> If i take the license literally, why wouldn't my db password be considered part of the derrived work?

Configuration is just a short artifact. It's not a creative work and is therefore not copyrightable at all, whether by AGPL or otherwise.

> if there is a security issue and it has an emergency patch but there is some coordinated disclosure going on so its not public yet, is this an agpl violation?

No because:

- if you are coordinating with the developers, then you have their explicit permission to temporarily withhold those changes (AGPL copyright holders can still grant exceptions to the license)

- AGPL does not mean you must provide up-to-date source code in an automated matter; you have to be able to provide the source code upon request, and there's nothing in the license preventing any forms of delays (much less so for ensuring security of users)

> antispam stuff tends to benefit from security through obscurity. Can i embed antispam checks directly in the agpl source without revealing

I'm not convinced obscurity helps against spam at all. DKIM and blocklists have done much more against email spam than any form of "security by obscurity" corporate scheme has.

However, if the logic is separate from the configuration, you would have to publish the edited source code (the logic), but could retain the actual configuration (because once again, configuration is not copyrightable).

> First being a separate subject is already merely a concept.

Maybe, but being vaporized by an energy discharge is not merely a concept.

> And second the idea of dying carries all kind of baggage that clearly does not exist when being transported

"clearly does not exist" ... in the make-up TV show which need this prop.

The "no baggage" is a bit like how people in cults can commit mass suicide - believing they're not really dying, but rather being transported into heaven or something along those lines.

The property rights absolutist solution would be to build a wall on publicly owned land blockading the private property and reducing its value to nothing and then buying it from the owner at its new market price of zero.

When this happens in real life they can apply to the government for an easement, but that's practically communism, so we wouldn't allow that in this thought experiment.

Decent analysis.

Volkswagen recently invited Tesla to their executive meet up for some advice. Current Quarter results proves the analysis incorrect. I was a Tesla sceptic. Not any more.
Your consciousness is just a matter of the combination of your braincells. So yes, you die, a copy of yourself emerges somewhere else. But the copy will have exactly my memories from before transport. So for anyone else there is no difference. But you, the original, dies (you get vaporized).

I would only use it if my copy and his memories get merged into mine after he is done. Or if I could take over my remote copy by VR, so it is more like an avatar.

There's a practical benefit that it leads to seamless Bitlocker deployment without making users manage keys or do things that would lead them to prefer to not have Bitlocker.

That definitely counts for a lot. It's just a shame that they can't let that stand on its own with their current marketing.
No need for that, Google Safe Browsing exists if they want to.

If you don't even know the basics, why do you think you can talk about more advanced things?

First, learn the basics of the trade: reading and writing code efficiently and painlessly... then you can think about high level architecture or whatever makes you feel more important. I see a lot of people who think they know the former but they can't even find a definition without clicking through some GUI menus, which takes 10x more time than if they'd just learned a couple of shortcuts. This is what is really going to compound over time, as you do this hundreds of times a day.

Besides, the author addressed your criticism in the second paragraph: _There's a lot more than just writing code that goes into being an effective software developer..._

Unfortunately the necessary discussion about the obvious flaws of this movie will be drowned by the hype which has been going on for years. I guess nobody wants to admit that they've been wrong or maybe the pictures count for more now.

I fell for it too. I hyped with the rest and recommended the movie to people who have not read it before I watched the movie. This was a mistake and the drinks were on me afterwards while I had to explain the actual story...

As I said above, you can't really keep a critical mass - and therefore keep safe - without ignoring some traffic laws. I'd be interested to know (genuinely, this isn't just rhetoric) how you'd conceive of something like this happening "in a coordinated and legal manner".
I am completely, 100% on board with what these people are doing and hope they find much joy.

What gives me pause is the certainty that these stylings will not scale. Once the populatione exceeds Dunbar's Number[1], a management layer must needs precipitate, and the Iron Law of Oligarchy[2] will kick in. Inevitably.

The notion that cool ideas like this can apply to large, non-self-selecting populations is a bugaboo.

It's correct. Omission means 2021-10-2411:02:03Z, not replacing it with a space instead.
As a hypothesis go, it’s worth stating, but only since it leads directly to a conservation-of-mass problem and is therefore disproved by contradiction, a problem that Tenet does not encounter (it has its own problems of course, most obviously causality issues from the conflation of pataphysical outcomes with thermodynamic constraints).

Therefore neither are the original Riker, which was evidently terminated in the most horrifying fashion the first time it stepped into a transporter beam.

My experience using Firefox for a long-ass time has been marred with seemingly arbitrary changes that have frustratingly broken my workflow, since way back when they redesigned the URL bar in Firefox 2 and complaints were met with an irreverent "sucks to be you I guess."

It's made me reduce the amount of features I use in Firefox because I feel I can't trust the features will be there anymore or work the same in the next release.

Often the benefits are small, and the changes seem to be for the sake of changing things rather than to bring tangible improvements.

Workflow-breaking changes are incredibly frustrating for the user, and something a mature project should only do with extreme reluctance. Yet Firefox seems to do it haphazardly.

I would honestly be happy to use a browser that looked and worked like Netscape 1.0 as long as it supported modern web standards and didn't keep moving buttons around.
Huge benefits.
That is not my only criticism, but it was the most relevant one. Also, the issue is not that they get money from Google, it is that it is almost all of their revenue. I think Brave has a fair chance of surviving without Google, though your point of their lack of manpower stands.

I don't think Firefox will have many good options for generating revenue, given that they have lost 46 million users since 2018 [1] (while paying something like $2M to the chair [2]). And the only effort they made in that direction was is to become a VPN reseller [3].

So that should also be in the dashed circle.
The difference being that the transporter (in that universe - if it were not TV series) is a fact not an unprovable possibility or even fiction you choose to believe in. So no, it‘s not like a mass suicide.

I assume majority of people want a secure platform where they can run apps/games, without worrying about ransomware and malware.

For those few that want to test things or run custom drivers, they can still disable driver signature enforcement, but some features/apps might be unavailable in this mode.

I like to think that technology like this is indeed as cruel as truly killing you, but that the implication is overlooked due to the transported clone being able to attest that they indeed survived the journey, and that there is no dead Kirk to say otherwise.

And for pragmatic reasons, a spacefaring society would ofcourse be very happy to have technology like this, and very disinclined to abandon it. Furthermore, as much as humans tend to speak highly of the value of life, if the victims of such a machine are completely silenced and their relatives see no difference, this is an easy dark bargain for humanity to make.

What I'm saying is that there is likely no scientific uncertainty about machines like teleporters killing the original, but that human society simply accepts and hides this fact under the rug. We are good at ignoring uncomfortable side effects, when they have no direct impact on us. (until you're the one standing in a teleporter for the first time, facing the social pressure of either calling everyone else a clone and a fake, or taking the teleportation yourself)

What there is instead is a strong cultural established norm that teleporters do infact not kill you, and that this cultural norm is upheld for more or less pragmatic reasons. A false but useful-for-society cultural norm.

On the trope of the "wiser and kinder aliens", I would imagine that if a machine like this were to exist in any other universe than Star Trek (idk about Star Trek aliens that much tbh, they seem like humans cultures more or less), there would definitely be alien societies that have discovered teleportation but would not for a second consider teleporting living objects of importance, let alone themselves. Because they could be more thorough with the philosophical implications of the machine and less inclined like us, to hide it under the rug.
Labor Under Socialism: Debunking Capitalist Lies
Agree with the ignorance for attribution demands. Apache 2.0 is also everywhere yet nobody takes it seriously (it demands a lot!) and just treats it like the 1-clause BSD license.
The spec permits more than 4 digits for 'year' by mutual agreement. This is called 'expanded representation'. There is no limit to the number of digits, but parties need to agree on how many additional digits will be used to avoid ambiguous representations.

Consider that +002021001 could represent:

a) "Oct 1, 202" as a calendar date (proleptic Gregorian), in 'basic' format (i.e. no "-" separator), 5 digits for year.

b) "Jan 1, 2021" as an ordinal date, 'basic' format (i.e. no "-" separator), 6 digits for year.
On a regular keyboard, how would you type in the examples?
Yes, the languages that are foreign to the platform and require additional tooling to be usable, or have to generate code to fake host semantics.

JVM and CLR aren't the same thing in regards to guest languages.

JVM was designed for Java, and everyone has to fake being Java when generating bytecode.

CLR was designed just like WebAssembly, to be language agnostic runtime, initially released with VB, C#, J#, C++ and a couple of .NET versions of Oberon, Eiffel, Lisp, Scheme, COBOL.

Guest languages than tend to pick their own abstraction, which work great on year zero, and then get problematic as the platform decides to go into another direction, or the guest language decides it wants to break free and target multiple hosts.

Kotlin is a great example, due to its marriage with Android, its Java compatibility is caped to Android Java subset, or one needs to make use of KMM.

Additionally Java developer cannot easily consume Kotlin APIs based on co-routines, and it remains to be seen how they will integrate them with Loom.

Or the reboot they were forced to do in Kotlin/Native because it wasn't originally designed to be compatible with JVM semantics.
I witnessed this. There was a process to submit licenses to legal. People didn't follow the process and their projects were killed off just prior to completion as audits would surface licenses. This happened multiple times. People tried to argue with legal, but they wouldn't even entertain the conversation.
I don't think that is such a good idea. Some countries have the right to living anywhere in a country written in their constitution.
Haven't read that, might take a look. Off the top of my head here a couple of books also with interesting related themes:

Altered Carbon - Richard K Morgan (Also probably my all time favourite book along with the other two in the series. Lots of stuff about consciousness transfers.)

At this point I always assume that it’s out of malice instead of incompetence. These kinds of smaller bugs for things that work by default are just too common for Google.
I remember how Windows ME, 2000, and XP had an ActiveX in Internet Explorer to select what updates to download and install in a web page, and if i recall correctly, it was called Microsoft Update. That download and installation process were done in other process outside the browser.

For me this process was a total pain in the back, because it was pretty common to have failed downloads, specially when you used dial-up internet connections.
I think we might be getting our negatives confused. A perfectly successful rollout sees 100% of people vaccinated, so 100% of admissions are vaccinated, so 0% of admissions are non-vaccinated.

It looks like the legal structure for cooperative housing ("coop") like this originated in Germany and first came to the United States via New York City [1]:

> The first housing cooperative in the United States organized under the Rochdale Cooperative Principles was
developed in Brooklyn, New York in 1918 by a group of Finnish artisans - the Finnish Home Building Association.

Coops remain extraordinarily popular in New York City. The vast majority of apartment buildings in Manhattan are coops. Many from elsewhere don't really know what this means. There are broadly two popular models of property ownership:

1. Condominiums. These are titled with the city and state as a distinct lot with the owner's name on it. Nearly always these are part of an HOA that is responsible for maintenance of common areas and establishing and enforcing rules. For reference, single-family homes ("SFHs") are typically in this model but in the US, SFHs aren't called condos. That's reserved for apartments and townhouses; and

2. Coops. The building is owned by a legal entity like a corporation. As far as the city and state are concerned, that whole building is one lot and is taxed as one unit. The coop is responsible for paying that property tax bill. You don't own your apartment the same way you do in a condo. You own shares in the coop that give you the right to a particular apartment. Maintaining the coop and paying expenses like property taxes is apportioned by the number of shares to each owner as a maintenance fee.

It's worth noting that in New York state these two work very differently in terms of property tax assessment, which has been a point of contention between the city and the state for decades.

Basically, coops are assessed in terms of Assessed Rental Value ("ARV") and condos/SFHs are not such that a coop might have an apportioned property tax bill of two times or more of a similarly valued coop. It also means a $100m condo has a tax bill of only 10-15x that of a $1m coop, which is ridiculous.

Anyway, I wonder since this community is a coop how it gets caught up in this tax treatment compared to similarly valued SFHs in the area.

There are several points in Star Trek canon which state that transporters function by digitising the target’s molecular makeup, transferring that into temporary storage, and then reconstructing it at the desired location.

This does for me raise the question of why people routinely die on away missions. Just keep some storage somewhere on the ship which stores a copy of the person at the point in time they transported down, and if they get injured restore from that backup.
There is a fight for both.

And the fight to stay in control of your data is far easier when you use Free Software.
Lost marketshare is the silliest criticism of them all I think. What to change that? Use it and tell your friends, that simple. It's like a meta-criticism, same as CEO salary.

I find it interesting that, one one hand they are implementing features "in the name of security" that limit the owner of a computer what he/she can do with it and on the other hand they are adding backdoors so that government agencies (or anyone with right information) can spy on citizen that use this "secure" OS.
I've ran a lot of these weird 90s-looking "The OEM did a thing" applications on wine, most work pretty flawlessly. Even a few that talked to hardware (over serial, though).

Imagine you start a number that has many possible c's, for example
2*3*5*7*11*13*17*19*23*29*31*37*41*43*47*53*59*61*67*71 = 557940830126698960967415390
after that you do 557940830126698960967415390 MOD 1649. The number you are left with, has a bigger chance to have a c in it, that also is in 557940830126698960967415390.
The thing that I think would be the biggest help in equalizing skill, inflation, value, cost of living, etc is information. We need to break out of this bubble that has kept all of us in the dark about pricing. For physical products as well as our salaries.

We need to fight against giants that are using spam and sheer numbers to confuse pricing in the market. That applies to job boards, spam Chinese resellers, Amazon product listings, confusing Google ad prices and website listings, recruiters and heck even estate agents that thrive on information asymmetry in the market. There is huge value being lost/captured there for no reason other than a lack or restriction of information.

Sorry I'm rambling a bit.

Even if every Intel CPU project was success, it would not matter when Intel fabs are not competitive.

Intel decided not to do EUV when others did and squeeze yet another node from older technology and it backfired phenomenally.

Even when everything is done right, the risks are high. The competitive high-end node business went from 4 to 2 in one generation. From Intel, GF, TSMC, Samsung to TSMC, Samsung. Intel is trying to get back and they have to burn billions.
Asymmetric cryptography is too simple to contain it. RSA is unbreakable and it's very simple to understand. It would be reinvented over and over by multiple people in multiple countries, you can't contain it.

At two large tech companies I worked for, people loved to throw around the term “blink of an eye!” to justify anything around 100ms

“Oh, that’ll load in the blink of an eye! Only as much latency as the blink of an eye!” etc

It was damn frustrating to try and explain to these clowns that things look like crap if you pile up 2+ blinks of an eye on top of them. In the case of VR, even one “blink of an eye” is about 10x too much delay
