This was a ruling that the contract between the plaintiff and defendant existed, not on the validity of the contract (which is the GNU GPL license).

Defendant (Hancom) was trying to say that because they didn't sign anything they didn't have a contract.

But Hancom "represented publicly that its use of Ghostscript was licensed under the GNL GPU"

Therefore, the Judge ruled that in their own words they publicly acknowledged the contract.
I wonder if this applies to non copy left licenses as well.

You do know that it's trivial to obtain these drugs (and tests) on tor marketplaces right?

In case you did not, the alphabay sells both drugs and tests, and certain countries (like the Netherlands) also have labs that test your drugs for a small fee with no chance of prosecution. Alternatively in the Netherlands you can also buy the tests from normal webshops like https://azarius.nl/.
Yeah. I have no particular problem with the quip. It's an expensive electric toothbrush but not ridiculously so. For me, it ultimately wasn't great as an electric toothbrush for travel which is what I bought it for. But, in general, I take advantage of subscriptions and automated billpaying etc. when I really do want things to be on autopilot as much as possible.

Unfortunately, manufacturers are prohibited from selling directly to consumers in many states. As usual, scratch below the surface of a "market failure", and you're likely to find some regulation getting in the way.
This isn't a replay attack in the traditional sense. The attack works by simultaneously receiving the fob signal while jamming it to the car so it doesnt see it. Then, the car can't roll ahead its table.

To say another way, it exploits the fact that you can be a hundred miles from your car and push the unlock button on your fob but then return next to your car, push the fob, and the car unlocks.
They target streaming-only movies, not Netflix. I'm sure if Netflix sold the rights to their movies so that they can be shown in local cinemas they wouldn't have any issue.
Emulator Not Is Windows, to be precise.
I think they are talking about any situation where a smaller business is sued by a larger one; the larger party doesn't have to be right, they just need to have enough funds to stalemate the smaller party until they get driven out of business.

Josh here (I created this content). I really love Elixir and want more people to use it, and I think this is a pretty good 'intro for existing developers'. All of our content is geared towards existing developers, as we kind of hate having people explain what a variable is to us in introductory content.

I'd love any feedback you have, either on this content specifically or on DailyDrip in general. Thanks so much!

In consumer terms AMD's got a compelling product for mid-range GPUs where most of the money is but NVidia's got the top of the range locked up. Hopefully we'll see some good chips out of AMD soon which combine a genuinely good CPU core with a good GPU in one package which'll be really nice in the low end of the market.

As for scientific computing I suppose there are workloads where having your GPU and CPU on one die might give you latency savings that are worth it but mostly NVidia is going to keep owning that market for the next few years.
I think WSL is a result from the work Microsoft did to run Android apps on Windows. If I'm not mistaken, they decided to scrap that because of this issue, if developers can target Android and run on Windows mobile, why would they target Windows?

I don't think that will be an issue with GUI programs on computers, but it might for CLI programs.
This entire comments section is like reading a news article and realizing the journalist is running on nothing but conjecture and stereotypes.
Binding arbitration has its place. Look at the binding arbitration decision between Qualcomm and Blackberry, which is resulting in Blackberry receiving an $815,000,000 refund from Qualcomm after a royalty dispute involving licensed standard essential patents.

Because it was binding arbitration and not traditional court proceedings, this judgment is not appealable. This compressed what would have been a 10-year drawn out and extremely costly process into five days. That's it!

There are more arguments against binding arbitration when it's an individual against a conglomerate - you get a biased arbitrator and you're sunk with no means of redress.

> If we tilt the drone by hitting it, will the policy stabilize it again?

My understanding of the way this is being done is that the output from the machine learning model is already a simple "left", "right", "straight on", so it's not really responsible for stabilization anyway.

That side of things is likely being handled by the drone's control software which takes those inputs, translates those into what angle the propellers need to be at to achieve it, and then translates that into the correct rotor speeds. If you hit the drone the gyroscope will pick up that it's at the wrong inclination, feed that information into the control software, and the control software will adjust rotor speeds to correct.
Almost every online car purchasing service at major brands is a white labeled truecar. Don't assume that, say, the "AAA" or "Costco" brand is giving you any special treatment. Your lead goes into a lead queue, a price that is better than floor/sticker but not as good as you may have gotten from negotiation is given, and you, saving time and stress instead of money, buy the car.

I was a huge fan of truecar until I did the experience, and now I'm hugely disappointed. I felt like the experience hid information and shepherded me to a dealer to let it take advantage of me; I saved some time and hassle, but I spent more money in the process and at the end, wasn't all that happy. YMMV, so check out the tool (directly or via AAA or Costco etc.), but be realistic over what it can do: it makes money from the dealers, not you, so be aware of biases.

I haven't tried non-online services (personal negotiators, etc.) so can't speak to those.
Where do you get "less value"? They are just delimiting what kinds of movies the will considered for their festival. The Academy Awards also have certain restrictions on the picture format in place to prevent straight-to-video movies from consideration.

If you don't like going to the cinema, why do you care about Cannes at all? It is a film festival which celebrate cinema and the associated mystique and glamour. Nobody is preventing you from watching whatever you want in your home cinema.

I wrote this to try to prod some bloggers/writers to look into this, as this puzzle is being pondered on the internet but not 'breaking through' to the larger media. My title (Biggest Hollywood mystery of the year) is not hyperbolic, it's literally true. The abrupt silence from people and companies involved in this is very strange, and in the context of the fan campaign to get it released, would make fertile ground for an enterprising journalist.

There's just something magical about blinking LEDs in programming. I fondly remember hooking up rows and rows of LEDs to the GPIO of an AVR when I was a kid (maybe I should find that board and hook up the LLVM AVR backend to julia ;), but the RPi does make that kind of thing a whole lot easier. I'm glad this collaboration worked out.
This is very cool. I'd like to have seen a video demo, though. It'd be neat to see gravity get stronger or weaker in a platformer with the twist of a knob, for example.

What does it mean to be for "high taxes"? I'm for the government taxing enough to pay for whatever services it's offering but that should be as low as possible.

Governments are an extreme example of any other bureaucracy. They always find a way to spend every dollar they're collecting and usually more than that too.
I disagree. Silicon Valley represents a distinct form of tech capitalism, characterized by the 10x firms and sky-high valuations of products that have yet to make a cent in profit.

Tech capitalism has a different tone in other places. A friend of mine works remotely for a company based in the Midwest, and the corporate/VC culture is worlds apart from Silicon Valley/San Francisco.

You are correct. What I meant is that they have only a short amount of time around 3 years which is generally not enough to pull off large infrastructure projects as most governments only last 2 terms and the opposition claims credit if it was successful.

True.

But it's not the same.

For the EU, each country has it's own marketplaces, own stores, own food cuisines, own ways of doing things. Why? Because they still have their own national identity.

In America it's one language, a Walmart in Utah is the same Walmart in Florida, same for Tacobell or Golden Corral. Why? Because it's just one country.

Until you start moving to the United States of Europe. Both experiences won't be the same.
I have some sympathy for Paramount in this. First the social-​justice types went after them for not casting an Asian lead, then the critic reviews were unkind, then it really under-performed at the box office, and now people are upset about the music not being released… Some marketing exec over there is probably like “I don’t want to hear about GITS anymore, ever!”

> Of course, whether Artifex will actually win the case it’s now allowed to pursue is another question altogether.

It's fairly clear that they will win the case in one fashion or another. I am predicting that the case will quickly be settled out of court for a lump sum plus a running licensing fee. You have a public admission from the defendant that they integrated the plaintiff's Ghostscript software into their own without either: 1) making the resulting Hancom office suite open source, or 2) paying Artifex a licensing fee for the software.

The case against Hancom was solid under copyright infringement, and now has the added sting of breach of contract.

I didn't do much though, just had to drive around the area.
> They have better cell phone plans, with free calls and texts.

The US has awful phone plans. You can get unlimited data in the UK for less than 25 a month. You can get 'enough' data for most people (2-3gb) for a tenner on pay as you go. Back when I was living in the US it was practically impossible to get away with paying less than 35-40$/month for anything with a reasonable amount of data and I haven't heard any news about this having changed recently.

Also do not underestimate vacation time. In my experience most companies in the UK give you around 5. I am on 6 weeks currently. It's great earning more money but if you have no time to actually use that money then that defeats the purpose a little bit in my opinion.
Hang on a minute. If millenials are so ambitious and craving of advancement, what kind of advancement is going to be possible without hierarchy? Certainly ditching hierarchy narrows the options for rewarding employees.

Also, ditching hierarchy risks royally pissing off older workers that have worked for years to ascend, and in some cases these are the very people whose knowledge is indispensable to the functioning of the company. Finally, at some point these millennials will get older, and some may stay at a company for years. How then to reward loyalty if hierarchy is ditched? Isn't loyalty worth rewarding via hierarchy given the cost of hiring new people and having them learn the business?
I thought the reason most people switch companies every 2-4 years was because it pays better to switch companies, instead of remaining loyal to one company and relying on increases/promotions within the company.

To use Ghostscript for free, Hancom would have to adhere to its open-source license, the GNU General Public License (GPL). The GNU GPL requires that when you use GPL-licensed software to make some other software, the resulting software also has to be open-sourced with the same license if it’s released to the public. That means Hancom would have to open-source its entire suite of apps.

Alternatively, Hancom could pay Artifex a licensing fee. Artifex allows developers of commercial or otherwise closed-source software to forego the strict open-source terms of the GNU GPL if they’re willing to pay for it.

This obligation has been termed "reciprocity," and it lies at the heart of many open source business models.

http://www.rosenlaw.com/pdf-files/Rosen_Ch06.pdf

The more important issue here is reciprocity, not whether an open source license should be considered to be a contract.

AFAIK, the reciprocity provision of any version of the GPL hasn't been tested in any meaningful way within the US. In particular, the specific use cases that trigger reciprocity remain cloudy at best in my mind.

Some companies claim that merely linking to a GPLed library is sufficient to trigger reciprocity. FSF published the LGPL specifically to address this point.

So I believe a ruling on reciprocity would be ground breaking.

It's a very narrow ruling, conditioned on the fact that the defendant, Hancom, publicly acknowledged they were using Ghostscript under GPL. It does not say much, if anything, but IANAL, about a defendant who would not have acknowledged this, which seems like the more interesting question.

Common law judges are very prudent in their ruling.
Most probably both. However this is probably for the best.
WhatsApp does monitor their network and API calls being performed. This way they ban spammers and fake clients going on the WhatsApp network. I suspect they use some form of Machine learning to filter out the non-users and when you're identified: you're getting banned. This means that you can no longer use your phone number and need a new SIM. So this story isn't feasable for "huge amounts of data". You might be able to download a few 100k of profile picutures but you will get banned.

Honestly, I'd bet they can stop subsidizing growth at this point and not die.

Sure, competitors will start to gain more traction, but they're already in a lot of markets and competitors can't afford to have the same coverage as Uber. So while they'll lose a lot of people that are only local (see Austin for an example of this happening in a more complete way), I think they will retain pretty much all international/business travel type business, which is a pretty big moneymaker, just due to the convenience of "one app".

e.g. when I fly from London to the states, I take an Uber to the airport in London and take an Uber from the airport wherever I land (assuming they have Uber). One app, one linked credit card, etc.

I don't want a different on-demand car app for each city I happen to visit, which is where Uber will win out for the foreseeable future.
