I believe registration would be an unnecessary burden for smaller publishers (eg. I write something, I want some protection for it).

I like your idea of "renewal", and it might make sense to equate the patent term with copyright term: 15 years (maybe 10 years?) after publication (there's a bunch of edge-cases already covered by copyright law since "publication" can be way off from "creation", but one would certainly have to tread carefully).

After those initial 10-15 years expire, unless you register and renew, work moves into public domain. There should be financial incentive to not renew (iow, it should be expensive and perhaps proportional to the term and revenue from works), and I can't see why should anyone benefit from copy-protection past their lifetime. Perhaps even a shorter cap.
Those things don't infect others.
Since 2014 this is the norm for Indian govt to pass unrelated bills as part of "money bill" as an easy way to pass bills by bypassing the upper house because the govt didn't have majority in the upper house

And these days debates just don't happen on bills. Since they have super majority they do whatever they want.

People who cry tears of blood against the govt still don't elect opposition members in Parliament who could stop unfavorable bills and then they cry (sorry fir the reddit-esque sentence) "OmG OpPoSiTion Is UseLesS"
Ha yes, reminds me of this quote from "100 years of whatever this will be" (recommended read) that trended on HN [1] yesterday:

> Software intercompatibility is trending toward zero. Text chat apps are literally the easiest thing in the world to imagine making compatible - they just send very short strings, very rarely, to very small networks of people! But I use at least 7 separate ones because every vendor wants their own stupid castle and won't share. Don't even get me started about books or video.

Why Laravel is best framework for developing complex webapp in 2022
It's a non sequitor to call the article "trash" because of an issue taken with a passing description of Yedioth Ahronoth as a tabloid. (Especially when it's physical format is that of a tabloid rather than broadsheet).
> These are things no other vendor on earth would do

I really wonder why. Microsoft has some great engineers. I would assume some of the compiler or kernel people regularly meet up with people from Intel or Qualcomm and talk about future development.

It's not really the same, but when I was working in particle physics I remember some Intel engineers really trying hard to get into contact with researchers, and trying to figure out what we need, because they wanted to sell their Xeon Phi / Knights Landing cards to us (basically GPUs for general purpose computing based on X86, now discontinued).

If you like that idea, that's fine, and sure it's "nice" from some point of view. But it's also obviously inefficient and therefor it will cost extra, and it makes sense for the country to have those incentives.

can confirm. We built a potato canon last month.
The core issue behind both sets is single point of failure. A misconfigured security system can causes down time. The problem is that security systems tend to be single point of failure by design that fail "safe" by not allowing access.

This would be an excellent security research topic. How to design non-single point of failure security that both fail safe and do not cause down time when misconfigured.
> The Messengers also announced they wanted it to be an open religious space where Muslims, Jews, Protestants, Orthodox, and Catholics could congregate and discuss religion. I knew Justo. I knew how antiquated and conservative he could be. I knew that he had fought for many years for his cathedral to be consecrated as a Catholic place of worship.

This is sad, and it's discussed in the article the difficulties in getting it sanctified as an actual Cathedral, but you don't have to be 'antiquated and conservative' to want the Cathedral you spent the best part of your life making to be a place of worship for your own religion.
Are these failures due to the game engine?

In the case of users being able to insert HTML+JS in to the in-game chat to kick other players, yes. The game engine should be authenticating the source of API calls.
No, you can’t. It only says the problem has a unique solution. It doesn’t even say an efficient algorithm for computing it exists, or even whether an algorithm exists. Neither of those are very hard to prove, but the theorem won’t help you there.

For comparison, let’s say the “sorting theorem” says “if you have n different numbers, you can place them in a sequence so that no number is larger than its predecessor”.

Now, you have two numbers. How do you apply that theorem to place them in a sequence so that no number is larger than its predecessor?
I go about 2-3 days without charging it under moderate (regular) use. While developing (compiling, lots of tabs, etc.), I’ll use about 80% in a day.

For reference, the last zoom call I was on (2 hours) with nearly max brightness only drained the battery ~5%. My Intel MBP would’ve been down at least 20%.
So, in the future, along with pressure cookers, we'll have pressure freezers?

Pressure cookers are dangerous because water expands to 1700 times its volume as steam, and thus water acts like a big sponge of energy, and steam explosions can kill. A typical steam pressure cooker is run at 15 PSI or so.

A pressure freezer will operate with 9000 PSI or more, requiring a far more robust vessel. However, as water isn't compressible, a leak should be far less dangerous.
Nothing. I shouldn't need to do anything to protect you. You are but a stranger, as are most people in the world. And quite frankly, I don't care about you. Nor you, I would assume, I. Outside of this conversation, we will likely never meet.

So long as I am not actively trying to harm you, I would think that would suffice. I hope you too don't burden yourself with protecting each and every being you see on the streets. So long as you've bestowed yourself protection conferred by the vaccine, I see no reason for you to go out of your way to jab a dose of Pfizer at each unvaccinated individual you encounter.

How to quickly give users sudo privileges in Linux
You're correct, but I was unclear. What I find confusing is that there are two concepts in ordering of bits, and they are not "in sync": bytes and words and the order of individual bits. This means there is both "least significant bit" and "least significant byte".

# Little Endian Machine
87654321
87 65 43 21

# Big Endian Machine
87654321
21 43 65 87

# Big Endian Machine, word-wise
87654321
12 34 56 78

In a world where endianness concerns only words, there would only be 12345678 and 87654321, but not the word-wise mixing as in 21 43 65 87. I suppose this is because the individual adressable unit of memory is a byte, and byte streams can be interpreted in different ways (as int8, int16 etc)? And because bytes are usually opaque to the programmer into how they lay out their bits internally to represent a uint8?

It makes sense, but without a lot of context around it, it is very confusing initially.

One could start with the almost 1000 pages of George Shoobridge Carr's a synopsis of elementary results in pure mathematics published in 1837. If someone were to update this book for 2021 I'm curious to know how many pages that might run to.
This is just pointless drama. The fact is the code was open sourced under Apache or MIT and that's a great thing for everyone.

You're free to fork the code, remove all the AWS code and build your own community around it without ever caring about Amazon.

For what it's worth, as a former Amazonian who wanted to release games, the games clause did prevent me from attempting to create a commercial game, but it didn't stop me from working on games for fun.
By combining instruction compression and macro-op fusion you get the net effect of looking like you have a bunch of extra higher level opcodes in your ISA.

Compress a shift and load into a 32-bit word and macro-op fuse those and you have in effect an index based load instruction, without sucking up ISA encoding space for it.

Yeah but none is production ready. I used to host a matrix node with synapse but it's a waste of time because it doesn't scale well and once you realize that there is no way to convert your users over to a better server software.

So now I'm just waiting until Dendrite or Conduit become fully featured to deploy one of them instead. I'm looking at matrix hosting long term, and synapse is not long term.

At the time the cost to launch it would have been insane since it called for ten thousand or more satellites in LEO. However with Starlink, SpaceX has been promising to demonstrate the ability to economically launch such massive satellite constellations. If they succeed, I expect Brilliant Pebbles to return, although probably under a new name.
This is a good point. People often lose some perspective in their analysis of the U.S/Western European-based cultural, political and economic dominance that exists in the world today. And while it certainly is loaded with numerous flaws and misdeeds, the Chinese system of government, social control and cultural management is very easily far worse in so many ways (none of this is to even mention the absolutely grotesque modern political history of China, one on which the modern CCP is founded and still adamantly refuses to reject in any formal way). Choosing between two less-than-perfect options such as these, I have a hard time imagining any moderately rational person with a modicum of interest in basic individual and human rights choosing the Chinese state as their preferred global leader. All countries pay lip service to notions of human rights and dignity, but at least the western democracies somewhat take these concepts seriously, even if they often do so in a patchwork way.

What if you only had government email that was full of spam? What if it was physical spam that taxes pays for that follows victims around the US with no way to stop it? Is that what you support?
It would be nice if they're extreme talking points, but these are routinely presented by the media and public health agencies. For example up until very recently claim (4) was being made in Germany, and claim (3) is basically the claim underlying any implementation of vaccine passports - of course, we may suspect they are in reality merely means of extra-judicial punishment, but governments officially deny it.

Regardless, whilst these claims are "extreme" in the sense of being phrased in absolutes, they aren't "extreme" in the sense of being rarely believed, are they? Not only do they crop up all over this thread but in the very article the thread is about, Angelas Merkel, not exactly famous for being the Queen of Extreme, says "The fourth wave must be broken and this has not yet been achieved" which is simply another way of saying (3) and strongly alluding to (1) and (2).

Also:

"it drastically reduces the likelihood of infection, which drastically reduces the transmission rate, and recent studies have shown that it does also reduce the likelihood of transmission directly"

Let's break this down:

1. Infection rates. Health agencies claim it reduces the likelihood of infection, and at first it genuinely seems to, but the only one that is willing to show the actual raw data before they wildly alter it using statistical techniques, is the UK HSA. Their data shows that by now the rate amongst vaccinated people is actually a lot higher than among the unvaccinated for some large age groups! This sounds like it should be impossible, but it turns out to have been observed in pre-COVID times with other vaccines.

They have been reduced to claiming that comparing case rates between vaccinated and unvaccinated people isn't a valid way to determine if the vaccine works, due to vague behavioural differences that they speculate must exist but have no proof for.

2. Rate of transmission. Not for the first time, we find that epidemiological studies aren't worth much. Can you cite yours, so we can see when it was written? Because once again UK data contradicts it (or it does now at least):

https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lanepe/article/PIIS2666-7...

"In the UK it was described that secondary attack rates among household contacts exposed to fully vaccinated index cases was similar to household contacts exposed to unvaccinated index cases (25% for vaccinated vs 23% for unvaccinated)."

No real difference in transmission at all. Actually slightly higher for vaccinated people but let's assume that's not really significant.

Why paint protection film in Chesterfield is vital for your vehicle?
Car detailing services in Chesterfield make an automobile look as new from the inside out as possible. If you're wondering about what exactly is automobile detailing, the answer is that it takes a trained and competent specialist using a proven system to revive your vehicle to showroom freshness. Detailers utilize specialized tools and cleaning substances to restore your vehicle's appearance to like-new condition.

Fees are mostly to disincentivise keeping works from public domain (which copyright creators agreed was for the public good) which are not really benefiting the creator in any substantial way.

Regarding governments, just like we establish residency for income tax purposes, you could establish residency for copyrighted-work creation. If it's multiple countries you've been in while "creating", the one you spent most time in, or choose-one. If you register an off-shore tax-haven company today to receive your income while you reside (and work) in another country, when found out, you'll be charged with tax evasion. It's not that hard and we've got mechanisms to deal with it already.

All signatory countries to global copyright agreements would uphold the terms regardless of where works are registered.

1. Editing is as important as technical content

2. If your book is open source then perfect technical content first and then edit it

3. Have loads of examples rather than information dump

4. Curse of knowledge is real. What knowledge you consider as common sense will blow a newbie's brains. So we have to read the book in "reverse" kinda way. Every sentence and word has to make sense to anyone and their grandmother.

5. Leanpub is really good for self publishing and your book gets good audience if you make it "pay what you want" rather than a completely paid book.

We might think that paid only is the only way but if your book is free to download then you don't lose paying customers. Those who couldn't afford/don't want to pay are just not able to download.

But if it is free & optional to pay then you get a higher audience.

Leanpub allows you to have a DL kind of thing. Please use it.

8x 2 byte instructions (16 bytes) lead to smaller code than 4x 8 byte instructions (32 bytes).

Counting number of instructions isn't really a good metric for that either.

Right, but all architectures can handle many combinations of instructions in 1 cycle, so this is not really a great proxy for that.

Same for code size. If the instructions are half the size, having 1.5x more instructions still means smaller binaries.

Its not completely unrelated.

Excess mortality is the only fact that we know for sure given that every country counts "COVID deaths" differently.

Given that there is a statistical difference, the only thing we can probably know for sure is that an individual chances were slightly better in the EU.

The difference is small, like others have mentioned, so it doesn't seem like EU policies did a lot for the whole EU.

This makes sense, since for example Germany had pretty harsh policies, but due some of its neighboring countries having pretty lax policies (e.g. Austria), some parts of Germany were extremely affected (e.g. Bavaria).

This hints that it doesn't really matter if single states have harsher policies as long as neighboring states do not, at least for states of the size of Germany.

If we look at China, which had a very cohesive policy in all its provinces, the story differs.

This hints that if cohesive policies would have been taken at EU and USA scale, the outcome might have been different.

That didn't happen, so we will never know for sure.

This doesn't answer the OP question, but if someone claims to have an answer, they are probably lying, because we don't really have facts to back that answer up.
> The people who make these decisions don't view these sorts of things from the same perspective as you do but from a geopolitical lense of military might.
