This ideas is good, I think. However, there are some of my opinion:

1. You should be allowed to waive the right to be recognized as the author. Also, if someone uses your stuff in the way that you do not like, then you should not force to remove the picture but are allowed to require to know that you do not endorse the use of it. Also, should still be prohibited to claim that someone else wrote something even though actually you did and they didn't write it.

3. Possibly, copyright could be shorter for practical works than for artistic works. I see other comments disagree about what the length should be. I think twenty years is too long even for artistic works; one possibility (although I am not sure what is best) might be: For artistic works, five years automatic and five years requiring payment. For practical works, three years automatic and three years requiring payment. (But, then, you have to define this properly.)

5. Perhaps the ban on DRM should be, instead of a total ban, a combination of: (a) A prominent warning label is required. (b) Some rules similar to like what the GPL3 has about DRM is required ;for example, maybe any DRM system would be required to make available that the user is able to use the rights that the GPL3 provides for the user (such as availability of source code, Installation Information, can share the corrected version, etc). (c) Requirement that the companies do not try to work together to enforce the DRM.

Also, I think patent should be abolished entirely so that you are not restricted to do some thing just because someone else patented it. (With the possible exception of "design patents", which perhaps should still be allowed to exist, but limited to a lesser duration and only applicable to commercial use, maybe. And it should not apply to screen layouts that do not include graphics.) (Also, any patent explaining an invention would still be allowed to be published, although it would have no legal value; it is simply one kind of archive.)

They also mention, "how should the artists get paid?" I think that, even if it doesn't restrict you from copying it, does not prevent you from selling books.
I guess I understand why they didn't mention it in an article about a specific exhibit, but my absolute favorite example of this sort of thing is a, ah, highly imaginative rendition of the American Revolutionary War, complete with George Washington punching out a tiger.

See the links at the top of the post. Both are excellent.
Molly is a drug, so basically they said they got high all weekend. I don't have a problem with it personally, but a lot of workplaces do.
It is possible to have personality traits that are not a medical diagnosis.
Then, you should allow to have more than one party together, so that if some party is some issues and other party can then make the other issues that they are more knowledgeable about.

(Maybe the result is that there is no single prime minister, but maybe that isn't the result; I don't know.)
Note that glucose is only a proxy for the actual thing we want to control, which is insulin.
What an incredible story. I wonder why it was shared today, but thank you for doing that.

I had a great aunt who died and left my siblings and I a small amount of money. Her death was my introduction to wills and estates. The people who followed through on her will did my family an incredible service.

I can't imagine how hard it is to do this work for people who haven't got any friends or relatives who are in touch with the deceased person.

I'm glad to hear that there is a process and that the city and state governments try to do the right thing and to minimize theft from the dead and their families.
Why have we made our systems so complicated that it takes years of experience to run software on a computer?
What are Pythons biggest issues from your perspective?
Minor nitpick: I think you meant to write "<command> | sudo tee".

And a question on the comment - In general (I don't have a lot of benchmarking experience, I did a few of them and used lower quartile to reduce the impact from interference), is it hard to determine that the minimum is not shrinking anymore ? I suppose we could run a benchmark until we have a certain amount (say 3, but it will depend on the distribution) of relatively close minimum values ? This seems to be a good way to have a good probability of obtaining the "true time required" you mentioned.
Neville Chamberlain was a Unitarian and he was surrounded by Unitarians providing him advice. Unitarians believe that people are basically good, but sometimes you just need to find the right incentives.

Exactly the wrong worldview to deal with the likes of Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini, Tojo.
Insulin controls blood glucose. So how do you figure blood glucose is merely a proxy for insulin and not the actual thing an artificial pancreas is intended to control?
Proofs aren't very hard to review, especially because math doesn't have the proprietary problems of wet science so drafts aren't hidden. Such is the benefit of working in a field no one can profit from :-)
Math doesn't have a replication crisis; false papers are rare.
Take a look at the links at the top of the post. They discuss a great alternative to mocking slow services: fakes.
>However, they can still cause companies to go bankrupt that would have otherwise survived.

If a company's operations aren't profitable, it wouldn't have "otherwise survived". If it is profitable, then bankruptcy will wipe out debt and permit it to continue operations, hence it will continue to survive. It's the difference between Chapter 7 and Chapter 11.

>In any event, in a system where banks are not allowed to fail, I cannot see how they should be allowed to finance LBOs.

What work is LBO doing in this sentence? Financing LBOs carry some risk of loss, as does everything except Treasuries. Why would LBOs be special as something banks shouldn't be allowed to finance? Why are banks uniquely bad at risk analysis of LBO debt as opposed to, say, regular corporate debt, or junk bonds, etc?
You are thinking of journal review, which hijacked peer review until arxiv and the internet in general rescued it.

> Like many, I was wrong about the subscription model for the news media. I thought that a possible scheme for subscriptions could be: one for national media, in the $12–20 a month range, another, less expensive ($5–$9/month) for local news, and the last one for specialized content, whether it is a business or a leisure publication.

I can't imagine how that could ever have worked. Back in the day, I mostly read stuff linked by news.google.com or in various mail lists. Now it's mainly from HN. But either way, I'd need perhaps 20-40 subscriptions. Which would be unworkable.

We really need a system that pays realistic prices (maybe $0.10 or so) per article read. Whatever you'd get by dividing cost per "issue" by number of articles available to read.
I think the market just isn't there. For people that want quality news/information and are willing to pay for it there are niche sources that already exist. But they don't have mass appeal.

For example, The Bay Citizen† was not swamped with demand.

@throwaway9283i - I think you are indeed wrong.

AFAIK if you are self-employed the gov insurance doesn't have to take you either! Yet both have to take you using that "base tariff" (600? Euro or sth) since a few years (before a self-employed could end up w/ no insurance at all, not possible anymore).

It is true that the private insurance increases significantly over the years, but it is still WAY less than the gov insurance. The costs for the gov insurance is about 25% of your salary (remember, it's split between employer and employee, but as a self-employed you have to pay both sides).
Assuming an income of just 5k per month, that would be 1.25k! per month, or more than twice the base tariff.

It often becomes problematic for self-employed low-wage workers when they enter pension. Which they often don't setup, and hence can't even pay their health insurance :-/ (and then move into social security, which again provides everything)

That it is difficult to get back to the public insurance is just non-sense unless you exceed a certain age. In fact you have to, whether you want or not, by law.
Well, there's replicating the experiment and then there's challenging the conclusion. Those are two separate ideas, and are actually fairly independent.

It’s possible the causality is backwards here.

Maybe theocracies and military dictatorships are what happens when politicians have all the money and all the power, and thusly become theocracies and military dictatorships.
There's also Andrew Kelman's renaming of PPNAS, the Prestigious Proceedings of the National Academy of Science, where Prestige is used instead of Truth.
FZ One is a really good phone for this.

Parental controls are baked into the OS network stack with a locked bootloader.
The data from the Facebook javascript integration is much richer as it lets Facebook see each customer's complete journey before purchase. This helps tremendously with ad targeting as it tells FB (for example) what other products the customer viewed before purchasing, and possibly even how they got to the site in the first place.
Consider it from a bureaucratic efficiency perspective instead then, if the rules are too broad and there are too many exemptions then the cost of gathering taxes increases. The government should aim for a simpler system that is more efficient (so that it can pass on the cost saving in having an efficient tax system on as reduced taxation if you are a neoliberal believer).

It isn't economically beneficial for people to spend vast sums on creative accountancy in order to minimise their taxation. Tax minimisation encourages investment in areas that do not promote growth or bring new products to market. Yes, there is a personal or individual corporate reward for avoiding tax but there are significant economic downsides too. Tax havens allow corruption, terrorism and organised crime to flourish giving them a way to siphon funds around which is a massive societal detriment.
Mosquitoes live in trees too unfortunately.

We had a large number of mosquitoes hanging around our back screen door (which opens into a yard, under a covered concrete area).

We had a gardener trim the trees extensively along our back fence for unrelated reasons. We took a couple of metres from the top and branches from the side. The mosquito problem went away overnight. The level of shade/cooling near the door didn't change appreciably, so I assume they were just living in the lush trees and once that went away so did they.

One thing I was looking into before that was bat boxes, since they eat mosquitoes.

Simple solution: have a panel of mixed open and anonymous reviewers, and an editorial arbiter.
This is nowhere near the level of actual content consumption. Payment models have been tried endlessly for decades and none have been successful yet in gaining any serious usage.
If you are above the border income, the private version is less expensive (I might also be wrong, checkout https://www.finanztip.de/pkv/pkv-basistarif/). It only really affects people below that income (way too many!).
It is the reverse, staying in the gov insurance costs you an awful lot of money upfront. It's the ethical but financially stupid thing.
Or maybe Molly is just Molly in this case. As in, a human friend, with whom the interviewee went to a music festival and danced. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.
The whole scientific publishing field is still stuck in previous century. We desperately need a github for science, where any reader would be a reviwer, who would be able to rate the article and comment on it, and then journals would use these ratings combined with credibility rankings of reviewers to create indexes of interesting new article-repositories.
I think that only request methods that can use a request body can use a request body. (However, it is only private use, then might not matter.)

One alternative way is to use a different protocol rather than HTTP, if that is applicable for your use. Another way is to make up a new LONG_GET method.
Nonsense. Only the editorial board can approve you to publish in the journal or comference. Approximately anyone on Arxiv can approve to you to publish on Arxiv.

I think the "only" real change is that he will need a work visa, the other aspects should remain the same. A EU citizen can freely choose his workplace in the EU (which is a reason why the British voted exit, they specifically didn't want that).
Why tax something that provides only positive value without using local ressources.
That was how I was as well until I got tasked with making feature rich text inputs (decorate hashtags, user tags, replace names with emails, vice versa). At a certain point it gets too difficult to respond to user input as it is just too variable (user highlights 40 chars and presses ‘A’? user pastes 100 chars?). A bulletproof method is running find and replace when needed and the ideal way to do that is regex.

Forcing myself to get tough regex working is what really made me grasp some of the more advanced concepts that unlock regex. It’s mainly just that we never need regex, and if you use it for a simple task you’re a jerk for introducing unnecessary complexity. Why would people learn it?

The Only Way to Win Is Not to Play the Game
Where’s the evidence to suggest repatriating these huge sums of money will be used to improve society?

Where’s the evidence to suggest the money would be used to build public transport, improve the education system, reduce poverty, build more public / affordable housing?

The preponderance of evidence suggests any and all of these things would be poorly managed, massively over budget, and approximately a decade behind schedule.
I've tried a bunch of options but always come back to the Apple Magic Keyboard (the wireless one without a numpad).
I do.

I don't see the reason why tracking and data collection should be opt-out.

If you do not like the idea that you own your data, not companies then you can give your consent to process data to everybody.
I've had that (the gaslighting) happen to me so many times.

"You didn't do this assignment"

"Er, yes I did, here it is"

"Well, you didn't keep me up-to-date on it"

"Er, here are my weekly status report e-mails"

"But you know I don't read my e-mails"

Huh?

Another good one was the following: I had assigned one of my reports a task before going on vacation. During said vacation, my "manager" pulls said report from that task. Then afterwards dings me for that task not being completed.

Huh?

"We're not paying you your bonus"

"Why?"

"You have to know that yourself".

"I do not, and no, that's not how this works"

"I won't tell you"

Fortunately that was in Germany, so not just crazy, but also illegal.
Very interesting read. The article has a dead link to something Anton LaVey wrote called "NOT ALL VAMPIRES SUCK BLOOD!". I'm not a Santanist and had never read it before, but it's pretty spot on.

To be absolutely fair, being all into drugs myself - if someone actually used a phrase “I danced at a festival with my friend molly”, I would absolutely never want to spend my time with them again.

That literally is the trashiest thing you can ever say.
ActiBliz is "small" compared to companies like Verizon and comcast etc.. but dont be under the delusion that they dont have capital to make things happen, they're one of the big 3 western game companies (I would say the other two are probably EA and Take Two Int.) with the biggest MMO still alive and kicking (along with other well selling IPs). This industry isnt incapable of touching legislation, one of the biggest thing in the industry right now is EA's legal conquest of keeping lootboxes (or "surprise mechanics" as they call it) in games legal.
Presumably, the interviewers interpreted it to mean the drug. But another potential interpretation is that she's gay and laughed because she was uncomfortable with the left-handed admission to her sexual orientation. Perhaps she was testing the waters to see how people would react to news that she went dancing with a woman.*

Perhaps it was a wild misunderstanding or perhaps not. I'm sure we would all rather think it's a drug policy, but the reality is that the LGBTQ crowd faces discrimination severe enough that they are at increased risk of homelessness compared to the general population.

* Edit: Or perhaps she didn't really think about what she saying, then realized after the fact that she just admitted in a job interview to a same sex date, then laughed uncomfortably.
The biggest problem I have with kudzu is the thought of copperheads and rattle snakes hiding in them. Used to scare me to death as a kid.
But if we make more companies at high valuations fast enough, foreign demand for dollars to buy into these companies will force the central bank to keep pushing the yield curve down in the process of creating more dollars to meet demand!

"Molly" is another name for ecstasy/MDMA.
I've never understood how you could create a company that operates on the economies of scale by faking the scale part with VC. That seems like an expensive and high speed runway that has tons of risk for failure.

I presume the private equity industry has proven (repeatedly) what you can accomplish with plenty of Wall St capital and confidence alone, regardless of traditional business strategy. Now VCs want to do the same, but almost inverted.

The big question is why can't we just transition from actual operational cleaning/maid companies today, combining the old business + technology, until it goes into a 100% technology based market?

It seems Uber's business model is that the entire taxi industry missed the boat on using smartphones. Many city's taxi companies already had mostly contractors via 'broker' arrangements where drivers own the cars and the taxi companies do the phones/marketing (which most people don't know). I'm sure many of Homejoy's cleaners were independent or semi-independent already too, where it was a gig economy already, just not an efficient one.

So most of the innovation was just the technology part, so why not underpin the new businesses with some actual scale by buying up some traditional market businesses? I understand why old entrenched industries completely fail to adapt, especially those protected by regulatory agencies and city governments. I guess it doesn't make much sense to buy those companies with so much baggage included - or expect the innovation to come from within.

So we're only left with the option of x entrenched market + y technology market, until x doesn't exist anymore. Not some transition between x->y.
Companies stated culture != it's actual culture.

The employees of any organization develop culture in how they interact (this is the real org culture), but some organizations also try and steer towards the culture they consider 'ideal' (the false culture you allude to). This attempt is often ham-fisted, and often fails.
Sounds like you dodged a bullet.

Did you end up working at another Fashion-Tech company? I'm curious how much of this is characteristic of Fashion-Tech industry in general.
Things that make software engineers rich
While it is a bit dated in terms of the 'types' of applications it is still quite relevant in terms of understanding "web 2.0[1]" distributed system reliability versus other systems.

One of the coolest things Greg Lindhal built at Blekko was a system that processed the error logs of every single system in the cluster all at the same time. It then reduced by string matching error messages that varied only by their variables into a single error (so 'error reading sector 10 on disk sda3' and 'error reading sector 20 on disk sde2' would reduce to 'error reading sector X on disk Y' x={...}, y={...}') really fun stuff. And you could easily pull out of that errors in the software (happens on many nodes) errors in hardware (happens on unrelated nodes) and errors in infrastructure (happens on nodes correlated by a switch or PDU or Rack)

[1] Distributed systems made of many many identical nodes both from a software and hardware perspective, managed by an orchestration service with software that assumes unreliable platforms.

Reading your comment made me think: Wow Germany must be like the US! Who knew!

But then I read the article and was super or even mega surprised to see that Switzerland, Sweden, France, and even Canada, they all overcome Germany based on this measure (Guns per 100 people). Something tells me that maybe you should not be concerned about the position your country has on that list ...

I was really surprised by Switzerland being the #2 on this list. Maybe it is indeed due to hunting habits the country has? I wonder how similar their gun thinking is to the US gun thinking.
This is good news. I used to get DSL and one day, after they subtly forced me to upgrade to a higher speed / more expensive service without telling me, I discovered I was actually getting less than a fifth of the bandwidth I was supposed to get with the original lesser service.

I complained, and they told me it was because my demarc was too far from my house. So why did they "upgrade" my service if in fact, I was getting such slow service to begin with? They obviously knew I couldn't get the bandwidth I was paying for. And the super-slow bandwidth I was actually getting was something they offered for half the price I was paying, so it's not like they couldn't have just pushed me to the "lesser" service instead of the more expensive one.

They literally "upgraded" me beyond capacity, even when the original service was already beyond capacity. Really shady.

I quit using them, needless to say. But there was nothing I could do really to challenge them about ripping me off so blatantly. And surely they do this with their customers across the board. I live in a highly populated area of a mega city, so this demarc excuse was a flimsy scapegoat if ever there was one.

Never thought I'd cheer on the FCC. Time for the entire industry to catch up now.
Is this a joke? Please get some friends. I guarantee there are people out there interesting enough to fit the bill. Also you can have a phone without a plan and still use 911 services.
