Except that now he's put this into the public domain, DC can also do what they want with it to the extent that anyone else can.

It doesn't hurt DC financially, other than potentially diluting the Fable brand because anyone else can also use it now. There's also a strong likelihood that DC do in fact own partial copyright over anything that isn't the comic - so any figurines, film spinoffs, etc., in fact anything that wasn't wholly created entirely by Willingham, even if he still owns the underlying IP, so people almost certainly aren't free to make copies of anything other than just the comics.

Also I don't understand why my comment (the GP to this comment) was been moderated down so much. Is it just that my opinion is unpopular with fans and so it was downvoted rather than debated? For instance, re my comment about public domain vs explicit license there are many articles like this: https://www.techdirt.com/2015/01/23/why-we-still-cant-really...

The chip inside the iPhone 15 doesn’t have the redesigned I/O block from the iPhone 15 Pro. It’s also the same chip that was designed and used in the iPhone 14 Pro, which had Lightning and USB 2.0.

So they are possibly, more or less, using a chip that was designed for USB 2.0 over Lightning, with an integrated Lightning to USB-C adapter.

The alternative is a full chip redesign, which is not cheap, especially when the iPhone 16s will inherit the redesign next year.
Yes, but, most of the water loss and flood farming is because there is water pulled up everywhere around the plants and a lot of it just directly evaporates. That’s why drip irrigation is so much better, you’re targeting water to the plants
There is also Unigine [1] but that has less community around it than Unreal. I am mentioning it because I think it should be known more. It was started by a single russian dev who was initially just writing online tutorials on various OpenGL and physics stuff (frustum.org). Then he decided to make a commercial engine and started a company. Of course their engine evolved a lot since and they have a team of devs now and are no longer based in Russia (and the original dev is no longer in their team I think?). I am impressed by what they have achieved (it must have been super-hard especially in the beginning) and that they continue developing it and the graphical output is quite competitive to the major engines. They are also known for various graphical benchmarks.

If you have to justify the price with inflation adjusted prices for a consumer electronic device you're already messing up somewhere.
Grusch, and all of the numerous "whistleblowers" and "eyewitnesses" for one. The narrative is that UFOs are manned interdimensional craft, and that the US and other governments have recovered both "non human biologics" from the pilots and reverse engineered alien technology.

If you want to go in another direction - that UFOs are unmanned probes - you have to separate the UAP phenomenon from the greater UFO mythology, but that isn't really feasible when you've got people like Steven Greer and Lue Elizondo involved.
Carrefour puts ‘shrinkflation’ price warnings on food to shame brands
You can see it in his solution which is to acquire more and more clients. Big firms don't sell like a SaaS. It's high-touch, long cycles, highly competitive and pricing is almost always negotiated based on scope. We'd spend weeks doing competitive analysis, writing pitch decks and case studies, spend thousands on travel to do an in-person pitch with a squad of slick experts wherever their office was. It's a tough game and not one that's easy to break into if you don't have the right frame of mind.
Exactly.

As I see it this move helps DC since they can now do whatever they want with Fables (make a movie, change characters, etc, etc.) without the author having any say as they also now own it 100% as the author says. At the same time they have enough lawyers to keep everyone else at bay for long enough that it won't matter.
The article is explicitly adjusted to US inflation, not Japan inflation, or anywhere else. In the US, wages have grown faster than inflation.
But even this doesn't work: if you are continually making choices that erode your users' trust in you, there will eventually be an impact. It happens outside of the experiment (e.g. communications between users, general sliding changes in sentiment, etc). And you can't just spot in the time series whether you're going too far or not.
> And I just don’t expect to meet my wife in a nightclub.

I did?

I mean, you can meet a significant other or friend in any kind of place. I kind of get what the author is trying to say but it's ill phrased.
The majority of people used to be against marijuana, but there is a time delay in opinion changing and law changing (unless you live in a dictatorship and the dictator shares the opinion).

I am not personally against marijuana at all, I just like to understand the perspective of people I disagree with.

Two things that will never work here (2021)
I agree. Unfortunately military radars are classified systems, and civil radars do not currently publish any such information systematically either. So we are left with anecdotes.

If people started demanding such data to be collected systematically and published, then it could be researched. But for the most part the stigma around the subject makes people not bother asking for these sort of things.
So you're just guessing, because of a gut feeling?
lol, lmao, even. What do you think studios are doing right now prompting huge strikes among actors and writers in Hollywood?
Tell HN: Google randomly deleting Chromebook configs
The Google Admin Console is randomly un-setting configs for managed Chromebooks.

We develop a Chromebook kiosk app for exams used at 50+ universities in Europe.
These universities use Chromebooks as cheap "exam laptops", sometimes in rooms of 1k+ students.
They use Google Admin to configure all these machines.

Since last week, exams are getting cancelled, because just when the students are about to start their exam, IT notices their config is (partially) wiped again.

The wiping doesn't happen immediately, the config is actually saved correctly. It just gets deleted after a few days.

We reached out to Google Dev support to raise this issue.
Google being Google responded that we "should contact the developers of the kiosk app"....that's us.

Thanks Google

(I mostly feel for all these students having studied hard for their exams and showed up in time, just for them to be send home again)
I guess that's why we now get the piecemeal support for Ukraine. No real intervention, but we've got to do something, but not too much, but not too little either.
Is EU the only significant power on this planet that isn't ... for a lack of better word, evil?
I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic, but: I bought a Pixel Tablet. It is good. The speaker/charger thing actually pretty useful (I have it on my desk as another screen, sound is decent).

I've owned a few Android tablets. This has been the best. They never feel as good as an iPad, but that's normal; hard to beat Apple there. But I have no desire to get back into the Apple ecosystem, I now actively avoid it.
> Your response is yes but this other company would never fuck users over after an aggressive growth / dumping business model phase.

Well, Epic didn't do that when it went through it's aggressive growth and the last time it dumped it's business model. Instead, they changed their licensing to lower fees, and when you look at what they did across the board, made things better for customers and game developers.

So, all evidence is to the contrary.

Edit: Also, nice strawman.
> Unreal has licenses which allow you to use one version of their engine FOREVER and they cannot revoke that license.

I thought the unity TOS had this too?
Maybe trans people are tired of having their existence debated or being treated as a problem to solve (often in an unnuanced way that tries to simplify trans people in exactly the ways we are pushing back against).

All the people I know don't have collars on their indoor cats... that's the part where I was left scratching my head :P
A huge dose of skepticism is necessary when Intel speaks about their nodes since at least a decade and their 10nm fiasco, a node that was coming any next month for 7 years.

On the other hand some people (such as Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang) have said that they sampled the node and it's very promising.
Watching this industry for a long time, I've learned that I can never trust a company. Companies are made up of people but the people within them change, and their incentives change. This is very much the case with Unity.

People, on the other hand, I can trust. Not often, but in cases where a person has made a long series of decisions over a decade or more, you can get a feel for what their value system is. Tim Sweeney is in this category. He was involved in Unreal back when I was in undergrad, more than 20 years ago. So I sort of put him in the same category as Gabe Newell and John Carmack: relatively enlightened game business leaders that understand the true value that gamers and developers derive from the ecosystem. None of them are in to make another dollar in the next quarter: they are focused on long term success and the are passionate about games themselves.

So it's not that you're wrong, it's just that your argument applies cynicism uniformly, and I'm not sure that's fair given the history of those involved.
But that's part of the issue, I'm not reading a blog post from 2013, I'm reading recent studies in top shelf medical journals with clear conclusions.

I may not understand the minutia of the study, but if the conclusions are "60% of people with X showed the underlying cause Y", and my doctor is saying "I have never heard of any possible association with Y, and Y has no possible connection anyway" then I feel pretty confident that the doctor is out of touch.

Rather the doctors take should be "Please send me the studies and I will review them with my actual medical knowledge" or really "I need to review the literature on this patients illness so I can be up to date while treating them for it"
This might be most plausible theory. Presumably going to US public also can leverage entire us population as a surveillance mechanism. Granted there would be a ton of noise. Timing also seems to make sense in that there has been heightened concern of surveillance by other countries. Could be simply fundraising.
> I don't think the UK even has such a resilient system.

Tell that to someone from the UK, and they're likely to laugh in your face. The UK has never faced rolling power outages; Texas faced that just two years ago (although ERCOT appears to have had some issues with the "rolling" part). Furthermore, I don't think the UK has ever had to go voluntary load-shedding measures; Texas had to do that several times this past month, and last summer, etc.

It's hard to say that the extreme cold event was uprecedented when the exact same thing happened in Texas but a decade prior, complete with learnings that would have prevented the breakdown of the grid (i.e., rolling blackouts) had they been implemented. And the extreme heat wave has been impacting, well, more or less the entire world, and most of the power systems haven't even had to suggest that customers use less power. This is stuff that is eminently predictable, and in most of the world, electricity capacity is planned under the basis of extreme demand scenarios, not normal demand scenarios. If Texas's grid is designed merely for normal demand, then that is a surprise that should have Texans up in arms about the incompetence of their electricity regulator.
Friendly reminder that most of us live in places where cats are non-native and should therefore either keep them indoors or on a leash.
You may not be hosting pirated material, but apparently it is popular to setup a plex server in hetzner and an auto-torrenter, and then sell access to it.
Non-scientific explanations of almost any phenomenon are going to be highly culturally dependent. It's not like it's new that people have seen unexplained things in the sky -- just prior to the modern understanding of the cosmos, people explained it as gods or spirits or omens or whatever. It used to be, in fact, that many more things in the sky were 'unexplained' (Comets, super novas, aurora, lightning, etc) and now we're reduced to a much smaller number of unexplained things.

It's a normal thing for people to look for the intentional action of some entity for anything that's unexplained, and in a lot a people it takes on a religious or spiritual character. For some people, aliens (and conspiracy theories in general) are their religious explanation for things they don't understand.

I think for us to have a scientific explanation for any of this stuff that _actually_ lands on aliens, you're going to have to systematically eliminate every other possible explanation, and the eventual theory would have to then go on to explain a large number of other phenomena in consistent ways.

They've been public for three years. Any VC that funded them had plenty of time to exit. It's like you're just regurgitating words you heard on wallstreetbets or something.
He didn't.

He was referring to the entirety of the TSA.

And they're not professionals, they're unskilled labor with extra steps.

I'd feel more inclined to empathy if TSA didn't turn every airport adventure into a souless anxiety spree for the sake of regularly failing to catch dangerous items brought onto aircraft.
"Best interests" is deliberately vague. Is it in their "best interests" that you fire the CEO and call the cops because he raped an intern? Or maybe that you agree to accelerate his $40M "bonus" if he agrees to resign without saying why? Or maybe it's in their "best interests" that you pay PIs to develop evidence that the intern has a drug habit and "leak" this "shocking revelation" to the media if they go public?

You can argue almost anything meets this criterion, in some egregious scenarios a court won't buy it, but they will give you enormous leeway.
priests tell folks god exists, and folks don't believe them, does that surprise you too?
This is a good start, but I'm going to be very curious to see if EU data law ever starts getting enforced against european companies at scale, as opposed to international companies.
Your point is a good one - what you're describing I've heard referred to as "the novelty effect". In fact, a lot in this article reminds me of another essay critical of the short-sightedness of many A/B tests:

A good walkthrough, but it doesn't mention how the ELF headers are interpreted and how the corresponding file sections (code, data, rodata) are mapped into the virtual address space of the process. It only covers the setup of the stack and the invocation of main.

Yeah, I thought the same thing without even reading the article: it has the same innards as a phone, with 3 times the screen size. Of course there's going to be some space. I imagine this gets more prominent as components get smaller.

Amazon's game engine is also open source under the name O3DE.
If the item has stayed the same and not exceeded inflation, you're doing fine. If it's stayed the same and is now lower than inflation, you're doing well. If it's a far superior item and is now lower than inflation, that is exceptional.
You'd be correct. Anyone that actually has to deal with regulators quickly understands how easy it is to game the regulations if you're someone of Meta's stature.
because even if I can't or shouldn't fix it, I want to be able to detect what is wrong with it
That was removed.

Epic's still remains. Yes, if Epic removes this feature of the license, we can be concerned. But, Epic's license means I can remain on the previous license that has these more favorable terms.
I would agree. I too met my wife on OkCupid and she happens to be the smartest woman I know. Her whole family is incredibly smart.

I had another OKC date from that era where the woman had a very high IQ, her father was a prolific author and her late 20’s brother was VP of ask.com at the time.

I had just assumed it was the Silicon Valley bubble clientele (and still just might’ve been). But only 3 years later I recall younger male coworkers describing how much dating apps declined and how terrible the dating scene had become with “swipe culture”.
He's also included pieces of Headless UI's embedded framework, which they use to minimize the differences between the different implementations. It's definitely not representative of regular code in the frameworks being compared to.
I think these trackers create privacy issues since these furry friends regularly traverse the neighborhood (walk on fences, walls, roofs, enter homes etc).

To me it’s interesting that a phone with that much battery life, CPU, memory, fast Wi-Fi, hi-res OLED display, and a pretty great camera is considered entry-level. It comes with an office suite and great music and video production apps.

It’s a remarkable achievement.
I can understand some very niche use cases, so it totally makes sense on the Pro. Like if you are using an iPhone for professional video work (sounds suspicious, but let’s go with that) then you can shoot in 4k raw directly onto a SSD. Or if you are doing some video editing on iPhone and want to hook up a 4k display.

People get so weird about this stuff though. I never once heard a complaint that iPhone was limited to USB2 speeds till the Pro finally upgraded to Usb3.
There is little benefit, but big harm in releasing the server. They would be responsible for supporting users in using the server, which could be little or big additional work. Releasing the server would also demand additional work for the release itself, like writing documentation, and fixing some errors. And it could also lower the little income they already have, and at least send the message that there are fewer reasons to financially support them and the development of Obsidian.

On the other side, the alternatives are working well enough, so there is not much reason to release the server.
Off-topic, but are you Cenk who used to work for Elektron?

The worst part is the perversion of justice of the author being provably right yet unable to enforce his legally binding contracts as an individual against a well resourced company. Hopefully this sparks a copyleft movement of public freedom.
My phone is plugged in at this very moment. It's how I transfer my photos because I find the Samsung integration with google drive is buggy.

That being said, I don't care if it's USB 2.0 or 3.0, it's just photos. My SD Card is probably the limiting factor in the transfer speed.
Legally speaking this would involve actually purchasing those outright. Sidestepping any questions about copyright assignment and rights reversion, the main problem here would be cost. Most companies that own works anyone of us care about significantly overvalue their ownership in the work, like to the point where ownership is either not for sale or would only be offered for a ludicrous price.

You'd be better off lobbying to weaken copyright protections. There are several charities interested in doing so, but they all have different kinds of baggage: donating to the FSF means Stallman's Way or the Highway, donating to the EFF means supporting Protect The Stack[0]. RPG[1] is run by Louis Rossmann who is fairly chill[2], but they're also the weakest in terms of anticopyright. Nobody wants to purely abolish or reform copyright; they want to do so as a means to achieve some other ends.

Putting that aside, there's also the problem that proposals to reform copyright go absolutely nowhere. Copyright maximalism is pretty uniformly supported by almost the entire US political class[3] and even very mild reforms like right-to-repair face fairly extreme bipartisan opposition. Not even the fascist-lite (DeSantis/Trump) wing of the Republican Party is willing to kick Disney in the copyright balls.

Illegally speaking, the Internet Archive is perfectly willing to publicly archive works they don't own, and they are saints for doing so. But they are also having their balls sued off.

Companies aren't cows. They know. Big companies always have people studying the larger economic trends of the markets they are in and looking into the future--you know, people who are always ignored if they point out anything or advocate anything that would be counter to this quarter's profits.
