It's not hypocrisy, rather the free market beliefs of Republicanism (at least as espoused) have been replaced by neo-Trumpist populism and its persecution complex about Marxist puppetmasters controlling the media.
True. Just an old habit.
Can you copy 10 lines of code from a open source project in your software? Yes you an, it's considered fair use. Nobody will ever sue for that. If it was, websites like StackOverflouw where developers post code probably taken by project with some restrictive license and other developer copy it in their projects would not exist.

Copilot will not write an entire software module, it will provide you with snippets. I see using GPL code for training fair use. If a developer reads the source code of a project to take inspiration and possibly copy some small parts does it violate the license?
The original goal of mRNA vaccine research was to fight cancer. After being so successful in immunizing against COVID-19, the research is refocusing on fighting cancer.

Quote: Ozlem Tureci, who co-founded the German company BioNTech with her husband, was working on a way to harness the body’s immune system to tackle tumors when they learned last year of an unknown virus infecting people in China. ... [T]he couple decided to apply the technology they’d been researching for two decades to the new threat. ...

As BioNTech’s profile has grown during the pandemic, so has its value, providing funds the company can use to pursue its original goal of developing a new tool against cancer.

“We have several different cancer vaccines based on mRNA,” said Tureci, who is BioNTech’s chief medical officer.

Asked when such a therapy might be available, Tureci said “that’s very difficult to predict in innovative development. But we expect that within only a couple of years, we will also have our vaccines [against] cancer at a place where we can offer them to people.”

https://www.timesofisrael.com/scientist-behind-pfizer-vaccin...

Quote: The vaccines that target tumor-associated or tumor-specific antigens (TAAs or TSAs) can specifically attack and destroy malignant cells that overexpress the antigens and achieve chronic therapeutic response because of immunologic memory. Therefore, cancer vaccines offer specific, safe, and tolerable treatment compared to other immunotherapies.

no, it's pretty basic, and implicit: it's the (newly-created) "Scalar Fixed-Point Compliancy Subset) - i added a bit to the wikipedia page last month about them https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_ISA#Compliancy

it's 64-bit, LE/BE, and it's implementing a "Finite State Machine" (similar technique to picorv32, if you know that design). this because we wanted to keep it REALLY basic, and also very clear as a Reference Design, none of the "optimised pipelined decoders and issuers" that you normally find, which make it really, really difficult to see what the hell is going on.

bear in mind this includes SVP64:

I currently do that job as a Data Architect - kind of a mouthful lol but it covers the gamut of understanding the entire business as an abstract set of data flows, being responsible for the ingest and outflows of data, the level of quality in our overarching system, managing data engineers, developers, business folks all accessing said data, at the end of the day explaining what it all means to our clients and devs via standard modeling stuff and more targeted things as needed.
I don't need evidence that the planet is warming, I need a cost/benefit analysis of what meaningful impact (if any) such "strong actions" could possibly have on this trend.

During the last century, CO2 emissions have been steadily rising year-over-year, in line with population growth across the globe. Given that this trend is now stalling naturally, the warming trend should follow suit. This leads me to the question: How bad is the "do literally nothing" scenario really?
I am not an expert on the field. But my hope was that this could be facilitated by Transfer Learning. Still don’t know how the scale economies could be achieved. Maybe just out of the sweat and network of passionate people like in the case of open source.
I don't think you're correctly understanding what is being asked for, and even if you do, I don't your analysis is correct.

First of all, nobody is asking for detailed instructions on how to produce all the parts from some base level. A schematic is only really going to show a level deeper. It would be plenty useful just knowing what connects where, and why. Meanwhile the actual knowledge to produce the part from scratch isn't even that useful in terms of repair unless the scale is rather massive.

Secondly, I'm not aware of any reason it would be so terribly illegal to tell somebody how to violate a patent. The whole point of the patent system is to let people know how to do exactly what the patent is for - but in exchange the creator gets a temporary legal means of preventing others from actually doing it. The actual means of violating a patent are inherently public - otherwise the patent could not exist in the first place.

So I have no idea how Qualcomm would sue anybody out of existence for telling people information that is already public. Of course this is limited to patents. There may be other aspects in play that would result in secret information that could not be distributed. But patents are not it.
No reason in particular. Qt has some easy to use widgets and is well documented. I've also some experience with Qt.
Not sure why this myth got any traction. It's not like housing prices are going down.
Haeff was something of a prodigy, looking at his other patents. E.g., a 3D volumetric laser scanner from 1964: https://patents.google.com/patent/US3636250A

Dude didn't let any grass grow under his feet, tech-wise.
But those industries make the stuff that makes our lifestyle possible.
The limiting factor is managed isolation. You can return if there are flights from where you are currently, but you need to secure a spot in managed isolation first (2 weeks in a hotel). https://www.miq.govt.nz/travel-to-new-zealand/secure-your-pl...
Cool. It’s like it has its own embedded clock pulses. Very nice.

First and foremost, I speak Croatian pretty well, which is a second language for me. I am working on French at the moment, and that is what I will be focused on for the next 1.5 years. After that, I will go on to learn German. But, a lot of people speak English in the European Union.

I also use nifty and unique tools like this, which helps me learn languages in my sleep (I use it for engineering coursework too!): https://github.com/Frederik-D-Weber/cosleep

I also wrote a script that creates 10,000 Anki flashcards: with the English (10,000 most commonly used words in English) and the corresponding Foreign word, IPA pronunciation (English and Foreign word), Text-to-Speech audio (for both the English and Foreign word), and a GIF image corresponding to each flashcard.

With respect to becoming conversational, this is the best tool: https://ai.glossika.com/

This is a good place to figure out good learning methods: https://forum.language-learners.org/

I should point out that you never need to go abroad to learn a foreign language. You can just find the cheapest person on italki who is a native speaker of your target language, and have a session with them, where you only speak words in the target language. That is the best way to learn.

But, this is the ultimate guide for learning a language. Basically, from there, it is a matter of finding inputs/outputs (materials to learn from) to work with in the foreign language: https://www.wgtn.ac.nz/lals/resources/paul-nations-resources...
As a native Californian, I'd be fine with more people moving out of California, especially the coastal areas. The surf spots are overcrowded compared to the days when I had the waves to myself.

Keep in mind, we have a political party with absolute power right now. So if you move here, you'll hear a lot of blaming the last govt, while not wanting to acknowledge that the current govt is doing this also and could easily change it.

Identity politics is alive and well in NZ as much as it is anywhere. Blame the politicians who were in power 5 years back.

So you can't really call it an aspiration when all major political parties here support the same model - only the lens of folks political affiliations is being covered here.

Copying/pasting code from open source projects it's considered fair use. Come on, who doesn't do that?

I mean, sure you don't copy an entire file, but you tend to copy a snippet, or in the end you look at how is done and you done the exact same way (that is the same of copying it!)

I would say there is not a problem in there.

Thanks for the consistent and thoughtful replies. It's been helpful for me as I think about these hot-button topics. I'll certainly leave here but will probably reference the thread for my own sake for some time to come; thanks again.
Been looking at housing in Wellington past couple of months. All but one of the houses we looked at were very old, never insulated, often pretty terrible places with few updates over their life. They were all 1.3-1.5m NZD for approximately 120-160 sqm. So think something like ~1m USD for ~1400sqft that then needs 200k USD to bring it up to US standards for insulation, to make it healthy and ensure your kids don’t get asthma, etc. I really can’t express the kind of miserable shape most of these houses were in. In the US many would be just sold as tear downs and replaced with something new.

The market here would in all normal respects be a bubble with average house prices now over 12x the average wage. The most unaffordable in the OECD I think. But the problem is the only thing NZers put their money into is housing. It’s treated as an investment where the goal is to build equity then use that to get the next house etc. This has been supported with very very low tax rates on property and no CGT on sales. (You pay a pathetic 0.25% tax on your property in Auckland.) On top of this poor policies have lead to not building enough housing for the growing population. So it’s unclear how it will resolve but it’s adding a lot of stress to the society, as half the population face a bleak future of housing insecurity and handing over most of their wages to live in bad conditions.
MiQ is free for citizens/permanent residents returning permanently home once (the rules are more complex than that but that's the essence, waivers are available for compassionate grounds) - so it's similar to what you suggest
How to use Lodash debounce method?
Except it's massively upvoted on Facebook and other platforms. Study after study has shown the most viral political stories with the most engagement align with conservative politics. So it's just not true that this censorship is pervasive. I think it's just a handful of cases of 'censorship', like Alex Jones and Trump, which have lead to actual violence violating obvious terms of service, that is all the right can point to.

But really it's bigger than that -- they need a new boogieman. Big tech is that because most of the winners from tech aren't the GOP-base, so it's easy to bash on. And banning Trump has got them all riled up even if there's no truth to the systematic bias beyond him specifically. In fact social media has largely propelled Trump and others into the spotlight in the first place.
If we could put together a job retraining package and general middle-america bailout package together we could avoid that.

But the Democratic constituency is isolated now geographically and across occupations so that they don't get any votes from something like that, and the Republicans will be happy to allow the pain to happen while preventing any support and milking the resentment.

So yeah, that's probably what will happen because of our dysfunctional government, but by no means is that an economic certainty.

Again, that is about as scientific as the antivaxxers.
You are correct, I must have made a dumb mistake in my mental calculations
The EU and UK GDPRs have these rules. In fact, they were in earlier data protection law as well.

Even if you don't understand or can't use (to your advantage) the rule on automated decision-making, you can still insist that data processing be "fair" - fairness is one of the fundamental rules of EU and UK data protection law, including in the current EU and UK GDPRs. Learn your rights!!

Why would you assume that? Without providing too much personal detail. I am 10 years+ of out undergrad, work for a large tech company, own property, and originally from the midwest. I consider my peer group diverse as I am a minority who grew up in a low income area but found success in college and consequently in my career.
This is what data engineers do, although that is also used to describe data ops (maintaining clusters, running kafka, etc.)
"Telemetry (which was opt-in and not merged), crash reporting, etc. do not make software non-free."

Collecting "telemetry" on minors, specifically under 13, without the minors' parents permission is illegal. In order to collect telemetry, they have to restrict the application's use to those over 13 (added to their privacy policy, for some reason, but I suspect that would not be satisfactory), which violates the "no restrictions on use" clause from the GPL.
The supply chain is a symptom, not the disease. Our hypothetical billionaire could close down (or increase prices, for the same effect), but his piece would either be grabbed by another ruthless business man wanting to be a billionaire or simply merged with the existing competitors. Unless you make people change their lifestyle, closing carbon-intensive production lines is just playing whack-a-mole. So, in reality, he really has not that much more power than you.

And yes, you as a consumer can make a large difference. You can choose to not eat meat, not drive a car, buy your clothes from eco-friendly shops and dedicate your life to make a change. It's just not as convenient as saying 'rich man bad'. People who try can change the world - see beyond meat and Tesla for success stories. Not doing so, but instead chasing a life of personal wealth and well-being is, simply stated, greed. With different amounts of money involved, sure, but the exact same greed. People starving in Africa do not have a choice, yes - but we do. We just choose to blame 'better connected' people because it's easy.

I fully agree with you, however, that lobbying for the wrong thing is definitely bad and something that can be done far more effectively by billionaires. Still, it does not absolve you from your own failures.
Due to dark patterns, I'd prefer to have it all banned. If you give corporations any kind of loophole they have shown that they're bad actors and will exploit it.
You've answered your own question. They went under the radar and nobody cared about them. They're not the multibillion company that sued Mike Rowe and keeps ReactOS developers awake at night.
The article you linked here says California’s population increased between the 2010 and 2020 census. The state lost a congressional district because other states grew faster.
You mention that you manage data engineers. Where does your role not overlap w/ a data eng?
Mueller’s report did not exonerate Trump. That was a lie spun by Bill Barr.

Mueller specifically did not make a statement on it because he determined it to be Congress’ job and especially because he did not want to put up an appearance of political prosecution.

He left it to Republicans in Congress to do the right thing but they failed to do so.
A handful of countries allow remote work on tourist visas - Canada, UK. The vast majority of countries including the US implicitly or explicitly prohibit any work on tourist visas.

ultimately what we'd like to see is entirely NDA-free PDKs even for 12nm and below, and you can run the VLSI tools and generate the EXACT GDS-II yourself, then yes, de-cap the processor and do a digital comparison.

before you even get to that stage, you run the Formal Correctness Proofs and unit tests on the HDL, so that YOU have confidence that the HDL which you're about to generate the GDS-II files from is actually correct and does the damn job.

example of a Formal Correctness Proof for the fixed arithmetic Power ISA pipeline:

https://git.libre-soc.org/?p=soc.git;a=blob;f=src/soc/fu/alu...

runs with symbiyosys, so you end up running SAT Solvers like yices2 and z3.

basically we absolutely do not want to be the people you come to and say, "can we trust your ASIC?" and like Intel they lie to you and say "of course!", we want to say, "don't bloody well ask us, go run the damn tools yourself! oh, btw, if you want help with that we charge USD 5k per hour"
That video is of such poor quality that it's hard to determine anything from it. Yes, a tractor hit a barrier, flipped, and caught fire. Unclear why it hit the barrier. Did the driver intentionally run it into the barrier? Did the police shoot him and then the tractor continued on into the barrier?

Not saying it wasn't the simple explanation, but that video is not really evidence of anything either way.
What makes you believe temperature isn't accellerating? CO2 in the atmosphere won't go away on its own for hundreds of years, and trapping more and more heat will have exponential effects leading to chaotic climate instability. CO2 is not declining, even in the pandemic year it is still rising sharply way beyond extreme levels for tens of thousands of years: https://www.co2levels.org/

I was pretty sure the electrolytic capacitor would be the first component to fail. They are usually the first thing to age and fail in normal supplies and here they are also subjected to high temperature.

Good caps are expensive and cheap Chinese engineering guarantees that even if you find one marked 130C it is unlikely to be truth.

The idea that only uncivilized societies allow for public nudity is an ignorant and self-perpetuating colonialist stereotype.
Not wanting eg your wife to see a penis, especially a feminine woman's penis, is laughably insecure at best, and bigoted and hateful at worst.
Similarly, not wanting your assumed daughter to see a penis is harmful to her (or potentially his) emotional growth, and should be considered borderline child abuse.
I think the myth is self sustaining. 200,000 more people leaving than Texas makes California look 50% worse. Ignoring the larger population is easy/accidental in many discussions.
This is simply not absolutely correct, only conditionally so.

The only way in which

"Tarzan"|(Tarzan)

extracts a Tarzan that is not in quotes is when it is used for scanning the input for non-overlapping matches.

(We know from lexical analysis with regexes, a form of non-overlapping extraction, that the "Tarzan" token is different from a Tarzan token. An identifier won't be recognized if it is in the middle of a string literal.)

It's not the regex itself, but a particular way of using it.

If the regex is used for finding all maximally long matching substrings, then it won't work. It will find "Tarzan" and it will find the Tarzan also within those quotes.

Notably, the regex will also fail if it is used to find a single match, like the leftmost. If the datum is a string like

"Tarzan", said Jane; Tarzan turned.

then the leftmost "Tarzan" will be found, and that's it. The regex will not find the leftmost Tarzan that is not wrapped in quotes.

We cannot even use this to simply grep files for lines that have Tarzan that is not in quotes.
Is depression good of bad for the economy?
Is depression good of bad for business?

There are many reasons why it's good, escapism for one: who doesn't want to reward themselves after a crappy day by buying something they don't need, with money they don't have, to impress people they don't like? So that can facebook it or tweet it or IG it. Vacations, cars, clothes, fancy restaurants.....

On the other hand, a lot of entrepreneurs wannabes can't get past the risk of not having a steady income, or being ridiculed by family, friends, and peers (depression's cousin anxiety would do that), and all those insecurities and sense of doom is not good to start something, to give light to the multitude of ideas in someone's creative head.

So, is depression good or bad for the economy?
that was seriously strange pacing
