China has been allergic to the word "invasion", perhaps because they don't want it thrown at them if they attack Taiwan. But China is not happy with Russia over this.

I saw a news video (CNBC?) on YouTube looking into how the chip supply shortage is affecting car sales. One of the car manufacturer representatives said they have had to cut features like power windows / locks, as may be expected.

However, he said heated seats (and some other luxury things) are an absolutely critical feature that couldn't possibly be omitted in an emergency situation like this. They're essentially as critical as having the steering wheel or brakes.

The fact that note taking/ personal knowledgeable management/ task management topics keep popping up so often on HN tells me two things:

1) people are overloaded with information and whatever they used to do is not working for them and they hope that somebody else has cracked it better then them and they could adopt that strategy. The people who didn’t have a system in place also are overloaded and hope that they can use something existing rather then inventing their own “wheel”. 2) whatever todays solutions are they are not meeting the need because everyone has a shiny tool/app/system and none of them are satisfied. 6 months in they are looking for a new “system” be it notion or whatever the latest YouTube hotshot is peddling.

I think the reality is that humans are limited when it comes to efficient context switching and hence when it comes to managing todos / knowledge any system that requires human interaction to “manage” it has constraints. So to that effect until we all have AI assistants out system will need a way for us to say no to things so that we can actually manage our system and it in turn can help us be organized and productive.

Personally, I don't want to be on the hook for proving this kind of nonsense in order to enforce my license.

>They clarify this slightly elsewhere by using the phrasing of "contribute back to the open source community".

See projects like grsec. They are GPL, but they aren't giving back to the open source community with their patch set. I would not say that giving source code to your users is "contributing" to them.

Based on your post, your whole theory turns on section 9:

You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or run a copy of the Program. Ancillary propagation of a covered work occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance. HOWEVER, NOTHING OTHER THAN THIS LICENSE GRANTS YOU PERMISSION TO PROPAGATE OR MODIFY ANY COVERED WORK. These actions infringe copyright if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or propagating a covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.

You're so focused on the first sentence that you missed the one I've put in caps. Once you link to the program, you've created a modified work, which as it says plainly right there in section 9, you cannot do without accepting the license, which is a contract that tells you what you can and can't do with that modified work.

I also suspect you're not really understanding that you don't have to touch the source code to the hypothetical AGPL'd JSON library to create a modified version of it. The whole theory of the (A)GPL is that you create a modified work by MERELY LINKING AND USING the library in your own code. The resulting program, including your own code that consumes the JSON library, is then a modified version of the library. This might seem counter-intuitive, but remember, the starting position legally is that you have NO RIGHT to use, modify, distribute, etc. a copyrighted work. You need a license from the owner. A license is a legal contract that can specify whatever terms and whatever conceptual framework it wants. You might think that linking to a library is merely "using" it, but the (A)GPL disagrees and that's the contract that tells you what you're allowed to do with it, take it or leave it.

The idea that if you hire SWEs for 4 hours, you'll get 4 hours straight of programming out of them is wishful thinking. The individual might go in with that mindset but long term it will take a very dedicated individual to do it. It's not sustainable by most employees. There's also the fact that a job is more than programming. A company will get at most 2 to 3ish hours of output from a programmer. So then the company will need to hire many more programmers plus the associated employees that support human resources and such.

The idea that most companies over hire employees speaks to the fact that it's difficult to figure out how many people are needed for a project. Hiring a group of part time workers does nothing to fix that situation.

I like the idea of working part time but for it to happen it would need to be a hard push by the workers via a union or something similar. From an employer's point of view it just doesn't make sense.

Hard to say the number because it is difficult (but sometimes not impossible) to deduce the device from on chain data. ASICs do exist but they have not obsoleted GPUs like has happened on other projects (such as Bitcoin.)

FPGAs were never big for mining. There was like 3 months in early Bitcoin where they people seriously tried deploying them but the simple fact is they are way too expensive from manufacturer markup for mining. And if you want to make your own you’ll just end up making an ASIC instead.

From an idealistic perspective: I mistrust any "hack" that would prevent taking out Nazi Germany.

From a more cynical perspective: Who's going to have to actually change the oaths? The politicians. The same politicians who want to be able to sell the wars as protecting the motherland. That change seems to be unlikely to be implemented, because it takes power away from those who want it.
That's verifiably false. US occupation of most of Germany ended in 1955, and of Berlin in 1990. US occupation of most of Japan ended in 1952, and of the Ryukyu Islands in 1972.

Only winning strategy is MAD. If using nuclear option comes into question then powers helping to defend Ukraine should make it very clearly known that any use of nuclear weapons by Russia will be retaliated by full nuclear response. If there is doubt, then probability of actual nuclear weapon use will grow exponentially with every day this conflict is dragging on.

> The copyright holders of the code will not care if someone forks their code, updates it, doesn't update the link, contributes back, and has zero users.

You're correct, but the whole point of licenses is having them work as intended. We don't run the free software ecosystem on goodwill and "I don't care if you violate my license as long as I like what you're doing". Licenses exist for a reason.

> If there are 0 users of my modified version, I have offered a link to "all users".

My reading of that is akin to "all potential users", as implied by the requirement being on what the modified version does; the code itself can only affect potential users since it has no idea of what actual users may or may not eventually exist.

Depends greatly on the conditions of the facility they were mining in. Heat kills these units. A professional set-up (not to be confused with a large one) will have much more mild impact on the units than a building with poor thermal considerations. Then again, high end miners will be running custom firmware which could also compromise the card lifespan.
How an L.A. Real Estate Agent Used Google SEO to Sell Celebrity Homes
What will happen is basically what's happening now, regardless of the occupation status or any supposed "victory" conditions defined by Russia. Arms and ammunition will flow into Ukraine via its western border, and wounded and dead Russians will flow out via its eastern border.

The only two ways Russia can stop this process are by executing a full retreat or using nuclear weapons. Failing either of those, Russia will run out of soldiers before the rest of us run out of arms and ammunition. They will not -- cannot -- be allowed to win, and the rest of the civilized world will make certain that they don't.

To me, the trolling dropped to near zero for about 24 hours afterward. Then it started ramping back up, but has failed to reach the normal pre-invasion level.

I think pro-Russia trolls really had to stop and think, because there was no easy way to defend what was happening, and nobody was going to be deflected by what-aboutism for a while. And anti-Russian trolls didn't have to troll; they could stick strictly to reality and do just fine. And trolls on any other axis were just ignored; nobody had attention for them.

Just my experience. Your mileage may vary.
Would it be "conspiring" or simply public relations? I ask because when you say "conspire" you could be alluding to it being unlikely that an oil company would have PR people on staff to "massage" their public image. I think we can all agree this sort of PR is pretty common, whether or not it happened in this case.

And more importantly, how a distro works and what a package manager (and package build process) has to do. LFS isn't a terribly practical output for many people, but building it is a good learning experience regardless of if/how you use the built system.

Right... The US and NATO couldn't conquer Afghanistan (or Russia 20 years prior)... Afghanistan had virtually no army, no allies, and was one of the poorest countries in the world.

But Russia is going to conquer Ukraine, which is substantially larger, has a bigger population, a more heavily armed population, and - arguably - the world's 4th best military?? Plus Ukraine has full support from the entire advanced world beside Brazil, India, and China. And Russia has the support of only Belarus - which has a military budget smaller than the military aid the US has sent Ukraine in the last 2 weeks...

This is an unwinnable war.

Leave it to the Soviet Union to bankrupt themselves...
"Having the U.S. risk global nuclear annihilation over Ukraine is an indescribably insane view, as one realizes upon a few seconds of sober reflection."

No, it is not. Loosing Ukraine to Russia means imminent danger to whole Europe and from there U.S. This war is existential.

Letting Russia know that nuclear retaliation is very real possibility forces Russian establishment to reconsider current situation and options.

Putin may be (or maybe not) crazy, but the whole Russia is not and Russians understand real power very well.

I prefer not to die in nuclear Armageddon, but I do not want live in Europe constantly threatened and sliced or worse, concurred and destroyed by Putin.

> The law would be more than happy to accept that there exists something that generates a link or git clone command to stand in as a distribution mechanism for the source archive which a competent practitioner could use to derive the program in question.

The requirement is for the source code for the corresponding version is what is advertised. The vast, vast majority of AGPLed apps do not have any automatic mechanism to match the currently running version to such offer; if there's an offer at all (which there often isn't, making all forks and branches violations unless they add it first), it's usually a hard-coded link, and then the onus is on the person making changes to first modify that link to point to their version.

Yes, there are technical ways in which you can make the AGPL work in a vaguely reasonable way, avoiding this problem by automating your way around it. And nobody implements them. If people understood these requirements and actually implemented those mechanisms, we wouldn't have this problem, and people would also be aware of just how special and non-free the AGPL is because it's imposing requirements on modification beyond what a free software license can.

I'm not saying it has to be a source code archive, but if it isn't a source code archive, then you'd better find a way for the app to magically know what git repo hosted elsewhere should be used as the source code offer link, and have it automatically update for any forks/branches and always stay up to date. Having an automatically generated local source code archive, or outright serving the source code of the currently live app (e.g. for interpreted languages) are the only sane ways I can think of of automating compliance with this AGPL requirement. Anything that points to another server or repo isn't going to stay up to date as people make changes, and then you're back to square one.

> It is decreed that ARM systems not be user deactivatable.

There are certain consumer Android ARM tablets/phones that for whatever reason, do not have secure boot enabled (which are not devkits from Aliexpress). So not all of them. But they are indeed quite rare, and is one of the reasons why you can't just replace the Android bootloader with something else (you need the appropriate signing keys to do so).

On Qualcomm devices, secure boot, once enabled, blows an irreversible hardware fuse. You then need the appropriate signing keys and software to sign images and you can, I believe, continue to blow fuses to overwrite old signing keys should you want to invalidate them. Thanks to the fuses, you can never deactivate secure boot (without, like, replacing the SoC with a miraculous solder job, or whatever). It's really irreversible.
