Regardless of the fact that California is much, much more strict in what they allow, to the point where oftentimes a company’s lawyers won’t even try:

Fine. Don’t fight, I agree, that would be an unfair fight and a waste of time/money.

The US court system requires a “good faith” effort to settle the issue before it enters the legal system. A cease and desist for example— whatever it is, you’d have plenty of time to simply decide it’s not worth it and remove the code once they take notice.

As it is, this is all no harm, no foul.
[1] lists exceptions in section 8. Mostly, they are entities that are already subject to substantially more stringent reporting requirements such as banks, entities registered with the SEC, and so on:

> Many of these exempt entities are already regulated by federal and/or state government, and many already disclose their beneficial ownership information to a governmental authority.

The one exemption that I found unexpected was the following:

> (xxi) Large operating companies with more than 20 full-time employees, more than $5,000,000 in gross receipts or sales, and an operating presence at a physical office within the United States.

It's not clear to me why such entities need to be excluded from reporting. It's true that they are much less likely to be shell companies, but still...why? Also, get below $5M one year or let go of your 21st employee, and get ready for the left-field fine from FinCEN.

As much as I want to agree with you, I can't blame Google here. Corporate security departments have bought into the idea that mobile is different and you can't trust the user with root.

Google has little choice but to provide them with the tools to detect root access.
Burning PVC is very toxic, but ABS is no better in that regard, nor are most other plastics with the exception of pure alkanes.

AFAIK the health scare is mainly around the plasticisers used to make PVC (very) flexible, but rigid PVC pipe does not contain any plasticiser.
Yes you can but still need to mention the original licence and copyright notice. But your end product can be proprietary, or released under other license such as the GPLv3.
Yeah, but you also need to compare it with real world data. Without grounding, the simulation will be very limited.

So you need to understand the real-world monetary flows to a sufficient level of detail. You need to understand who actually owns what, and how the power is exerted. And the rich people are against that, for example, in most developed countries (with IIRC notable exception of Norway and Sweden) the tax fillings are private.

Also, it's kind of difficult to understand actual production, because private companies keep the data on production costs secret.

On top of that, there is little culture of data sharing in economics profession. Again, mostly because the data are very valuable to companies and individuals, profit takes precedence to public understanding.

So the fact of the matter is, lot of powerful people (and perhaps most middle class as well) don't want the level of transparency required to build a meaningful model.

It's true that nobody will come after you if you try to program it. But also, you won't get much support from the existing, mostly neoliberal, institutions.
Also, the town square is ephemeral. Sure, maybe it's written down somewhere, heck maybe the local scribe even publishes it in the next day's paper. But it won't show up 7 years later as the third Google search result when someone searches your name.

You either need the right to be forgotten, or the right to be anonymous.

Ah, so a bait-and-switch. It's not open source, and not permissively licensed.
I agree with your main point.

FWIW, FMV is agnostic of cost.
Few scientific hypothesis have been tested by so much money as that there is no alpha in the market. I mean, the amount of money that goes into proving that wrong is perhaps larger than what went into finding the Higgs boson.
Thanks, and agreed.
How ironic though, working on that fantasy is near certainly not economically viable. This blog post is merely procrastination that preempted job seeking.

> A San Francisco police spokesperson told The Standard the threat was allegedly made by a Unity employee who is out-of-state and that the company was “unable to reach the outside jurisdiction to make a report.”

???
Where on earth does this employee live that a company was not able to make a police report in their jurisdiction? I've had to call local police departments in other states a couple of times and it was never more complicated than a matter of looking up the non-emergency phone number and dialing. This is a very strange addition to an already strange story.

That wouldn't be a problem, just look at climate science, it has decent models of very complicated systems, grounded in real-world understanding. But it requires lot of data to be collected and made available for people who do these simulations.

Textbooks aren't publicly funded research. And writing a brief summary of publcly funded research is actually new content.

It's a massive stretch trying to tie publicly funded research to this.
I feel similarly. It’s a cool tech but priced so it can’t take off.

They should focus on reducing resource need so they can cut price.

By focusing on big enterprises it starts a spiral because those companies can afford airtable, but they can also afford data engineering teams that don’t need airtable.

It’s worth reading the review in full, but you should know it includes your “sexual activity.” Not to be out done, Kia also mentions they can collect information about your “sex life” in their privacy policy. Oh, and six car companies say they can collect your “genetic information” or “genetic characteristics.” Yes, reading car privacy policies is a scary endeavor

That one, for me, is sorta like the ballerina thing, in that with a small mental effort I can make it switch between the two states. But honestly my first glance at it, they look largely "flush" - not a super strong 3d effect in either direction.
And the open tools often end up with more transferable skills down the road: e.g. learning to deploy to AWS only helps with AWS; learning to deploy to k8s lets you be productive in a lot more situations.
https://lexica.art/ can definitely provide such an interface to users to discover new prompts and explore the latent space of already generated public AI images on its platform.
One more: PVC bike rack.

I bought a ratcheting PVC cutter and honestly am not sure if I would have been able to complete the project without it.

One note: most instructions suggested doing a “dry fit” but I found that the pipes slid into the connectors much farther once they had PVC glue on them. Not a big deal, but everything ended up smaller than planned as a result.
There were many books and how-to guides at the time to add solar water heaters. Anybody who wanted one could install one. I know people who did. They didn't need permission from Reagan.

Mozilla is one of the parties most damaged by Google’s anti-competitive efforts, though. If Chrome had to be self-sufficient and couldn’t rely on paid promotion on Google sites, not to mention other Google apps “accidentally” having bugs or performance issues in Firefox, the browser market would be a lot more competitive. Mozilla has already been in a bad place since Google decided to keep them just viable enough to serve as an antitrust defense, breaking the stranglehold would be tumultuous but also the first chance of getting into a better position for the first time in years.

I also wouldn’t read too much into Bing’s first AI round. It’s better than Google Bard but neither is trustworthy and the search market isn’t going shift to treacherous chat bots. The general quality of the regular search has been improving, however, and they seem to be getting better at least as quickly as Google is making their service worse. When I’ve done side-by-side comparisons they’re a lot closer than used to be the case - Google updates their index notably faster, but has less spam control and neither is as good as Google was half a decade ago.
To be clear my comment was meant as a joke.

I went from a Core i9 to an M1 Max and it's been a world of difference. Performance is great, it runs my dual 4K screens with scaling (3008x1692, virtual resolution 6016x3384) without a sweat, and the battery lasts forever.
This is ridiculous take.

Textbooks aren't publishing what "was already paid for with taxpayer money". By that same logic if I write a book that summarizes all the scientific research in a certain area, then I don't deserve copyright. That makes no sense.

Writing a textbook is no different than writing a piece of fiction. It takes actual work to do, and it's original content.

And if you don't want to buy the latest edition for your class blame the professor. Most of them are too lazy to actually use older editions and save student hundreds of dollars.

Samsung probably has great trust developed among its senior management.
I don't think free/paid is the thing that will stop the decline because the downfall is adversarial input. If Kagi got huge people would start trying to SEO against them and they would end up like Google. Because I really don't think Google is bad because of the ads, it's bad because people desperately want their shitty site to be the first organic result rather than pay for the ad spot.

Having a huge behemoth that competitors like Kagi can fly under the radar with might be the only way for any search engine to maintain quality.
They also did almost no promotion - I’m assuming the plan was to push the product further ahead and then start a big campaign but the VC money drying up killed that.
Apple made them the default because they are the best at monetization of large volumes of search queries from iOS devices. If another company was better at it, they'd put in a higher bid and rake in the profits.
1992.
Rising prices reduce demand. But there are competitors. That's why a company cannot just raise prices.
I have to say I'm disappointed with the focus on defaults here. Defaults are important, but they're also mostly a bidding war. It's not like Microsoft has no money.

The real issue is the tying. They build this conglomerated system that all comes together as one blob, and get third parties to depend on various parts of it to prevent them from being swapped out individually. Then to replace one of them you have to be able to replace the others, which makes it very hard for any but the largest corporations to compete.

Capturing the search default on Android is a tiny piece of what they do with it, and the part that would barely make any difference to the search market when the alternative would be that they just pay for it. Or let people choose them, since that's the market where they have the strongest brand and it's all the ancillary markets that they might not have dominated where the consequences are greater.

And then they wouldn't have to deal with this:

> The question that matters most, though, is whether Judge Mehta can be convinced that consumer harm applies to free products like search engines.

Because they could get them for the 30% cut on Google Play.

Advertising isn't a dissimilar tack when you cast the advertiser as the customer, but then you're stuck trying to prove that Google wouldn't have had a dominant search engine without doing this, when they had one before doing this.
This seems to be common in contemporary journalism, most notoriously in "crime reporting" that is often just rewritten press releases from the police. Trump is an interesting point of comparison; my recollection is that it took years for mainstream outlets to treat his statements with skepticism. There was a period where calling his bald-faced lies "lies" was a hotly-contested ethical issue.

Unfortunately, journalism is not free of bias towards the particular incentives that the writers, editors, and publishers are subject to.
To say that you must have no idea how cheap helicopter flight is now, and how expensive lab equipment of that caliber is.

Please pop several pegs forward or back on the Dunning Kruger chart please.

> The implication that these are comparably impactful constitutional questions is risible.

A century of a growing administrative state and sweeping anti-democratic social changes that have no basis in the constitution is pretty impactful.

> Further: zero is the number of Republicans that would accept the constitutionality of the argument you're making were the roles reversed.

Maybe, but the roles are rarely reversed because they’re not nearly as creative in their legal positions. Even here—imagine what more you could justify by looking at the “penumbras” and “emanations” of that clause of Article II! (Or the second amendment, or the tenth amendment, etc.) Just imagine a 6-3 conservative Supreme Court that all approached the constitutional text the way Breyer did.

> This whole thread of argument you're making is, and this is saying something, distinctively hard to assume good faith about.

I’ve thought direct election of the President (and Senators) was stupid ever since 1L constitutional law. The GOP is just finally coming around.
I agree with Krapp.
You wouldn't buy that stock because you represent people with short term interests. And that's the point.

You're a gambler, you dive in and immediately exit. Nobody buys assets this way in reality... when you buy a car or toothbrush you don't dip in and dip out like a mad man. Paper stocks removes reality away from assets and lets you buy 0.000001% of a shoe and immediately sell it in 1 second. The economy isn't improved, and instead you create a market of buying and selling paper. It's too abstracted. We need to lower the abstraction.

People buy assets for utility and long term investments. When people do HFS it's basically a gambling ring, you're making money off one idiot trying to sell paper to the next idiot. This influences the board which influences corporate behavior to cater to your gambling tendencies.

10 year terms makes it so you make money by putting your money in an ACTUAL investment to create something better. The company caters to your long term interests. You invest in Tesla because you expect the company to change the entire automobile industry and you expect that business endeavor to succeed in 10 years. Hype, bullshit and just trying shit out because gamestop seems fun will no longer be part of the equation.

Maybe 10 years is too long. Make it 5 years.

>Again, who would buy that stock? What reward is worth that risk, especially when you've banned them from selling stock even if they see the company is doing shady stuff?

Right so if the company knows this, then they wouldn't do shady stuff because they need to establish a reputation such that a person is willing to entrust a 5-10 year investment with them. The point of this restriction is to create incentive for companies to be good.

Corporate psychology is psychopathic due to the disconnect between action and responsibility. Criminal action is abstracted, long term gain is abstracted, the point is to remove these abstractions.

Who would buy the stock you ask? People who think the company is good. People who believe in the company. Not people who want to gamble on the company.

Thus if those are the ONLY people buying stocks. Then you tell me. What does a company HAVE to DO to cater to those PEOPLE? They have to be better. Truly better.

If you remove all abstraction away from the financial system you get rid of the dollar and suddenly you have the bartering system which is way to inefficient. But you make the abstraction to high and suddenly you have bitcoin and a bunch of other cryptos representing worthless shit. And you get corporations who have the mass psychology equivalent to a psychopath. It's a gradient of abstraction and I think we're too far on the abstraction side of things. We need to lower it a bit and that's what my proposal is doing. Unlikely to ever happen though.
We didn't know this and I'm realizing now were incredibly lucky!
A spreadsheet UI didn’t relate to Box’s core business because Box didn’t sell spreadsheet UIs. Box could have had the author’s hobby project been adopted as a feature but explicitly chose not to. The author clearly owned that bit if they did it on their own resources and own time.

In other words, you can write generally useful components and utilities on your own time, network, and equipment; license them to your employer if everyone agrees; and either way you still own them. You just can’t write something directly related to or competitive with the products or processes that make your employer money.

The spreadsheet formulae and enhancements the author wrote during work hours at Uber, though, no. But even just their direct boss as an agent of their employer saying it’s ok to throw it on GitHub would probably cut them loose, especially since it’d be a derivative work with joint ownership.

All IMO of course, but that’s how I would have seen it in their shoes.

I had my blog for two decades now.

- Make it a PERSONAL website. Not a brand, not a content marketing experiment, just a place where I post things that I'm interested in.

- Publish and finish. Post things and improve them over time. I now have "timeless posts" above the more ephemeral posts.

- Sometimes chronological order is not enough.
Hey there everyone, I'm looking to get feedback on a concept I'm working on under my brand. Resin's intended purpose is to be a sales enablement tool that allows users to trade intros to qualified leads in their network in exchange for meetings with people they are prospecting.

I'm looking to get feedback on the mockups, landing page, and the pricing of $89/mo. We're planning to launch around early 2024, and I'm wanted to get as much feedback as possible before I pull the trigger on development. Some of the key features will be

- Multiple CRM integrations

- Targeted intro qualifications

- Chrome extension

- Prospect Enrichment

We're talking about the potential of supporting different types of offers in the future, but for now I want to experiment with and focus on network-led prospecting. Also, we will enable users to identify the right qualified intros by enriching prospect data, which users will use to find potential customer overlaps in their network for intros.

Mockups:
