I tend to agree with you, but availability of the text of the statutes is not at issue in the case here. In all of the opinions, every justice agrees that the text of the laws should be freely available, and not one of them raised any issue with the fact that the text of the statutes is made available through an agent, rather than directly by the state.

It is difficult to make an argument from a negative, but it is interesting to note that no one seems to care that Lexis distributes the text.

Also, if you go to Georgia's legislative web site and click on the link for "Georgia Code"[0], this takes you directly to Lexis Nexis. This seems as official as anything you'll find. The fact that a government contracts a third party to provide a service does not imply that that government is failing to provide said service.

As an analog, if I am a landlord, I am required to maintain any premises I let in a state that is fit for humans to live in. Whether I hire third party contractors to do the work to maintain these conditions or do the work myself, I am discharging my duties as landlord. No one would ever complain that I hired a plumber rather than fixed a toilet myself (assuming that the work is of the same quality).

[0] left-side nav bar, under "Legislation" heading, second from the bottom of its section.

Edit: I'll note that the arrangement as laid out in the syllabus of the Supreme Court decision reads differently than that in the Ars article. The syllabus clearly states that the annotations are produced as a work for hire by a division of Lexis for the Georgia Assembly in a contract managed through the Code Revision Commission (a committee of the Georgia legislature). The copyright vests in the state of Georgia. The Ars article implies (based on my reading) that the copyright belongs to Lexis. These two readings provide very different starting points.

Separately, the Ars article raises FUD about the copy of the statutes hosted on the Lexis website, but the state of Georgia clearly links to this as the code. Lexis, as a third party without the ability to make law (and as an organization of lawyers) has some hedges it probably has to make when posting legal documents. Georgia claims this is the official text of the statutes. I'll defer to Georgia on this matter and accept the Lexis text as canonical.
Certain strange platforms (arm64_32 for Apple Watch) run ILP32 on AArch64.
These two national policies aren't equally difficult: India extends across about 29° of longitude, while China extends across about 61°. The natural size of a time zone is 15° of longitude, so without political considerations India would include about 2-3 time zones, while China would include about 4-5.

I've heard there's some pushback against the Chinese policy in that some people in the west keep an unofficial local time which is widely understood and quoted (though presumably not for things that are sufficiently official or relevant to other regions). Apparently there's currently an ethnic conflict over the time zone status in Xinjiang:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xinjiang_Time

Maybe this conflict has now been pushed underground by force?

> In 2018, according to Human Rights Watch, a Uyghur man was arrested and sent to a detention center because he set his watch to Xinjiang Time.
A human impersonator, clearly labelled as such, probably wouldn't have received the same treatment. These videos were simply computer-assisted impersonations.
She is using a "planter". That is a quite expensive and complicated machine. It's used for crops that have expensive seeds or very precise planting requirements. Corn seed is expensive and a significant cost of growing the crop. So, you want to make the best use of the seed. A planter will meter out seeds one at a time and place them a fixed distance apart in the seed rows. Seed depth is also carefully controlled. Corn will yield better if plants are optimally spaced in the row. Less sophisticated seeding equipment (e.g. air drill, air seeder) will randomly space out seeds in the row. For lower cost seeds like wheat, that's typically good enough and it is a simpler machine.

Another difference is that planters typically have wider row spacings. For corn, that's not a problem because the plants want more space. However, for cereal crops like wheat, ideally the spacing should be smaller. Typically spacing for wheat might be 8 to 10 inches but even narrower might give optimal yield. To get narrow spacing, you need more seed rows and those get expensive given the complexity of the planter system (high cost per seed row).

In area she is farming, corn and soybeans are the major crops. There are a bunch of other field crops they might grow. Wheat is one but there are many others.

Confirmed cases are not the total number of cases.
Yeah, thats roughly the idea. We can evolve the current DHT into something coral-like, or if something better comes along, we will use that.
Yeah this is a big problem.
The idea that it's supposed to promote something of a trance is right in the name of the whole trance genre.
I agree with pc86 on the ethical issues.

On the pragmatic ones:

- If the lawsuits ever become unbearable we can always choose to simply stop existing. One beautiful part of LBRY is that it does not depend on the company to work.

- It's not so much that we want to be thought of as the deep fake place, so much as we want to be thought of as a place for people who want to make their own choices. I think supporting this supports that goal.
Another point is that while we technologists love to marvel at data science and machine learning, it still begs the question of what value does it bring to the business. Does the added responsibility of creating all the infrastructure and processes worth it to justify a 5% increase in conversion rates? As you say, even the dirty work has a cost and whether that cost is worth paying to find out that there's nothing you can do to improve the business. That's why all the massive multi-year central data warehouse cleansing type projects keep failing without yielding much value. There's just a lack of focus on delivering incremental value with these data projects.
I hear injecting them with bleach helps too
I there a good argument it's not profitable, but this should be seen like going to the moon.

I personally don't can about 'alternative' energy, but a lot of people do, and getting tech that permanently runs hundreds of meters of even kilometres in the atmosphere will open up a lot of possibilities.

We need to stop thinking of the Earth in 2D and these projects help.

For once lets use the fact people want to invest in 'alternative' energy on something exciting.

There is are so many theoretical things you can do with platforms kilometres in the air.
Unless the homeschooling parents went out of their way to isolate their child, it seems like the amount of interaction with people of various ethnicities, social strata, etc. is going to depend more on the community than whether a child is homeschooled. There are plenty of public schools with very little diversity.
I completely disagree with most of what the doctors in the video are saying. However I really really don't like YouTube removing content like this.
I disagree based on my school at home experience with 2nd and 4th graders.

IMO the two big issues are teachers who have difficulty with the online model and more importantly parents or caregivers who cannot control their kids.

We’re lucky in that our teachers get it and are doing a college like schedule with weekly assignments and three days with 2 one hour live sessions with two days of office hours and recorded sessions.
My understanding has always been that good science is supposed to be falsifiable. If the new rules are science can only be dictated by authoritative institutions and cannot be publicly questioned, is it still science?
I ran an AWS practice for a large hosting company for two years. We had a number of situations where our prospect would say "annual spend with your managed services and our expected AWS bill would be $1M. Google is offering us a 2 million dollar credit to choose their cloud. What do you say to that?"

"You should take them up on that offer."

The incentives available from other cloud providers are MASSIVE if your business has the chance to grow in coming years. They will literally buy your business for years on the bet that at some point they will make it back.
Doesn’t really change the ethics of it.
Rust can handle the same thing though the typical model now is using async-await and scheduling tasks on a threadpool. While I won't say its conceptually as simple as go can be, Rust also has channels, mutexes, and other concurrency primitives that allow you to create a similar story. It will also end up being more performant and less work to make correct (typically) due to its small runtime and extensive compile-time checking.
This is incorrect. Apple doesn't buy chips from Samsung or TSMC. Apple orders the chips to be manufactured by them. The chip design is made by Apple on their own.

Buying a chip from someone (i.e., purchasing rights to use an existing chip design made by someone) vs. ordering your own chip to be manufactured by someone are two different things.

It's like, we don't say that Apple just bought phones from Foxconn, they simply acted as a manufacturer.
School can indeed teach those other skills. But mostly only by mistake and much more it does the opposite.

Because in fact I learned bullying in (high) school. How to be bullied and how to bully others. (I actually remember being given a informal class about how to to it properly, by other pupils) There were allways at least on person in class who was the bottom of the social order, who would get everything. But everybody got its share, who showed any weakness or lack of "coolness" which could mean anything at that time, like not smoking.

And I know many people who never sing anymore, because they have been traumatized in the school singing presentation. Likewise with other presentations. I could always sing without problem, as I learned singing from my mother, but others whose parents did not sing with them, were always scared of the singing and embarrasing themself in front of everyone, but accepted that as a 2 times a year ritual and just reinforced their trauma every time.

But in compensation I got a trauma with presentation. I don't know exactly how it started, but probably with a teacher who liked to destroy childrens self confidence, if they were not perfectly prepared for the boring assignment and a class who was either sleeping or annoying. Got me a stuttering habit, too.

Today I can give presentations, but I had a really hard time learning it later in life.

So I am not sure what I will do, once my baby gets old enough, as I am located in germany and germany does not like homeschooling and I also would want other homeschoolers to be around, because I also think, that learning in small groups mostly beats learning alone or one on one.
Thank you!

One more question please - does this tool support naming of global variables? The official wasm documented 'name' section only supports local variable names I think?
Is CBC known to question the position of Canadian government, especially the majority opinion there? They are a state-owned entity, as far as I know, but I'm not Canadian so I know little about how independently they operate.
Thank you sergio! lbry.tech is the best resource to learn about what LBRY is from a technical perspective.
True honest belief backed by data that is hard to disprove.
We have a million cases and 55k deaths even with shutdowns. Is it that hard to figure out the rest?
> It's just a crap shoot, unless you know exactly what you're already looking for.

Even if you do, inventory co-mingling means that sometimes the seller you think is the seller isn't even the seller!
We totally do. We still have 40% of kids not proficient at grade level, every year. This is despite tons of research into how to teach reading but schools refuse to do it. I mean some are now but it's been at a glacial pace. We have tons of academic research that is not being applied.
I do not know how fast it is going, but I also don't think this Mick guy can tell from the video either. We can't tell from the video because it does not have the required information for either me or Mick to make a determination. The pilots who took the video are very sure its going fast and I think they are correct. They had the extra sensory info to make that determination and I will side with them over what Mick or I can determine by looking at the video. I'm really surprised I have to say that on a board like this which is supposed to cater to intelligent professionals, but apparently I have to. There is no appeal to authority here, I am pointing out that the people who took the video obviously had information available to them that made them say it was moving and fast, plus they are trained to make precisely that determination. I mean, go believe the ex-dev who makes videos for a living if you want, I'm sticking with the pilots.
Best Buy is actually pretty amazing. Their protection plan is a great deal too because it basically lets you pay a premium to return your item for a full refund in store credit for 2 years.
Thanks! Yes, it's exactly like Jai, but as your said it is not public yet. I started experimenting with this idea before I found out about Jai. Watched a few of Jonathan's streams and YouTube videos, the language is promising, but some things in that language discourage me from using it even though I don't have a full picture of his language.
Totally agree with you. This is an issue for most open membership p2p networks. Effectively, you need to create some type of reputation system or barrier to accruing power to make it harder for attackers to DOS/manipulate the network than for well-behaving nodes to operate it. IPFS definitely thinks about resistance to a variety of attacks like the ones you describe - but we still have a ways to go. Next steps might look like improvements to the DHT, or other more selective content routing solutions (ex, expanding on our dht-client vs dht-server designation to make content routers more selective/reputation-based).

Check out our most recent research discussion for some thoughts about how we might scale up Sybil resistance in p2p networks: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L4SJzoKHKPk
You're absolutely correct about the info both of your friends shared.

I know because I was a Banjo employee myself (3+ years), before Damien step foot in Utah (during a company party, he told us while casually chatting that he gave his wife a budget of $3m to find a new house - they lived in Vegas at the time).

During my time there, Banjo was building a team in Vegas, NV and Redwood City, CA.

He is a workaholic. This would not be a problem, if he did not identify with Banjo (literally) and expect everyone else to work on his schedule (most weekends included, since he has no life).

If you are a high performer and take pride in your work, be sure that you'll be asked to put your life on hold, work weekends (a lot of weekends), and work toward the "greater good": Saving lives and reducing human suffering - what a joke! I wish I can say that during my tenure there we actually saved lives. But that would be a lie. A lie that everyone I worked with knows too well.

I've read several of his statements that the "life saving" technology was born in Utah.
This is not true. We worked on the algorithms long before, and we did not remove users info for a long time. Only after the Facebook–Cambridge Analytica data scandal emerged in 2018, he mandated the engineers to remove all user identifiable information before posting it on our platform.
At-home schooling, when you weren't prepared and cannot provide the time, is not at-home schooling.

The educators were caught off-guard. The parents were caught off-guard.

Let's not make decisions about what method works and doesn't work. These are unprecedented times. Just make sure your child reads about topics they enjoy, and do activities they enjoy.

Reading and Writing are the most important skills. This is for a short period of time anyways. Relax, you only need an hour or 2 a day. Ensure your child is happy and healthy. Those are the most important measurements.

All the best.
Platform Experience Teams
We are a company with both App and web presence, we have two teams which run these - disjointed, however, there are certain aspects that both share like user analytics, rum analytics, developer experience, and processes - we are thinking of bringing these common under a unified platform team. Not sure if there are teams who have done this and what are your experiences at tech and org level etc etc etc.
>There are no ethical issues in deepfake videos that weren't existent during the same infantile stages of faked and Photoshopped images on the internet

That is not the same thing as "there are no ethical issues". I'm sure some people, especially the celebrities portrayed, would feel there are the same ethical issues in all cases, and any difference is merely one of degree, not kind.
> So your business model is built on the presumption of possessing an inviolable license to simulate the likeness of others?

No. It's based on people desiring a publishing platform that does not allow interference from intermediaries ala YouTube, Facebook, or Amazon.

> Challenging the idea that someone can’t control the reproduction of their likeness full stop is settled in the general sense in law.

You're commenting on an article that says this content is probably legal. If you think it's not, it'd probably make more sense to comment on the top-level thread.
> I suppose that the boring truth is that Facebook just used it's vast financial resources to protect itself in a way that lavabit never could

This is the accurate take :)

Facebook, like Google, was very unhappy about the wholesale tapping of cables revealed in the Snowden docs and rapidly moved to encrypt all the things formerly assumed safe/inscrutable.

If you give an inch to a government you then have to deal with every other government wanting their inch too. The easiest way to deal with this is to vigorously fight every request from a government.

You can't do a secret backdoor that bypasses this because it will get discovered eventually and then same problem occurs.
This edges a little close to state media. Of course it’s not the same, but if the guiding philosophy is ‘we cannot trust the public with certain information, for it’s own good’, then we’ve adopted whatever the hell they do in non-free countries.

Very bad precedent, very Un-American.

Edit: As an arrogant American, I forgot to consider that this might be a global Youtube policy.
Obviously everyone’s numbers are going to go down this year. Does it really take a genius to figure out that Apple’s numbers will go down - especially since Apple already said that?

But if you haven’t noticed, Apple’s “competitors” in the phone market haven’t actually been able to make any money in a decade. Only Samsung makes any real profit in the phone market (much less than Apple) but only because of their manufacturing arm - not their phones.
But they're all the same aged or very closely aged. Having genuine interactions with an non-authority-figure adults is important for children (and was how most of the world worked until the invention of modern schooling).
> Sorry to sound snarky, but the idea that homeschool kids are somehow socially stunted is a myth that needs to die.

I'm sorry, but it's not a myth. It's something that can and does happen in many cases, depending pretty much entirely on the attitude of the parents. I was homeschooled. My religious parents viewed it as an opportunity to shelter me from the evils of the world. I now have social anxiety, difficulty relating to other people, an inability to make and keep friends, and several other mental health issues.

The majority of "homeschooled" students I knew (and know) were barely homeschooled - starting in middle school or high school, most of their classes were taught co-operatively by other homeschooling parents, or paid community college professors looking for some extra money. (I took several math and science classes this way.) Full homeschooling (where every single "class" from K-12 is done in the home) needs to be undertaken with extreme caution, if at all, especially when the kids get past grade school, and need to be hearing the ideas and input of peers as they relate to the things they are learning. The also need to be having social experiences with peers many times per week, which becomes very difficult even for dedicated parents.

Right. The cost of hardware and power is substantial.
There's some value in that. Not as a long term principle, but I am all for having students learn a variety of methods and have to spend some time working through those methods. But only to make sure the students are giving the different methods a shot and actually finding the one that makes the most sense to them, rather than just sticking with whatever was learned first. If they're never given the chance to just work with their method of choice after, it's pointless.
Not really, but i put it first because it is a direct neighbour, and "gut feeling" :-)
Yeah, that's a more reasonable interpretation.
Does authenticity matter for a disposable excrement catcher? If they sold you diapers lined with broken glass, fraud would be the least of their crimes.
Me neither, but I've also never met someone with this much incentive to play the card..
Not writing about a 2? year period that happened 32 years ago isn't lying.
Mirroring would imply it is being served from somewhere other than Medium, right? Is that the case or is this just a custom domain (medium.economist.com) pointing to their Medium blog? I believe custom domains are a common practice for larger brands.
Wow, that's a lot!

Thanks for sharing, especially iTerm2 and MacVim.
It seems like the greater risk described in this blog is attackers using social engineering against your bank to gain access to it. How do you prevent that?
The most obvious problems I face with Amazon are due almost entirely to how it's built and how it runs its third-party seller platform. There are duplicate product listings, fake products, fake reviews, and mixed inventory now to the extent that even buying something where "Amazon" is listed as the seller does not prevent you from getting inventory sourced by one of the third-party sellers of the same product. Because of this, I've found myself more and more going to alternatives where I can actually know and trust the retailer and supply chain. I long for the pre-platform Amazon days.

The news that Amazon has also abused sellers on their platform should shock nobody. As soon as they got into selling house brands, the writing was on the wall. Ironically, I can actually trust Amazon's house brands to at least be legitimate, non-fake products even if they do tend to be cheaply made.
I got paywalled by medium.
