Strictly speaking, no. MIT does not give you permissions to change the license. But you can incorporate MIT licensed code into a project that contains code that is under a different license of your choice, open or closed source for a nearly identical effect.

So you can just license all future contributions under AGPL and use the MIT licensed code, effectively making the combined work AGPL. But the MIT part remains MIT, anyone could fork your project, remove all AGPL code and return to MIT. It’s wise to clearly mark which code is which, especially since MIT requires that the copyright notice must be retained:

Yes, unions have a racism problem. Do you think any large institution hasn't?

https://www.inquirer.com/news/inq2/more-perfect-union-trade-...

> Racism, couched as union solidarity, has always been a part of the trades – embedded in their founding stories, their mythology. Their very success, some historians argue, was built on the exclusion of Black workers.

[snip]

> The local building trades have refused to share demographic data on the workers they represent. But the most recent available data from 2012 show that the industry’s union workforce was 99% male and 76% white in a city that is nearly 44% Black, and where other major labor unions are predominantly African American.

I think the mistake here was the name chosen. The NaN concept from floating point has an identical definition and behavior, so calling it something like NaV (not a value) or undefined (similar but not identical behavior in JS) instead might have caused less confusion vs NULL typically having a definition of an implicit Option<T>
However you can (and many do) work for nasa as an employee of a contractor. Working for NASA as a "civil servant" means "are an employee of the federal government", which is a very different thing in employment law.

It is also a different thing in terms of compensation: a friend of mine just started working at NASA in Mountain View. They were given two offers for the same job "you work directly for NASA for $60k as an entry level federal employee with federal employee benefits" or "you work for a contractor for 100k and shitty contractor benefits". They went the "I need to pay Bay Area rent" path, but have found that because they aren't "civil servant" they essentially cannot work with other organizations or universities.
Interesting rant. I had to laugh about this:

I think the preamble to the legislation sort of goes over it. I remember a section talking about marketing and it seemed to imply that businesses have a legitimate interest to market their own products to their own customers.
For example, a Dutch company might look at address data and see that they get a lot of orders online to ship to Germany and they can use that to open a store there. Obviously the business is interested in selling to its consumers effectively and obviously those consumers are interested in those products. When they start selling that information to other people, it isn't really legitimate anymore.

Do you mean that they lied in their annual report about their profits and/or their current cash on hand? Or that the total legal costs will be much higher than the 9 billion settlement agreement?

Because I still don't see how a 9 billion settlement would bankrupt J&J, even if the subsidiary were to be reabsorbed into J&J tomorrow. They already set aside ~7 billion in Q1 2023 for this and have way deeper reserves available.

One detail: -paid- time off is accrued in most eu countries. What happens more or less is that instead of getting your “full” pay for a working day, you stash a certain amount of money away, and you pick up money from that bucket when taking time off.

The important part of PTO in EU is that’s guaranteed that you can take it, or even that you MUST take it. If the total amount of money per year is the same, it doesn’t make a lot of difference whether it’s paid or unpaid.

You should also take into account patients that are already worried, and how much peace it brings when the scan results come clean

---

But I am really worried with a deeper issue.

A full-body MRI scan provides information, and supposedly with no harm (at least physically)

According to your arguments, the medical system doesn't currently know what to do with it to provide an overall benefit (Allow me to be skeptical, but let's roll with it)

So your attitude is to not collect the information in the first place. I assume you are thinking that because there are no immediate benefits and lots of cost

But I'm sure there are, at least, future benefits. Why not instead start learning from this new source of information to do good in the future?, like at least, collect it for future references / comparisons with future scans

---

If you still think the benefits do not compensate the cost, then fine, that's a completely personal decision that should not be imposed to others.

Doctor's role is to communicate as accurately as possible the benefits/harm of an action, and let patients decide for themselves if the cost is worth it or not
When I was about 12 my dad wanted to do some work plumbing in the house but couldn’t find the stopcock to turn off the water. Figuring it was buried somewhere in the hedge he got me to dowse for the water line with a couple of bent coat hangers.

Waking back and forth across the front lawn the bent coat hangers crossed consistently along a line so he started digging. Unfortunately the pipe he holed with the garden fork was the gas supply and the day ended with the gas company coming around to patch the line. I don’t think we ever found the water stopcock.

Though we can’t explain it dowsing does seem to work. There is however no guarantee that what you find is what you were looking for…

There may not be many fines but Facebook, Google, TikTok and Microsoft were all fined due to making it hard to refuse cookies.

Amazon was also fined for not properly asking consent. If I remember correctly, one of the company making those annoying cookies banners where you have a list of trackers to uncheck was also fined for this behavior.

Until I read that, I held the belief that GDPR was really pretty clear and easy to implement. But reading that, it seems to me that the ICO doesn't really have a clue how you're supposed to distinguish a legitimate interest from an illegitimate one.

Perhaps the "legitimate interest" base needs to be deleted. It looks like a deliberate loophole.
We serve a web application for logistics so our users are planners, administrative people, drivers, etc and we see the same behaviour. A lot of users ignore the dialog (so no analytics can be used, default to answering no) and learn to live with the cookie pop-up in the corner of the screen.. :-D
I really don’t see much wrong with it. It’s fabric-y and squidgy and kind of only alright, but at the same time, it works fine and my typing speed on it is about the same as anything else.

Don’t forget that people coded whole programmes on the Sinclair ZX80 and rubber-membrane-keyed ZX Spectrum, which were both abominable, nightmare fuel in fact to those desirous of Cherry keycaps and clicky tactility. The Smart Keyboard is a functional middle ground.

I also wrote the book in Google Docs, and pecked out some of it on my Android smartphone if inspiration struck. The fact that changes instantly sync so seamlessly and unthinkingly between platforms and devices I think is also really brilliant. It’s easy to forget in our quest for computing perfection that ‘good enough’ really is good enough if inspiration strikes. I wrote huge chunks of the book on transport and in public – literally on aeroplanes, trams, sitting on benches outside the library or by the beach. Creating where for the most part people are just consuming or scrolling content in those environments. The iPad and its day-long battery is amazing for this, and I’m not sure that a laptop would have been the same.
And in addition, each column, or even partition of a column, can store statistics about itself like min max avg count etc. That way if you look up max(column) you only have to read the meta data on the partitions on that column, it's very fast. And for analytics this is pretty common.
That feels very icky to delete that at this very point in time. It’s PR, it’s spin, very corporate, very untrustworthy. They could have left it up and responded to it, but deleting is manipulation in this case.

Nah, even for that. I don't know what gp is on. I recently downloaded a project a friend made on rpgmaker. I had to manually download rpgmaker itself, a dll and a new font. It wasn't a complex project, he isn't even a developer, he mostly make illustrations and graphical assets. It was really, really basic stuff.

That said, I have almost 10 .exe that just work and that I take from computer to computer since 2015, like I have around 30 .sh/.py/.lisp that i do too. Being charitable, I think GP just have a lot of scripts/small tools that just work, and he was referring to that.

> While the average American is lucky to get 11 vacation days

WHAT? Does that count sick days as well, or is that a myth?

Here in Germany, I get 30 vacation days per calendar year, plus any sick days, and thats fairly normal.

Edit: Sure the absolute salaries here are lower, but the cost of living is vastly different and the social support structures and healthcare are different, too. That should definitely be kept in mind.

I dont need to drive my car a lot, because my city is fully walkable/bikeable, and thats not a super rare thing here. There are a lot of factors.

I feel vacation days are just a basic requirement for happiness, whereas being rich maybe isnt
Furthermore, the very entrance of physical contraband can be argued to cause damage to the interests of the country or the wellbeing of its citizens. If the contraband is of legal items but evading tax, it is a net financial loss to the state. If the contraband is an illegal substance, it is a net loss of health & safety for its citizens. If the contraband is a lethal weapon, it is a net loss in terms of security.

Subjecting travellers to searches for these items on entry, overriding the need for a warrant or probable cause, is thus defensible as a legitimate reduction of risk. On the contrary, searching an individual who is within the country without a warrant or probable cause cannot be argued to protect the country from any risk, given that if this person has these items then they are already there — the damage has been done.

Now let's compare this argument with child pornography. The reason CP material is illegal is not because the material itself causes damages, but because its very existence requires causing damage to create it. Also, its posession —a proxy for its consumption— causes an incentive for more CP being produced and hence more damage.

To put it bluntly, drugs are illegal because they are (ostensibly) damaging to the person and community that consume them. CP on the other hand is damaging to the victims and communities used to produce it.

With that in mind, what interests of the state or society are being defended by warrantless search for CP on border entry? Without denying that a carrier of CP should hopefully be caught and put to trial, the damage is already done and will not be exacerbated by the entrance of CP into the country, nor will be reduced by stopping it. There is no valid argument for arbitrary spot-checks for CP at border crossings that could not equally be applied for arbitrary spot-checks for CP on citizens at any given moment.

As a corollary though, I have to say that my argument justifying physical contraband border checks on entry due to the legitimate interests of the state does justify warrantless CP checks on the border... but only on leaving a country, not on entry. Making it harder for locally produced CP to leave a country can be argued to reduce the incentive for local production of CP, which would result in damage reduction.

Does the US salary hold up against the benefits you get in a well-off EU country? Namely free healthcare, automatic payments into pension fund, strong social system if you're ever in trouble, etc.?

It seems to me that, as high as US salaries are, they arent that much higher compared to European salaries when you factor all this in, plus the face that a month of that work youre paid for youre OOO

I found the linked Register.com vs Verio case [1] very interesting, because the courts actually made a more nuanced decision on contracts of adhesion than typically understood, I believe:

In the case, Verio was calling Register's API for a purpose that Register disallowed. However, they only supplied the "contract" text that declared the restrictions after the call was made (as part of the API response I think).

The court did in fact agree that this was too late: If you can only find out the terms and conditions for an API call by making that API call, then this is a "shrink-wrap agreement" and the terms are void.

The restriction the court made on this was that it only applied to the first time they called the API: Verio has employees who can be expected to have common sense. So after having called the API for the first time, they had an opportunity to read the text and become aware of the restrictions. This meant that for all the subsequent API calls they made, Verio's staff was aware that they were doing something that Register explicitly forbid, but did so anyway - hence the court ruled that as "breach of contract".

The important point here was that the courts never abandoned the principle that an individual must be aware of a contract's conditions before it can enter a contract - the case was just shooting down a situation where a party was pretending to be ignorant of the terms when they really weren't.
