makes regular business off of stolen product. One shouldn't be held to the fire, one really should.
Writing the kind of thorough examination of these issues your post deserves would be biting off way more than I could chew right now, so I'll just make some random remarks instead.

People pirating entertainment isn't exactly "the free market" in action, but it's close. The common denominator is people doing what they want to, when no one intervenes in their activities.

So if there's nothing to deter people from pirating movies, or to punish them for it, then they'll go ahead and pirate movies. The risk is really small, and the reward is (practically) instant gratification. Very few would pass that up.

On the one hand, I think IP laws shouldn't exist. They're not meant to benefit the creators anyway, but the entertainment industry BigCorps instead.

On the other hand, I think it's wrong, to a small extent, to pirate movies or music or anything else someone has created and put up for sale.

There's a deal available to you, and it's up to you whether you'll take it. You get something, the creator gets money, and both are more or less happy. But if you circumvent the deal by downloading the product instead, that's comparable to stealing without the creator actually losing the product.

Of course, the entertainment industry equates pirating with actual stealing, because it's more impactful that way. That's dishonest too.

But all in all, people will act according to incentives, and they will pursue their personal gain and the satisfaction of their wants and needs. Nothing's going to change that, so it's pointless to even try.

Ultimately IP laws do way more harm than good, and they're not meant to benefit us little guys anyway.

Think of all the patent lawsuits flying around in the US, or that piece of shit Martin Shkreli charging outrageous prices for drugs people need to survive, etc.

All of that follows from IP laws existing too. So it's not just about "creators" getting what they deserve, it's all the scummy other stuff too.

Besides, what anyone deserves for his creation, is whatever he can get people to voluntarily pay for it. Nothing more, nothing less. That's something to keep in mind too. If there's no market for someone's creation, that doesn't mean there should be legislation that makes people pay for it.

Alright, I guess that's enough rambling now.
- Time Machine is a background process so network bandwidth is not super important.

- Can you even Chromecast content that isn't from the internet? I have one and use it with Netflix all the time, but that's news to me.

- Typical living-room fare is only getting into XBMC or onto a hard drive/NAS if it's been BitTorrented. Streaming rules the day for me and for most people, it seems. (Not all of it is legal, of course, but people seem to vastly prefer illicit streaming sites to torrent trackers and clients.)

- OwnCloud is substantially more useful on a VPS so that you can access it from anywhere. Time Warner blocks incoming connections to its residential cable modems, last time I checked.

- IP cameras tend to be low resolution, low framerate, or both.

Of course local networks have their uses. What I contend is that very few people are actually constrained by the ~300Mbps of 802.11n.

Maybe the real application is business networking, so that remote desktop workstations could be practicable without wired networking.
Thanks for this perspective!
Unfortunately when I tried to set up a local synchronization solution I could not find any simple guides without already knowing what the names of the protocols were. Call me a filthy plebian, but in contrast all of my friends already knew what Dropbox was.
You seem to understand the basics of contract law. However you seem to miss that cases are decided by people and not robots, and judges have a great deal of legal flexibility.

That being said, if someone did threaten to sue I highly suspect that CAH would refund the $5 since even a single lawyer's letter costs more than the entire case is worth.
The company isn't stealing the videos, other users are. As long as they take it down promptly and then refund customers, what are they doing wrong? Where's the outrage at youtube then which allows for the same thing? Or paypal or stripe or any ecommerce product which allows for selling something?

It's a problem that's explained and handled by the DMCA, the issue is making sure the company actually follows through with handling requests promptly and accurately.
So if your have every possible iteration of phone numbers in your contact list, you could find every single Telegram account? How is this not a published attack vector?
I can't speak for everyone who pirated music, but back in the day when I did, it was because a CD was $15 and I couldn't afford that shit for every single song I wanted. When iTunes first showed up I thought it was a good idea, but the music came with the DRM bullshit. Then later, Amazon MP3 came around: Reasonable prices for ala-carte tracks, no DRM. I haven't stolen a single song since.

Piracy by most people is a failure of the market to provide. Look at the most pirated content: movies, music, television. All of these have a common vein; traditionally these media are distributed in specific and timed ways, usually at different times around the world, at different prices and at different venues, and all of it for no real reason.

Why should a hardcore fan of Metallica have to wait another three weeks for their new CD just because he lives in a different country?

Why should someone who loves Peter Jackson's movies have to sit and watch his friends in the United States see the movie he can't for another four weeks because he doesn't live in the right spot?

It's all ancient, trivial nonsense and was treated as such. I heard this so many times from me and other people like me: I would totally pay for this, but I have no way of doing so. Such rigid controls on availability of easily pirated content breed piracy and make criminals out of people who otherwise would never have been.
Please don't post unsubstantive comments to Hacker News, and especially please don't be dismissive of new ideas.
Udemy is just a ecommerce/merchant service that just happens to be tailored for hosting video series. This is no different than users stealing content and then uploading to youtube or selling it through a paypal/gumroad/stripe link. In every case the companies would be making a profit either through ads or transactions.

The fault is with the user who uploaded the content and the most effective and realistic option for companies that host user provided content is the DMCA process. No matter how good the filtering process (and I do think Udemy needs to improve vastly here) it's never going to catch everything and this situation is all explained and handled by the DMCA.

The real issue is how they're handling the takedown requests. If they are prompt and accurate with the takedowns and refunding customers then there should be no issue. How they get their own money back from the fraud user is their problem as well. If Udemy is not handling takedowns or refunding customers, then there definitely is a problem and that should be met with actual legal action, not just social/twitter justice.

Edit - why the instant downvotes? haven't seen much other than emotional rants about how Udemy is profiteering but no evidence that the proper DMCA process was followed but denied.
Agree with everything here. I enjoy the startups sticking it to the entrenched, backwards industries but they have a nasty habit of leaving a lot of innocent people stuck in the crossfire.
IIRC, ECC has higher power consumption and generally costs more than non-ECC parts. Not exactly mobile-friendly.

It strikes me as one of those simple ideas that it is well worth trying and which, if it worked, could make a big difference for kids.

> I'm a bit surprised by the authors' reasoning here, as I would have imagined that they would be in favor of allowing the mothers to choose for themselves whether to carry a child. I guess they're in favor of choice unless the choice is different from their own.

I think the idea is that the mothers are innocent and pure and the pressure to abort based on gender of the fetus is external. I imagine there is broad consensus against forced abortions in both pro-choice and anti-choice circles.

YouTube is simply selling you access to the site without advertisement. They are not otherwise demanding payment for the content on their site.
Bank robberies and hostage situations are not imminent threats. Remember, a swatter can make up any story they want. The kind of stories they make up are more along the lines of: A guy is massacring people. With the multiple mass shootings in recent years and now the terrorist attack in Paris, this gets taken seriously.
If I remember right, TAPL (Types and Programming Languages by Benjamin Pierce) contains implementations for nearly everything that it talks about. So you can find another implementation of Hindley-Milner there.

It'd be a bit strange for tab streaming to go over the internet, and there certainly are apps that stream local videos. Maybe they do go over the internet, but I wouldn't just assume it.
It also requires understanding the points people are making.

Everyone agrees that selling pirated content is wrong. Hell, most pirates would agree to that. You can say it's a shitty attitude to have, but it's a consistent one: "Piracy is OK as long as you don't resell what you pirate" is internally consistent, even if you think it's morally wrong.

Similarly, people seem to be consistently against plagiarism, which is apparently at issue here as well. Again, the stance "Piracy is OK but don't pass pirated works off as your own" is internally consistent, even if you think it's morally wrong.
