attempts are laudable, but ... towards which "neutral"?

(this is where a closed forum, like a mailing list, has an easier time: one can aim for "what is generally acceptable among the known readership". To Kill A Mockingbird has a wonderful illustration of code switching, but was recently unacceptable to quote on a forum dealing with under- and over-class biases, both explicit and implicit, exactly because it literally used the n-word, and not only did it use it, but needed to do so, demonstrating the lines between in- and out-group usage. When it came to forum policy, the distinction between use and mention was lost.)

This isn't about privacy, it is about licensing (and possibly copyright). mhitza mentioned privacy as another policy, that you agree to upon sign-up like the terms of service, one for which updates are regularly announced.

> I'm also curious how you're certain your project was used?

Hasn't it been suggested that all public repositories at least could have been used? It makes sense to give the training pool as much information as possible.
Most USG agencies did not have programs similar to COINTELPRO. The FBI is the USG secret police and as such share they same set of problems other secret police have in other countries - since secret police suppress internal dissent with tactics veiled in secrecy, they are able to violate human rights much more easily than agencies that have more openness and less political valence.
What's interesting is subjective.

It was never worth it to go to the halfway points before. Slower progress in RAM (and a higher proportion of large system cost being RAM) makes it more worthwhile to fine tune this. I think it's interesting because it's yet another symptom that we're just not getting more density of memories-- now it's justified for memory controllers to be slightly fancier to deal with this.

I wish I could have more readily built a 96GB system instead of the 128GB one that I just did. I wanted overkill (more than 64GB), but I didn't need 2x overkill.

Looks pretty awesome, definitely see this as a nice clickup replacements for small projects where clickup might be a little bloated/overkill.

I really like the nesting, as that's often how my mind works and why I like notion-like things where you can build nested workflows. However, w/ clickup I feel you get nesting but it's often more like hyperlinks so you don't always get to see hierarchy and how things relate, where this you get a more birds-eye view of how everything is linked to each other via the nesting/folder-like structure. Both have their pros and cons, clickup's being it can be a bit more like a wiki meets trello+notion, but again finding things is a bit more chaotic.
Yeah, I don't think that's in contrast to what I said.

> Unfortunately wealthy established homeowners don't want more people to near to them so they vote against any and all change.

Sometimes poor established renters also don't want change.

In the 20th century a lot of cities grew practically 'out of nowhere'. Why has that stopped? That's a great pressure relief valve and gets new buyers/renters out of a vicious feedback loop caused by the tendency of already cash-or-property-rich people to concentrate resources.

"The opportunity/jobs are there" is historically the answer, for millennia of cities. But does it have to be that forever? In the 20th century US, there were a lot of explicit government interventions and such that caused things like the defense industry to sprawl across countless different states and counterbalance it. What would that look like in a post-2020 world?
Generally odd numbers of blades are better for vibration.

I know that in wind turbines they are favored because it reduces the effect of the blade crossing the tower. When one of the blades in a three blade wind turbine crosses over the tower the force on it is reduced (since the wind is already slowed by the presence of the tower). The other two blades are in maximum loading, but balance much of their forces against each other reducing the bending moment on the turbine shaft.

I remember when all my friends in high school got into MtG. They wanted me to play, and I said, "okay, but I'm going to make my own cards." You know, xerox some cards and laminate them myself. I was cheap. I wasn't about to pay real money for a bunch of fancy cardboard.

None of them would go for it. I tried and tried to get them to understand that there wasn't anything special about the WotC cards, I said "You know there are no real wizards at Wizards of the Coast, right?" These are "magic" cards, not magic cards, eh? But they wouldn't have it.

I gotta hand it to these folks. They convinced a generation that you have to pay them to use your own imagination. Maybe they are real wizards?

Yes. Google's argument that software APIs weren't copyrightable because of the idea-expression divide didn't find purchase. It won the case on other (fair use grounds). Indeed, if you read the opinion closely, there are a few places where it looks like there used to be a section in the opinion on software API copyrightability (given Breyer was the author, noncopyrightability is probably more apt) that was ripped out in later drafts, presumably because there wasn't the votes for it.

> if an ad is straight facts

How would you determine this? Distinguishing fact from opinion is impossibly difficult, just ask social media companies.

Besides, ads are supposed to be manipulative, otherwise they wouldn't be nearly as effective. Taken to its extreme, and with the capabilities of adtech, it's no wonder they're used for propaganda, to influence elections, etc. None of this spreads "new information" meant to educate people, but mostly falsehoods with a specific agenda from anyone willing to pay for it.

In addition to being impossible to determine what constitutes as propaganda or not, fact-checking ads would go against their whole purpose, against all the "progress" the advertising industry has made in the past century, and would crumble the current adtech giants. Hell freezing over has better chances of happening.

> More philosophically, should we, as free-willed people, be prevented from seeing "untruths"?

If those "untruths" are used to psychologically manipulate people to get them to buy, vote or think a certain way, then I'd argue that they're doing a net harm to society, and should be heavily regulated.

We can't control and fact-check speech, but we can limit its spread. What the internet has allowed is an unprecedented way of spreading information, and we can certainly control that. The difficult thing is again, determining what is "harmful" or not.
The Venus missions...

One way rendezvous - 80 days is the minimal - https://trajbrowser.arc.nasa.gov/traj_browser.php?NEAs=on&NE...

If you're just doing a flyby and letting the ship then get lost, it can get down to 48 days https://trajbrowser.arc.nasa.gov/traj_browser.php?NEAs=on&NE...

The one way flyby is not likely one that would be good for human travelers as you aren't really stopping (or even slowing down enough to get captured).

The shortest round trips are just over a year long. https://trajbrowser.arc.nasa.gov/traj_browser.php?NEAs=on&NE...

The trip there is only 90 days, but the return leg is one of the least optimal options with a 280 day "climb back out" trip. You could do a 96 day there, and 80 day back, but to get the right orbital arrangement it then means that you'd need to stay at Venus for 1.3 years.

It is a neat thing to play with and see what options exist.

That's one way of looking at it. Another way is that Nest built subpar products that was hurting Google's brand, and eventually its leader got pushed out.

Anyone remember the glorious video of a bunch of Nests screaming "Can't be hushed here"? Made by another Google employee. I guess, if you're used to being able to tell everyone to just work late night, having someone in your company publicly calling you out for making horrible products is not something you'd cherish.

An empire can't retain hostile and unpacified territory beyond a certain limit - which may be set by time, communications, access to local resources and imported logistics, other factors, and all of the above.

If the territory is fully pacified with no significant resistance and/or it's run by dedicated loyalists with plentiful local resources the limit doesn't apply.

Basically an empire can only retain territory against an active threat or resistance within certain limits. If there is no active threat, or the threat is too minor to be a concern, the territory can be considered stable and fully colonised.

This is true of any image based development, as well. You can get the same thing in Java with hotswapping code, even.

That is to say, this is a bit of a concern, but isn't typically as large of one as you'd think. There are plenty of ways to make it so that you can't reason about a program. In general, you avoid doing those things.

Specifically to your question, I think, the biggest trick is that you rarely use the REPL as where you type your code. For that, you typically still use files and eval the file into the environment controlled by a repl. Even in emacs, you rarely just execute elisp from the scratch buffer. Unless you know it is something you don't care to keep, of course. Instead, you are working with files and evaluate the file on a regular basis.
> I don’t understand how it would be trademark or copyright infringement saying “go buy those people’s book and look up information there”.

It's a violation of the OGL. So you can opt out of the OGL (and opt out of reprinting verbatim rules), try it, sell it, and see what happens:

> Use of Product Identity: You agree not to Use any Product Identity, including as an indication as to compatibility, except as expressly licensed in another, independent Agreement with the owner of each element of that Product Identity.

...

> The following items are designated Product Identity, as defined in Section 1(e) of the Open Game License Version 1.0a, and are subject to the conditions set forth in Section 7 of the OGL, and are not Open Content: Dungeons & Dragons, D&D, Player’s Handbook, Dungeon Master, Monster Manual, ...

This is why so many OGL works contain phrases like "core rule books of the 5th edition of the world's most popular pen and paper RPG" instead of "Monster Manual p. 132".

> Source books don’t do that. They say “so and so, neutral good, ac: 12” It is expected from the DM reading them that they already know what this kind of shorthand mean.

You're right, those are too generic of examples. Here are some real-world ones I've had to deal with as an OGL author:

- What are the mechanical ramifications of a sentient magic item with the Crusader special purpose that's engaging in a Conflict with its wielder?

- A creature has Burrow. Can they burrow through stone?

- "Eldritch Blast". Is it PI because of "Eldritch"? Is it OGL because one version of the SRD named it but omitted its mechanics?

- How do you sustain the spell effect of a Crown of Madness? Is that OGL because one version of the SRD omitted that paragraph?

- A dwarf has Dwarven Combat Training. What kind of hammer can they throw?

- Does the Grappler feat grant two or three benefits? If it's two, but your DMs' copy of the source text has three, which benefit was removed via errata? Do you assume your players/DMs even have the errata?

What you reference isn't always a detail you can assume the DM (sorry, GM) has available. The official SRD also isn't entirely OGL, and the contents of the SRD don't always match the text of their source works.

So when something you add to your setting, or to a creature or item, relies on the details an OGL/SRD wrinkle, do you play it safe and stick to what's covered by the OGL? Find something else? Ditch the OGL, rewrite all of the complicated interactions from scratch, and wind up creating a new game?

If you're a third-party publisher making three figures and paying freelancers by the word, do you tell the writer, "Sure, go ahead and rewrite all of the related rules from scratch", or do you tell them to stick to what's most clearly covered by the OGL?

> I decided to look for open Developer positions, to work with a team of experienced developers so I can learn even faster.

Good idea -- working in a team that has a few experienced developers provides a great way to rapidly learn - both to improve technical skills but also get experience and start to learn all the other skills required to be useful on real world software projects. A great environment for learning might be one where the team spends all or most of the time working from a central office. It can sometimes also be good to find a team where you're not the only junior developer, and there's a healthy ratio of junior to senior developers.

That said, one potential benefit of college is the opportunity of gaining exposure to topics or fields you might find very interesting, but don't know about yet. But you always have the option of changing your mind after a year or five of working on software projects in industry, and working in industry may also give you an idea of a particular niche you want to specialise in.

Best of luck!
