I guess you can believe that, but that's a very narrow definition of "buy" and certinaly more narrow than both the dictionary definition and common usage.

Under your definition you can't buy a ticket to a concert, or buy pharmacuticals if a doctor gives you a perscription, but most people would say that you could buy those things.
Can you ask them why they pay their teachers so little? I would think a CS lecturer is more valuable than your run of the mill admin.
I figure if you want to send out a signal that can be distinguished from background radiation at tens or hundreds of light years, your best bet would be to detonate gigaton-scale nukes in space in some sort of mathematically interesting pattern.

Or manufacture a few billion tons of some exotic element that doesn't exist in nature and dump it into the sun on a regular basis. But it looks like somebody else might have already had that idea.

I wonder if doing something like the xor thing that people are doing with LLaMa fine tunes would be enough (though you’d probably want something a bit more secure, I feel like you could recover the data form just an xor of two completely different types of data)

That seems fair to everyone but that doesn’t necessarily say anything about if it’s legal
Copyright laws mostly covers the assets (images, texts, etc) and the actual implementation. If you happen to make your own implementation that leads to the same output when compiled, that would be considered fair use in most situations. As long as you didn't copy from the original source code as long as you're not distributing the assets or the compiled version, the copyright holder can't stop you from distributing your own work.

ReactOS and Wine exists and are reimplementations of copyrighted code.

‘The flattening’: tech sector calls time on middle managers
Ask HN: Should someone who just missed a flight that later crashed feel lucky?
Maybe the flight would not have crashed if the person made the flight (e.g., due to forking universes and/or the butterfly effect)?

Or maybe due to a deterministic universe, there was never a possibility that they would make the flight?

Iirc there are some that are literal direct ripoffs (exact same sets with a ELGO or some obvious ripoff brand) that appeared at a time, and were pretty obviously run off of a Chinese Lego line (I believe Lego got them shut down by winning a copyright case in China).

The quality of off-brand is way up in the last 20 years but it’s still not the same; they run the molds way too long.
The thing I can't get is how it falls in gravity (rate of acceleration in a gravity field is mass independent), but pulls a spring upward.
Mann v competitive enterprise institute recognizes that a jury would find their comments as deragatory, false and damaging, and the suit was dropped because Mann delayed the proceedings as he was "busy with other things".

No where was his data found fraudulent - the court recognized that Mr.Ball's statements are derogatory. The delay is a technicality that has nothing to do with science.

The article you linked is very inflamatory and makes this seem much more of a big deal than it is - nowhere do they discuss the court decision itseld, but they bring up more than 3 scientists from the 90's shitting on climate change.

Good luck trying to prove to any judge in the world that you came up with an implementation that happens to be exactly the same as the original game code, down to the same checksum, by pure chance.

What is this, "the ChatGPT defense"? Do you really think that code has intrinsically less right to copyright than art, or what?

Clean room reimplementations that don't even dare to look at the copyrighted code.

I agree. It's probably better to switch to more complete material once you're advanced enough. What unit are you at? I'm at unit 19. Just want to get an idea of when that transition is gonna happen.

> It also has a really aggravating focus on idiomatic translations for phrases that don’t really map to the real meanings.

I agree with you there. I suppose that's a problem inherent to any "translation based" learning?

In any case I do make an effort to avoid that problem. I try to understand sentences mentally without translating them at all. I look up the words and kanji and study their etymology. I even tried to study the individual components of each kanji, figuring that there was some logic to them, but I'm told that's a dead end more often than not.

1) Entrenched market leaders

2) Leader in terms of quality

3) Good product design and successful branding deals

4) Difficulty of starting a dedicated competitor includes high startup costs (mold making is veeeery expensive)

5) There are competitors, but since startup costs are high even they aren't super cheap, and some have quality control problems, not as much piece variety, etc.
This is a moot point if you understand how capitalism works and the goal of corporate executives: ensuring maximum value for shareholders. As I’ve mentioned before, Google employees own a large amount of stock compare to the average person. Consequently, they will benefit no matter what

> On the contrary this war is Putin's multiyear bet on Russia's useful idiots in the West.

It's not even that complicated. His bet was that the West would respond the same as we did with Georgia, Chechenya, and the Donbas/Crimean invasion of 2014.

It was 'safe' to assume that the West would react the same with a complete invasion of Ukraine. Seems like not.

If Putin was smart, he would have gracefully pulled out of this. But seems like he much rather want to turn his country into a new North Korea.
I never saw that thing.

Iirc the samsonite factories mainly did packaging of bulk bricks sent from Europe. But they may have made some of the other parts.

There's no grammar, and thus no arbitrary construction of concepts beyond the fixed literal vocabulary. Without meaning in word order, there's no difference between "what the cat ate" and "what ate the cat". I wouldn't call it "language" for the same reason I wouldn't call HTML "programming". It does something adjacent, has some superficial similarities, but its limited in what it can ultimately be used for.
Not much. Apple wanted eSIM for years but carriers fought them over it. They like the physical lock-in of SIM cards. Customers can't easily switch because they have to wait for a SIM to ship or go to a carrier's brick and mortar presence to replace it.

Now? People can switch carriers while in their living room. Takes a matter of minutes. Absolutely frictionless.

I'd say like with most things, simply going through the material is not enough. You need to follow the tips like reading the script out loud. This has had major impact on my ability to learn and furthermore speak the language.

I've been using Duolingo daily for soon 3 years (pro user), approx. 30 min, learning Japanese. Although I also use other apps for deeper knowledge and understanding of the grammar, I would be lying if I said duo didn't work for me.
I understand most of what I've learned so far although reading is still a challenge, especially text with more complex kanji in it.

You say you've gone through the course but is that still true? at least today there are 810 quests, each with a meter for you to fill up.

Id be shocked if you got through all that and still didn't know how to count to ten.

Duolingo is no silver bullet. You still need to be really interested in learning, practice as much as possible and last but not least, investigate and deep dive into the grammar.

In case you're interested, here are the other apps I use for learning Japanese.
- KanjiGarden, for memorizing kanji
- Takoboto, my favorite dictionary
- Renshuu, good for deeper explanation of grammar

I came here to say this- I toured the Enfield facility, as LEGO sponsored my robotics team. They had a whole manufacturing setup there. Everyone was kind of pissed that they closed it when they did.
Microsoft thought ActiveX was a good idea because they built Internet Explorer out of OLE and COM. Everything in that era of Windows was built to be embeddable and composable - "compound documents" being the original design goal. If you needed to stick, say, a video into a web page, COM/OLE was the obvious way to do that on Windows in 1996. It's not any different from, say, early Firefox extensions being built out of XUL - in fact, I recall XUL extensions for Firefox that would literally add ActiveX support back in. It wasn't until Chrome came along where extensions didn't get to muck about with browser internals.

You can exploit in both native and browser contexts. Most jailbreaks nowadays are assisted by a native application that you dev-sign to deliberately pwn yourself with. In the past we had websites that you could use to jailbreak with. Both are sandboxed environments with significant attackable surface area, so one is not necessarily more trustworthy than the other purely on measures of exploitability.
Especially since we all have PFAS and microplastics in us at this point. There is no PFAS- and microplastics-free blood.
I want to try this but the context problem seems a bit hard to solve, you probably need to have a mental model of the whole program at once
There's also a real friction here with modern devops tooling. We have great off the shelf patterns now for doing blue/green deployments, monitoring, etc. Having to run a migration every time you want to update some business logic feels a lot worse even if it has some marginal benefits in terms of single source of truth.
Yes, especially near the end. You need to stop eating when the first rays of light can be seen which is a few hours before sunrise.

Great observation. I'm trying to figure out why that is. Couple guesses:

* The staff actually knew what they were talking about and less salesy than they are today
Congratulations on the most toxic, astroturfed site on the internet I guess
This is really cool. I'm personally most interested in the event scripting system as there's not a lot of documentation for developing those for systems with constrained ram (where you want a lot of stuff to be stored and read directly from ROM and not a lot of dynamic allocation ..if any!)
Most embedded scripting projects reimplement languages like javascript which aren't very well suited for these conditions. Mostly intended to be run standalone instead of enhancing a running application.
Actually, I might look at those Zelda decompilations as well now that people are bringing them up.
Superior functionality exclusively in the EU — USB-C, side-loading — is a good thing. It will remind US folks that the law is a powerful mechanism for making simple, non-controversial changes that improve everyone’s quality of life; but which corporations would otherwise refuse to accept. BTW — LAAS (lobbying-as-a-service) should probably exist.
RAV4 and HR-V came out in 1990s, somehow I doubt doubt they had any off-road equipment installed in the base even of the 4WD trims. Very few people looked for off-road capabilities indeed, this is why the unibody "crossovers" exploded in the 90s as they are more practical than station wagons (which almost disappeared since then) and minivans in many cases.
I mean look at lead.

It’s more a review of his recurring meetings which is definitely useful but will probably not get you very far when it comes to solving your time issue.

The real trick is at the end of the article when he talks about shifting from bi-weekly to tri-weekly: stop attending meetings you don’t need to attend, be ruthless with your priorities to focus on what really matters, delegate a lot.
Since the vesting is done you own your shares and could work zero hours and still be entitled to them. The hard work you did over the 5 years as they vested means something.

But, if you want your co-founder to like his situation and work hard to make the company keep going I see this as like doing another round.

You need to raise X and valuation Y and dilute yourself accordingly. i.e. the company is in crisis because one of the co-founders is sort of leaving. To make up for that, raise some capital. Figure out the amount needed to raise and then work backwards from that number.
You can say similar things about any API based development though. Triggers are just a part of the database API.

Welcome to What Bikes Win, an experiment that hopes to bring fellow bikers together for healthy debate and ultimately some fun.

Just a nit: Why does the site spin to load when you enter it? It could use static caching to make it more seamless.
This isn't even the mistake. Price has very little relation to costs - except that most products can't be sold below cost, at least not for long.

The price of the iphone is a good example. All the costs that you name exist, but they are completely irrelevant. Apple sells the iPhone for a thousand dollars because enough people still buy them at that price.
If knowledge intent is found.

Probably not.
Other parts of the world with district heating don't leak steam. Is it just because they use (liquid) water and not steam?

The water is still plenty hot enough for steam to form in leaks, so there's perhaps some factor that makes leaks more tolerable in steam systems? Different corrosion concerns perhaps, air leaking in is less corrosive?
Except Google Cloud has been on a pretty steady trajectory for about 15 years now...
I like skeuomorphic designs much better, personally. There’s an argument to be made that they also offer more affordances than the normally featureless flat designs.
A problem with that is that you sometimes need to consider the context of the whole program at once and things in different files so limited context length is an issue
Assets are not included in the process, which helps a lot. It still requires the original ROM to compile a ROM. Nintendo has heavily went against PC ports, even as far as having videos about them taken down on YouTube, but never even attempted to touch the root decomp projects for various titles. Later games you can get into more trouble because EULAs or on screen warnings started restricting reverse engineering, as well as DRM mechanisms which are impossible to reverse engineer without being implicated as also advertising a way to work around them.
When there's a fork and disagreement over who "owns" the name, that's drama.

Just sounds like opinion slated as something more. Duolingo was superior to Memrise for me. Memrise moved too slowly with no options to jump ahead back when I used it. At best, it's the same app.

> pretty much any YouTube series on learning language X is far better than Duolingo. Even browsing newspapers in language X paired with Google Translate is a far more productive experience than grinding on Duolingo.

How do apps like Memrise/Duolingo compete with things that require far more effort like reading articles? How many people using Duolingo while they poop were ever going to open up BBC Mundo and look up every 3 words with Google Translate?

I don't see how that makes sense. It's like saying Duolingo is worse than enrolling in a 6-week immersion program. Okay.
> The DMCA explicitly says you're allowed to do this sort of thing for interoperability

It simply does not, specially in the US where EULAs can force you to sign away rights you may otherwise have e.g. https://www.eff.org/issues/coders/reverse-engineering-faq

But this is not reverse engineering, this is outright decompiling the copyrighted code, and then distributing it.
Fun fact: there is no legal precedent in the US that states that clean room RE is required to avoid copyright infringement. It’s just been assumed.
Introducing PyPI Organizations
Why would a quick win of Ukraine suddenly change the political landscape in Russia? Russians don't protest now, so why would they suddenly start doing that?

However, a weak Russia cannot keep regions that want to break away. Russia as we know it now is not going to exist anymore. Not because they would suddenly overthrow the current government (which they won't). But because plenty of 'friendly' neighbor states might cut connections, and controlled regions might see a brighter future on their own. They are not going to nuke them because of this.

Russia turning into a new North Korea is unfortunately almost a given right now, since the Russian public doesn't seem motivated to protest and demand another government.
Usb-c sounds cool for now. But what about when a new port comes out and Apple can’t use it because the EU still mandates to use the old one?
It's one thing to provide security in the kindergarden. It's another thing to provide security in the jail. So far Apple's track record is kindergarden security. They do have tech in place, but how that tech would resist big bad world outside the wall remains to be seen. My guess would be that there will be apps breaking the jails in the first years and 10 years later things will settle on and it'll become relatively safe to sideload untrusted apps.

Of course if one's smart enough to only download apps from reputable websites, then the only worry will be privacy issues which are probably not important for most people
