This is why I'm keeping an offline digital music collection for the first time in over a decade, it's because I'm sick of this kind of behaviour from record labels. Their attitudes of deleting things on a whim as though they never existed pissed me off to the point I don't see streaming services as a viable means of keeping my music any more.

IP fees give investors a return on investment that, in turn, encourages more investment in IP and thereby advances the state of the art. If you have a problem with that, take it up with the US Patent Office and nobody else.
If the restaurant has to pay, it's a cost like any other and they charge accordingly. They can do that because all restaurants are charging a bit more because they all have to pay. That's no different to minimum wages or 101 other expenses.

Personally I'd prefer it to be funded via taxation. That's what almost every other western country does. The effect is the same either way though: people pay a few cents more per meal and employees get parental leave and we all get on with our lives.

> Would you dramatically expand what you can legally borrow without infringing or just allow wholesale automated washing from one copyright to another?

You're acting like we don't already have something similar. We do. It's called fair use. (: I'd probably just expand on that. If the portion of the work generated by a model is insubstantial, and/or doesn't harm the interests of the original rights holder then it should be okay.

If your model can generate a single excerpt of Harry Potter does that constitute harm to J.K. Rowling? Can you use it to reasonably generate a substantial portion of the book with it? Is it a reasonable substitute for buying the book? No? Then it's okay.

Some countries in fact do already have such exceptions, e.g. Japan amended its copyright law in 2018 to explicitly allow for this. To quote the relevant law:

> "It is permissible to exploit work in any way and to the extent considered necessary ...where such exploitation is not for enjoying or causing another person to enjoy the ideas or emotions expressed in such work..."

So if you want to train an ML model on a bunch of commercial novels, without the permission of their owners, and then exploit that commercially - you can do it, and it's completely legal.
> I'd like to get some recognition for 10+ years of experience, but for now I'm just "a developer". At the same time I see job openings for senior developers asking for only three years of experience.

I think the trick is to find a company to hire you and convince them to bump you to "senior developer", even on paper. All that matters is the title, because once you get it, you can put it on your résumé and apply directly for that role, and other companies won't be asking much questions. Repeat for principal developer, but keep in mind the risk of not being able to find an actual coding job.

> I don't know how it is in the US, but over here it's really hard to find good developers, let alone ones that are willing and able to stick with one company for a longer period of time, so you really need to get people on a 'lower' level up to your level.

US is still vacuuming up software talent from all other the world. Anecdote: of my real-life software developer friends and acquaintances, a good half of those I consider to be good developers are either working for FAANG or running a startup and either receiving or applying for YC funding.

As for sticking with one company, this won't be solved while typical raises are non-existent. If the choice is ~2% per year of raise vs. 50-400% salary increase by jumping ship, good developers will keep jumping ship until they're either comfortable or hit some salary ceiling.

Another point I tentatively bring up is, career growth opportunities tend not to be aligned with retaining good developers. Take a look at Dropbox's Career Framework, currently on the frontpage[0], or any other typical SWE leveling system. Senior+ is frequently no longer software development, but management in disguise. In other words, for software developers who want to get better at the technical aspects, career ends at the senior level. At this point, it's only sane to jump to a company that will at least pay more.

This is something I frankly don't understand: a senior software developer is roughly the level where you can call a programmer competent. It's also a level where companies want them to stop programming and start managing juniors. This feels like a huge waste in terms of productivity, letting someone gain proficiency in a skill, and then prevent them from using it. But I guess the market likes it that way, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

Astonishing that a mere corporation thinks they have the right to negotiate with a nation-state and "come to an agreement."

>(Honestly I don't really believe in copyrighting news facts, but at this point it's just nice to see Google get fined.)

It's disturbing to see how people support bad practices just because they are used against Google. Do you hate Google THAT much that nothing matters if they are hurt?
Why not? Any government with a sufficiently large market has the giant corporations by the short and curlies. Just keep fining them, it’s free money and what are they going to do? Exit the French market? Lol. Just an import tariff by another name.

You can not take the source code of an app, change a few lines, and then call it your own. You can however make your own app by stealing a few lines of code here and there... funny enough many companies write code so that all functions depend on all other functions making it impossible to reuse any parts of the code in another app (but i think that is not deliberate)
I don't feel any love for main stream media, but it's super nice to see a big fine to the IMO crappy company Google that clearly deserves it.

> but with a larger population, any adverse effects are likely to be noticed.

With time. Not every problem shows up immediately.

I'm vaccinated but I respect some people who decided against it.

My logic is easy enough to explain: the virus have bigger known side effects than the vaccine and I have personally no reason to belive that there won't be even more and bigger unknown unknowns with the virus than with the vaccine.

Not blindly trusting governments, media and big pharma however doesn't sound crazy to me. After all the worst crimes and crimes against humanity haven't been done by catholic inquisitors or the armed neighbor next door but by governments, and typically not in active war but in steady state after occupation or even typically by the country people belong to.

As for media: how anyone here can trust anyone of them blindly is beyond me. I actively support some of them but I always try to ask myself what really happened.

This is a very niche case, though, maybe 1% of cars, at best. It doesn't apply to mass market cars.
It seems that they want a smooth random vector field. Why don't they build that, which is easy to do? Why do they want, specifically, a field of angles? You cannot average angles, and smooth noise, being computed by local averaging, is not going to work well for angles. But you can average vectors.
The example he uses isn't the best though. Unless your product is about identity or have other special circumstances, you should absolutely not implement your own login system. It's a lot more complicated than what the article suggest: security, _proper_ hashing, forgot your password, change password, change email, password strength, MFA, privacy, compliance, social logins are just a few things/flows coming to my mind that are standards today. Implementing these instead of focusing on the relevant features of the application is very rarely the right decision.
I also don't really get how this works, it's a lease. In my country a lease includes all payments except fuel. That means the car, the insurance, the taxes. If anything happens (outside of you wilfully ramming the car into something), it's covered by the lease. The car company makes sure to get insured and may seek payout from their insurance company, but you're not involved.

That puts the onus on the car company to look for the cheapest but most effective maintenance and repairs. If they're routinely paying $16k for an $800 repair, the average cost of tesla leases would go up by a bit to the point they're not competitive in lease pricing versus others who get it done for the $800.

And any car manufacturer which creates a system that inflates repair prices for whatever reason, would be similarly unfavourable for leasing.

If this was a personal car, very different story. Now you have an individual getting screwed 75% of the cost of the car for a minor plastic replacement, with no recourse. Here you need right to repair.

But for lease companies it all averages out, lease prices are positioned based on that average, and if the average is consistently high, Tesla is just disqualifying themselves from the market. There's no need for a legal framework to solve that when there's plenty of market incentives already.

But somehow for this guy it wasn't covered, but the solution seems to me not to have right to unlicensed repair of a car that another company owns, but rather that the lease contract (particularly insurance coverage) was poor and should've had coverage for stuff like this. That responsibility lies with the consumer, but because insurance can be technical and hard to understand, I'm entirely in favour of more mandatory insurances for consumer protection. But that's often not a popular take on HN. (we just had a discussion a week ago about mandatory insurance being too high in the US).

Pretty much as long as it's not completely unreasonable.

Bad practices are used by american mega corporations all the time, it is nice to see them get a dose of their own medicine.
I have been part of such initiatives in other organizations. The language is deliberately imprecise to give managers room to maneuver. It is also set to unattainable standards to make it easy to justify why someone is not getting promoted.

Appraisals are always highly subjective and frameworks like these are simply ways for the company to build a narrative of meritocracy and fairness. It's arguable how well it works though, because people generally see through such charades. But for some reason it's taboo to admit the inherent subjectivity in this process.
This looks like a fine punishing Google for not agreeing to pay a large amount of money for snippets. I’m guessing good faith to the regulators would mean giving in to the news agencies demands.

* Those cheap ESP32 boards all implement the exact same transistor based reset for DTR/RTS, they all work with `idf.py monitor`

* There are many options for ESP32 dev boards with an entire external antenna

All that leaves is... the LDO? Brownouts are solved by power caps, or a shorter USB cable. Or providing external power over VIN. Is that really worth double the price?

Like, if you're shipping it in a product you're probably not using a dev board (I hope you're not)

If you're just developing a prototype or tinkering, this is just like Arduino boards. High price, questionable benefit.

If you need extremely low power usage, get a plain module and one of the breakouts that lets you choose the LDO.

The high level seems to be "Our newspapers are struggling because of the rise of the internet. Google isn't French, is a big internet player and nobody likes them, so we're holding them responsible".

The detail has been 'found' to match that high level sentiment.

Well... if it gets a few people to learn more about this topic then that's serious enough for me. Many have very strong opinions about energy and fossil fuels, but few really understand what they're talking about. For example they don't understand that natural gas is actually a very potent greenhouse gas and he's doing the world a favor by burning it. On a larger scale, we could certainly do more to stop methane from reaching the atmosphere, where it's economical.

> Christians of every era have their political goals too. And of course, claimed to own peace, equality and justice.

Christianity has been fairly expressly political for most of its history post-Constantine, and the divisions between different Christian subgroups have often turned more on the political divisions than any notional theological divides.

> The question is whether the mass movement and the institutional and cultural mass are even ‘aware of’ let alone ‘coordinating for’ these political ambitions.

And the answer is, quite clearly, that yes, they are.

> Contrast this with union activity, the temperance movement, civil rights era – etx.

And…what? I’m rather deeply familiar with all of those — while I’m currently working in technology, this is actually the domain that I studied deeply. The division you are drawing is absolutely without any substance whatsoever.

> This ‘identity-fist politics’ is not a politics; its a religious awakening for a new era of identity.

That is no more true than it was of the rise of labor unionism or the civil rights movements, which had an equally “religious” (and quite often overtly religious, as well) character…and an equal focus of political objectives.

The dichotomy you are trying to draw is bogus.

> You will no doubt find genuine politics going on, and evangelists like Colbert appearing to champion them – but this isnt a political awakening. It isnt the 20s or 60s.

Well, sure, if I were comparing the modern BLM movement, for instance, to the Civil Rights movement, I would compare it more to the mid-1950s than the 1960s. But that’s not a difference of degree of political nature of the movement, but degree of political leverage that comes from successful mobilization around a broad concept that brings the power to not merely have a variety of competing political demands within a movement subordinate to the broad problem statement, but actually be in a position to have the leverage to be in a position to implement them.

M4BL itself fairly explicitly acknowledges this (without the historical comparison): “Our movement and Black communities are not currently in a position to set agendas to scale, control the institutions that affect our lives, or create mechanisms to mitigate harm. This assessment should not be interpreted as a failure of our social movements, but it does expose a critical gap. We have created a popular strategy to guide us through the next five years; it is rooted in transformative goals that can impact the millions of Black people looking for direction and leadership in this moment. Chiefly, Black governance and ultimately positioning our communities to set agendas sits at the heart of M4BL Project 2024: Black Power Rising.” [https://m4bl.org/black-power-rising/]

> They are there to demand respect for their newly minted identities.

The idea that black identity is a novel development of the recent activist movement is amusing, but ludicrously false; even the broad outline of the substantive political demands aren’t, mostly, new. All that is new is the sense of urgency for political and institutional change change.
