Couple of things, I'm not a lawyer but I follow IP law and have worked in related fields, this is not legal advice:

The statute he cites says that a person under that law would be required to pay for _damages_ to Sarajevo for use of its name. A blog post is almost certainly not going to create any damages. Also as it's a local ordinance it probably applies only if you are in that city when you write.

>I was already aware that I can’t show you the mascot of those Winter Olympics games, since doing so would be a copyright violation //

He can probably _report_ on it. It's not the EU per se, most copyright goes back to the Berne convention, which leaves some areas open for national variances. Yugoslavia was signatory to that prior to the EU existing, and then there's UCC, TRIPS neither of which rely on EU in any way.

Now, the Olympic Committees are known for abusing IP law, they'll sue you for even an allowed usage of mascots and word marks (ie textual trademarks). That's because most people would rather not risk going to court, and most people don't know IP law well enough to be certain they have an allowed use.

>So, until the architect who designed the building dies and additional 70 years go by //

As he later points out that is a misunderstanding. The building is not the issue, the light display is being considered an artistic work, it's the creator of the light display who owns the relevant copyright here. I don't know French law, but most arrangements of lights would fail at being sufficiently creative to acquire copyright. And of course there are usually exclusions for reporting, as the blogger is doing.

In UK we have Fair Dealing which is extremely restrictive, I'd expect France to have something closer to the much more liberal USA Fair Use in which usually being non-commercial makes copying allowed (though the definition of commercial is nuanced, is not just selling; and being commercial isn't necessarily _not_ Fair Use).

Something I don't know about is how French law would apply, assuming this guy is in Bosnia & Herzegovina, it seems their local law about not showing this "[art]work" shouldn't restrict him?

Also, if he writes privately and has his work published elsewhere, eg on a USA based server, it seems like he should be protected by USA Fair Use laws!?

IMO governments need to have some way to address the chilling effect of being sued for legal activities. A company knowingly operating in this way should have all state IP protections cancelled.

Amazon’s Echo is far ahead of Google Home in sales. They’re trying to get voice in everything. Many companies were showing off Alexa built into their products at CES.

How long before a significant amount of search is simply asking some device a question and being told the answer?
I'd buy into the FUD a little more if the author had redacted the name for real instead of adding a black background color to black text. Selecting the text reveals the name. Obviously that's not going to fool a crawler.
Glad this question came up, because I am always wondering the same. I also was approached several times to work in HFT as a software dev by some of the big firms. My subjective moral compass just seems to refuse anything having to do with such a seemingly corrupt and inhumane endeavor, although the technical challenges must be very interesting.

The greed and complete disregard for society and it's advancement as portrayed through the media and various outlets simply make it a very unattractive career choice to me.

Now this is not meant as a judgement of a whole industry and it's participants, it's simply my naive and uninformed opinion. I would like to read some comments about insiders who might have had my initial aversion, but came to see something different which is positive in some way. Any HFT devs out there with a similar experience?
This is pretty interesting. Seems similar to what segment did for analytics space.

I can totally see I might want to use this is some of my side projects.
BTW any free plans ?
They designed their chips themselves? As in, design the RTL and get it fabricated from a foundary - all by themselves?

Did they hire RTL / Digital Design Engineers?

Just out of curiosity, may I ask the name of the HFT firm?
Thanks for the kind words, Yes in a way this is comparable to segment.

Shoots us a mail for contact@dataturks.com, we could arrange a free plan for our beta users :)

All of my devices are Apple devices. A crappy Dell laptop and my disasstifaction with Windows led me to switch to Apple 12 years ago. I loved the Mac operating system and that momentum got me to buy iPads and their phones. I use Apple Music. I use iDrive.

I don’t use Siri. Apple Maps sucks and as a result I don’t use CarPlay. Apple Music search sucks. There’s a bunch of thing now in Apple’s ecosystem that don’t “just work”. More and more I find myself telling my wife that Apple is slipping. Privacy concerns are the only thing keeping off of Google’s system but it won’t be long before the hostile nature of Apples system forces me to abandon ship.

I think Apple ought to spend a year concentrating on fixing the increasing number of annoyances and stop doing stupid things like keeping Google maps off Car Play. What’s the point of adding features that don’t “just work”?
Isn't Mars around 2AU from the sun? That should weaken solar wind by quite a bit, i.e. by around 4x.
But does the city actually have the authority to put such restrictions? Of course they can say and claim anything, but would it actually stand in courts? What about internationally, is there some agreement that applies?
There are several security issues related to usage of the negation operator that make it undesirable to use in this situation. The solution presented in the article avoids those holes. It also has the advantage that a switch statement is more explicit than use of a language facility.

But maybe I didn't want to the bigger battery in my car? Maybe I would have preferred a lighter car? Or I have some other reason I wanted specifically the small battery? Do I have the option to not have the optional-upgrade-enabled battery? Do I have the option to give the car back because it's not what I ordered?
based on the article, i think the problem of momentum (which you invoke) is the crux of the question.

In poor taste? What's in poor taste here is an individual working in an extremely privileged field (in terms of job security, ease of finding work, and pay scales) attempting to issue a style guide for blue collar workers. For people that actually work for a living this kind of work ethic is a self-defense mechanism. The alternatives are frequently minimum wage service jobs or homelessness. If you feel this strongly about worker's rights (and you should) you might consider volunteering with AFL-CIO organizing efforts in your community. Simple sneering will not suffice.

I’m sorry, I don’t quite understand what you’re saying here?
Hmm. I wonder if companies named after the municipalities they've been founded it have ever needed to deal with this kind of thing from their municipal councils.

Such names exist in many countries. Off the top of my head, I can think of Nokia (Finland, telecom equipment), Emmaljunga (Sweden, prams) and Gorenje (Slovenia, kitchen appliances).

In Finland, University of Helsinki owns helsinki.fi and City of Helsinki owns hel.fi. For a while, the city was apparently pressuring the university to have links to city stuff on the helsinki.fi front page, but it seems that now the front page is all university stuff again.

Enjoyable read. Anyone know if she did a similar research review of concomitant temporary fasting during the pre-application and treatment periods of chemotherapy? Her blog is not searchable and a domain-specific Google search for relevant terms didn't turn up anything.
The author of this article has also summarized most of the basics in a mini-book called "Max Dama On Automated Trading" which can be found online. Highly recommended.

You aren't the only one. I thought the same thing while reading this and felt the mechanics behind the atoms' movement was easy to understand and explain in what the article seems to suggest is difficult to explain. Perhaps either the bucket example was a bad one, not explained correctly as to what was difficult to understand, or Newton didn't understand certain aspects of the physics of atoms at the time. I'm not a physics or history expert, but it seems like a failure of the article to make the problem clear, not you.
Seems like the wrong question, at least with respect to your MBP.

I want to know if we can get compelling competition to macOS & MBP? Use that platform as a trojan horse to win over developers.

While I agree that forced overtime is a problem. I'm not sure I would call it "stealing", as presumably these are hourly workers who are getting paid time-and-a-half wages for the overtime. At the local margins, it's definitely more efficient for the firm, since the other solution would be to hire more workers to meet peak demand who might then sit idle during lower demand periods. To some extent, common overtime availability can be beneficial to both the worker and the firm, but if the demand is highly consistent throughout the year, it's probably ultimately a net negative for the firm.
It seems unfair that you are taking it out on Intel for dropping your product-- when in fact, the entire industry dropped your product. Git is free, more widely supported, open-sourced, and doesn't get angry when a user stops using it. Technology evolves - best not to pick at old scabs.
> How long before a significant amount of search is simply asking some device a question and being told the answer?

Probably never. People read way faster than listen and in a productivity obsessed world this matters a lot. People also don't want others to hear what they are searching for. And these things are part of human nature, not something to get used to.

I can see people doing voice-typing on mobile when they are in private, because mobile is super awkward to type on. But that's about it.
I do exactly the same thing whenever I write C/C++. Genuinely large projects aside, I see no compelling reason to waste your time with build systems. This approach is simple, easy to maintain and lets you get on with writing actual code.
If you want to redefine "rollback" as "any fork that changes a blockchain's data" then ok, but that seems like a misleading definition to me. Normally a rollback means "all transactions are rolled back," which has entirely different consequences. In Ethereum's case, the data afterwards is different even from a rollback/reapply, since the theft is still in the transaction history.

In any case it seems fairly useless to debate what the meaning of "rollback" should be.

I think enterprise / business terminology is heading towards "robot" is what replaces a person doing an existing job (which is why i am surprised to find the moral equivalent of perl scripts being called robots when reporting at board level) and what we might more commonly call AI is for as yet untried opportunities.

Sure. Just replace one by one them when the time comes.
Censorship is an authoritarian tool. It used to be carried out by the might of the sword and now it's enforced by the full weight of the law, hence the "legal censorship" as you put it.
Really great collection with tons of useful snippets!

This seems completely upside down.

So the user must act in service of the product, rather than the product acting in service of the user?
What does article describes us basically the systemic failure of communist economy. Centrally planned OTS might be considered superior amongst software hackers and esp their illuded managers, but it doesn't scale to the chaotic fluctuations down in the store, where the previous local decentralized ordering system worked fine. Only there you can anticipate the true number of stock to shelf. We saw that for centuries in the communist states.

Google or Amazon will not be able to run groceries with lifestock and fresh veggies, only electronics, gifts and books. It's a systemic matter, and highly technocratic manager hierarchies make it only worse.

I would be shocked to hear that they fabricated a chip. The cost and loss of flexibility vs an FPGA makes it unlikely. Very little is so static that the power and latency savings pays for itself. I wouldn't be surprised if these firms fabricated their own crypto ASICs though.
An interesting thing is that since the only specific landmarks in the SoftBank emoji that Apple originally adopted were the Statue of Liberty, Moai, Tokyo Tower and the Shibuya 109 department store; reasonably the only reason the Statue of Liberty is encoded in Unicode Emoji is due to this replica in Odaiba.

The Moai has a replica at Shibuya Station (and even now if you type in "しぶや" into an iPhone it will suggest the Moai emoji) https://emojipedia.org/moyai/

Shibuya 109 never made it into Unicode since it's a commercial building https://emojipedia.org/shibuya/

Has anyone here tried using Purism? They're claiming that they provide 'high-quality privacy, security, and freedom focused computers and software.' They have their own OS and software.

Ah yes, the emergency shipment that must go out ASAP and throws a wrench in dozens of other orders who were previously scheduled to maximize throughput.

Unfortunately you can't really tell management "a lack of planning on your part doesn't constitute an emergency on my part". Contracts often have penalties for late delivery or worse, running a vendor managed inventory level to 0 (full on stopping production costing many thousands of dollars per hour).
The "and" is probably a large error, "legal and public" would be excluded, meaning public companies - who are probably the target of the law - in theory are not affected.

Whether that matters depends on the legal background in B&H, similar errors in UK law have proved costly in the past.
It's very difficult to touch the market independently. The amount of infrastructure that is needed for algorithmic trading is more than any single person could reasonably handle. Not to mention the markets are incredibly efficient already.

The thing is that your manager does not need your permission. He comes in, states he wants to have all the accesses and you give them to him.

If you do not, he rightly fires you.

There are of course many legal cases where administrative access is limited.

What you are describing is scary : you hold the company in hostage, and the company is apparently happy with this since it allows such a posture from their admin team.

Beside the legal aspects I mentioned, I always had complete access to all the thousands machines and services I was ultimately in charge of. I would have test scenarios to ensure access is granted, but did not log into them because there was no reason to do so (and I may break something).

Note: the way how the acces is provided in another story. It should be documented, traceable, etc.

I thought it was about doing scatter plot on graph paper and trying to draw a line with a ruler so that it “almost all points fit”, then empirically measuring the slope and the intercept.

This theory is quite off, as most extremely successful sports heros lead a happy (and mostly drunk) afterlife as celebrity.

You either having problems with the celeb status, or more likely the constant cheating (doping) is hitting at your morale. They can always find you years after. Esp after upper management shakeups. As we saw with many confirmed dopers. I would certainly look more into that angle.
Read my comment again. I said I was aware that some jobs provide no alternative. I did not sneer - in fact I wished him the best. My main point is that many of these workers have the wrong mindset - they get taken advantage of because they are proud about how they have such a ballbusting job-- when in reality many times they are simply being violated. Usually by the direct manager. It is often hard to see outside of ones' direct work environment to gain a perspective. It really depends on the average conditions in that industry and whether they have options. Hopefully the worker is diligent and doesn't get an uneven workload compared to the industry norm. But it takes mindset and effort not to get bamboozled. All I mean is for the best..not trying to talk down to anyone who is a hard worker..

As I have said in an other comment on this thread, the idea is that the city's name is easily discoverable.

You can discover it by highlighting the text, clicking at the button at the bottom of the article, and by following the Wikipedia links in the first paragraph.

I highly doubt that this decision could be upheld in the court. If they want to sue me, I'm ready to "pay for the damage caused" and face legal consequences. Casual Facebook users that are administering Facebook's pages are probably not ready to face the same consequences.

And, since this is my blog, the only third party that could remove the mentions of the name without my consent is my hosting provider (arguably better protection than Facebook offers), but if they do so, I will put on a server on the Raspberry Pi and continue with the distribution.

Hubris. Programmers believe they can solve anything. The belief is so strong that they can look at a centuries old problem, which has puzzled the greatest minds in science, and think they have the simple answer in minutes.

> "At physical education they said it would be really difficult." . That should be a physics education, not? And that preposition is weird. Perhaps "Regarding a physics education, they .."

Yes, but it's more that they are saying it about themselves. The meaning is basically the same as the previous sentence just expressed differently i.e. "People at the music school emphasized how easy it would be for me. People at the physics school said it would be really difficult".

Unusual equipment.

> "How does a computer do when it's going to search for something like when you googlar?" - Perhaps it's supposed to be "What does a computer do when it's going to search for something, like when you use Google?"

"Googlar" is "(to) google" or maybe "googleing" with Swedish conjugation.

I guess "sits" is more common in English.
