Disclaimer: I'm biased as I built business around similar regulations [0].

Here is my take on the situation and the most likely outcome.

European Court of Justice just cleared similar law in Europe and give it a final stamp of validity [1]. Similarly like GDPR, this law will take precedent in most settings because it applies earlier in the life of content than the current US law, DMCA [2]. What I mean by that, Article 17 of EUCD requires "best effort" in licensing prior publishing, while DMCA applies immediately after publishing.

This means the US legislators will eventually try to come closer to this law because they don't like not having power over the platforms. If you look at the SMART Copyright Act, it uses STM (standard technical measure) in the existing law (DMCA) to essentially achieve similar outcome without having to change the law itself. The "only" significant change is that they are giving power to determine compliance to the US Copyright Office over the courts. This is significant considering that in Europe this is left to the courts.

---------

Our approach [0] around this is a bit different while still complaint with the laws. We offer our services free of charge for platforms large and small and focus on the attribution. That means we care about creators getting credit for their creation but leave the result of the attribution to them. That means creators can put their creations into public domain and we make sure nobody else makes money from it. They can also charge for it or completely prohibit certain use cases.

The way we make money is by underwriting the liability, so technically an insurance, which is directly correlated with revenues. More platform makes, more expensive the policy is. We can cover platforms up to $50M in damages per case [3].

The other thing we are doing differently is that we partnered with WIPO [4] to escalate all cases of fair use/exceptions to a real human being that is properly trained in the copyright laws in each jurisdiction. This also is provided free of charge to all participants.

Our larger goal is to introduce VISA-like solution for digital rights and allow the millions of creators be in charge of their works while explicitly leaving the decision making in their hands.

This is also not clear whether the value is missing because it's not set or because it's set to nothing

You might want

? But you can do that with nulls too, just a matter of having a box around the value
Every framework comes with limitations.

The more experienced you are, the more likely you are to be frustrated by the limitations of a framework and set off to write your own.

For example, there are hundreds of Web development frameworks of all sorts around, yet I set out to write my own, and spent five+ years doing it, because I was frustrated by the limitations of all the others.

Does anyone else need my framework? Maybe not.

But I have benefitted from it.
The headline is just totally inaccurate. In the article, they describe the fact that these kings ate a normal amount of meat (while the stereotype, I guess, is that a king would eat tons of extra meat).

I think a more likely explanation, rather than pushing an agenda, is that the correct headline, "Anglo-saxon kings at a normal amount of meat" would not drive clicks.
Vim starts in around 450ms with LSP and NeoVIM on RPi4/4gb/USB-SSD caliber of workstations. It will be 10x faster than VSCode on average, at anything.

Something like X11+mesa with AwesomeWM and Rofi+Kitty or Terminus running tmux will give you window/buffer management on crack to support your nVIM workflow.

Try that combo. It is a lean and mean combo.
Dodge hasn’t been an independent entity since 1928 and Dodge and RAM are still part of Stellantis (the thing that Chrysler morphed into). RAM truck VINs still to this day use the same Dodge manufacturing code and RAM trucks supply chain didn’t change, so this just seems like an internal rebranding.
It’s not like Mazda or Volvo with Ford or something.
This sounds like a nifty solution for compute, but I suppose for data storage and such you would want a separate managed service? Or does this hook into that for various providers too?

True, both most of the development effort required to turn the tech into a practical transportation system happened after the war (and more than half of the funding came from militaries).
Without a way to easily import data directly from my banks/credit cards, using GnuCash (or Firefly III, a great alternative that's also worth checking out) just takes way more time than its worth. (OFX was not as straightforward to obtain or use as one would hope). Mint is so much easier to use - it automatically pulls and categorizes transactions from pretty much any institution imaginable without no user effort needed. I stopped using Mint after a brief stint because of data privacy and security. No matter how many security claims they made, I just couldn't justify giving them my bank passwords in plain text. I suppose it doesn't matter as much for credit cards, but for my checking/savings accounts, a compromise would actually jeopardize my money. Apparently some of the big US banks are starting to roll out authentication APIs (e.g OAUTH) so it may be worth another look.

It does seem like there's still room for a FOSS/selfhosted Mint clone that gracefully and automatically handles data import (I wouldn't even mind having to enter my banking passwords each time I want to update, to avoid storing them)
? Seems like a generally healthy attitude to me, though that poster may be taking it to an extreme.

After reading that comment, I can't help but feel that you're not familiar with the history of the ACLU. Check out the documentary.
I wouldn’t expect the larger question of what organizational and management issues lead to the problem in the larger sense to be made public. At least not while the issue is still fresh. Maybe down the road as a business school case study after some of the players retire.
I've been using their QR scanner and had no idea it was part of a brisket initiative.

I think by having apps for so many use cases they may have better luck picking up enough users. I for one will be checking out the rest of their work based on that experience with the barcode scanner.

There's also something to be said for many small programs that do one thing well. See also the "Simple" suite of apps, which seem to have a similar philosophy.
In my opinion, you shouldn’t try and take a position of mentor in the field if you don’t have the experience/authority to do so. You’ll just misguide her.

There are things i can think of that you may try:

1. Try and do something techy yourself. Getting your own hands dirty will give you much better insights into what she’s getting into. Something that’s useful to you. I don’t know what you’re into, but if you have a hobby, it’s usually easy to find an idea for a tool that will help with that hobby. Just make sure you don’t try and take her place or something.

2. Probably better: Ask HER, if she could make something useful to you, or even better for your whole family / community. You may go for something a little more complicated, cause she’ll have more time to devote to this. IoT projects are very rewarding and touch a lot of aspect of tech. Home automation projects are great, like connected lightbulbs that respond to voice or if you have emails. Small games like wordle are cool too. Or things like community websites. When I was 18 (22 years ago!), I built a message board for me and my friends. It was really fun and then i could customize it for things we liked to do, like rating movies, and plan holidays. We used it for years, and only stopped when the ISP stopped supported the backend tech I was using.

In any case, the sooner she starts the better off she’ll be. The first thing is to pick up anything: a book or a tutorial online, and give it a shot.

Good luck, and have fun!!
“Being able to look someone in the eye instead of their navel” is a crude caricature of introversion. It’s exactly the sort of misconception that causes people to assume introversion is a negative trait.

In high school an essay was returned to me with a word I had used, "probably", struck out in red. I went to ask the teacher about it and she told me that I should not use the word "probably" when writing as it did not sound confident. My writing would be better without the word. I reread the sentence and it did sound more assertive and direct without "probably."

I then asked my teacher what I should write if I meant to convey that something was probably true, but that I actually wasn't certain or all that confident about it. She was stumped.

I can easily see how advice like that leads to "reporting" like this. Some editor goes "Hey, cut this segment, we can't use this, it's confusing, and the story will sound better without it."

The author's postscript, where he seems to forgive the BBC, is also pretty bad. Imagine what the editor will learn - "I edited a story to make it clearer and punchier. The expert complained, but the complaint went away when we said 'Sorry'. " If the editor realizes he inverted the meaning of his expert and completely got away with it - well, that will be a counter-productive lesson from the standpoint of accuracy in news.

The news has the incentive to be interesting, simple, engaging - all that. None of this nuance stuff. If editors get carte blanche for being new... I don't think that even a new editor should have trouble with the concept of "Don't invert what your expert says."
But there is no reason to believe that 2SD above the mean in the heritable elements of 'intelligence' amounts to much. For all we know, almost everyone is born about the same and there are a few disabled at one tail and a few playing 10 simultaneous games of blindfolded chess at the other.
There's a lot of gotchas with SSR and hydration. I got bit just today because Next.js hid all the complexity from me so I was surprised when localStorage didn't work.

Tall women are easy to get dates with, well unless they are the fashion model types who are hot enough to get the in-demand tall guys. There are lots of cute tall women who are unfairly neglected.

I'm average height and was married to a 5' 11" woman for a while. It always felt weird. It's much more comfortable for me to be with a woman who is a similar height, or a touch smaller, just for ergonomic reasons like how it feels when you hold hands or put your arms around each other.

I don't understand hot short women demanding tall guys as a kind of trophy. I know they can get them, because they are hot, but they'd be more comfortable with someone closer to their height.
Likely because Polynesians are descended from East Asians that migrated south to Melanesia and then out into Polynesia.
A Mint clone would require that banks facilitate much more open access. Being centralized is a good position for Mint because all the financial institution has to do is trust Intuit.

All mathematical formulas representing physical phenomena are called models. Some models are more accurate then other models.

Entropy is one such model. The mathematical input parameter that goes into this model is a macrostate. We are also fully aware that the model is an approximation Just like how we're aware newtonian mechanics and probability itself is an approximation.

If you feel entropy is too vague of a description then you can choose to use another model for the system. One with billions of parameters and can record the exact state of the system. Or you can use Entropy, which has it's uses just like how classical mechanics still has uses.
The author doesn't give the impression that they understand what they're reading.

> But she gives the game away when she writes: “Maybe my relationship with dreaming wasn’t like everyone else’s.” Not like everyone else’s, no. But certainly like that of many people who suffer from recurring and terrifying nightmares.

Obviously, she's talking about the fact that she discovered that there were some people who didn't have her kind of nightmare issues. Realizations that your invisible traits aren't shared by everyone is a fairly common experience.

Yet, this is twisted so that the absurd criticism that, while writing her book after she found out that the condition is shared with enough people to be given a name, she just doesn't realize that there are some people who share her condition. Good thing the author pointed that out to her, I guess.

> Eloise writes that, according to the Mayo Clinic, nightmare disorder “only affects around 4-5% of adults, which shocked me: did adults really not have nightmares?” It’s as if she genuinely does not know the difference between 4% and zero.

She literally just got finished mentioning the 4%, which is why it should be obvious that she's talking about her realization that some adults exist that didn't suffer that condition rather than a statement about literally all other adults.

And the last sentence there gives the game away: she obviously realizes the difference and literally just mentioned it, and so she must have meant something else.

Could you ask someone at home to put it in airplaine mode for you?
Yes. And if the metric is "confusion when to use what" then Rust (and especially async Rust) might fare even worse: Now there's multiple types of Mutexes, Semaphores, Channels: Awaitable ones and not awaitable ones. And one needs to understand how they fit into programs, and interact with all the other stuff. Most people which just pick an async Rust runtime because they read it's a great thing are having a rather hard time with this.
Thanks, that was an interesting watch.
> The API used to perform the deletion accepted both site and app identifiers and assumed the input was correct

Hopefully they also change their API, so these two very different things don't use the same API call.
Maybe? Generics were the most egregious absence, since it's challenging to express some constructs in a static language without them. Nullable types are another issue that other modern languages (e.g., C# and TypeScript) are trying to solve, but we it's a difficult issue to tackle when nil is already pervasive in the language.

I think generics are a great addition to the language, and I'd love to see sum types (which would allow Option to circumvent nullable types), but I think that's much less likely.

Your comments are treating work as some sort of dichotomy. It doesn't exist. There are several reasons to want full-time employment:

- Purpose (do something good in the world)

- Mental challenge

- Physical challenge

- Meet people

- Earn money

- Daily routine

- etc.

Full-time employment is a popular way to get these desires satisfied, but it's far from the only way.

For example, if I would take a sabbatical right now, earning money or meeting people would not be an immediate problem. However, I would miss the mental challenge and doing something good for the world. So I'd likely take up open source contribution. I'd probably do quite a lot of it -- several hours per day. Is it work? No, I don't think people would call it that. Does it do for me many of the things work does for me? Yeah.
It's is admittedly quite the arrogant statement yes. But my point is that the best practices in library development in NPM and crate are very, very different and when I look at NPM and having to pull in hundreds and hundreds of dependencies, all of which are brittle, I don't desire an ounce of that thinking in crate-land.
I went through this process and ended up fully converting to Catholicism.. in fact my case was even _more_ extreme as I was also born in an Islamic country. So I went from someone who REALLY hated religion (I literally lived everything Hitchens was talking about) to a confirmed Catholic by doing RCIA..

The process really started for me when I realized that God is ultimately a philosophical question (God is Ipsum Esse) rather than a scientific one. If science could answer everything, then we might as well throw out the entire field of philosophy after all..

This is how I started to study philosophy and theology (both _serious_ Atheist philosophers such as Jean Paul Sartre, Albert Camus, .. as well theologians).

I think it has been an absolute net positive in my life. I've gained a wealth of knowledge, significantly grown my network and feel much more grounded in my spiritual well being.

You should however, be prepared to be ridiculed if you outwardly practice your faith. I was surprised how many people would essentially conclude that I am either not educated or "brain washed".
Don't be a mentor, be an enabler instead.

My mom inspired all of my early learning about computing, officially starting at age 9 when she brought me to Barnes & Noble to get the RedHat Linux book because our internet was too slow to download the full OS. Her only contingency was that I actually read the book and pay for it with my own money. She taught me the value of a dollar and how to stick with something, even if it's hard. She chewed my teachers out when they'd say I was "wasting time" on computers, she bit back when I got into video gaming that invited disingenuous allusions from teachers about Columbine, and she listened when I'd babble on about what I did or learned.

My mom isn't good with computers at all, but my #1 champion when it came to chasing my dreams.
> It's wrong to deride a person based on skin color not because it hurts their feelings, but because our preconceived notions on their inferiority hold no objective basis in reality except those derived from our flawed social perceptions.

No... if that were true then it would be OK to deride someone who was born with a deformed limb, because in that case the "inferiority" would really have an "objective basis in reality". They would be objectively inferior at certain tasks then someone without it. Does that make it ok to insult them?

Suggesting racism (or prejudice) is wrong simply because it's not objectively inferior is missing the point.

The actual answer, which I think you would have come to eventually, is that deride someone for an attribute they had no control over, is the essence of prejudice.

People do not chose to be born in a poor country, in an abusive family, black, French, short or handicap, these are simply the hands they were dealt.

I wish Amazon would support officially jailbraking/installing alternative OS for the old kindles.

You're missing the point; not all of those guys are engaging in the kinds of self-improvement and development that could help them have experiences similar to the person to whom you are responding.

For an individual short guy, the quantitative info out there is only detrimental. At best, it's useless. They need a qualitative focus.

IMHO, we should not put all our money into a single basket. Instead of overfunding few science projects and underfunding everything else, we should fund projects with potentially good ROI. For example, IMHO, we should fund research in LENR instead of HENR, because LENR will be much more useful. LENR reactor can be installed at home, or in a plane or spaceship, while HENR will require a separate town.
Tallish guy here.

There are a reasonable number of women on dating sites that like saying pretty horrible things about shorter guys in there profiles.

I don't know that it does much but I've always treated it as a bit of a red flag and swiped left.

I don't think there's anything wrong with say, being attracted to someone taller than yourself, but I don't understand feeling the need to public ridicule someone about a physical trait you aren't attracted to.
