No, they are entirely different features. Pointer authentication is largely a control-flow integrity feature. Hardware memory tagging attempts to prevents arbitrary overwrites/memory corruption, even to data. There are dozens of other features that prevent memory corruption and it's not really "playing word games" to distinguish between them.

IA could have easily coordinated with publishers beforehand and got them on board as a good publicity opportunity. Instead they did it on their own, very clearly violating the copyrights.

Like it or not, copyright holders can set whatever terms they want on the material they own. That includes making choices that you think are dumb or bad for business. It’s not the job of copyright to ensure companies serve the public good or even do things that keep them in business. That’s up to the market.

While this is always an interesting topic, this article is barely more than an advertisement for a book. I think the advertisement would have been more effective if it picked one example, such as whale song, and stuck with it a bit. Then ended with 'learn more about this and other interesting animal behavior in the new book.'
Would you say this is true outside of the US as well? Does the moral hazard get introduced with lobbying, or do you find it to be problematic on its own?

I can't say I'm surprised; it was a lot of legal risk. But also, not a fan of copyright as-is. It's a real mickey mouse game, and it's not authors walking away with the fat paychecks.

Speaking of being lost you might enjoy this story from 2009 where people called the cops on Bob Dylan for being "an 'eccentric-looking old man' in their yard," and the officer did not recognize him:

"'I asked him what his name was and he said, 'Bob Dylan,' Buble said. "Now, I've seen pictures of Bob Dylan from a long time ago and he didn't look like Bob Dylan to me at all. He was wearing black sweatpants tucked into black rain boots, and two raincoats with the hood pulled down over his head."

"He was acting very suspicious,'' Buble said. "Not delusional, just suspicious. You know, it was pouring rain and everything."

The point is not lack of space. If the metro station in Europe has 10 times as many people in 1 km radius around it as a metro station in US, you’ll have 10 times as many people riding it. If you have too few people riding it, the capital costs of building the metro (which, by the way, are much higher in the US than in Europe for some inexplicable reason) will be ten times higher per rider. At the same time, low ridership will also result in reducing number of trains per hour to control the costs, further reducing the ridership. The result is that you get a very expensive metro system that nobody is actually using, because most people don’t live close enough to use it, and the train schedules are less convenient than driving.
I think most people agree that creators should be paid. It’s the greed of big publishing companies (especially in research) that drive people up a wall with anger.

Gutenberg invented movable type and a publication explosion followed. Heretofore books were hand copied, with errors etc. A medieval ~Xerox room was full of scribes - hard at work. A Xerox salesman who promised to double the speed of your copying - he walked in a hulking slave with a whip - all the monks visibly and hurriedly sped up.
Back to Gutenberg, https://www.livescience.com/2569-gutenberg-changed-world.htm... the Authors fought printing presses, they fought even lending libraries. Books were often chained to the shelves to limit access as well as theft.

So here we are now. Progress is hampered by the old farts, the author's guilds, the Enslaviers,(intentional typo on Elsevier) who want us to be in permanent economic thralldom to them. They are mere pebbls in the rivers of progress, so we pay them to go away, or break them up.
MIT has the right idea. I wish the Nobel Committee would announce that they will only consider openly published knowledge for future prizes. I wish all governmental other funders of research would mandate open publication. I wish all past published work was declared open NOW!!
I feel like this is a result of lying in government. People made a contract to bend the curve and quickly it turned into tyranny.

That contract then turned into eliminating the disease all together. Also we know more now about who getting sick and whose dying so of course the same decisions wouldn't be made.
You nailed it. I am personally guilty of creating all kinds of helper tools over GitLab CI/CD madness.

Precisely. A union is a cartel. It exists to restrict supply of the product they sell (labour) in order to fetch a higher price. They work just like any other cartel, for instance OPEC. Cartels benefit at the expense of everyone who is not in it. They perform rent-seeking behaviour to extract more than the product they sell is worth.

From the perspective of an economist, all cartels are bad, whether they deal in oil or labour or anything else.
Not a source I'd be willing to provide, especially given such lists are precisely what political organizers avoid sharing.

>There are over 500 billionaires in just the US alone. His wealth was an essential ingredient for sure, but it must be obvious that it takes more than wealth to create a company like SpaceX.

it's just that there are lots of low risks ways to make money with lots of capital than to risk wasting it on engineering or 'boundary-push' style business movements.

Big projects are cool, and great PR -- but safe trading and high interest accounts pay out more consistently, and often better.

It'd be nice to move the incentive over to value-building/engineering more than banking, though.
> I tend to think the real problem is the overly strict conception of duplicate.

I see where you're coming from, but having identical questions exist alongside each other just because their dates are different does not help those who follow a link to the older question. A new mechanism to indicate different versions would have to be added for this not to be confusing, if this is the solution we want to go with.

> Yes, there are legitimately people who believe the master-slave terminology trivializes American slavery.

I suppose this is something I don't understand. How do terms become trivial when used in separate contexts? They are simply descriptive terms. Furthermore, from an etymological standpoint, the term "master" has been used to signify preeminence since the 13th century. E.g. master's degree, master-key, master copy, etc. This is the meaning that seems more applicable to a version control system.

This is an appalling misunderstanding of what really happened in Camden. Take a trip there, know what you'll find? Police cars, policemen and police stations. THEY STILL HAVE POLICE!
What they REALLY did was a police reboot, essentially fired everyone and rebuilt from the ground up. People who point to Camden to try and support their narrative are dangerously misinformed.

I worked over 100 hours a week on the 3rd - 6th version of the iPhone.
Did I make a lot of money from working there? No not really. More than I made at the 3 startups I joined afterwards .. but only because I didn't sell my stocks.
Did I learn a lot yes absolutely, probably about 5 years worth.
Has it helped my career: Absolutely. It's opened many doors. I usually get to pick what I want to work on.

Did Paul Graham and Sam Altman both try to convince me to quit and join a yc startup or start my own. Yes at 2 different Startup schools they told me I was wasting my time. Shortly after I did join heed their advice and join 3 separate startups ... with mixed results.

Did I work too hard? Ultimately no, because it's like investing in the market. Yes you think you'd rather have more (booze, travel, video game, etc) at the time, but those things don't improve your life in the long run. And ultimately I wouldn't change where I am today for the world ... minus the pandemic / quarantine / civil unrest.
Seems to be a VR game, so unless VR suddenly gets a lot cheaper and a lot better, Pavlov will never replace CS.

Looking at the first few seconds of the first video on Steam for Pavlov (https://store.steampowered.com/app/555160/Pavlov_VR/) shows a very low-skilled encounter as well. If they are trying to attract CS players, they need to show it's a game that shows skills, not like that.
Perhaps, but even so I still wouldn't want to work at a place that requires bodyguards, even if bodyguards are not the cause of the danger.

Without getting into the details of cause and effect, look at it from the perspective of the current employees. Currently it's a nice place to work. Contrasting with previous experiences with unions where they've been terrible experiences to work at. Why would I want this kind of change?
Points where Linux could have played out differently
On one hand yes, on the other hand there is a difference in making better products vs. enriching the product by buying other products and integrating them. On the other hand, there is no single 'right way' of course, and adding knowledge, people and IP via acquisition is a functional way to do that.

But people will inevitably compare products and with GitLab vs. GitHub it's an obvious one to make. I do get the feeling that since Microsoft bought GitHub they are accelerating their feature releases to be more in line with GitLab's speed.

There's no oligopoly of tech companies like hollywood studios though. Even the salary-collusion BS was a very small group of companies and illegal without union protection.

Also the Rock may pay his union dues because (a) he's required to be a memeber and (b) the cost is immaterial to him. The top performers are usually hampered by unions they'd be fine without; he's not going to need the pension and health insurance the collective bargaining agreement gets him.

Similarly, asserting a court erred in a spectacularly ridiculous way is not an argument.

Note that before 1989, rules in USA were quite different. Instead of: everything is IP, almost forever - explicit copyright registration was required for protection of works.

While object code was ruled as copyrightable for pretty obvious reasons, initial rulings seems quite consistent with law at the time. Current 100+ year copyright terms might seem similarly ridiculous to copyrights founders.
Well if it was on Twitter, it has to be true.
It doesnt have to be. Why don't they do something like pay private prisons the bare minimum per diem but then offer a trailing commission for every year an ex-con is out of jail past a certain date.

Do the statistics for average time to return to prison, and pay them a bonus every year a prisoner is over that average date for 10 years type thing.

So jails make little money for the incarceration but earn profits from the rehabilitation.

During the 30-35 years of the rapid prison population expansion, private prisons represented an even smaller portion of the US prison population, closer to 2-3% averaged. Their expansion in market share has occurred at a time when the US prison population has been shrinking, but that's a wildly inconvenient fact.

It was government prisons nearly all of those people were put into during the prime years of the massive drug war, not private prisons. Commenters always and without exception intentionally ignore that fact, for obvious reasons (implodes the propaganda). I'm entirely against private prisons, however it's comical the lengths people will go to, to pretend it wasn't government prisons those millions of people were put into. The prison boom was a government prison boom. The prison industrial complex was a government effort almost exclusively. The drug war was a government effort. The cops (government) benefitted, the police unions benefitted, the government contractors benefitted, the politicians benefitted (jobs and construction in their districts, along with more tax money and government spending).
I’m definitely in the minority here but when I’m learning a new language I kind of prefer to use a slightly outdated resource. When you get stuck and look for help you get the gist of the answer you’re looking for but not the solution and then you have to figure out the rest. It’s like a hint that gets you 50-90% of the way there.

When you’re in the middle of work and not actively trying to learn new material I’m sure the obsolete answers are frustrating but I don’t think the outdated information is entirely useless.

Curious as to how does this compare to "Programmable Wireless" and whether it supports calls and SMS? It's not clear whether it's an evolution of Programmable Wireless or something totally separate. I tend towards the latter because the documentation is separate between both offerings.

Last time I tried Programmable Wireless it was very lacking. Calls were not supported on roaming at all (so I couldn't test it as I'm outside the US) and SMS was very flaky; some texts outright bypassed the SMS to API routing and were handled by the upstream carrier directly.

There was also a "bug" where you couldn't send SMS to the SIM using an arbitrary originator number. I say bug in quotes because I'm sure there is some obscure reason for it (or is it to cover a limitation?) because the error code returned was custom and seemed explicitly made for this reason (and was not mentioned on any docs).

I understand it was in early beta when I tried it but none of these issues were resolved even years later.
Why is this comment greyed? It's not an insult, or troll, it's a known problem and the OP shifted the debate to horrible stuff done in state prisons, which is equally true and awful, but doesn't change the facts, right?

Your internship and research assistant are really good starting point.
- Observe the work culture in your current workspace and ask feedback from your manager and coworkers.
-Make a list of your weak and strong points.For me this helped me choosing the kind of work I love to do. Example: I like talking to people and solving problems,so I prefer customer support or BA role than a programmer. I know programming but I struggle to sit and code longer hours.
- If needed improve your softskill. Many online free training available
- Be flexible with relocation if the role promise long-term career growth and build strong skillset for your profile.
My first thought was 'I feel bad for the people who spent a million bucks on a condo in Pike / Pine', but my second thought was that these are likely also people who voted for people like Sawant so they made their own bed.
that's always been common. the "better" (not really) approach is to simply report "police reported that x, y, z happened" without any sort of critical perspective or fact check at all.
A strawman argument can be true, but still be a strawman. The essential point is that it's a distraction.

Saying "we have to fix state prisons too!" is not an argument against "private prisons are a moral hazard". We should do both!
Your intuition is correct. Workplace-based bargaining was put in place with NRLA in 1935, which requires that unions be formed on the basis of shop votes. This was done to prevent labor from having the same political power that sector-wide unions have in Europe. The sector-wide Hollywood unions were grandfathered in, which is why they remain as successful and powerful as they are today.
