> text form as being completely subordinate and subsumed by its audiobook version

Close to this, an other angle is to see the text version as source, and the audiobook as a representation.

The source having more information, or allowing for more representation has a real value. The same way raw files/original film in photography have a different value from a print.

To go on with the analogy, historically we pay for photographic prints and rarely for the raw file (or the raw file would cost more than individual prints). And there is the same debate, when a photographer shoots a wedding and the couple didn't negotiate the raw files, they can be surprised they don't get them by default, even when paying for the print.

I think in general the source/original material should be included in the sale of the representation, and the whole priced accordingly, but I get that it's not how the publishers see it, or how some customer would bargain to get only the cheapest part, and that behaviour becoming the least common denominator.
Yes I don’t understand your point entirely. And I asked you to explain further.

Who would be doing the fingerprinting in that parent post situation? I know very little about fingerprinting. If you're blocking scripting and cookies from most (or maybe all in parent's case?) third parties, are they still able to fingerprint you? If yes, how do they do that?

Or would it be the first-party fingerprinting you and sharing that with their third-parties?

It’s not bad as far as operational definitions go. Operational definitions are intended to be refined over time and to be used as a starting point, not necessarily an ending point. Qualifying the types of behaviors might have been too restrictive of a definition for their study.

For example, if it read “engages in unethical behavior that is harmful”, you then need an operational definition of either ethical or unethical behaviors. It’d be an understatement to call that a difficult thing to define.

Maybe there’s some way they could have incorporated intentionality into the operational definition, but I suspect that it would introduce some gaps as a model of reality.

I’d argue that an intentional pattern of creating bugs would be the toxic thing whereas a pattern of accidentally creating bugs would be incompetence. Isolated or routine cases of bugs being introduced would be the normal course of software implementation.

Business processes and development techniques would be the organizational defense against the introduction of bugs and would probably be the source of the dividing line between when a worker toxically creates bugs and when not toxic.

Sorry but that makes no sense to me. I didn't upload a video with a sound track. I added the sound track with YouTube's tool.

The track I used is from YouTube's library. YouTube knows it because I used it. There should be no confusion about who the performer is and nobody should be able to claim the video.
> It makes me wonder what's really behind the suit.

I think there are a few things at play. The publishers were commoditize on the ebook switch. They are also facing more and more pressure as people question things like 'check outs' in an ebook world. Audiobooks are a growth area, and in very high demand. The publishers learned from the ebook shift, and now will go after anything that could possibly infringe.
Price is a factor too. Access to the online version of arguably the best Dutch dictionary costs 75 euro's a year. The print version costs 180 euro's and lasts you a lifetime. Granted, you don't have the monthly updates they claim to do, but I personally hardly look up modern words so that adds little value for me.

For the convenience of a quick search interface I would be willing to buy an online version for a euro per month. For that price, the publisher would have earned more money from me than he has until now, since my print version is over thirty years old (and still going strong).
Nothing about open source prohibits professional support. Indeed, a lot of companies make money providing professional support of Open Source software. If you want paid support for OSS, then go look for it... you will often find it.

Not really, just like it's not worth it having any power supply embedded into a power outlet. It's also a bit dangerous, it can malfunction and burn your place to the ground without triggering circuit breakers. Also USB-C power in particular is pretty inefficient by design, as having say a 150 watt power supply to efficiently deliver 5 watts of power is rather complex and expensive to achieve.
Sure, that's exactly what I'm saying. Second level effects are guessing, so you should assume by default that spending more means using more stuff means damaging the environment more. Very often people say "it's complex" to evade the simple obvious conclusion because that conclusion is unacceptable.
Gas is cheaper in Netherland too. Many people are still switching to induction, because it's possible, convenient and we need to get rid of gas.
To be clear, there was no "privileged default", the "default" was that everyone counted. The 3/5 compromise was forced on the slave states to reduce their power from the default. It was not an "inducement", they were forced into it.

If there's any heightened danger due to the voltage, I'm pretty sure that it is offset by the safer design of the plugs themselves. European plugs fit much more snugly into their sockets and require noticeable force to insert and remove, and their pins are much harder to bend out of alignment than North American plugs. Plugs falling or sliding out of their sockets are virtually unheard of with a standard combination of European plug and socket, but it seems to be a common occurrence with North American plugs.

Not every household gets 3 phases. When we bought our current house, we were surprised to discover we only got 1 * 35A, instead of the more common 3 * 25A. And having only one phase was a problem, considering we wanted an induction stove.
When it comes to black holes, no one is a physicist.

The problems appear when you try to apply GR and the rest of classical physics - which all assume spacetime is continuous and analytically smooth - to a situation it can't handle.

It's a good tool for normal spacetime, it's fine for making predictions all the way up to an event horizon, but it's absolutely unable to say anything useful about what happens at an event horizon - never mind beyond one.

Because the question isn't "What happens to an astronaut or a chair at the event horizon?" It's "What happens to wave equations and quantum fields at the event horizon?"

If all information is lost at the the event horizon, quantum theory stops working in a catastrophic way. There are no fields, no particles, no interactions, possibly not even raw spacetime.

If it isn't lost, then something else happens, but no one is sure what it is yet.

Hawking's theory works on the basis that some relationships persists across the horizon - actually they stretch back to the formation of the black hole - but he seems to have assumed that it's possible to ignore the limits set by the Planck length/time. There are good reasons for thinking this is unlikely to be true.

Without a theory of quantum gravity - or rather of quantum spacetime - this is all guesswork. It isn't even possible to prove the No Hair Conjecture.

So although it's currently assumed that mass, angular momentum, and charge are conserved (and therefore not all information is lost), there's no proof for this, and no explanation why these features would be conserved while others aren't.
Possibly dumb questions:

1. How long would the batteries last on the Tesla?

2. Do they need to be serviced more often if you live in colder climates?

3. Wouldn't battery health affect resale value??

USB C cables are extremely expensive compared to Cat6 there’s no comparison. 802.3af can run 48v for 100m I doubt USB C can run that far. Power delivery is a non-issue most devices can handle POE just fine and I have 3 Cameras, 2 APs, a switch, and a Pi all running off a single 150w UniFi switch.

If you need more power you can always build another regular outlet much cheaper than setting up USB C.
Induction can be way faster than gas.

> Germany's middle-class relatively speaking to many other countries is still fairly intact which is reflected in the low priority that class issues or employment has in German politics.

Employment is pretty much one of the main topics of German politics. High employment needs to be presented even if those employed can't even live from that income. While the low-income issue has been ignored with "Be glad you got at least some work!". As German culture is very quick and harsh to shame people for not working a job. Which has been one of the factors the AfD played on:

Many low and mid-income Germans feel like they've been missing out, the German right has pitted that feeling against the arriving refugees in a "We don't have money for German pensioners [0], but we do for Syrian economic migrants?!" way.

As such I never declared the German model as dead, I was merely pointing out that it ain't as perfect as many people from the outside often perceive it to be. There's a whole lot of shining up the numbers going on, not just in terms of "who counts as unemployed", but even with "who counts as poor/low income". [1]

> It feels as if you not only need to know the language itself but also how the particular version of the compiler you are using has decided to interpret the language and apply optimizations - essentially having to know how the magic trick is performed.

That's also true with C/C++, isn't it? Optimizations should be different if you compile a C program with GCC or CLANG, or even with GCC x or y versions (but I'm not a compiled language programmer, I could be wrong)
Agreed, on the surface (and given current legislation/IP legal climate).

One thing that may also come into play - what about accessibility and the Americans with Disabilities Act? In this age of "slippery slopes be damned," I wouldn't necessarily be surprised to see someone file suit alleging that these sort of licenses - that limit scope only to audio - as a whole are infringing upon their rights under the ADA.

(Whether it would stand up or not is another question - anyone can file suit for anything, but there's no guarantee of a win. But it seems to me that Amazon might have a good defense here, just based on that idea.)
> the treatments tested were from 30 days to 12 weeks - hardly what I would consider 'long term therapy' that's currently advocated/practiced by LLMDs

ahh! there is something here. I't subtle but I think it's a really important process you've described:

Conventional medical experts took the anecdotes and lyme theories, and decided to test "long term" therapy that was being advocated by less-conventional but still well-meaning providers at the time. These were the results: they showed there was no benefit.

So conventional thinking moved on, and the now-fringe thinkers simply moved the goalposts. Any scientist is going to be open-minded about the possibility of something being effective, even if they don't understand it. But at this point there are far better places (meaning "likely to show efficacy") to invest research resources.

And the question we're all asking ourselves is: if the alt-medicine community is so convinced that there is a benefit, why on earth won't they perform a randomized, placebo-controlled, clinical trial. We already did several, and published them. If the alt-lyme community still wants to continue making claims and expect to be listened to, they are going to need evidence.

That seems like it should be uncontroversial to me, but here we are.
Your question is a reasonable one, but you're misunderstanding the bigger picture. The bigger picture is that you are offered something specific for a specified price. You can accept the deal, reject it, or make a counter offer.

What you can't do is declare that your payment means that you actually bought the rights to the text of the book or anything else you unilaterally and post facto include in the purchase for philosophical reasons, when those things weren't included in the offer that you accepted. What was offered, and you accepted, was a license to unlimited personal listening to an audio performance. If you want something else, make an offer or wait for them to make one.

It's not quite as simple as this because governments often want to get into the deal and declare that certain offers aren't what the offerer offers but what the lawmakers think he should have offered, but absent this intercession, you were offered an audio performance for a certain price, and if you accepted, that's what you got.

Same here, and in fact in countries that have some sort of access to gas. It's the same reason heating is usually done with gas rather than electricity.

So this is not the reason why the US has less induction stoves. In fact, cooking isn't a big expenditure on your energy bill. Heating is, and yet plenty of homes have central (gas) heating yet still have an induction stove. Simply because it's possible and convenient.

If the US indeed has less induction stoves than the EU, the fact that it would be less convenient due to the electrical wiring of American homes is a more likely explanation than gas prices.

Based on the data here, the grandparent is wrong. Maybe they were historically correct, but today the three middle quintiles of economic class is over-represented https://www.cfr.org/article/demographics-us-military (Look for the graph titled "Neighborhood affluence for 2016 recruits")
Countries that have historically relied on gas or other such power sources for heating and stoves most likely have single phase for homes. You're more likely to get three phase in countries where electrical stoves, ovens, and even house heating are more common (Germany being the most obvious example).
In EU most new ovens are 240V, partially thanks to the efficiency improvements of hot air ovens.

Still, they used to be 3-phase not long ago so OP is also correct.
