>> I don't know many parents whose goal is for our children to learn to fight.

Try asking parents whose kids do karate. I’m guessing a large number of them will say “self defence”, especially parents of girls.
I suspect there are at least a couple of reasons unrelated to her music (which I admittedly don't know much about myself) why she gets particularly disliked - the fact that Lennon had been part of one of the, if not the, greatest bands of all time, and her influence is blamed for Lennon going off in the musical directions he did, plus I imagine a bit of racism (conscious or unconscious) also comes into play for some people, especially decades ago when she was most relevant.
Meanwhile interns and junior developers apparently have to handle the bulk of hiring and job interview work. No wonder people complain about the quality of job interviews.
Here's my favorite thing I saw with a cheaper board: Lilygo/TTGo makes a number of boards with built in Eink displays. Eink is awesome for many reasons, one of which is that the display only uses power when you're actively changing what it shows.

Should be great for low power applications, right? NOPE! First off, their official docs were totally wrong about what battery connector the board had. Then it turns out that the board has horrible power consumption during sleep, which is only partially mitigated by melting off the always-on power LED.

Adding insult to injury, the voltage regulator on the board is actually one that was intended for portable battery packs. When current draw goes below a certain level for 5 minutes, the voltage regulator just turns off. Any attempt to deep sleep for more than 5 minutes causes the board to commit suicide.

As a healthy, 30 something year old living in the UK the only reason I took the vaccine (both doses) was in the civic duty which said that once a certain percentage of the population was done, then restrictions could end. Now it looks like that's kinda happening in a week but even so the BMA and others are calling this irresponsible and there's an unsaid expectation of further lockdowns. I'm really starting to wonder why I bothered with the vax. This will just go on and on.

It can't be violating if it's not a derived work, and if courts conclude that the output of an ML model isn't derivative of its training material (which is, I understand, the current situation in the US) then it doesn't matter how similar it looks to some other code.

A lot of the comments around Copilot seems to be under the impression that courts care about how you "write" your code.

This.

Ianal but I feel pretty sure that the content of the work is what is in question, not how it was created with regards to copyright. I think wikipedia more or less says this:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyright_infringement#Limitat...
The majority of public repositories on Github aren't "open source" - there's no associated license that grants you any right to use or modify the code. Copilot is trained on them regardless.
Wait, if you don’t want either product ownership (ergo responsibility outside of coding) or higher pay, what exactly do you want?
> Similarly, the “Batterygate” throttling was arguably in the best interests of the customer because a phone that performs poorly is more useful than a phone that doesn’t work at all.

> as long as they don’t pull a Volkswagen and send un-throttled hardware to reviewers or anything like that.

Well the problem there is that you couldn't know that the experience shown in reviews would disappear over time. It's not expected for working hardware to perform worse and worse over time.

> The reviews will say “Facebook is a little sluggish but battery life is great”, and whether that’s because of hardware capabilities or throttling is one of many implementation details that I don’t need to be concerned about.

Reviewers only have so much time. It shouldn't be "buyer beware, sorry if the reviewers didn't find every land mind that affects you".

> Volkswagen

Did they even send different hardware? The trigger conditions for the cheat were so precise that they didn't need to. Surely that wouldn't excuse the cheating though, right?

Right, but this cannot be the end of the story. We cannot allow people's life chances getting crippled by an all powerful oligopoly for nothing more than clumsy choice of words.

>These companies are trying to protect average people from being scammed on their services, and I would honestly prefer they keep doing this

Really? That's what you wish for? Deplatforming for life without any due process to determine whether the person has actually done anything wrong? I cannot believe that anyone really wants this.
Not having children is not a major societal problem, it would actually solve them. Many of the largest problems in the world would be fixed by a smaller human population. Food, housing scarcity, climate change...

Then what about the gap that will now emerge between men who have kids and have been forced to take leave, and the people who have not had kids? Is that a gap that doesn't matter simply because it doesn't show up in gendered statistics but is instead hidden?

I am extremely against enforced handicaps on people as a way to achieve equality. I can't think of precedent where this has led to anything positive (I'm reminded of the Harrison Bergeron short story as a write this). If the man (or woman) can afford childcare, then why should the government force them out of the workforce, exactly who is benefiting from this handicap?

So this is Amazon rip-off (legal one, obviously) of the last Elasticseartch version having Apache license...

On the one hand, this is ok. Free software is taken and extended by someone who wants to do this... Yet, I am not sure if in that particular case this follows the spirit of the free software.

This move will probably kill company behind Elasticsearch sooner or later. Amazon is making money not on selling particular piece of software but on selling hosting of it. So they gladly give OpenSearch "for free".

Elasticsearch company produced pretty great product, they wanted to earn some bucks on additional features (I think alerts were only in paid version) and cloud hosting for rather reasonable price. And here came AWS, took their product to sell it as their own. This does not sound fair.

Long term consequences of this kind approach from big players are going to be bad. We will get less free software since everyone who wants to develop new product of this kind will have a choice:

- start with more restrictive license (like AGPL) and risk that nobody will even look on their new product
- start with "business-friendly" license like Apache, MIT and risk that if their product will become popular and profitable it will be cannibalized by AWS, etc.

I wish Elasticsearch people good luck, hopefully, with the competitive pricing and ability to work faster/leaner on their product they will survive, they definitely deserve that.
Yes this. Most of us like to think we're special and hard to replace and some are harder than others to replace but we can all be replaced. Can the replacement do as good a job as you ? Who knows, could be same/better/worse and without access to the multiverse you will never know.

As you say figure out what you care about the most and double down on that if you can.
Right - whereas I find this the most exciting series of things I get to do, by far. It's always a game of hunt the wocket - especially when you're trying to not just hack a solution together.
Yep.

So we either 1) declare this to not be copyright infringement, or 2) basically outright outlaw training of interesting ML models.

I personally believe that (1) is the way to go, and I find the whole outrage about Copilot to be essentially akin to collectively shooting ourselves in the foot in the long run.

I think we shouldn't forget why copyright exists in the first place. To quote the copyright clause of the US constitution (emphasis mine):

> "*To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts*, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries."

If anything we already went too far with how draconian modern copyright enforcement is, up to the point that it often actively hampers our progress. Please don't make it even worse!
This has changed a lot over recent decades (in the UK.)

My eldest son is nearly 30.

When we were expecting him, his mother was suddenly `managed out` of her job in IT working on GCOS7 systems; no problems whatsoever until she was pregnant.

When I told my boss (again in IT) I needed to plan in a weeks annual leave, he was clear that he was pissed off and fed up about it, because we were busy doing some technology transition.

Three decades later; I cheerfully cover for colleagues taking a couple of weeks of extra paid paternity leave.

My own archaic view about paternity leave is that it is designed for female equality; which I believe is a good thing.
New challenges? Opportunities to make a positive impact? Mentorship and management experience? Increased autonomy or flexibility?
Big companies have to put these kinds of frameworks in place to ensure they’re treating everyone equally. Otherwise you end up with the absurd situations of two different people being rewarded differently despite performing the same job equally well merely because they have a different manager.

The downside is everyone becomes a cog in the machine, with nobody being treated like an individual with their own strengths, weaknesses, needs, fears, and aspirations.
Didn't even know this exists, I just use AirPrint.
I'm not saying we should ignore GPL violations. I'm saying we should consider whether the greater benefit for free software would be in them not being violations in the first place.
>Purpose-built cameras can see better in the dark than humans can.

Define "see better".

Human eyes have way more dynamic range (30 f stops) than even the best cinema camera sensors (14 f stops), and I highly doubt the sensors Tesla use are anywhere close to the gigantic expensive sensors used in cinema cameras and are most likely closer to the sensors in your mobile phone (11 f stops).

So no, no camera sensor can currently match the human eye, let alone the image processing and cognition our brains do on top.

There's no evidence that education degrees make teachers more effective. If an entire degree in pedagogy has no detectable effect on student outcomes how can it help become a competent teacher?

> It's easier to pick a good teacher than to train one: Familiar and new results on the correlates of teacher effectiveness

> Neither holding a college major in education nor acquiring a master's degree is correlated with elementary and middle school teaching effectiveness, regardless of the university at which the degree was earned. Teachers generally do become more effective with a few years of teaching experience, but we also find evidence that teachers may become less effective with experience, particularly later in their careers. These and other findings with respect to the correlates of teacher effectiveness are obtained from estimations using value-added models that control for student characteristics as well as school and (where appropriate teacher) fixed effects in order to measure teacher effectiveness in reading and math for Florida students in fourth through eighth grades for eight school years, 2001-2002 through 2008-2009.

Reading about this concept for the first time truly expanded my ability to understand the world. Another worthy addition to "Things That Should Actually Be Taught in Schools" type lists.

However I see a missing element in the usual commentary. The error (or bias) goes both ways, yet only one is emphasised. To quote the article: "most people don’t take the power of circumstance seriously enough" (in regards to understanding other people). This bodes well with the popular notions that "We are all the same", and "Everyone can do anything if just given the chance".

Yet the flip side is also valid: Not taking into account the power of disposition when looking at one self (or one's tribe). For example, the reason I just cut in line is because I am, at least somewhat, generally a jerk. This obviously is a harder pill to swallow and perhaps more fatalistic, but perhaps just as important to increasing world (and inner) peace: I should give Others a break, not only because they might be faced with circumstances that I perhaps am not, but equally because I might actually be just as much of an a*hole as I perceive them to be.
The children probably benefit from having their parents around.
This is the question of launching a conventional fission reactor into space. Nobody just needed 10MW of electric power at space yet.

Of course, a nuclear reactor produces heat, not electricity directly, so we're limited by the Carnot cycle, and will need large radiators, defeating some of the mass savings. OTOH space is very cold, and a suitable gas can be made to work with a seriously higher temperature difference than practical on Earth, giving better utilization of the heat.
OTOH reaching the asteroid belt and Jupiter in reasonable time is only possible with non-chemical rockets, and nuclear fission power is the only realistic option now.

Is seems like a new trend for right wing ideas to be expressed in what would traditionally be considered left-wing concepts and language.

Does that mean they lost the culture war or is it just a new phase?
Pharma regulators in many countries recognize testing done by selected other countries. It's called "mutual recognition" in the lingo.
The parent posters point is actually agreeing with you I think?

Other countries mandate these leaves and spread them out as social programs, and therefore the small companies in those countries ARE able to function - because the costs are spread out.

In the US that is not the case, because the spreading of costs and mandating of leaves isn’t universal, and they can’t afford to take it on themselves.
Good question - ask them.

I’ve had exceptional coders who were able and willing to make valuable contributions to the codebase, but needed to spoonfed the requirements. Maybe success in your team is a sense of ownership, in which case that person may not be right for your team - and that’s ok.

I am on parental leave right now together with my wife. Financially it's OK- we had some time to prepare.
The most basic issue is breastfeeding. A newborn wants to drink about every two hours. My wife just can't leave the house if she wants to breastfeed. Bottled up milk is an option when the child is about 4 months old.

At this stage the bond between them both is so thick, that they are basically inseparable. As man you basically spend a whole year to catch up.

So even with enough money and leeway from my employer to take parental leave there are still issues why childcare is mainly the part of the mothers.
I guess most of the feminists don't have children. Oh and try to have two children. Guess what: it does not scale well! And it takes more than two persons to even raise one child.
I would encourage you all to try it yourself. It is really rewarding to be a parent and also so exhausting - even with all the privileges in the world.
Sorry you feel that way. I admit I am extremely cynical of humanity.

I don't necessarily only think this about the underprivileged. More like the uneducated and the credulous. This included all manner of Republicans. They put out confusing information, say that there's fake news. And the underprivileged don't know what to do. Despite almost every single person in the USA knowing for sure that all infectious disease and epidemiologist say to take the vaccine. Everyone knows this. Every single person, every single underprivileged person knows this after 1 1/2 years.

I understand that not everyone is as cynical as I am, so feel free to have your own view of how the world runs.
Well that supposes that they currently exist, that they're close enough and that they want to come here.

I was about to say the same, as this is also my observation. There are good science papers and there are science papers as a business.
Elastic are a $13 billion company. They get little sympathy from me.

They built that value off the back of many other open source products, and with help from the community - all under licenses like Apache 2.0 and MIT.

And now, after building all that value by selling Enterprise and SaaS versions of the software, they decided to specifically target their competitor who was doing the exact same thing.

Without Lucene, there would have been no ElasticSearch. Why does ElasticSearch get to take all the hard work done by Lucene contributors and sell it as part of their own product? This does not sound fair... in the terms you put it.

If this hurts Elastic, they did it to themselves. They don't deserve your support.

It doesn’t actually work that way - family can and will consume 100% of your time, just like work can. And some people can and will pick one of them and do just that.

Probably need to think through the concrete use cases for "handle".

e.g. if there are requirements related to tracking issues in some uniform way in software projects that have a many:many relationship with source repos, a possible solution is to use some other system for issue tracking, don't try to track issues in github.

If there's a requirement to uniformly configure access controls / branch protection etc to hundreds of git repos, you could use terraform or roll your own automation using the github API combined with whatever you can enforce at the github org level.

Commoditiy prices indices – 12 months change
The issue is market effects. If there is one company offering paternity leave, and one which doesn't, which one can offer cheaper prices? If both companies have to offer paternity leave, they are both in the same situation. Still however, one employee becoming pregnant is often a big problem for very small companies, because the effect is highly discretized. If you have 5 employees, then a pregnant employee means 20% of your company's workforce is gone. So you really need social programs that pay instead of the employer during the time of the absence.
40 hours work, 54 hours sleep, 7h commute, 5 hours lunch at work, 7 hours breakfast and dinner, 4 hours cooking, 2 hours cleaning, 3 hours personal hygiene, 1 hour grocery shopping... the list of "non family" activities is pretty long.
