You didn't see the original question, it was edited, so we cannot discuss that further.

"[...] which means “distribute” under copyright law" <-- Citation needed please, because I don't think that's correct.

From the site you linked:

"Distribute copies or phonorecords of the work to the public by sale or other transfer of ownership or by rental, lease, or lending."

What I seem to grasp about the difference between reproducing and redistributing is that it has to do with the concept of "transfer of ownership". Also derivate work and redistribution are not mutually exclusive.

The moment you create a new thing and start distributing it (even if you do not modify it), you become the de facto owner of that new product, and copyright law is trying to limit the extent of the rights that apply there. So, in the case of music, it's different thing to play (reproduce) a song than to create a new album with your favorite artists that happens to include that particular song (redistribution).
From the headline alone: the "physics we don't understand" part only really makes sense if you assume the things you see on camera correspond to physical objects moving in space, and not some optical effect. If you thought a lens flare was a physical object you'd think it was "physics we don't understand", but the effect itself is perfectly explainable using physics we understand.
Look around you. The market has spoken. It doesn’t work in aggregate, which is why even Ubuntu checks for updates periodically by default.

I don’t see anyone forking that in outrage.
They should be concerned of who wants to buy the infrastructure at a reduced price
“Single family” is a property of the building, not the people living in it. A multi-family building has separately locking units with their own kitchens. Where there are too many large houses and not enough apartments, many of the houses end up with would-be apartment dwellers living communally.

You do sometimes here about communities trying to enforce prohibitions on unrelated people living together in single family homes, but where the zoning itself is almost universal in America, such enforcement is very rare.
The BBC is not what it once was. :(
Well that's sure interesting!

I'd not heard of these before but that sure does sound like it could be what those military videos are showing and I have to agree that it's likely "the most plausible explanation" I've heard yet.
I worked on a reimbursement platform for a couple of years. It was an added layer of stress in my life that I frankly could do without... and it was just reimbursing company expenses.

Can’t imagine doing investments or raw banking.

Not surprised the ‘startup motto’ lives strong regardless of sector... but disappointing for sure.
Won't work. This tool is attacking them like the presence of a vegan attacks some hardcore meat eaters. They might realize deep down that this is not an argument they can win but it offends their core existence in some ways so they can't help but die defending their incoherent arguments.

Ethical or not, it's clear Microsoft isn't going to get into real legal trouble due to this, and if the tool is genuinely useful, it's going to "allow the laundering of GPL code" into companies, whatever that means.

If that offends people then they better learn the lesson and not produce open source any more. I'm not happy but if thats the direction the natural progression of things take whatever let's see where that goes.
It can't really replace health care. The system works because people who don't need it as much (young people) pay for it. If they can choose not to, the entire system falls apart.
I mean, the crash reports appear to be with a confirmation in upstream already? (see screenshot in https://github.com/audacity/audacity/pull/836)
I'm sorry, I did try to graciously point out that you had taken your patently noble defiance of the Chinese Communist Party and turned it into something that reflected poorly on your humility and empathy for others. Might I suggest writing the CCP a letter about the matter rather than speaking inappropriately about 'courage' and lecturing others?

Which is saying a lot considering how much larger the film industry is in Los Angeles. A huge percentage of films are done in southern California and even written into the script as taking place there. And yet the iconography and history of New York city is just so rich that it still pervades a lot of pop culture.

Last time I checked (about an hour ago), that wasn't true. Feel free to provide evidence to support your argument.

Ask HN: Junior Engineers Working Remotely
Hi there, I'm a software engineer working @ FAANG, I've been here a year, looking to switch teams to somewhere with less legacy systems.

I've met with several teams, but one in particular stood out, since the manager was saying they are a distributed team, some people are in the bay while some are based in brazil.

This is the only team I think I will find that supports fully remote work, it would be a huge relief to not have to move to an expensive cost of living area like the bay or seattle, but at the same time being fully remote I would possibly, not be able to build the same relationships as I would have in person.

Do you think not being in office will hurt my future career in a significant way as a junior engineer? I have nothing to compare it to since I joined during the pandemic, I feel like I have been productive in my single year tenure and enjoy not having to sit in traffic every day.
The DNI's UFO report clarifies that these objects were observed with multiple sensors and spotted by eyewitness. If you see something with radar, on the camera, you pick it up with the electro-optical system, and you and a few other folks see it with your eyes, then it is probably not a lens-flare.

The DNI concluded that the UFO's are likely physical things.

What you've misunderstood is it is the copies that are sold, not the copyrights.

This is not what redistribution means. You seem confused about this word.
I’m a big fan of WebDAV. As a bonus, you can host tiddlywiki in WebDAV and it just works.

The only downside as far as I can tell is WebDAV support in Windows Explorer has problems with modern TLS setups.
Crash reporting is only needed if you write software that crashes in the first place.

Do you think the SQLite developers have ever felt like they need automated crash reporting from their users? (see https://corecursive.com/066-sqlite-with-richard-hipp/ , which got discussed recently: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27718701 ) And SQLite accepts way richer input (SQL queries) from users than Audacity does (audio files).

There are many ways to reduce bugs. Extensive coverage-guided testing, like SQLite does, is one. Automated fuzzing is another. Writing in languages with strong type systems that let you statically verify the program's behavior is another. Collecting crash reports is another, and it's certainly one valid way, but it's not the only way.

It's pretty clear that Audacity's users, in aggregate, aren't that concerned about needing crashes fixed - or at least are less concerned about it than about their privacy. Maybe Audacity already is sufficiently bug-free for their needs!

While I also think that the "telemetry" argument is overblown, and I think automated updates are basically table stakes, and I wholeheartedly agree with you re JS and Electron, I think it's entirely reasonable for users to say that they don't find automated crash reporting valuable, and I don't think that it's particularly reasonable for developers to say "We know better than you."
Stay safe, stay free.

Decred solves this. In hybrid PoW/PoS, coin holders vote with their equity. Skin in the game provides the greatest incentive for proper decision making. Decred was started by Bitcoin developers early on when they saw that Bitcoin had a problem with governance and decision making. Bitcoin's consensus rules are set in stone. Decred has a measurable and defined process for consensus rule upgrades.
Well Israel might be pretty excited since the plans take that canal through the Gaza Strip which is an area that the government has wanted to displace elsewhere for quite some time.
That's perhaps the most important question of this entire debate, and it's the one that no one is considering seriously here in the comments. I personally think that it's because no one at HN is both competent enough at copyright and licensing law to debate it and willing to spend time debating it with Internet commenters for a $0/hour wage.

People have been trying to accomplish that for 65 years. We're not even close. It's the software equivalent of cold fusion (with less scientific rigor)

Right... which is why the studies have avoided folks with bipolar and focused on straight depression.

As I said, I'm not a lawyer, but I believe they're displaying it under the terms of the GitHub ToS, using rights granted to them when the project is uploaded to GitHub, not under the terms of the license the project uses for everyone else.
Given how smoothly chinas invasion of Hong Kong went, I wondered how far back one had to go to find similar articles about how China couldn’t invade Hong Kong. But searching for the headline with Hong Kong instead of Taiwan only returns results regarding China and Taiwan.

"publish" and "share" mean redistribution. "Store" and "copy" mean reproduce.
I think you are not taking into account the path to existential depression.

The article describes some very specific experiences of so-called gifted people, which leads to the possibility of existential depression.

It seems very unlikely that the experiences he describes are common among most people.

I didn't read the article so much as "I am gifted, therefore I will be existentially depressed" but more along the lines of "I am gifted, and the effect this has on my life and experiences may cause existential depression".

This article opened my eyes as to why I may have had particular experiences in my life.

The world would have much bigger problems than semiconductors if a full blown war happened in Taiwan.

It won’t happen anyway. China is just Sabre rattling and beating its chest for political gain.

If they were going to do it then it should have been on Trumps watch, when there was no certainty at all the USA would back its allies in a conflict. Not that there’s much certainty now.

> Copyleft does not benefit from tighter copyright laws

Of course it does, at least the goal copyleft serves for RMS style Free Software ideologues. While copyleft may be motivated by an ideology that prefers no copyright protections, at least for software, it relies on copyright maximalism to avoid nonfree derivatives. From advocates viewpoint, the worst situation is a copyright regime that is strong enough that it allows nonfree software to exist but is also weak enough that it prevents creating an iron wall that prevents the use of software built by ideolgoical opponents of nonfree software from being used to advance nonfree software.
The secret to liking running isn't hard. You have to get good enough at it to where it isn't so painful. Just worked your way up to running 5k? That's great, but you probably still want to die at the end of the run.

When you can run 6+ miles EASILY (not necessarily fast), you can go on a 3 mile run and actually enjoy it. When you can run 10, 6 mile runs become casual and fun. 10 mild find still suck though, probably until you can easily run 15.

They only mention a lack of funds, but food is free everywhere.

The two exceptions is in war, where supplying food is often to hard. And mental illness where supplying food is sometimes too hard within the system.

> yet are still surviving (albeit with nutritional or other drawbacks)

This is the biggest issue around the world, it causes brain damage and early death to billions. Not the pressing issue in Lebanon.

Their language in the title is fine (it should include 'enough' money like UNICEF does), people understand the meaning, skipping meals, whether the 80% is click-bait is more of a question. But it is true Lebanon is in trouble and morally and for stability in the region needs help.

Read the real report - https://www.unicef.org/lebanon/media/6541/file
Yet the whole source is sitting on a closed-source software platform called GitHub, that also uses telemetry. (You know where this goes)

Outraged users creating issues about Audacity's privacy policy about telemetry [0] in their software probably haven't even read GitHub's privacy policy.

[0] https://github.com/audacity/audacity/issues/1213
Yes and you did no further research on your own since GitHub already said it's going to fix that (and a competent engineer would know it's trivial to fix that as well).
"moving your user-base" shows your bias here. The developer doesn't get to move their user base, the users get to decide what version of software they wish to run.

You don't need to perpetually run the latest release to "stay relevant". All of my workstations are still on Catalina and they're fine.
I mean we just recently had Trump tweet out a satellite photo that amazed civilian experts that such fidelity is even possible, let alone already deployed so I think you’re spot on.
> Software needs to reach out to the internet...

No, you stop. It absolutely does NOT need this functionality. Is it nice? sure. But it should be opt in and prompted, not opt out and automatic.

> that doesn’t work for crash reporting

It does.

> nor does it really work for auto-updating.

Good.

> The internet needs Javascript

No it doesn't. The ad economy depends on it to bypass consent. Do not confuse that with the ad economy requiring it to function nor does it mean the internet requires it. Again, is it useful? of course, there are many instances where it can (keyword can) enhance the experience, but it is not necessary for 99% of applications (no, your infinite scroll SPA is not a necessary function). Is it necessary? Absolutely not.

> and developers need automated feedback

No they dont.

The only things you're referring to are necessary for are forcing things by your users without their knowledge or consent, and for superfluous flair and form. It's possible to build opt-in, privacy respecting, informed consent software diagnostics and telemetry without forcing this nonsense on them, especially with respect to the topic at hand, which is not a web application, but an offline native desktop application.

OP posts with inverted condition: “OLAP != OLAP Cube” is the actual title.

I’d hate to think there’s some merit to restating this inequality, but there probably is. Legions have been indoctrinated into thinking Microsoft’s OLAP defined OLAP, or that a product was only OLAP if it had a (usually over-simple) cube structuring.

You’d have to look past vendor-specific or academic data-structure-and-algorithm-specific treatments to see a bigger picture. Erik Thomsen worked to spread a larger idea in the 1990’s and 2000’s, if you find his OLAP Solutions books or his articles in journals from that time.

Myself, I see the cube limitations on data modelling (semantic modeling for analytics being an actual passion) as being liftable with technology not available in 1993 when “OLAP” was coined.

You’re totally right. With dev demand, you probably don’t need a public GitHub profile unless you’re intentionally advertising your skill in a specific domain. You’ll surely be able to get a decent enough tech job with other quals. Of course if you want the highest chance of the ideal job, a public profile might help steer the right hiring managers in your direction.
Show a button to check for updates on any version timestamped older than X months where the button hasn't been clicked in a while. Show the button on the crash dialog. Don't open a single socket without approval. Let the user decide.

This is a fundamental principle of human interaction -- ask first before touching someone's stuff.
I completely disagree with your assessment, Audacity just crashed twice for me yesterday.

Also, with SQLite, it seems the major people reporting bugs are people who have paid support contracts with drh, which most likely requires sending identifying information.
"Yes, power users complain—and still continue using the site" I wonder what would happen after you removed old.reddit.com and api access for reddit apps. For icing on the cake, use creative class names to f*ck with RES and ad blockers. My guess, if you do all of this, reddit's gonna crash on the ground pretty quickly.

just ask the manager. Being in the office will reduce the availability of free croissants but if you can pull your weight, and you feel confident in that, just go for it.

Scalene is pretty neat, yes. The memory profiling, however, is more useful when you're trying to find memory leaks. This is a common scenario in web apps, say.

If your goal is to find peak memory usage, which is what you care about in data processing batch processes, Fil is probably a better choice (https://pythonspeed.com/fil).
Some schools still use a modified version, but I could’ve been way more clear about that. You’re right.
