"Free speech" is a ridiculous charge to level at this. The concept of a government-protected trademark is itself a restriction on free speech in the first place, as are all consumer-protection labeling laws.
Can't speak for others but I've worked on many legacy PHP codebases over the years, it has never been a pleasant experience. Even when it's a PHP 7 codebase the same bad practices from PHP 5 and earlier are all present and accounted for. As are the subtle bugs stemming from an inconsistent standard library and PHPs approach to error handling. I'm sure that there's plenty of good PHP code out there, maybe I've just been unlucky.
> Copyright is simply a question of source. Unlike patents, it’s very possible for two independent people to come up with the exact same sentence and those people to independently own copyrights to the exact same words.

I like the simplicity! Some of the other options out there are pretty elaborate and not straightforward to get started.

One thing I'm always looking for in these is the docker run one liner. Because if I incorporate a tool into my work, how do I better ensure it's going to stay around by either pragmatic paid plan or OSS self host?
I'm not sure how that would have been better. You are basically calling to mix them in with the whole population, do you would expect them to get more exposure, right? Why do you think it would have been less?
One of my favourite datasets to play with is the city of San Francisco's tree database. 190,000 records each with lat/lon, species, plant date, caretaking organization and more.

Out of curiosity I set up a script to grab a new copy every day and diff it - turns out they post an update to it nearly every working day! https://simonwillison.net/2019/Mar/13/tree-history/
A toll is a tax. Road usage isn’t equivalent, some roads are used more than others and at certain times. The goal would be to vary the tax based on demand, which is different for each road and time.

This already happens in many places, especially with tunnels and bridges.

Am I unreasonable to have an expectation of privacy while in my backyard? Certainly I can have an expectation of privacy while also not being inside a building at the same time.
Not at all. I have worked with both for a long time and I can clearly see the differences. They are used for different purposes. The people comparing any PHP frameworks to NextJS have not been very experienced with frontend development, IMO.
About zero.

Emulators and near perfect ones already exist.

Sure they still sell old games on through their retro console but these can be pirated easily on existing consoles.

This wouldn’t affect the bottom line really at all since this will not make piracy easier.

The only possible loss here is due to fines from regulators or law suits from 3rd parties which had their licenses IP exposed but the latter would be a hard thing to prove or estimate it would be hard to claim that 25-30 year old SGI IP would be that valuable to their competitors today especially since SGI is dead and who knows who owns that IP right now.

Well, in the US but South Korea, Taiwan, Vietnam,Singapore, Australia, and New Zealand as examples are doing a pretty good job with tracing and isolating to keep the virus contained without much lockdown. And I'm probably unfairly slighting some countries by leaving them off that list but those are the ones that come to mind as generally figuring out who has the virus and how they got it. In places like the US and Europe, of course, who knows how any given person passed it on.
It really depends.

The free market is only efficient when transaction costs are low. For many forms of travel, the cost of monitoring such travel makes tracking far too expensive. Even just understanding a toll scheme has its own cost; you don't want to be too worried about misestimating the cost of every drive down to the grocery store.

For long-distance interstate travel, however, toll roads make a lot of sense. This is particularly the case where trucks are involved. You charge proportionally to axle weight, so the companies doing the shipping pay for the damage they are doing to the roads.

In other congested areas, tolls can serve as an effective form of rationing, particularly over bridges or through tunnels. This encourages more efficient resource usage, e.g. by making carpooling more worthwhile. This also makes more sense for city centers with congestion-charge fees. The alternative rationing scheme here, "sitting in traffic", is a very bad way to pay for things and imposes its own very high transaction costs.
It is possible to implement it in a lot of languages.

I write short paragraphs as they're easier to scan-read than long paragraphs.

And if you think that's dramatic phrasing, you should see the way I wrote back in my startup days 7+ years ago :)

My approach is to tread carefully and avoid seeming dogmatic. These are complex issues and discussions can easily go bad if they're not handled sensitively.
Thank you for explaining. Many videos on YouTube are low quality.

Also, if I buy it I expect that some decent percentage of my purchase price makes it back to the original artist. (I know, very naïve of me). If I get it off youtube then the artist might get just a fraction of a cent in the best case.

It's not pointless, but the outline only shows up if the generated tex file is compiled twice. The default org to latex export will only compile it once.

Well, your memory model might fail to properly expose "atomic" access at the level you're actually relying on to prove that your 'data race' is safe. (Or using such fine-grained atomic accesses might have bad performance implications that can't be worked around using relaxed operations, etc.) But I don't think that's going to be a common case.
Articles like this, are a good reminder, to maybe not be tooo hard with the anti-science crowd. Or the ignorant about science crowd.

It is all quite new, and probably take some more years, to sink in. So keep that in mind, the next time you discuss with anti-vaccers, anti climate change, ... as that level of ignorance can get depressing otherwise.

I think it is always a good idea to reflect on your relationships and how you communicate with your teammates. Like the article says, communication is tricky. "We must strive to ensure what we say actually goes in, is understood, and elicits change." Giving critical feedback is something that is very difficult to do right, which is why the author suggests to avoid it when possible. Also, we all underestimate the value of (well-done) positive feedback. There is a lot of untapped potential in positive feedback. It is the best way to bring out the best in your teammates, since they will continue to focus on their strengths.
I second this. I tried a few months ago to get it working and was really frustrated with the state of the build scripts on Ubuntu and variants.
Being held liable in some form doesn't mean they're being held liable for the same offense. "is liable for the resulting acts of infringement by third parties using the device" does not mean the same thing as "has committed infringement". The courts are saying that you as a contributory infringer have a legal liability relating to the infringement, but you have not actually yourself violated one of the exclusive rights of the copyright owner—which is what copyright infringement means.
To have a group of protestors who volunteer for a commonly accepted goal among them be organized, functioning and effective without hierarchical structures is vastly different from having a whole society functional and effective without hierarchical structures. What every system first and foremost must face is how conflicts are resolved, because conflicts of every level of severity will arise without fail. A group without conflicts, that exists exactly because it is made of people who truly think exactly alike, like HK protesters, is not a good example. ANY group of people who truly think exactly alike is perfectly functional, no matter what it is they collectively value.
It completely outrageous for you to characterize my critical views as "hate" for anything.

It doesn't "seem". It is clearly my preference to have any sort of surveillance be done by a government that answers to ME, the citizen. EULA vs Constitution.

And no, I do not trust them with anything.

And also an interesting little fact about "governments". They change. People have been known to have substantial say in their behavior. And there is that little ("hateful") matter of Law of the land.
That policy obviously just results in Wine contributors not disclosing seeing Microsoft source code, which is a good thing for Wine, but does not imply that having Microsoft source code (or Nintendo's in this case) is useless.

Also looking at source code and documentation does not mean that the code you write is derived work (although it makes it very slightly more risky that it is).
How's that related to the article at all?
Giving an iMac G4 a Beautiful New Life
I have had decent success with telling people how certain behaviors affected me. “When you do X it comes access to me as Y and makes me feel Z or affects me in this way. I don’t know how other people are affected by this but this is how I feel. Just my personal opinion”. I try to avoid generalized comments. I just talk about what it does to me.
Meanwhile today in Hamburg it went down from 4 to 3°C between 00:50AM and 01:11AM at some point, and later, 1,5km away on the outskirts next/near to open fields it went down to 2 to 1° at 04:50AM. That felt rather cold for early May. (I've been walking to the gas station, and ventilating my rooms at these times. BRRR!)

As i understand it, it all depends on the shape of the polar vortex pattern which in turn shapes/modulates the jet stream.
Most of the comments here seem to miss the crucial point: it doesn't matter whether the DMCA really applies here. Github is privately owned. If Microsoft wants to take down this repository (which they host for free), they are most certainly allowed to and do not even have to give a reason.
You're getting downvotes from the people who don't know that you are 100% right: goto is usually with labels, not line number, for exactly the reason you point out.

I think live streaming is terrible for supreme court. Especially since the oral arguments are the least important part. It's good for them just to release everything at the end of year in June.

If anything this will encourage lawyers and justices to get in interesting tidbits so it can be part of the shit 24 hour news cycle...

I can see no benefit coming from this.
It's not supposed to be a sentence, and not every useful communication needs to be a sentence.

It IS a shorthand for THIS sentence:

"I agree completely with this article/post/comment."

It's usually paired with a follow-up comment adding an additional point or related thought, which makes a lot of sense since this construct originated in a medium with a limited number of characters. You'll notice people don't say "This," in oral conversation; they say "Yeah," or "I agree."

But even "This" on its own, meaning "I agree with this," is a useful contribution to a discussion. Sometimes "I agree with this" is all that needs to be said, and lots of us decided it was OK to shorten that to "This."

Very interesting what galls people into railing against certain language usage! :-)

This is just my personal approach to being disillusioned with tech, but I think about it a lot so I thought I'd share.

I think one of the most dangerous cliches we are taught when we are young is "do what you love, and you'll never work a day in your life".

It sets up the expectation that your passion and your job should be tightly coupled, and if they aren't, there's something flawed with you.

Having a job where you feel creative, productive, and generally fulfilled is a great thing, but if you don't have it, that's fine too. Work the job as best you can, get whatever good parts you can strip from it (learning, socialization, coffee), and spend the other 8-10 hours a day doing things you actually like to do, tech or otherwise.

I try to walk the line of not leaving my friends and teammates out to dry, but also never "laying my body on the tracks" for the corporation. Your friends will return the favor; the company won't.

This definitely won't help you climb the ladder, and it won't garner you fame or fortune from your employment, but you'll be left with an identity and a soul that isn't controlled by profits. I've found it to be worth it, despite the prevailing culture.
Avoid excessive costs and save money with S3 storage classes
I'm against live streaming SCOTUS but I'm not convinced this incentive would exist. This is the last job any of these people will ever have. The only possible promotion is for the Associate Justices to become Chief Justice, and with Roberts on the court that is unlikely-bordering-impossible. There's literally nowhere higher for any of them to go.

However like dantheman said I can see this as a huge negative incentive for the attorneys trying to get a little more air time or exposure.

No way. It's not the e-cigs - those are vastly more helpful than harmful overall. It's Juul specifically - they're the bad player in the game. Not the only one, but the biggest of the handful - most e-cig companies just want to sell within the rules. No need to cut off the nose to spite the face. That would be detrimental.
64 Percent of U.S. Households Either Have or Will Cut Cable TV Subscriptions
I feel like this article goes in a bunch of different directions.

First everyone meets some sort of minimum standards except "Houseparty, Discord, and Doxy.me."

And then after that there is this vague "these are business apps" and "more fun" sort of feature discussion that is very non specific.

In the meantime there's nothing really addressing what those individual companies actually collect / may collect.... and when I think of an "apps can you trust" I think of what those apps themselves might do on their own.
How a quantum computer actually works
For example (from the paper) in a decentralised approach how would you protect against:

The targeted false alerts problem

Assume an attacker wishes to target a particular user and cause them to self-isolate. They can get sufficiently close to the target to create a proximity event that will score as high risk. If the attacker self-decalres symptoms, in the process submitting this contact event, the target will be notified to self-isolate

The mass notification problem

Consider a malicious user, who can collect broadcast identities from around a particular area, such as a hospital, and record them all.

They can register a malicious pseudo-device and generate realistic-looking but entirely fake contact events for all the BroadcastValues it has observed.

I highly encourage anyone interested in the proceedings of SCOTUS to go to https://oyez.org/ for an excellent and well-typeset feed, complete with audio and the official transcripts (be careful with the official transcripts, they sometimes say the opposite of what the audio says, no joke).

You're not disillusioned with technology. You seem to have a great deal of interest and faith in technology.

You seem disillusioned with Capitalism.

The unfortunate truth is that Venture Capitalists run the entire tech industry, and they simply do not care about technology for technology's sake. They care about making money, for money's sake. No matter how innovative and impressive your technology may be, they are only measuring it in dollars.

If you are forced into a decision where you have to make your technology worse to make your bottom line better, you will be expected to make your technology worse ASAP. If you don't do it, the capitalists will take their money and go home.

You should look into some more altruistic tech projects. I have friends that work at a digital accessibility company that is funded almost entirely by donations. They seem to be in the unique situation of being funded for making software that works best for the users, not for making software that earns the most for their investors, as their investors expect no returns on their donations.

But as long as you're working in the commercial tech sector, you're going to have to deal with VCs who don't care one bit about the tech you're producing, only that it maximizes their returns.

Most Supreme Court cases can be observed, which is part of how we hear about them. In this day and age, it just so happens that observing them can now be opened up to everyone.

And yeah, like any new thing I expect there to be a few missteps at first but this is ultimately a good thing if it convinces Americans to be more aware and involved with Supreme Court picks going forward.
Sure. That doesn't mean that what Palantir are doing isn't wrong - selling tools to an entity which is going to use them for harm is wrong, even if they might result in slightly less harm than selling them some other tool.

If someone comes into a gun shop and tells you they want to shoot up a classroom, selling them a pistol instead of a machine gun doesn't make you immune from judgement.
This might be the talk you're referring to: https://invidio.us/watch?v=-zRN7XLCRhc

I don't have time to rewatch it now but I believe the point of the talk was to promote Illumos as the true community-driven open-source fork after Oracle dropped the ball. This is exactly what I'm talking about: the community is often happy to pick up the slack and cover for the failures of these companies, but only when given the opportunity. Yes it's a lot of work, a lot of conversations and a lot of corporate politicking. But how can anyone get started when the relevant parties are not willing to even present an opportunity?

These days I don't have a problem interacting with people. I probably am not top of the scale as far as charisma goes, but I am whole lot better than in my early 20s.
