Alternative take: Linux could finally create a stable driver ABI so that drivers compiled in 1999 still work with the latest kernel without recompiling, as is with Windows. Until then only the most main-stream devices will be supported.
You need all of that math to understand the topics, then you can apply them to real life. FWIW you can probably be a decent design engineer with an industrial engineering degree plus some thermo, circuits, dynamics and a lil CS... I see more than a few jobs open up that accept both degrees.

I think you can really pick up Fluids, vibrations, and advanced mechanics on your own with that background, if you end up needing it. But to the larger question, yeah you need calc 1-3, ODEs, and actually a good bit linear algebra to be able to understand and apply 300-level engineering and beyond.

University offers investigation into Oracle finance disaster
In the beginning of the year, I was recommended by a friend working at Google to test GCP using the tutorials on https://www.cloudskillsboost.google/

Google banned my account while I was doing one tutorial. One step failed, the provisioning of something, and I had to redo a few things again. It succeeded but I had used more egress bandwidth than allowed to run the tutorial correctly so they banned me automatically a few minutes later.

The support unbanned me after some time but I thought it was a sign to not use GCP yet.
I refer to these people as the "glue" between two departments.

At big companies, this is mostly a management issue.

Questions like these are common
1.) Is this person part of the design team or engineering team?
2.) Who does this person report to, and how is his sprint planned?

And, as a company grows in size, managing people becomes a more important issue than focusing on minor product details.
Why don't we use the terms "rent theft" or "loan theft" when people don't pay their rent or loan payments, since we use the term "wage theft" when companies don't pay their wages? In all of those cases, isn't it just not giving someone what you owe, rather than taking something away from someone?
I think some people are just more hypnotically attracted to the action occurring in their field of vision, and moving pictures stimulate this primal response.

Emotional response to artificial visual stimuli was first exaggerated for some with the arrival of silent movies, made more realistic (even when complete fantasy) with talkies and then color film.

Television turned this from a designated entertainment event into an everyday occurrence in the home when it was still black & white, then color TV upped the ante, but until cable came along nobody imagined that anybody would want to have it turned on all the time. The few broadcast channels in any one market used to sign off after a certain time at night then not resume programming until the next morning. There were 13 VHF channels but no market had anywhere near that number to choose from within radio range.

Then come personal style computers which were powered on all the time at the office, even if they were not that interesting people got accustomed to it, and did some of the same thing when they got more popular for the home. Laptops took the screen on the road and internet made it more interesting on a 24/7 basis, wifi broadened that and more powerful smartphones put it over the top everywhere.

Each step of the way focusing on smaller-than-realistic horizons.
The OSS Manuals
Just based on historical experience. On the few things that I know about more than a cursory level the topic is either stale, or not usefully shallow, or incorrect (without attributing malice or incompetence) on Business Insider.

Not sure how to objectively prove my claim. The evaluating source could also be biased? If anyone has a source proving or disproving BIs merit as a news source, would appreciate you sharing it.

PS. No idea what Elon has to do with a random newspaper/blog post. Is this a Peter Thiel / Gawker reference? A Bezos / Washington Post allusion? A Bill Gates / Elon Tesla investment thing? You do know they are different people right, and not all famous/rich people are one homogenous blob indistinguishable from one another. And just in general it’s not clear how being rich / prominent qualifies you to be a noteworthy evaluator of news quality, especially when you’re likely frequently mentioned (probably negatively). Totally unfounded, but since humans are drawn to trauma porn, I’d assume 80%+ of news about billionaires is negative, and I’d further assume that 80%+ of billionaires hate the “common person” news outlets. So therefore I’d particularly be hesitant to take their recommendation of what to read. But that’s just a wild guess.

If you put your code on Github, it's bound by the TOS, which states (https://docs.github.com/en/site-policy/github-terms/github-t...):

Companies broadly will glass ceiling pay for employees who don’t go into higher management roles (exceptions like acquihires exist). So yeah keep adding value but they won’t pay a million a year as a developer. Even if you came up with ideas and executed them and made them millions. It is a commodity market in general.

In this sense you get paid well but they want you to think how to make the shareholders rich (which might be the employee if their lucky but that shareholding or option is rarely contingent on performance but on staying employed until vesting at most)

On the other hand employment is cushy in that you just get paid in less than 30 days and don’t need to think about a bunch of business stuff like marketing or
contract negotiations so hence why it is popular.

Should companies be allowed to have other customers? Should they reduce their prices to cover costs to get to a standardized “market rate” profit for a company. I guess like a co-op.
>would you rather 1) pay more for features you don’t need

I would rather have early adopters pay for features I wouldn't pay for, then after the price comes down, or even relative obsolescence has occurred, I can adopt the full technology at a price I can afford.

The only consumer-beneficial approach to things like this is when the base model which has none of the optional features is still decently high-performance, and priced truly cheap enough for anyone who would be the least bit interested not to hesitate to buy.

If the general consensus is that the bare-bones model is a wonderful bargain and just fine for the vast majority of potential users, then a much more expensive or even overpriced deluxe version geared for the small minority of very well-heeled consumers is sensible.

When it's designed the other way around, the "bare-bones" model ends up being overpriced to some extent by osmosis, nobody ever gets a "good deal" and it's limiting for everybody.

Alternativer take: vendors should get their drivers upstreamed so they don't have to maintain them much. Of course, this also means publishing decent hardware documentation which they should be doing regardless.

Windows did have and to some extent still has many crappy, old drivers that reduce system stability. We don't need to encourage that on Linux.

> That is not the law, you’re just making up things out of whole cloth.

Every US state that I'm aware of makes it a crime to knowingly receive stolen property. Most additionally make it a crime to re-sell stolen property. On top of that, it's a Federal crime if the stolen property crosses state borders.

Here, for example, are NY's statutes on stolen property: Penal Law Ss. 165.40 through 165.65[1] (you'll need to navigate on that page to each section). In particular:

* It is not a sufficient defense to claim that the original thief has not been convicted or identified: § 165.50, bullet 1.

* Possession of stolen property encompasses the intent to sell that property: § 165.55, bullet 1.

> Amazon being generally aware that there is fencing activity happening on their platform does not make Amazon liable.

This implies passivity, when the relationship is an active one. If Amazon was an unstructured marketplace with individual business relationships between buyers and (potentially criminal) sellers, this argument might work. But that's not what FBA is, and it's not how these products are sold (you aren't buying Honest Abe's Big Brand Shampoo, you're buying Amazon-fulfilled Big Brand Shampoo).

Anyone interested in footnotes might like the way we do it on the Vale site, for example: https://verdagon.dev/blog/making-regions-part-1-human-factor

Some nice things:

* The footnotes are off to the side, so it's closer to the text that mentions it and it doesn't interrupt the flow of the main text.

* It uses colors, so it's pretty fast to visually jump to the right one.

* We keep the numbers too, for colorblind folks (and those using blue-light filters like f.lux)

* It works without javascript!

Our markdown->html renderer makes this happen by slicing up the page horizontally, one slice per header. Each slice then has a wide left column for the main text, and a narrow right column for the footnotes. Then if the user happens have javascript enabled, it position:absolute's the footnotes and lines them up a little more precisely with where they're mentioned.

I'm from a working class family, and when I say working class, I mean so working class that most my family doesn't even work. I'm not making this up, I'm simply telling you about something that's unfair that I've been experiencing for years, but because it's not aligning with your narrative you're assuming this is some talking point I've got from the Telegraph...

But what's your point? Are you suggesting I'm lying, or are you suggesting that what I'm describing isn't a problem?

Why is it okay that everyone on benefits in my family has more than those who work? How is that at all reasonable?

Obviously I agree welfare scroungers aren't root cause of the problem. The issue is that we tax income and not wealth, and redistribute wealth from the have-nots (millennials, etc) to boomers (the wealthiest generation in the country). If your a boomer with 10 houses you don't pay any tax on that wealth. You just pay taxes on any income you might decide to take from renting them. This is a large part of the problem. The government tax you when you're trying to work your way up, but if you're already rich you don't have to worry about things like income tax.

Then on top of the broken tax system if you're working class or lower-middle class trying to work your way up you're not even paying for decent things like health care and education you're paying for economic policies that only benefit boomers and a nice standard of living for those abusing the welfare system.

I'm not your enemy here. I want fairer system. I want people in my family to stop seeing having kids and not working as the best path to independence. The suffering I see daily from this is heart-breaking. Drug abuse, prison, damaged kids. And I'm not blaming those on welfare because if you're working class welfare is literally the only way you can ever hope to have your own home. It just drives me insane when the job centre is recommending my family not to work because they'll never make as much as they're getting by being on benefits and not working.

We need to incentivise work by lowering income tax and tightening up the welfare system so it can't be abused as a source of tax-free income. At the same time we should more aggressively tax wealth. Higher stamp duty on second home purchases, higher capital gains tax, higher inheritance taxes, higher taxes on luxury goods etc.

We wouldn't need all this welfare in a economy that prioritises and rewards those who work.

We are getting damn close to that being done through statute in the U.S.

> AI-based programming assistants strip away any attribution while drawing from the underlying contributions of the community ... we believe that the open source community is based on principles of taking and giving back to the collective

How is this behavior different than 90% of human coders? Most SW devs scream if you ask them to pay for something, whether its apps, code, TV, movies, etc. But they will happily try to build startups on top of a vast mountain of free code. I really don't care if my code gets sucked up by the AI vacuum, humans have been doing that quite well for awhile now.

I've only worked at 2 different mid-sized US tech companies but they both had "we expect you to work full-time, full-time is defined as 38-40 hours of work". Even if they didn't explicitly have that, if you're working a full-time job then that means you're working at least 30 hours otherwise it's not a full-time job by definition alone.

> Every US state that I'm aware of makes it a crime to knowingly receive stolen property

For mens rea you’d need to know that the specific property you are receiving is stolen. Not that some of the amazon-scale quantities of property you’re receiving is inherently going to be stolen.

> This implies passivity, when the relationship is an active one

Doesn’t matter, Amazon still isn’t aware.
A lot of people learned to code from completely free materials on the internet. In fact, it's actually amazing how much free learning resources there are on the internet. That's how we create a good internet ecosystem, not by making everyone pay for every little thing.

Teaching AI how to code is a continuation of building this ecosystem because people will use these generative AI coding tools, lowering the bar to code.
I see that your lawyers have reviewed the licensing terms. Great!

However, have they reviewed Microsoft's claims that their use of code for Copilot is open source? And if they have, is there somewhere I can read that analysis?

Now, Microsoft could be wrong on that claim, but until someone convinces me otherwise I'm going to assume their lawyers did their due diligence and they're correct. If Microsoft is correct about that it doesn't matter what you put in your license, and thus this is useless.
That wouldn't license code. That's just license text that happens to be in a string. Not sure why this bugfix site is being used instead of just pastebin with text.
Why Britain is a world leader in offshore wind
I really wish this went somewhere. I’ve followed England since then and even tried to read his published book. It’s, unfortunately, mainly an attempt to derive this observation from orthodox Jewish mythologies. What inspired you to post it?
Right you are. I ran across that quote in her collection "The Suppressed Madness of Sane Men". She included the quote but not the paper. I thought it was amazing, so I wanted to read the paper—which was not easy to find. Eventually someone dug me up a copy, and it turned out that the quote was the only interesting thing in it. But what a quote. I don't know of anything more relevant.

If any of you want to explore Marion Milner, the place to start is "A Life of One's Own"- a work of original genius: https://www.amazon.com/Life-Ones-Own-Marion-Milner/dp/041555....

> people throw tens or hundreds of dollars. Not tens of millions of dollars. Big difference

Nope. I’ve been close to New York, California and Wyoming federal politics for a short bit. There is always someone throwing big money in a bill market. They get suave dinners and photo shoots. But nobody takes what they’re saying seriously. Enough is done, in private, to keep the dollars rolling. But for powerful incumbents, there are more big donors than swing senators. (The non-swing guys can’t push the margin. But they still get dollars, because the point is the photo shoot.)
It shouldn't even hinge on a TOS.

If Microsoft loses this case, it actually means Microsoft wins and we all lose.

Who has a large enough corpora of training data? Only institutional copyright holders.

This is probably going to play out like Oracle vs. Google when Google suddenly realized that they should lose and intentionally threw the case.

I'm so worried about this case. Treating copyrighted training data as fair use, and letting models learn as a child might learn from a book or movie, is the best way to proceed. It widens the playing field for both development and disruption.
But you can just use the stalking tool from yesterday.
