MAGA is used by the majority as a show of support for the president, their party, and general conservative beliefs along with American pride. You refuse to believe those people, and yet believe any extremist who claims MAGA. Why?

If you have such dogmatic views and think half the country is "campaigning on hate" then unfortunately there's no rational debate to be had here. By the way, CNN had the leader of the white nationalists on prime time. By your own definition, CNN is now a white nationalist channel. Do you disagree?

Case law strongly disagrees with you on this point.

Most relevant to this case is the merger doctrine. Ideas that can be expressed in only a small number of ways are not copyrightable.

Even more on point to your comment is the concept of copyright misuse. If you try to use your copyright (a government granted temporary monopoly on the reproduction of your work) to gain monopolies on other things you can not only lose the infringement case but in extreme cases even lose the copyright entirely.

The key-word here is ultra-rich. See: https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-soi/soi-a-ints-id1801.pdf. Average tax rate goes up with income up to the top 0.1% ($2.4 million+). It starts dropping at the top 0.01% ($11 million+). But at that point you're talking about just 5% of total income. Tax those people an extra 10 points more, and you get maybe another $50 billion. But if you taxed the top 50% an average rate of 21% (the same as the top 10%), you'd raise $500 billion more.

We love to complain about billionaires and hedge fund managers, but 80% of the income in this country accrues to a group of people that has entry-level college graduates at one end and top Google engineers at the other end.

How am I only hearing about this now? Looks intriguing
Matt's feedback was correct. There's nothing you need to do for your site.
I appreciate the clarification!
I agree that it's ridiculous to drag a kid through the legal system for 18 months. Ideally, criminal cases involving minors (and individuals in general) need to be fast-tracked, and there should be a strict limit (measured in weeks, not months) on how long prosecutors can take to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that somebody committed a crime. If they can't prove it before the timeout, the defendant goes free. This should also reduce the incentive to stack one frivolous charge upon another for psychological effect. Aaron Swartz committed suicide just over two years after he was first arrested. He never faced an actual trial during those two years, only an endless series of indictments with minor changes.

But as I said, this is a double-edged sword. People need time to collect evidence and arrange witness testimonies, so insisting on a quick resolution could create bias in favor of those who can pay for a lot of lawyer-hours up front.
"It sounds like to get the data into their AI, Google had to make copies"

It seems to me that "copy" is a legal term of art. Like, if I view a website, it might say I'm not allowed to copy the information. But depending on the level of abstraction, the data has been copied many times by many entities just to get to me, all the layers of machines, caches, retransmissions, etc. and exactly what I do with the normal functions of my browser cause more copies to be made.

Either this is not considered copying or it is considered fair use, but it seems pretty arbitrary to me, except that obviously considering it infringement would not advance the constitutional purpose of IP protections.
I think the unclear part about this theory is the case where your customer acquisition cost is partly a customer retention cost. As long as you're sure that's not the case, go ahead.

> Anything that is written down, recorded or filmed automatically receives copyright protection.

This is factually untrue. Many things written down, recorded, and filmed do not receive copyright protection in the united states. A common example is recipes.

There is extremely good reason to think that APIs specifically fall into the set of things that can not be copyrighted. That's what the original ruling in this case was (overturned on appeal by the federal circuit). That's what a good portion of Google's brief argues.

Does the work become public domain or government royalty subject in that case? If the latter, it is worse since the government cannot be sued for copyright misuse, either.

SWE isn't a BLS tracked occupation, it's a title which loosely corresponds to a higher paid segment within the Software Developer occupation; the median salary for Software Developers is $105,590, with a Bachelor's degree identified as BLS as the entry-level education.

There is no healthcare profession with the same or higher median salary that doesn't have at least as Master's degree as the entry-level education, and all healthcare occupations except Physician Assistants and Nurse Anesthetists/Midwives/Practitioners with the same or higher median salary actually have a doctoral or professional degree as the entry-level education.

There are no occupations in Business & Finance with equivalent or higher median pay. (Personal Financial Advisors, at $88,890, are the highest in that area.)

There are some engineering occupation with higher median pay, but only Aerospace, Computer Hardware, and Petroleum Engineers (Chemical gets close, at $104,910.)

So, no, there aren't lots of occupations in those three areas paid, on average, better than SWEs (or Software Developers).

There are a bunch of management occupations with higher pay, though, ironically enough, “Top Executives” is just a bit below Software Developers.

answer - https://math.stackexchange.com/a/3437700/725808

The question displays a lack of understanding of language, especially the relation between a word and its meaning. More specifically, the relation between a noun and its pronoun.

Suppose Question 1 was:

> "What day is it today?"

And suppose Question 2 was:

> "Which answer in this list is the correct answer to this question?
> Friday, Saturday, Sunday"

If someone asks, 'What question is the pronoun "this" in Question 2 referring to?'

Then you can reply - 'Question 1'

And then they can proceed to answer Question 2 as 'Saturday'

Suppose I just ask you out of the blue : 'what's his height?'

You will immediately respond : 'who are you talking about?'

A pronoun must come AFTER a noun has been established. If it comes before, the speaker must clarify the noun after.

In other words, you must be able to do a Ctrl-H Find & Replace in the original sentence, and change "this" to whatever it's referring to, and the new sentence should still make sense. That is the point of pronouns.

If I ask 'what is the weather in this city?'

Does that question make sense without mentioning the city's name either before or after? It might make sense grammatically, but practically, it is not answerable.

If you now come back and say - Just replace the pronoun "this" with the text of the question, then it becomes :

"Which answer in this list is the correct answer to "Which answer in this list is the correct answer to this question" question?

Is the question answerable now ? Still NO.
Because there is still one unresolved "this".
Ad-infinitum.

So, to answer your question:

> 'which question ?'

The question, as is, is not answerable. Because it does not make sense until you resolve what 'this' refers to. Until then, it is just a bunch of words without a corresponding meaning. It's not a paradox or a contradiction.
Barber's 'paradox', 'This sentence is false' etc. all are basically just a poor understanding of language/pronouns.

You might as well ask :

> 'Which answer in this list is the correct answer to oogabooga question?'

Just because you can do $PROFESSION doesn't make you above average in intelligence. Period. Full stop. To think any other way (and for somebody to post a link to some BS article supporting their assertion) is completely absolutely 100% arrogant BS. Get off your high horse people.

To be a little more specific, the federal tax system relies on people who make very roughly around $200-$500K/year, because those making less have their numbers outweighed by their lack of income, and those making more have their income outweighed by their lack of numbers.

The thing about the WSJ graphic that everybody made fun of:
https://franklycurious.com/wp/2013/01/16/pity-the-rich/

...is that whatever people in that income range are really like, and however little sympathy they deserve, they are the golden goose that provides the lion's share of revenue for the government, so politically, there always has to be a game of chicken when tax increases are discussed. That's where the money is, so how much can be taken without harm to the economy?

I would bet that expropriating billionaires would have surprisingly little effect, but most of the people who would like to do it think six figures is rich too.
Facebook could easily be told to shed Instagram, WhatsApp and everything else they bought up to dominate the social network space. Individually those companies might not survive, but they could spin them off, as a whole, if the FTC tired to step in.

Google could be asked to do the same with some of their product lines/companies.

It's very unlikely though. These companies have a lot of influence and a lot of power .. and when was the last time the Federal government broke up a company over antitrust violations? It didn't happen with Microsoft .. and for examples of really big monopolies, you'd probably have to go back to the Bell/ATT days.
that's a good point. if only the CLI had the consistency of a real programming language. even PHP for all its flaws is more consistent than the commandline.

"As part of my University of York Archaeology PhD thesis, I conducted a case study into what is now called the “Legacy Hub ”. The goals of the project were not only to determine if (and how) archaeology could be conducted on human settlements within a digital environment, but also delved into 3D-printing human-made architecture, creating a new kind of map, undertaking photogrammetry of sites past and present, recording epigraphic evidence, and working hand-in-glove with the Hub’s leadership, which included an ambassador for the community’s heritage.

I don't know what the status is on the S5 Active in particular, but the S5 is/was one of the most highly used and well developed of all Cyanogen/LineageOS phones. All the rest of the Samsung phones after the S5 had locked down bootloaders and other crap, but the S5 has incredible support. You should definitely go find out what the status is on it. The S5 Active probably has some minor differences that requires a specific image version but I don't know.
