But is this really anything new. The scale of investment may be different (although I'm not sure by how much if you take into account high-end real estate). But walk down Fifth Avenue in Midtown or the typical Las Vegas mall (or even--especially--the high-end shopping streets in Beijing) and there's plenty of money allocated toward making and selling things for the 1% plus that have nothing to do with tech.

I recently started having to do a lot of shell work, and shellcheck has helped immensely. It was unfortunate that there was no precompiled version of GHC for my OSX version on homebrew though, so it took 5 hours to build GHC. I ended up turning off all the power save and auto sleep features on my laptop to make sure it kept going.
Some simply aren't willing to do the paperwork one must do with transfers over 10k. More importantly, they make more money off of the loans than they do with cash. This is true even if they must repo the car later on - they can often sue you for at least part of the total cost, minus the amount they sell the car for (that last bit might vary by state, though).

You usually have to agree to some EULA. It's part of the contract. Second q depends on whether you could have known what's in the EULA before you bought it. They're not separate things. There is no such thing as 'buying' and 'agreeing to a licence' or anything like that. A 'licence' is just a contract: party A pays $X to party B, in exchange for which party B lets party A copy its IP, under a given set of conditions. 'pay for the copy but not for the licence' is a grammatically correct sentence but meaningless, like when I'd say 'I punch this wall red with my horse'. Copyright is about 'copying', so if that's what you mean by 'distributors', then yes. But so do 'EULA's' and all other IP-related contracts (usually called 'licences').

As to your last question: yes there is, people have written dozens of book about it. Your local university probably has a bunch of them in their library. If you're asking about a website where you can read in a few paragraphs the complete legal context with definitive answers to questions about general cases (i.e., no 'it depends' allowed) - then no, such a thing does not exist. Look at it this way: if a novice programmer goes onto LKML and says 'hey guys, I want to write an OS, can someone point me to an overview' - then at best he'd be pointed to some high-level overview Wikipedia pages, but most likely, people would snicker and press 'delete' (well actually he'd probably receive a bunch of abuse on how he should get off the list, but that's specific to the example I chose...)

FWIW, I did read a bunch of book like the ones I mentioned above when I was writing a paper on a EULA-related topic during my law degree, and as a result I don't make any blanket statements about the topic any more.

If we have to rely on the next guy, then don't you think this reveals a fundamental flaw in our system?

Imagine if you're designing a system, and you notice that a hacker has exploited some issue and is causing damage, do you really tell people complaining about the exploit as "Not all our customers are going to exploit this issue, the next guy who accesses our system would definitely not use this exploit.

I need to read the rest of this discussion a bit later, but a quick comment in case anyone is still here:

I see mind maps and tables of contents as different UI views of the same data. Years ago I used a product on Windows called Inspiration which let you flip between the two views: a hierarchical/collapsible outline, and a graphical map showing boxes and lines (or such).

Since I found myself using the collapsible outline feature much more than the pictures, but wanted many more features and support for a theory of knowledge, I wrote and am working on adding features to:

http://www.onemodel.org

It makes an internal knowledge graph as one uses the product (stored in postgres, runs fast). It builds an object model on the fly as a side-effect of using the product, using relationships, numbers, etc as knowledge at an atomic level where words are secondary. The best info organizer (for my style at least) that I know of, though (so far) less feature-rich than many products. I hope the About page at that link explains the present and future well.

Even when the subject is Uber you get people who somehow aren't able to process the notion that autonomous vehicles will be shared, managed and maintained by large scale professional fleet management services, and rented on a per trip basis.

> if Walmart does not lower the salaries and transfer the savings to the customers then some other company is going to beat the to it and manage to provide the cheapest good for the same quality

This excuse can be used to justify virtually any deplorable behavior by a corporation. "If _we_ don't cut prices by dumping waste directly into the river, another company will!" Costco competes head-to-head with Walmart on prices, and doesn't treat their employees like cattle.

That video was essentially useless seeing as the clips never lasted for more than a split second (maybe I'm just bad at focusing this morning?). Other than that, this looks pretty good. I really like the white/monochromatic stuff I've seen floating around on Twitter lately. (I'm a Mac guy that hasn't used Windows since 7.)
It seems to me that whether Walmart gains or loses from a welfare benefit paid to workers depends on the structure of the benefit. IANAE. If the benefit is tied to working, like the EITC, it makes the worker willing to work for a lower wage. i.e. the result of the benefit is to shift the supply curve for labor down, so that the equilibrium wage is lower. On the other hand, if the benefit is not tied to working, it seems to me that it shifts the supply curve up. I'm less willing to take a low-paying job once I know I at least won't starve. This means that Walmart pays more.

That welfare benefits are means tested complicates things significantly.
The same thing happened in the 90's, my coworker's sister got a "Certificate in HTML" and promptly found a job for $80k in 1998. These people wash out, I've been burned enough times by bootcamp grads that I won't hire them anymore
This is effectively how a rolling code works. You have a space of say, 2^16 keys that repeats. The car and keyfob share the same index to the keyspace, and increment one for every transaction.

If someone tried to "replay" an older key, the car would reject it. However, what if the user accidentally presses the button while not in range of the car?

To account for this, the system will "partially accept" keys "ahead of schedule" for about half the keyspace. The car advances its pointer (let's say N+5), and waits for N+6 to unlock.

Since most older keyfobs are simply "one way transmitters", PKI is out of the question. Newer keyfobs are able to receive as well, and could preform a handshake. However, car manufacturers are notoriously bad at security.
You thought it was universal knowledge that 80% of insect biomass has dropped in nature reserves around the world with no obvious cause?
One can also read this as an argument for extremely high taxation for a while so one can cut it later and get growth.
One other handy feature that we're using is the ability for Vault to set user IDs in the signed key ID field which then get logged by sshd on the remote host. That way we can still audit who exactly logged in if using a single user on the remote host.
It may be what you consider 'trivial', but it is by no means anonymous, unless you are already engaged in some form of elaborate identity theft/falsification. Nearly all transactions are in bitcoin, from what I've read, and it is pretty much impossible at this point to acquire & spend bitcoins in a truly anonymous manner (unless maybe you have an IP address which cannot be tied to you in any possible way, including by security cameras or smartphone data).

Law enforcement may not be choosing to do anything about this on a large scale yet, but if you're leaving a trail, they can always decide to make you part of a big dragnet bust in the future. Technology makes this kind of thing easier and easier for them to do as time goes on.
If you go just a bit further, the one who made you drill a hole in your skull does, though...
Are these venture capitalists even seeing a return on their money? I was under the impression that with how much Uber receives and loses, the only people gaining are paid Uber employees and riders getting discounted rides.

Where does the profit come from, and does it go to the VC investors?
This is a spurious analysis, Walmart is large enough and invested in keeping the system the way it is (low un-liveable minimum-wage) to support its business. As a huge corporation it has considerable effect in that regard.
I would suggest running through a tutorial or two using one of the hosted machine learning options (Amazon has one I am working with right now).

This will let you focus on the essence of machine learning (data gathering and cleansing, interpretation) rather than the mechanics. The gathering of data and building of intuition about results are by far the hardest parts of machine learning, in my experience and reading. This is especially true if you are just getting started.

Plenty of time to focus on the mechanics later.

(Full disclosure, I am working on a ebook about Amazon machine learning link in profile.)
Thank you Internet stranger!
That's not true. When was the last time you saw a EULA on a book or a CD? Software is not fundamentally different. I give you money, you give me a copy of the product, and then copyright law lets me use that copy within certain bounds.

Thank God the guys who write the kernel never thought about this :-)

Besides, this isn't what I was criticizing. What I wrote (it often helps to read the whole argument before offering a counterpoint) is:

> Both major projects (Gnome and KDE) are increasingly depending on Linux-specific technologies (mainly through systemd dependencies, e.g. timedated, localed, hostnamed and logind, which are explicitly Linux-specific). They can be replaced by shims, fortunately, but these are difficult to write, because the components that they replace move quickly, often not very transparently, and without much documentation.

Windows, MacOS and (at least Open)BSD don't get all this hate because they tend to introduce components when they're reasonably stable and almost always with full, proper documentation. They rarely dump beta-quality code for the community to test and document, like Red Hat did with pretty much every desktop technology they developed after 2005 or so.
Yes. There is a rolling code both inside your car rx and the fob tx. They get out of sync (think of pushing your car unlock when your car is not around) but the fob can never be behind the car.

By jamming the the rx at the car it never gets code X+1 but the attacker does so the car never rolls ahead. Then, the attacker replays X+1 and the car unlocks.

This attack has been known for a quite a long time along with the TPMS hack (made famous but rutgers and U South Carolina http://www.sc.edu/news/newsarticle.php?nid=1202#.WRXDdVXythE)

Why not? If I own a chair, I have the right to use it. If I own a copy of the software (that I paid for in a store, for example), then there is nothing in law that says that I cannot use it. I have rights over what I own. Nothing restricts that.

Copyright law exists to protect software writers by providing them with a means to make money making software. This law restricts my ability to make copies. There is no law that restricts my ability to use what I own.

Yet Allo has less users than IRC, or Signal, or Telegram. And Duo has less than Skype.

Dual booting isn't a perfect solution but I'm sure it's a lot easier than trying to design a UI that can adapt to screen sizes as disparate as a phone screen and a monitor. I'm a little leary of hardware pre-orders as it's easy to get burned but I'll definitely keep an eye on it.

Can I ask your opinion on a (somewhat) related recent book? (specifically, it has examples about succesfully using diet changes instead of surgery, for people who were already scheduled to have heart surgery).

Namely "The Plant Paradox" by Dr. Gundry. From what I found he is (or used to be) a well-respected heart surgeon with some influential papers on his name. But I could find just a few summary articles on his current research program, which focuses on diet, foods with lectins in particular, and their relation to auto-immune disease, obesity, heart problems, and more.

I found the book very interesting, and his theories seem plausible to me (someone with no medical background whatsoever). But I also got the impression he may be overstating his case a bit, over-generalizing, so I was wondering about the opinions of medical experts on his work.

Question: Is that what Stallman intended to accomplish with the GPL? Pay a fee for GPL source code and bypass the GPL? (I apologize for my ignorance here.)

It seems like "reciprocity" has an even worse outcome than BSD source code. The origin of the source code can be completely hidden from the user.

Do users deserve to know at least that the original source code was freely available? What happens when users discovers that they are paying for something that others are getting for free? Do they care?

Is this a case of taking something that was free (but valuable), i.e., the original GPL source code, and concealing it as a closed source work in order to generate revenue/profit for some specific person or entity?

Stupid question: If someone fixes or adds something valuable to GPL source code and wants to charge for it, then why not just charge for the patch or the additional code?

(Assume that patches or additional source code files are distributed by themselves without the original GPL source code and that they do not contain any functional portion of the original GPL source code. Assume further that they do not use "interfaces" designed by the GPL source code author. Finally, assume that the end user can compile their own software and no binaries are distributed.)
> it should work with the native share functions in mobile browsers

I honestly never thought about that. That's a much better workflow! And it actually solves the problem of most mobile users being unable to install plugins.

Sounds promising!

I am very much against ever shelling out from an application. Either write a shell script, or a proper application. Nothing bugs me more than shell scripts written in Python, Perl, or even gasp C++ (he was later fired).

However, most bash scripts I interact with will take at least 2-4 times the amount of code to replicate as a proper application. The line count example is a good pro-shell one, with 6 not particularly nice lines of code replacing a single, simple line:

egrep -v ':/bin/bash$' /etc/passwd | wc -l

"Complicated" AWK scripts are also much more compact than their equivalent. Say, `xyz | awk '/thing/ { getline; print $0; }'` to get the line after a pattern. I wouldn't write an AWK script much more complicated than that, though, and for me, Perl and AWK belong in the same bucket.

moral of the story is, know you licences. Adhere to the license terms. Seek out projects with more permissive licenses if you plan to do closed source.

It is simple to work around licence issues with your project. You just have to put in the work. Know that your design may have to factor in extra time because you can't use lib XYZ because you have to write your own library to do the same thing. If using lib XYZ will save a bunch of time, then know that you will have to adhere to lib XYZ license. Maybe writing a wrapper application that you opensource, and your closed source application interfaces with might be a design consideration.

In the end, it's your project, your call. Just know when you make a decision you weigh the pro's and con's of going forth with that decision.

Adobe is about 34 years old, so the copyright on any program that interacts with an Adobe file format (e.g. postscript, pdf) cannot have expired yet (in the absence of time travel). So if the source code did not come with a license, it is their responsibility to obtain one, or they can't use it.
