Sure, but phishing mails are nothing new: Pre internet, you got actual letters mailed to random people. Same sort of thing, just slower and more costly.

And neither is misinformation: Government and/or religion could alter your entire worldview, and unless you were lucky enough to travel, you never knew. For example: The spanish flu was really called that because Spain didn't have the wartime controls on its press like, say, the US did. It is likely the US troops really did a job spreading the pandemic, but we (Americans) couldn't really report on the virus at the time.
You can copyright recipes but it's functionally useless if you want to protect against reinvention. Someone can make cookies based on your recipe and then make them again without looking at the recipe and then finally write their own recipe and still not violate copyright. You could repeat this for every single recipe in the book and then create an almost identical book with exactly the same recipes in the same order. There would be some minor differences because your memory is off and you have some creative freedom to design the book any way you want. However you wrote that book yourself and therefore it is yours.

Is there still a way to protect your cookies? Yes, it's called patent law. It's explicitly designed to prevent reinvention.

> The issue isn't with being forced to use social media, it's being forced to use only facebook's network.

Yes it is, read the article. The report states that regulators take issue with the fact that users have to log into an account that has nothing to do with gaming in order to use a gaming product.

This isn’t about using one social media network over another, it’s about requiring users to hand over personal consumer data in order to use a product that has no reason not to function without it.

I think the original analogy is more appropriate to some sort of investment strategy, you don't know how all your investments will pan out - you have insufficient knowledge - as you go on you get more knowledge and you need to readjust your portfolio. Sometimes that means bringing in new investments and cleaning out old.

That analogy however does not work well with the idea of paying down debt etc. Because paying down debt is drawn out process with a clear result and changing your investments is probably not as drawn out and the result is still somewhat up in the air.

In conclusion, analogies are a land of contrasts of varying applicability.
I was thinking of exactly this when I read the article.

The plot point being that when the bandwidth gets too low, the interpolation AI has to make lots of stuff up, you are not quite sure exactly what was said.

I seem to remember the bandwidth in the book was very tiny, small number of bits per second (?) so the AI was taking the speech and compressing it into something more compressed than text then decompressing it at the other end into something that was more or less the same.
> Despite, of course, almost everything working almost all of the time. And, of course, of almost everyone involved acting in good faith.

That depends on the definition of "working", I think. I don't doubt the good faith of those involved, but "some form of train service between two locations" is a very low hurdle for "working" if that train is late, slower then advertised, only half the size it was announced to be, or running it costs three times as much as trains elsewhere. If you consider quality and price, not just binary functionality, "working" becomes a lot fuzzier.

It's hard to compare public services and government actions because we don't have competing government in the same locations, but "something happens" isn't necessarily "everything working almost all of the time".

Not exactly.

You can separate transmit and receive IPs, if your tx network does not implement source filtering.

So you can tx from one place and receive from one or more other places "sensors" that you use to receive SYN-ACKs.

You can use several (an arbitrary number) of spoofed source IPs on tx to hide your "real" rx IPs, at the cost of more egress traffic.

There is a technique involving ipids (idle scanning) you can use which does not reveal your IP at all but it is not reliable; read: not usable beyond very tiny scale. You could put a lot of effort into it but it's not worth it. Nobody beyond a few vociferous cranks _really_ cares about IP scanning.

The real way to stay off radars (eg dshield) while mass scanning is have a ton of unrelated IPs and scan as slow as you can stand. This assumes good randomization (not obviously striping across networks from the same IP).
>The law understands that the whole is more than the sum of its parts.

No it doesn't. If that was the case then you could just do piecewise reinvention and then later on recombine the result.

Grasp the difference. Copyright prevents 1:1 copies, not against reinvention, patents do that.
There's an argument to be made that if your system accepts a connection, then that's permission to connect.
If it then accepts a HTTP Request, as these folks have, then that's permission to continue with the request.

If they didn't want to accept any connections, they should've closed the port.

If they only wanted authorised users to connect, they should put an authorisation requirement on the connection.

As for your statement that there's no valid research purpose, that's your assertion, a lot of people will disagree.

The issue is that Oculus is a gaming platform, and gaming platforms don’t need social media data to play games. It’s an arbitrary requirement that has no practical function beyond collecting user data.

Oh ok, so you will remain a skeptic until it's finished.
Copyright protects your code as it is. The work itself is protected. Nobody can copy it and hopefully Google didn't copy anything.

It doesn't protect against reinvention because it's easy to bypass copyright through clean room designs which is probably what Google did.

Clang, like GCC, has -C and -CC flags to preserve comments during preprocessing. However, these are really flags for the underlying preprocessor. Your parent might be thinking of some application of the Clang frontend that does not run preprocessing. For example, clang-format will probably not want to preprocess the code nor strip out comments.
Thanks! I was hoping somebody would steer me in the right direction if they had something. I wonder when AMD will focus on making things that are developer focused, I know for example that Intel has their own C++ compiler, not sure if AMD has one, though I heard it mentioned they've been contributing to LLVM. If the tooling developers use is enhanced for your hardware platform it will make it almost a no brainer to use for new projects.

Not exactly - there's no mechanism to expel a member state from the EU.

Member states may have "certain [...] rights deriving from the application of the Treaties to the Member State in question, including the voting rights of the representative of the government of that Member State in the Council" suspended, but "The obligations of the Member State in question under the Treaties shall in any case continue to be binding on that State." (Article 7 TEU)

The only way for a member state to cease being a member state is through the withdrawal process in Article 50 TEU (i.e. like Brexit).

>The idea that an API could legally be an "original work of authorship" makes a lot of sense; but the technical implications could indeed harm the industry overall.

It doesn't make sense because an API doesn't exist in the work. Copyrighting APIs is functionally useless because you can have multiple works with the same API without violating copyright through clean room designs. Therefore whatever protection you want should cover more than one work. Copyright only covers the works you create yourself. It doesn't cover works that other people create even when they are directly inspired by your works. We have patent law for this.

> With internet, you have much higher chance of knowing stuff is misinformation, though.

No, with internet you have a much higher chance of being able to find out that a particular thing is misinformation if you put in the time and effort to research it.

But also because of internet you are exposed to a much higher percentage of false information than before, because internet lowered the cost of producing and disseminating false information much more than it lowered the cost of producing and disseminating true information.

And with social media, which is one of the biggest ways false information gets spread, taking up a large fraction of a lot of people's time outside of work they rarely find the time to research the information they get.

Even if you do take the time to try to research the latest false information, there is a decent chance you won't find anything because refuting a false claim takes longer than making a false claim. By the time the debunking is available, there is a good chance you've moved on to something else and are no longer interested. When the false information shows up again on your social media, it is no longer new to you and the chance you'll try again to vet it is much lower.

This is not fundamentally different from other lousy compression algorithms.

Snap, Tiktok, Pinterest, and even twitter were never competing for the space that Facebook has. The main space Facebook has is social advertising and there is no competitors and anyone tries to enter that market gets attacked by Facebook since Facebook runs it. Try starting a company that will allow you to buy influencer ads on Instagram and uses the API the influencer can grant to you to correctly identify how much money to pay the influencer. Facebook will remove your API access the minute it realises you're trying to do advertising and they're not getting a cut. Facebook are very open that their problem is they're not making any money on it. We understand their reasoning but it's againist the law to then sue companies for trying to get public data and the other attacks. If Google can't rank it's own products higher in google search Facebook shouldn't be allowed to remove API access solely because you're providing a service they don't even provide and don't even want to provide.
