> It is not unlawful to plug a DVD player into your iPod and play the DVD back digitally though. That's basically what Dolphin is doing - it runs unmodified disc images, copy protection and all.

If it can play disc images with copy protection, it de facto requires a way around that copy protection that is unlicensed, slamming it squarely into Section 1201.

> The emulator should be clean, outside of any legal complaints about "damages".

Dolphin contains Nintendo decryption keys; which is actually very likely illegal when the rest of the emulator is not. Recall 09 F9…

A competing emulator developer (for Citra) has also commented on this and said what Dolphin did there was legally dangerous and very much not endorsed by courts.

> Their commercial product is allowed to create iOS VMs on unofficial hardware.

If you read the ruling, the fair use won because Corellium successfully argued there was no way that their product could impact Apple in any substantial negative way in the general market. They also argued that their products do not perform as substitutes to any products that Apple provides. And lastly, their products offer a unique benefit for a unique, niche, special interest, with vetting and similar procedures to ensure only people with those interests used their software.

If, however, they had done that to make their own smartphones, or a general iOS emulator for playing games on PC, they would have been annihilated. Nintendo easily has a case that emulation causes substantial financial and business harm; and that emulation can serve as a replacement for their products. Courts don’t like that.

Edit (“posting too fast”):

Unlike the GameCube, Wii games are digitally signed and encrypted.

This specific line of code contains the illegal key:

https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/blob/34527cadcce49a9a...

As the developer of Citra (above) noted, big no-no. The emulator is legally fine, but encryption keys are a no-go. Bleam was OK because keys were not involved. Every case that has involved keys for a non-extremely-specific use (Psystar, RealPlayer, VidAngel) has gone down in flames.
The Terra Museum of American Art[1] was a fantastic collection of art. I was a co-worker of the former director, so got lots of back story. It's sad to see it gone since Dan Terra's passing.

The Time Museum in Rockford, Illinois[2] was another interesting museum that is no more.

The Mount Horeb Mustard Museum was closed when we visited the town (on a Tuesday)... it's since moved and is apparently still alive near Madison, Wisconsin[3]

Further afield - SF-88 is a former Nike Missile site north of San Francisco. The SALT treaty resulted in the removal of Nike sites in protective rings around many industrial centers in the US. This is the one museum site remaining allowed in the treaty.[4]

Every time this pops up, I'm reminded of the day that the NPM registry started returning 418 responses for users accessing it via corporate HTTP proxies.

I remember being at a training course that day and my manager asking me what we could do to fix it because our CI was failing to pull dependencies from NPM.

Trying to explain that NPM was returning a status code intended as an April Fools joke and which was never meant to see the light of production was quite difficult

Perhaps I can fix a lot of things but debugging a response code that isn't meant to exist is not one of them.

Agreed that learning intervals and chord tone degrees is important. It is indeed supported by having familiarity with the underlying notes since they comprise the chords and scales.

Learning the fretboard helps players to find chords and chord inversions further up the neck. For example, the player knows they can move the E shape to the barre A position, which preserves all of the interval relationships from a new root.

Knowing the fretboard notes is a bit like playing in daylight rather than campfire darkness.

You could maybe build and run User-Mode Linux on FreeBSD, and run that in a jail. That's pretty close to your own interpretation of "Linux kernel in a jail"

But to be real: that's obviously not what was meant. If someone wants to install and run Ubuntu inside a FreeBSD jail, it is well possible to do that. Nobody really cares if it's running kernel.org code, just that the binaries are running as expected.

I read the DoE biography of Rickover while I was doing my undergrad in Physics at the Naval Academy in the 90s. At that time there were still Navy Captains who had interviewed with Rickover. And I've read pretty much everything I could since. I would say the lessons left behind are more for managers, unfortunately most managers will never read them. They're too busy showing how they can do more with less. Cutting corners is their method.

Most doctors/vets I've seen recently are just massively overbooked. You wait 3 hours, then you have 4 minutes of conversation time for one (out of multiple) ailments before you’re booted out the door. Its like you're on an assembly line and the workers can't even keep up.
That’s trout abuse.
First and foremost - suspend any disbelief about whether you can solve it. This is hugely important. If it has a solution and you are going to be able to solve it, then it needs your full undivided attention and focus and motivation in order to make the best progress. The possibility that it doesn't have a solution and/or you aren't able to find one is the pathological case - you should only be concerned about the successful strategy and not be spending time on the pathological one. Secondly, be aware that difficult problems which haven't already been solved are unsolved for a reason. Be willing to be patient and dedicated to a long term investment of energy and time on your part to work on it
A very large portion of the world is already vegetarian.
Making clear what you choices are communicates to your neighbors and eventually elected reps what your inclinations are.

I currently run a micro-saas product on a $4 a month namecheap server using the LAMP stack. It runs fast for all 34 companies, or 400+ employees, using it.

Ah, but those sites are often the top Search results if you search for a distinctive phrase from the assignments. The student may not pay for access, but they will certainly be presented with tantalizing snippets of many solutions.

And many of those solutions are bad ones. They may contain B.S., wrong answers, and things students didn't learn with the class resources. If you copy/paste one of the solutions, you may evade detection and earn a "C".
Applications developers often tell me about (to quote another post here) "the lurching tedium" of cloud infrastructure development.

Growing up in a datacenter, opening tickets and checking them weekly, hoping for the vendor to finally ship the right backplane; datacenter engineering used to take weeks, months, years. Waiting 30 seconds for terraform plan to check 120 resources which corresponds to thousands of pounds of metal and enough wattage to blow up the city I live in... doesn't seem too bad. That said, I understand where you javascript folks are coming from with your iteration loops, but still, you've gotten understand: it's so easy now.

Leaky abstraction, sure. But it's always great to see innovation in cloud infra.
Perhaps the first level of the game should start closer to the nut in the campfire zone. This is an important zone to understand and shows wear on many guitars. Players then use that as the basis to venture into open wilderness, e.g., by using octave patterns to identify matching notes on different frets.
That's funny, rewriting history is commonly seen as a left-wing past time (see 1619 project, renaming of military bases and schools, removal of statues, etc)
No one can tell you much about that. Interpretability is still very poor.

You don't know what they learn beforehand (else deep learning wouldn't be necessary) so you have to try and figure it out afterwards.

But artificial parameters aren't beholden to any sort of "explainabilty rule". No guarantee anything is wired in a way for humans to comprehend. And even if it was, you're looking at hundreds of billions of parameters potentially.
> If it can play disc images with copy protection

> Dolphin contains Nintendo decryption keys

I don't believe it does. Wii U emulator CEMU requires them to boot, and Citra the 3DS emulator also requires them. The Wii seems to have no copy protection to speak of, besides it's rudimentary disk check/hashing routine. I'd love to be proven wrong on this, though.

> the fair use won because Corellium successfully argued there was no way that their product could impact Apple in any substantial way regarding security research

> Nintendo easily has a case that emulation causes substantial financial and business harm

So did Sony. Bleem even used screenshots of their official, licensed games to advertise their commercial alternative to owning a Playstation, and a judge deemed it lawful: https://scholar.google.co.uk/scholar_case?case=1183722407805...

From the appeal:

> To the extent Bleem merely approximates what the PlayStation games look like, by generating screen shots through a process of degrading a computer image, it is simply creating a simulation. If Bleem insists on generating simulated approximations of Sony's games, there is no need for Bleem to use Sony's copyrighted material whatsoever.

Again - there is still ambiguity in these rulings, especially for modern console emulators. It's easy to scare Steam into taking this down since Valve doesn't want to take the fall for emulators. That being said, a true cease-and-desist scenario for Dolphin is likely unlawful, given the precedent and context.

Edit in response to your edit: Citra's developer is right - this is brazen. But it's also a legal can of worms Nintendo cannot guarantee a win on. Their claim is that it violates the Copyright Act, which they would then have to defend against the DMCA amendments that give explicit protections to many classes of usage. If "the key" is their objection, Nintendo's copyright complaint will be about as effective as the DeCSS moratorium.
It’s still a bad practice to blur information that supposed to be hidden.
> Personally I believe members of that group to be below valueless.

Well, this seems like an extreme attitude that doesn't account for a large swath of how the world actually works, and is often gotten to that point by personal bias and not questioning beliefs constructively.

Its flawed because its an overgeneralization.

To provide an example, are there people that have been wrongfully convicted. Have any of those people been put to death as a result of those convictions. Assume for a second that you are one of those persons, and 12 people based upon some judge or skewed evidence chose that. Are you valueless? Who chose that you would be convicted? Wrong place at the wrong time?

There's a movie with Russel Crowe called The Next Three Days. It covers this type of premise. We never have absolute information, we have interpretations which are just as malleable as a game of telephone.

As for your ideas on value systems and integrity and self-worth, there are contradictions and its a bit convoluted. It fails to make distinctions between things within and outside your control, and the ever present ability of others to deceive sometimes even without their knowledge.

There is way too much money involved for anyone with the capability to not get into the area. Intel is starving for growth opportunities, investing heavily into the GPU space and very enterprise oriented.

AMD is shitting the bed but might find partners in this space.

Apple is a dark horse and they are very much into the on-device AI abilities.

Amazon, Microsoft, Google can all throw endless amounts of software and hardware at the problem and there have been many advances in the AI space regarding training smaller models that can compete with the big ones.

Open source is going nuts in this space, as well as a ton of academic research. This is likely the biggest dark horse. Major advances are happening weekly.

Do you mean basic science research? Evaluating academic medical research is considered a core competency for physicians.

This is factually incorrect.

However, population studies don't show a higher rate of GERD/stomach ulcers for groups who report eating spicier food.

For me, it turned out I was reacting to something in my well water and a bit after switching to bottled water, I could go back to chocolate/coffee/alcohol/spicy food with no problems.

People nowadays are interested in more than slut-shaming archetypes. As the article mentions, that image was created by the Romans and advanced by European patriarchy, both to demean her for the social crime of having sexual agency by portraying her as an agent of sexual corruption, and to "put her in her place" relative to male rulers, who were allowed to be more than the sum of their sexual exploits. That Cleopatra alone is known primarily for the men she slept with in the context of a time when sex was a common lever of power for all rulers is problematic.

Even if one wants to portray Cleopatra as a tragic figure and assuming, as the article claims, her prowess as a ruler and political strategist is a bit overblown, there's nothing wrong with adding some depth and dimension to her. That's the sort of thing that would usually be denounced as "woke."

Hmm...if you mean, would it be better or worse if they distributed the Looking Glass add-on in an automatically installed update, I think that would be...roughly equivalent? I feel like they're breaking some sort of implicit social contract: my browser shouldn't automatically install add-on software not foundational to its operation that I didn't ask for.

If you mean would it be better or worse if they did a more traditional pop-up ad promotion for Mr. Robot like they did for their VPN service...I dunno, unfortunately I've grown to expect new Firefox releases to have found excuses for promoting Mozilla services, even though I've done a fair amount of work to try to disable all that nonsense.

At the end of the day, it's all pretty gross really. What I'd really like is a way to pay Mozilla actual money in a way that ensured it was directed solely at development of Firefox in exchange for not doing any of this stuff to me. But for some reason this doesn't seem possible.

The lobbying problem is worse than usual in the US, because you chose to make corporate lobbying constitutionally protected speech. That made proper regulation of it impossible. And then it's difficult to change the decision, because it was made by the Supreme Court, which has somehow assumed a significant legislative role. In principle, it would be possible to change the Constitution, but that is also more difficult in the US than in most other countries.

Structural issues like these are a major reason for the inefficiency of American bureaucracy. You chose to shape your society in a certain way, and these are some of the consequences.

Just to add to the other voices: executing untrusted code can be extremely dangerous. There’s so many ways to shoot yourself in the foot. I’m not sure if container boundaries are sufficient but each repl shouldn’t share a namespace with the others at the very least.

The average right now is terrible for pretty much everything in the world. Fishermen in Greenland can send their fish to china to have it gutted, then sent to Norway to have it packaged, and then sent to USA to be sold. An avocado can have a piece of rain forest burned up, grown using fertilizers produced in Germany, which in turn is using natural gas mined in Russia. The avocado then get shipped to be packaged in the Netherlands, and then shipped again to be consumed in Norway.

Emissions are not a significant consideration in this global economy. The key factor that everyone cares about is cost.
