No, from my understand of current US copyright law (not a lawyer), this would be considered either a performance or a derivative work, depending on whether it is exactly reproduced. Neither of those are under fair use.
That's a good hypothesis that should be answerable if there is county-level race data.

Also, how good is "county-level" at correlating to population density? Some huge cities are their own counties, but are there many counties that have an urban seat and also outlying areas, with a significant split into two sections of similar population, but very different population density?

LeBron also has very healthy body mechanics, which is an underrated part of durability. The difference between more durable and less durable players isn’t only down to conditioning and training and genetics; an NBA player jumps and lands, cuts and stops, and generally subjects his body to the limits of what it can withstand. Constantly and repeatedly doing that in biomechanically vulnerable ways (bracing the knees inward, trying to stick one-footed landings, landing on the heels, letting the knees translate in front of the toes) will absolutely wear down and break any player.

The scary thing is that while living in Russia, I've encountered many people with similar views (face to face).

I know it's hard to believe for western people but there are lots of people in Russia who completely obsessed with ideas of "unique Russian identity", "God chosen nation", "Russian world", "saint Russia vs. soulless American imperialism" etc.

Putin understands feelings of this part of society and successfully exploits this in order to push his own agenda. For example:

Being familiar with a machine, and taking that knowledge elsewhere seems qualitatively different from wholesale copying of documents and blueprints.
That wouldn't solve the problem. Studies (random picks [0] [1]) showed that on that day when you wake up earlier than your body is used to there is a visible increase in road accidents, deaths in surgeries, etc. People are more likely to make mistakes. It also poses lots of logistical issues when an hour "repeated" itself or "disappeared".

The whole point is to not have to adjust your body's rhythm, and also to eliminate the planning glitches that occur around the moment of the switch, not just to save time on turning back a clock.

It is a pretty nifty concept - having time in a day measured as divisions of 1000 (a "beat", a minute and some seconds) is aesthetically more pleasing and probably easier to deal with rather than divisions of 60, 24, and 12.

Kinda like how SI units are easier to reason about than imperal ones.

After skimming the bill, I have to say that this is a bad law.

Without even considering whether or not I would support the purpose for which it was written, I can't imagine it passing constitutional muster - on its face it violates both the Fourteen Amendment's "equal protection" clause and Title VII of the Civil Right Act of 1964.

If what they want to accomplish is "ensure that corporate boards are not made up entirely of men", then the law should have been written to say that in a way that is not gender-specific - instead of definition "female", it should have defined "minority gender", and required minimum numbers of the minority gender on boards of given sizes.

There's also the small consideration that as far as I can tell, a corporation that has only one shareholder of record can have a board with only one member. This bill appears to literally make it illegal for anyone who does not self-identify as a woman to form and operate such a corporation. Existing corporations in this class would be forced by law to add an additional board member if and only if the owner is not female. That's absurd.
In what way exactly? can you explain please? How is my point changed whether I use 0.001% or 0.000001% or 0.00000001%? The overall idea of a "very small number" is conveyed regardless of the number of zeroes used - if that's not true, please enlighten me.
You can already have audible (and I think vibration) feedback. That doesn't tell you when you're drifting off they keys. Only feeling the edge or tangent of a key will do that.

Indeed. The Bay Area is one of the most environmentally friendly areas to live for this reason.

Economist Ed Glazer makes the argument that by not allowing more housing to be built there, more people have to live in more energy consumptive locations (Houston, for example). Housing development policy of the Bay Area has a big environmental impact.

That means oversize or special handling due to size or weight.

Also most air freight goes in the belly of passenger planes - more than goes in dedicated freighter aircraft. Your luggage is competing with that space. In addition it costs more money to handle luggage vs not handling it all.
You probably already know this, but of course the companion trivia there is that chess masters' incredible recall for board positions only works for realistic layouts - when tested on randomly placed pieces, masters apparently remember them no better than beginners.

If basketball is analogous, one could suppose that (A) there may not be anything special about LeBron's memory per se - e.g. he might remember the plays in a cricket match as poorly as anyone else - and (B) it argues that on the court LeBron is thinking out the game, and the implications of each exchange, in a way comparable to how chess masters think out moves (and he probably puts similar mental effort into the other pursuits the article describes).
Eh, until the very late 90s it wasn't that bad. After the dot com bust things got especially bad.

I meant to respond to this earlier. Yeah, it seems the mainstream acts when it's in their face, there's working exploits, they're dressed up somehow, and there's an immediate action to take. I guess the route to get secure hardware/software architectures is a series of highly-publicized breaks in every component with a Right Thing solution and alternative suppliers that used it. They also move fastest when the damage is high.

So there's a recipe for change. Of course, there's possibly some ethical and legal issues in there. ;)

How are you using org-mode for this?

I have recently switched all my note-taking and task/todo management to org-mode, but I'm still figuring out how to use it properly. At the moment, I just have a personal.org, refile.org and project specific .org files, all kinda taking the shape of headings with sub-sub-sub-sub-headings inside until there is either none or some content inside, but a personal wiki, it doesn't feel like. It feels more like ordered mess, kinda. It's definitely better than anything I've ever used before.

Any good tips you want to share?
That might be intentional. We're used to seeing people walk, so it would be easy to point out flaws in transformed video of people walking. With the unusual movements, we attribute it to the moves because we're not used to seeing them.
Impressive, no doubt. This type of memory happens more often than people realize to athletes and coaches.

Pattern recognition in competitive sports is extremely valuable.

Lebron is one of the all time greats because he combines such unique gifts, his memory, his work ethic, his physicality, size and quickness.

He is just a freak all the way around.

His basketball IQ has some interesting affects on teams he plays though. He has problems submitting and listening to his coaches. Often because he thinks he is right, which he often is.

Still, there can be only one person making decisions and Lebron does not like to give up his power.

This is ultimately what caused him to leave Miami. He was the 4th most important person in the organization behind the owner, the GM Pat Riley, the head coach and the homegrown star (Dwayne Wade).

When he went back to Cleveland, he went to an organization that he could dominate from top to bottom.

I think his desire for influence and power has hurt his career to a certain extent.

If he had gone to San Antonio, for example, he might have had several more titles by now.

I don't see the Lakers winning one in the few years, so Lebron will probably end his career with 3.
OK my word choice was wrong.

maybe those who don't fully internalise the risk go use it..because now _it's legal_ and why would the government let anything be sold in a normal retail setting if it wasn't ok to use?

so, you & I are ok but the next generation..maybe it starts becoming a _much_ better bang for buck than alcohol. and soon we have a load more with a serious life-devastating drug addiction. short sighted at best to legalise it which (make no mistake) absolutely will normalise it.. criminally insane otherwise.
Very cool idea, I worked for a site that worked with merchants and their menus were the worst part about it. There is no standard menu structure, a lot of merchants have a variety of mandatory and optional selections based on an item. You want a burger? Ok, you must pick a temperature and you can select from 3-5 toppings, some of those toppings are extra cost, etc. This is a cool idea, just wanted to give you a heads up

It is a matter of belief, I suppose :-) One can believe in the reality where the captor is constantly thinking of how to provoke the captive and then destroy him, or in the reality where the captor is minding his own business until he is provoked. The Russia of the first decade of the 2000s rather resembled this second reality. Whether the reality has switched to the first one, I am not sure.
There are different extremes. Elixir is one that keeps things developer friendly and enforces everything. The new Programming Elixir book is probably a good place to start. It has constructs that definitely smooth the transition...and it’s really just a wonderful language.

Plus the runtime is excellent for server side.
> Implementing an interface is not the same thing as inheritance.

Correct, but typical OO languages implement interfaces via inheritance since that's the only means of extension.

The problem with inheritance is that it conflates subtyping with subclassing. These are separable concerns, so with interfaces you get proper subtyping without subclassing, but you can't typically have subclassing without subtyping which is why inheritance should generally be avoided.

Well, a think a spouse might justifiably care in the case of cheating.
Not to disagree with you, but in this specific case, might there be a use for blockchain to support AI, as its reliable "memory"?

AI systems process data streams that by definition change as time passes, and previously-streamed data becomes the AI's memory, so to speak. If so, then using databases that allow for data to be manipulated post facto makes the AI's memory unreliable.

In providing verifiably accurate and permanent memories to AI systems, could blockchain be advantageous in certain cases to the development of AI?

In theory: fine. In practice: it's Swift. I would think very carefully before using a bunch of enums with payloads (aka " associated values"). The current syntax means you will probably wind up with either unreadable code, or a lot of extra complexity. I hope in the future, Swift improves the syntax for comparing, creating payload enums, and accessing their payloads. Until then, there are pros, but large cons too.

So you need a data structure (or language) that have size embedded in, and the knowledge (and restrictions) of that data structure need to spread to every libraries or function that one use (we are talking about string handling here). It appears to me that you have cornered yourself that the only solution is to modify C/C++ standards to redefine string handling.

I am not saying that is bad. But solutions already exist. One is using the string class, another being transiting to a dynamic language (having size as part of data structure and checking it at every usage is one step into dynamic types).

Alternatively, the compiler can take over this responsibility by statically check every call (the rust solution). That is a different language. On that, I have a question: how can we pass the syntactic buffer size into a static library without embedding the size into the data? If we do embedding the size, then it is still dynamic within the context of the library.

Either way, one should not still be discussing the safety of strncpy here.

Now as long as we are discussing strncpy, I assume it is given that we do not want to have buffer size as permanent part of the simple string type and we are not looking for any solutions that demand an overhaul of the language/libraries. I assume it is given that caller takes the responsibility of buffer size -- exchange with a bit responsibility for simpler system and greater control.

You won't have a good solution (or good discussions) without confining our context first.
The more I think about this, the more sense it makes to say you should check the length of the buffer before they copy. I'm not sure an assert is always right, exactly what should be done if the string doesn't fit may depend on what the program is doing. But silently truncating is generally not the right thing to do.
This is really nothing different from Anthony Lewandowski and friends.

The real advantage of this bill has nothing to do with equality. It does sort of have something to do with busting up "old boys networks."

The idea is simple. The women who will be eligible for these positions will understand who put them onto the board. Not the people who hired them, but the people who passed this law. And the people who laid the philosophical groundwork that led to this law. That will create a sort of ideological loyalty.

Now boards will be staffed by many members of a cohesive "class" that have common interests and loyalties.

Ideological loyality is awesome. Especially when the ideology is radical equity. It creates a more cohesive society. So I say more power to them, literally.
