This is a question that is valid for any open source / free software project too. Or any software project, really, source available or not.

In the end, it's hard work to actually enforce any license and can cost a lot of time, energy and money.

That said, I would trust any OSI or FSF-approved license, they've been reviewed by a lot of people including lawyers. but this one does not seem very solid.

> > Skimming through the laws of the game (https://downloads.theifab.com/downloads/laws-of-the-game-202...) I do wonder whether a trainer and up to 4 other players (because a team which can field less than 7 players forfeits the game) climbing on the crossbar until it breaks could be advantageous in some situation as well since If it cannot be repaired the match must be abandoned.

Most of these rules are there, but if somebody were to try and obviously abuse them (for example damaging the crossbar or the net) they'd be disqualified due to common sense.

For example, back in 1991 during the Quarter Final of the European Club Cup Marseille was winning 1-0 against AC Milan, they had the victory in their pocket but in stoppage time a blackout hit Marseille's Velodrome stadium and lights went out. After a few minutes the electricity returned but stadium lights would need 15-20 minutes to be ready again.

AC Milan board stormed onto the pitch and took the occasion to forcefully send their players in the locker-room and de-facto retire the team hoping to somehow avoid defeat and have some ground to protest for a repetition of the match. Their claim is that during the blackout TV crews and fans descended onto the pitch and there would be grounds for a disqualification of Marseille or at least a replay.

UEFA didn't like that at all and instead banned the club board and the whole A.C. Milan squad from European competition for 2 years.

If I recall, you can absolutely loop through the elements in a tight loop and the compiler (e.g. GCC) will auto-vectorize for you (if you have the relevant optimization flag set).

The trick with coding for auto-vectorization is to keep your loops small and free of clutter.

I don't have the documentation handy but I think you only need to follow a couple rules:

- loop must have a defined size (for-loop instead of while-loop)

- don't muck with pointers inside the loop (simple pointer increment is okay)

- don't modify other variables (only the array should be modified)
I recently came across a reference to this kind of thing going on in Europe, although it was more about controlling what music was popular based on some notion of what was 'safe' for the youth. The billionaire in question (Ukraine's second richest at one point) was a major behind-the-scenes actor in both pre- and post-2014 Ukraine, a backer of Zelensky at one point, but now safely on the official US/NATO-reviled list so we can talk about him:

> "As a Komsomol activist, Kolomoyskyi was involved in the so-called "disco movement" - an attempt by the authorities to promote an ideological safe alternative to the growing, underground, rebroadcast and performance of "Anglo-American" rock music including, in the 80s, heavy metal and punk."

I don't think the right to distribute should be implied in the phrase open source. A lot of open source licenses include a right to distribute but there usually has been a small but well known minority that does not. So I would say that if you allow your clients to view the code, change it and compile it, but prohibit distribution you still have open source.
Training on copyright data is arguably considered fair use in quite a few jurisdictions to various extents and levels of precedent, and entirely legal for entities based in Japan.

Tell HN: MacBook CPU Usage and Brave
When the world of atoms and the world of bits collide:

My Mac was getting uncomfortably hot, and naturally I figured the battery was getting old or something. I usually have it on my lap, so this was a problem.

When I did a search, some page said "look at the Activity Monitor and see what's using the CPU."

I was dubious, but I thought, "OK, sure" and brought it up. There were two Brave windows, each with many, many tabs open, and they were both over 100% of the CPU. I wouldn't have thought that was even possible.

I killed them both, just to see, and now the thing is much cooler. I can keep it on my lap comfortably.

This is a picture-perfect example of how just in the past few years, proprietary software producers have successfully diluted the terms coined and widely used by grassroots developer communities that have been around for decades.
Michael Nielsen did an analysis on this based on his own usage. He found that the time he spent reviewing a card over a lifetime is about 10 minutes (i.e. he'd spend 10 minutes of his life reviewing the card over and over before it's memorized "for good"). So his calculus was:

"In the future, of all the times I will need this information, will I spend more than 10 minutes looking it up?"

If the answer is no, he won't bother creating flashcards.

If the answer is yes, he will.

Now that doesn't account for the time spent creating the card, but for most cards it will definitely take under a minute to create - so it doesn't change things much.

Writing cards vs doing exercises is comparing very different concerns. One needs to eat as well, but it wouldn't make sense to ask "Write cards vs eating."

Flashcards are for recall. Exercises are for understanding. It is true if you use a concept over and over in practice exercises, it will aid in recall as well. But for concepts you use less often (i.e. fewer exercises), you are more likely to forget them. Flashcards guard against that.

Case in point: I took tons of engineering and physics courses. So the usual undergraduate calculus, along with trigonometric identities, are ingrained in my mind even though I haven't used them in over a decade. Now consider complex analysis (or complex calculus). It was one of my favorite math classes. But I rarely applied that knowledge in other courses. As a result, despite the fact that I basically reviewed the material twice after taking the course, I still remember almost none of it.

I could force myself to do complex analysis exercises occasionally for the rest of my life. Or I could put them in flashcards. The former will definitely lead to a richer, deeper understanding, but is impractical due to the heavy time requirements. The latter is a good compromise.
Using SPDK as Device Firmware
By assign(a,b) I meant to denote the copying of the matrix b into the matrix a. The ability to use arithmetic symbols `+` and `-` as function identifiers definitely aids in readability but I don't think this is possible in Zig.

I am not familiar with Emmy but I'm guessing that the usual work flow will involve an interactive shell with many calls to `render` to display expressions in infix notation so that you can better check if the expression you typed is actually what you meant to type.

The infix notation, although arbitrary and not as logically simple as other notations, is almost universal in the math-speaking world. Most mathematicians and engineers have have years of experience staring at infix expressions on blackboards, and disseminate new knowledge using this notation, and do new calculations in this notation.

In reading your reply, I think that maybe some tooling that could auto-insert corresponding infix-like comments above an AST-like syntax could be a solution for writing such code in Zig.

FHIR is an HL7 standard. While conforming to FHIR makes interchange easier, it doesn't guarantee that the clinical data is accurate, complete, or properly coded. Researchers typically still have to put a huge amount of effort into data cleansing, especially if they need to merge data sets from multiple provider organizations.
Respectfully, I think you are wrong.

"Source-available" means that you can see the source code: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Source-available_software. If I make a library, publish the source code online, and do NOT add a license, then you are not allowed to use it.

"Open-source" means more, including (among others) free redistribution and derived works: https://opensource.org/osd/. If I make a library an publish the source code under an open source license (permissive or not), then you can use it under the conditions of that license.

"Free/Libre" means that the end-user keeps the open source rights, i.e. the rights to view and modify the free/libre code running in the product they bought. If you build a product by assembling permissive-licensed libraries, you can sell it as proprietary code (with some attribution). So your customers have somehow "lost" some of the open source rights you got. If you build a product by assembling copyleft-licensed libraries, then you need to provide those libraries to your customers; they kept their rights.
We’re profitable and liquid. But all interest has been inbound. When I’ve reached out to cold customers who seem similar to our existing customers they’re already satisfied with the solutions they have.

A lot of unlicensed use goes on in undeveloped backwaters of the world but I don’t see that as affecting growth because those poor pirates don’t have the money to pay anyway.

As long as we keep up our current rate of sale and don’t hire more we’ll stay profitable and liquid, and I can make a good salary, but I what I really want is growth.

This would be a huge PITA.
See here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_Land_Survey_System

And in particular checkout the section titled: Survey design and execution.

Now keep in mind errors happened a lot over large distances with difficult terrain and lines got skewed. But defining a chunk of land as the "Southwest quarter of the Northeast quarter", and then breaking it down from there by physical corners set in the ground is pretty sensical even when things get skewed. With hexagons, you COULD do the same thing, but I don't think the errors would come out so well. You'd have to be more careful to tie to more points/lines in order to not accidentally create conflicting definitions.

It sounds like a nightmare honestly.
Just fyi this research is found in the original GPT-4 technical report and Microsoft’s GPT-4 assessment. There wasn’t an attempt to hide that discovery or anything like that.
> I have seen people make what is effectively this argument.

Ok, well I think they're foolish.

> That's a sci-fi trope. There is no reason that it must be the case.

No, it's not. The reason is that it's not a human brain in a human body. It doesn't think about humans in the same ways that we do (which is already a pretty shit track record). There is no reason to believe it will give a damn about us even if we're trying to make it do so.

> That would be more relevant if the ants had created us to be the way we are.

sigh I don't think that factor is nearly as relevant as you think it is. So somewhere else I posted that a human child is a better analogy if you think this is so important. Human children often disobey their parents because they believe they know better once they grow up. Now imagine that child is an alien who can out-think a hundred humans and counter every logical argument its parent makes.

The classic work on this is "Acid Dreams: The Complete Social History of LSD: The CIA, the Sixties, and Beyond" by Lee & Shain. The Chapter "In the Beginning There Was Madness" covers the crazy era of MK-ULTRA (and the Frank Olson case, in which the CIA fed LSD to MKULTRA collaborators in the biological warfare program, where Olson worked - he then had a breakdown of some sort and wanted to quit the program and perhaps go public, so the CIA hit him in the head with a hammer and threw him out of a high-rise (probably, anyway) and called it a suicide for several decades).

I don't know how many people have pulled out in front of me, almost killing me and they seem to just wave.

Although once an amazing thing happened. I had gotten up early at o-dark-thirty and was driving through the suburbs and this guy came barelling out of a sidestreet. I hit the brakes and he made the turn, cut me off and drove in front of me. When we got to the next stop sign, he got out of the car and came back towards me. I was about to back up and gtfo, but rolled down the window. He said "it's so early, and I didn't see you there and I'm so sorry." Very nice and I completely relaxed and smiled.

That seems incredibly weird as an argument. Either corner crossing is illegal, in which case the loss would be the actual value, or corner crossing is legal, in which case no damage was done and the private land was just overvalued. I’m not a lawyer, but I cannot fathom any situation in which the individual actions would be liable for having “caused” the decrease in value.

Viewing the source code grants you the right to know what gets executed on your computer before the fact. Anyone who knows anything about computers should understand that is a tremendously important power and right. Open source is one way to obtain and exercise that right as an end-user.

As an example: When people say Intel Management Engine is a backdoor, it's because the code concerned cannot be publicly viewed (aka closed source) for auditing. Nobody would have a problem with Intel Management Engine if the source code was open for public viewing, regardless the other actual license terms.

Licensing also cannot, as a matter of simple practicality, police what you do strictly within the privacy of your own home. Even if the license forbids it, if you want to compile the source code or otherwise somehow use it strictly for your own personal and private use there's nothing stopping you.

If false or incomplete source code is provided, that is by its very nature not open source because the source code was obviously not opened to you (and everyone else) for viewing.

It's why "FLOSS" and "FOSS" as terms exist, open source is a separate question from the question of free-as-in-beer or free-as-in-libre.

I had a very similar problem - a mouse ate through my wiring harness and it was tripping my brakes lights out, which the ECU thought I was braking, and I couldn't accelerate. Took the dealer like 5 trips to figure it out. Insurance covered it.

Btw, where'd you find that old car? Locally or get it shipped to you?
> The other comments here make ‘automatic emergency braking’ sound like a really good idea

That's because those other comments all assume that "automatic emergency braking" will only do exactly what it's supposed to do and will never make a mistake. But any sensible person knows that's not going to happen. These systems will make mistakes, and some of those mistakes will cause harm. So you can't just make a blanket claim that such systems are good. You have to actually look at the data and balance the harm they avoid by doing what they're supposed to do when they're supposed to do it, against the harm they cause when they make mistakes.

The obvious next question is, does the proposed rulemaking here consider the consequences of the system making mistakes? As far as I can tell, the answer is no, with just one qualifier. The claims about crashes prevented and lives saved are not net savings, accounting for harm done by the system making mistakes; those claimed numbers assume the systems will always perform perfectly and will never cause any harm, only prevent it. The one qualifier is that the proposal does include two "false positive" tests to try to spot systems that brake when they're not supposed to. But there is no analysis given to show why those particular false positive tests were picked or why they would justify the extremely high level of confidence in the systems not making errors that the rest of the proposal shows.
Ha ha ha. bringing your negativity. Triggered by positivity.
> Statistics are meaningless to the individual.

This is just blatantly untrue.

> means little compared to an individual who already drives safely without it

Until emergency breaking stops a bad driver from T-boning you in an intersection as they run a red light.
