Oracle v. Google involved actual Java (declarations) code being copied; that it was a derived work wasn't seriously disputed there.
Hardly. Cooks generally wind up managing inventory--that's a quartermaster-type job and you need some brains to run that. If you screw it up, you screw up the mission completely.

A couple years ago, I changed my uBlock Origin settings to disable JS by default on every site. I only re-enable JS when necessary on a per-site basis.

I gave WT Social a run when it was launched. It felt worse than a school going child’s weekly web project. Besides I couldn’t figure out for the life of me what it does.

All these people starting social networks get two things wrong - they trying to be “different” forcefully. And making something they want or believe others would want. Mark was smart enough to pivot to what he wanted after it became too big.
This is the United States reaping. There was a time when all but literally every cook and steward was a Filipino national. This was possible because 1) that nation has a strong tradition at sea, and 2) a post-war agreement between U.S. and Philipines allowed them to enlist. This agreement ended in 1992, and anyone who entered under that old program is retired.

The person you replied did do that, though. The stock market was never part of it. The person you originally replied mentioned two things.

The top 10 richest people became richer, from $700 billion to $1.5 trillion. This is an increase, even after inflation.

Most of the world's population had their real income decrease, as any gains they tended to get were mostly less than inflation.

Both of these things are true.
That's easily explained: citing a dictionary definition doesn't mean you know the meaning or how to apply it in a context. The man of the year award is not intolerant, just like giving a trans woman a woman of the year is not intolerant toward biological women who believe they are not the same gender as a trans woman. Tolerance does not mean forbidding all disagreement and satire.

But I am glad you have understood that a comment is not necessarily tolerant or intolerant. That's great progress, it took a while, but I applaud the effort and persistence. Good luck with the rest of the journey.
> does not mean that it's by any means a settled issue or indicative of "Reality". I doubt these conversations would exist if it was.

It is the reality of computing. Anyone trying to deny that is going to discover that bits are bits and there is no control unless you end computer freedom. It takes tyranny such as mandating that computers only run government signed software to change this reality. This is the sort of thing that will happen if this copyright insanity continues and it will also pave the way to absurdities like regulation of cryptography.

> We need to stop demonizing the idea that someone can benefit from their work

Nobody is doing that. They can benefit from their work as much as they want. Plenty of creators are benefiting right now from patronage via platforms like Patreon. They're getting paid for the act of creating, not for sales of an artiticially scarce product. Copyright is not necessary.
If he wants to quit and compete with you he should be able to even if this destroys your business. The problem is he used his access while employed to redirect customers. It wasn't fine after he was fired not because it wasn't ok for him to compete with his prior employer but because he had already swiped your customer base. The prior behavior and challenges after he left are inextricably intertwined. Him quitting didn't separate them.

If he had done NOTHING while employed and quit to do his own thing do you think it would have been a problem? If so why?

I feel there's a lot missing from this, and some terminology would require clarification (What constitutes "used"?).

Generally speaking, this supposition skirts around the concept of monetizing from the work of others, and seems at odds with what the Berne Convention seems to stipulate in that context, and arguably seems in violation of points 2 and 3 of the three-step test.

That's to say nothing regarding the various interpretations on data scraping laws that preclude monetizing outputs.

I don't feel it's that black and white, personally...
Oddly enough a pair of head light bulbs was the best purchase this month.
Yes it's pushed by those people, but does inflation really benefit them? I mean whether a currency deflates or inflates, it's not like it matters to the guys who have the money printer, as after all, they can at any time, make themselves more or less money, inflation/deflation be damned. Additionally, supposedly at some level the currency would be abandoned by the markets, if either inflation or deflation became too bad, so they actually don't benefit from too much inflation, but instead from a stable value which creates a need for their currency.

Anyhow, as far as I can see, inflation mainly benefits those who own assets, and disadvantages those who don't (ie people hoarding cash or the young & working poor who have few assets). Deflation is the opposite. It advantages those who hoard cash and those who have few assets, and disadvantages people who own many assets.
Using anything incorrectly is probably a problem. What makes a smell is that using it at all is worth scrutiny. Things like eval and interpolating user input can be done correctly but frequently aren't and that's why we have lint rules and names like dangerouslySetInnerHtml
They wanted to induce more spending elsewhere in the economy to make up for the lack of spending in shut down businesses. I think as businesses reopened gradually they should obviously have done the reverse (Quantitative tightening), but they didn’t. And then we ended up with high inflation.
Personally I am in favor of high gas prices in order to incentivize switching away from fossil fuels. However, it does require the government meaningfully invest in a replacement (nuclear, other renewables, etc) - and that the government shouldn't allow a transient spike to derail the longer trend. More supply of oil is needed now in order to support the long-term transition away. IMO ofc.

I've switched to kagi.com, a paid search service. It started out kind of slow but ok results, but it has only improved over time. I like the programming specific filter. It's location based results are better than Google or DDG, which is great when I'm shopping for stuff as what is available here is pretty limited.

No ads, user friendly features, able to talk to support - we want these things then we have to pay for them, and I'm happy to do so.

Hmm. You could really benefit from a couple of Linux commands that have “built in concurrency” for such use cases.

Rocket engines point up and ignite the fuel. They don’t need air intakes, nor can they benefit from them. They don’t need to be reused (SpaceX’s strategy isn’t common).

Art is in the eye of the beholder, but it still needs a creator.

That creator had a vision in mind that's unique to them because of their experiences, and I think it's wrong to say that this image can be quantified as a location in a abstract feature space.

So to say "there is no additional layer [to judge goodness] that is relevant to [most people]" assumes there is an algorithmic measure of "goodness" that can be applied to art, which is an assumption you need to make to believe that there's any similarities with AI generated art and human generated other than "they look kinda similar".

I think that's unlikely, Yellowstone is monitored and I think it's more likely that US programs to prevent population decline/demographic collapse would work than Chinese programs of the same nature. I think it's reasonably probable that China will level out under a billion real population (not including migrant workers), even if you think the current official figures are real. Russia has massive HIV rates and is shipping a not insignificant portion of it's reproduction age males to Ukraine, and that's not good for it population in general, and may be catastrophic for it's more rural populations.
Should we expect a source code dump soon?
I love how consistently pro-nuclear talking points are actually arguments for renewables and against fission once you look at the numbers.

The nuclear shills here have given me a lot more hope for a renewable future.

Another fun scaling fact. Loading the 50 or so advanced nuclear reactors required to meet the scale of last year's renewables would require doubling world uranium output.
My personal problem is that I can't help drinking that bottle in the lapses between conversation or whatever. So filling it with water is perfect for me.
I content there's something quite different between e.g. removing an unused argument or renaming a variable (both of which should be entirely automated, and hardly count as refactoring) and separation of concerns, which concerns the purpose, architecture and operation of the code.

I heartily endorse tidy code, good naming, etc. I would put that, though, in a separate category from refactoring.

> Otherwise why even keep the source code at all? If you take the position that there's no point in maintainability without specific maintenance goals, why not keep only the compiled binaries?

"Access to source code" is a maintenance goal, it just usually goes without saying and is rarely an issue. It also doesn't involve making any changes to the code, so I'd say it's also in a separate category to refactoring.
Agreed. For me, Mayday's tileset == Dwarf Fortress graphics.

> Might be wrong, but brief review of this appears to show the “thesis” of PriceOps is yield-based metered feature pricing

The "thesis" of PriceOps is less "you must have metered feature pricing", and more "you should design your infrastructure so that you can learn from and adjust pricing in the future". In other words, expect that your product, customers, and landscape will change, and understand that the pricing scheme (ie, what you charge for, how much you charge, and how you bundle prices into a packaged plan) will almost certainly need to change as well.

Rising rates means rents will likely be increased and then reduce in the medium term. Conversely, rate cuts would likely induce rents to reduce temporarily and then increase in the long term.

There doesn't seem to be any easy solution other than raising rates and then getting over the hill.
You know — that is a genuinely good idea. It's easily the best monetization idea for Twitter I've heard, especially amidst the last decade of nonsense about "brand advertising" and "blue checkmarks."

Just one thing — add a couple more zeros. $100k/yr is not unreasonable for an enterprise offering here. They could introduce all kinds of B2B features for companies that want to use Twitter as a support forum (or, given Twitter's popularity, are forced into using it as a support forum).

Off the top of my head — things like rolling up different sub-accounts under one main corporate account, formalizing the ability for multiple support staff to work one account (and charge per seat!), having deeper integration with Zendesk and other ticketing systems, extracting metrics and showing dashboards for how support (and sentiment) is doing, introducing some AI/ML to help companies match Twitter accounts of their customers to internal customer IDs, enabling ML-powered DMing of targeted offers, introducing chatbots that can be trained to field support queries over DM, etc, etc.

Anyway, it's a really good idea. Maybe you should've bought Twitter.
Average Joe needs some pain so he and all his little worker friends stay in their jobs and come back to the office. Can’t have them getting too much power.
Based on your comment, you'll be the only fulltime person until there's funding? In that case, you're at minimum also bringing 150k of value to the table -- even at 50% salary. (Except that their 150k surely will be paid back via loan/equity. Make sure you get the same deal!)

It seems you're clearly vital, have a rare CTO skillset, and the company is brand new. So, it'd make sense to suggest being an equal partner -- or even more than equal, since you're risking your salary initially, while they retain full salaries.

I'm also very wary that you describe half of the team (>50% of the equity?) by their cash and roladexes, rather than being awesome salespeople/CEOs/web3 people/etc. Are you confident they will be great cofounders, even once their contacts run out?

> (This also assumes that being a cook on a ship is simple, which it probably isn't.)

The ship you are on is going on a 3 month deployment with a stop in port somewhere between 4 weeks in and 6 weeks in (depending on weather). The ship has a crew of 24 people ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sentinel-class_cutter ).

Plan the menus, determine the provisions needed initially on ship and the additional supplies that need to be available when in port mid way through the deployment.

Make sure that the menus meet with the necessary requirements for nutrition. Two of the crew have nut allergies and one has a low sodium diet.

While the crew total is 24 people, it is possible that others will be brought on top the ship in situations where it is warranted - the provisions need to be able to account for up to an additional four people for a week.

You are the only cook and will need to be able to prepare three meals for the entire crew and have an overnight snack available. The ship runs on coffee, it should be better quality than burnt fuel oil.

The cook is essential for crew morale (consider being on a ship for 3 months and having a cook who burns all the food). Food safety is also of high importance - having any number of the crew unable to do their duties because of food poisoning is a significant impact on ship function when there's only two dozen people and little overlap.
Because this is the coast guard, and like most other large services, most of the things can be centralized and standardized.

I live in the balkans, and the military here (during conscription times) had standardized everything... they took a few cooking-inclined conscripts, gave them the recipe and food items per person and they cooked the food. Everything was precalculated. Some people are still so fond of "military food", there are actual military cookbooks for sale, with recipes such as "military beans" (vojnicki pasulj): https://secanja.com/vojnicki-pasulj-po-receptu-jna/ (including the tables of nutritional info)
