It's worth noting that they were speaking about their personal experience in that paragraph. So probably for them, the "how do you get to that conclusion" is "trial and error".

But I've noticed that many many many people report the same effect, that there's something about pen-and-paper writing that's more effective for thought-lubrication. I resisted for a long time, but now I too am a convert to this school of thought.

Similarly almost everyone notices the downside: it's easier to reorder, reorganize, cross-link, etc, those thoughts, in a text editor (to say nothing of more sophisticated software tools). Some people have systems for doing complicated things with paper that they say mitigates this downside, but I am not currently one of them.

I guess it's possible that your brain just doesn't have this pattern in it. (That is, the pattern of finding pen-and-paper more effective for getting the thoughts to flow.) I mean, for all I know, maybe the huge silent majority doesn't have this pattern.

What makes you think the despot will tell you to eat broccoli?

What if he just built a vanity project trans-fat factory and doesn’t want to loose face, so insists everyone must eat cheap trans-fats?

What if the autocrat decides to block access to a free-press and to jail anyone that dares to say ice cream makes you fat?

We can play what if scenarios all day but end result is always the same.

In an dictatorship you can’t remove a bad actor from power or even laugh at them.

Imagine the future where we have instead of HDMI recording cards that circumvent crappy encryption something like a downscale and upscale neural co processor to circumvent copyright protection.

Last time they tried to copyright everything with DMCA it actually turned out to be a useless law.

Why not fix DMCA first and make malicious intent actually prosecutable - and then move on to transformative topics?

Can't fix copyright if copyright itself is already broken in the law. 90 years made sense in a world of pen and paper, but not in a world with the internet.

I find it hilarious that you intentionally quote one half of a sentence knowing the other half would defeat the argument you make.

No, and phishing and ransomware aren’t what you’re targeting. Since you intend on banning general usage of crypto, you need to prove I’m being scammed when I volunteer to run a set of instructions on my computer that are available for me to read.

"Carrier" isn't a mathematical term, they're just using that word in place of the word "set" to distinguish it from ZF sets. "Group" refers to a specific kind of mathematical structure[0], but it's just given as an example. The important part is that any object can be part of a group, so if the collection of all groups existed as an object, then it would also be part of a group, indirectly containing itself and leading to paradox.

Surely its just publicly documenting criminal acts for law enforcement purposes when looking at data privacy laws like EU GDPR?

Mind you, when will the legal system admit it non-consensually forces itself onto people from the day one is born? I wonder who does more harm especially as we are supposed to live in a democracy where we can pick and choose our politicians and thus legislators, and yet the state doesn't teach law to people in a tldr way.

The legal system is certainly dictatorial in a fascist dictator way, so does that make law abiding citizens little fascist dictators, who use a mere transgression of the law, to unload their pent up frustration of violence on those around them?

I will say this, the US constitution is so vague, its barely worth repeating let along harping back to for court cases.

Time to update the constitution for the 21st century, unless it should be viewed simply as a tldr in todays modern times?

No stranger than hearing English or French accents IMO. Or Canadian. etc.

I've been to just over 60 countries so far, and spent about 7 years basically backpacking straight, and plenty at hostels.

That's what colored my cynicism of "Australians travel so prolifically" - most of the time they just had short stops in a city and were there to get drunk. Maybe doing some guided tours as you point out, but rarely going off-road or actually traveling, meeting locals, learning about the culture, etc. You could say many Australians are tourists few are actually 'travelers', if that makes sense.

I'll go a step further:

Crypto has no use case that hasn't been already solved by the current financial system and it is not private at all.

In fact most users have dwindling and no confidence with crypto:

> Again, I've tried to win them with reason, and even put challenges in order for them to put their money where their mouths are; but they just shirk it and go on about disparaging it without any real substance.

And where is the substance in the crypto industry? The answer is the sum of the amount of use cases they are trying to find.

Zero.

Heating plastics can release not just BPA but also phthalates, dioxins, and other harmful compounds which are linked to lots of nasty heath issues like hormone disruption, cancer and reproductive problems.

Polypropylene is generally considered one of the safer plastics with it's high heat tolerance meaning doesn't leach harmful chemicals. While pure polypropylene may be considered safe, additives used in the manufacturing such as colourants or fillers could have their own health risks.

Personally avoid mixing food or drinks with any heated plastics, including my coffee. I use French press for my coffee but if Aeropress is your thing and want to avoid plastic I've heard good things about the Cafelat Robot which is made almost entirely out of aluminium and stainless steel.

I see 2 problems with that.

(1) how do you know if the image that just generated is substantially similar to an existing copyright work? Maybe if some registration tool existed, but other wise the burden is too great

(2) what is stopping someone from generating millions of images and copy righting all the "unique" ones? Such that no one can create anything without accidental collisions.

> Dockerfiles on their own are usually missing a lot of critical information about how to run the container

Uh, of course they do, since they say nothing about how to run a container. Dockerfiles encode an image (also not really deterministically, contrary to the common belief, but that's details), not a container.

And docker-compose.yaml represents making a bunch of containers from images. These are completely separate things.

A recent study found that microwaving food in plastic packaging releases a lot of microplastic into the food:

This is more of a problem for images, where similar output to inputs is likely, than for LLMs, where no matter what you prompt it with I doubt you can get it to regurgitate any significant parts of Harry Potter well enough to be a classical copyright violation of any of the novels. Maybe you could generate a copyright violation of character traits.

The output space of images (MB for larger images) tends to be larger than books (a few hundred KB of text for a long novel), but the perceptual output space of books is much larger.

Any determination that licensing is required for AI generation, or use of AI-generated works, is unacceptable until Congress or courts put some reasonable objective tests in place to determine what is and isn't a copyright violation for various types of works of various lengths. Not the ambiguous 4-factor test that is basically whatever the judge feels like. It will be a complete mess otherwise. They can't just define a new AI policy for copyright with a few types of works in mind; it has to work for all works.

You could look at this mathematically from a complexity perspective and try to define a similarity function that's true when a second work is close enough to a first work to be a derived work (assuming the first one had been seen by the creator of the second). Unfortunately that won't work because nobody can define such a function to everyone's satisfaction, and the courts wouldn't accept any informal suggestion of a definition when it didn't come from Congress. Specifically, you'd get into trouble with consistency in the function determining derived works depending on length of the work: short works, like a haiku, are much more sensitive to copyright violation in some ways... a mere 17 syllables is a complete reproduction and therefore a copyright violation, yet a single word isn't; for a novel, reproducing 1/17 of the content is almost certainly a copyright violation, but reproducing 17 syllables probably isn't.

Different stakeholders and creative re-mixers would want different things from the function. It's untenable.
That's not S-exprs then because there is no symbolic difference between )( and ) ( or between foo( and foo (.

That also explains why European emergency numbers are often 11X, including 112 which is the universal emergency number in the EU and the GSM standard (so it will work on your mobile phone too).

Exactly; I live in Tokyo and even in areas with huge apartment blocks, it's very quiet, particularly at night.

> We shouldn't assume that just because a human is allowed to do something, a machine is automatically allowed to do the same thing, too

There are no sentient machines (at least yet). Your position is one where you are actually limiting what other humans can do, limiting which tools can other humans have access to. Also, the parameter – according to the law – was always "the same". For instance, there is nothing preventing you from making your own chess league where computers are allowed to compete. FIDE is free to ban you from compete own their leagues or to ban anyone associate with your league or whatever, but there is nothing in the law preventing you.

I have been saying this from the day one: this whole debate it's mainly white-collar workers negatively impacted by automation making up any excuse they can to say why their job should be protected, somehow, for some reason, but not the one of coal miners or what have you.

The article reports the Texas law said "pornography sites would have been forced to display a “Texas Health and Human Services Warning” in at least 14-point font — one such warning was specified to read, “Pornography increases the demand for prostitution, child exploitation, and child pornography”

I not sure I can believe all that. I do believe porm can be addictive for some folks because I knew a guy who had barrels full of hard core porn magazines at his metal fabrication shop in Hollywood when I was young teen in the 70s. He must've had 1000s of them.

I'm not at all convinced that it "increases the demand for prostitution, child exploitation, and child pornography” though. With the few exceptions for prostitution all of that is already illegal in most places here in the U.S. and has been long before porn on the web became a thing, and "child pornography" has always been a crime.

I don't think a "warning" like that on porn sites will change any of that at all. It's nothing more than political bullshit.
