I would be unsurprised Disney has skeletal outlines of lawsuits in place already asserting that uses of Mickey Mouse from Steamboat Willie in an unrelated video game or something violates their trademark, and are just waiting to fill in the blank for the first person audacious enough to do it.

I kind of expect them to win that. But maybe they won't. Still, I wouldn't touch Mickey with anything less than the metaphorical ten foot pole and a really, really solidly constructed LLC or other corporate structure isolating it from any other asset I care about.

Note I am limiting this to just things they have clear trademark to. Grab the steamboat itself and do as you like. The soundtrack will be up for grabs. But I wouldn't expect to be able to defend myself in a trademark suit with the claim that the Mickey Mouse I used is not copyrighted; I expect the counterargument will basically "Yeah, but who cares? This is a trademark lawsuit".

> Tell me true, if you can't buy them how on earth it is piracy to download them?

My daughter, doing a journalism course assignment, once asked Maddy Prior of Steeleye Span (not a _huge_ artist, but reasonably well known towards the end of last century) about this. Maddy's comment was basically the same. She'd rather you bought something legally, but if it's not available (some of their back catalogue had disappeared) then Maddy thought it was fine to 'pirate' it.
That's not the same risk because 23andme also has name, address, email.

One risk if you have PII+genome is that a technically sophisticated entity can determine if you've physically been in a location. Also with an extensive PII+genome database they could find your family, for example for blackmail purposes.

Another risk is that a health insurance provider could deny you based on potential health issues they find in your genome.
Yes, but on the other hand, people who don't care can create huge images (especially in Node.js and Java ecosystems) that slow down CI and have a large attack surface.

Isn't their point that docker brought incrementalness to this?

So just like when you change one c file you don't have to recompile the whole project, updating the last layer in the image should only require a few mb of transfer, the base layers would only be transfered once.
Alternatively, their "living life" was just work. The modern concept of leisure was non-existent outside the very elite until well into the industrial revolution. For the billions of people who moved away from subsidence farming into factories were willing to make the trade off between working more in exchange for more security.
Exporting raw genetic data is conveniently "temporarily unavailable" at the time time this bullshit is happening, which is something I'm almost certain discovery would prove is an intentional choice by them.

I think a vacancy tax would be useful for the residential market as well--at least in New York, there are many luxury apartments sitting empty, because they are bought as investments and/or money-laundering efforts; the owner may never intend to live in them.

This has a negative impact on a city, both in driving up prices for the actual residents, and in distorting the texture of a neighborhood.

If you want to have multiple homes that sit unoccupied for most of the year, you should definitely pay a punitive vacancy tax.

I used to think of the situation as an appartheid too as it seemed to be the most accurate comparison but if found that the more I learned about the situation that that comparison was not helpful at all unless your only purpose is to say that the situation of Palestinians is immoral (which it can be without being "appartheid")
Marijuana, like all psychoactive drugs, is known to trigger latent mental disorders, which is the primary reason it was made a controlled drug in the first place. It is also known to cause infertility in men and women due to the interaction between THC and various hormones.

It also has a number of other negative health effects (e.g., lung cancer, popcorn lung, asthma, etc.) if smoked as weed or vaped which are generally avoided if marijuana is consumed as an edible or liquid.

You usually nuke stories that are political. I'm not being critical, it clearly leads to significant improvement over similar sites.

What makes this one different? When I see a headline like this, I usually assume I managed to see it before you did, and if I refresh the page that it will probably disappear. So again, and without accusation, what's different?

Bad things happen all over the world, nearly constantly or at least it seems to a cynic like myself. Some of those bad things seem... if not fixable, then at least not intractable. Those stories don't seem welcome here though. Surely the situation in Israel and Palestine is as intractable as any, and so much more than most.
The award part is worst part of the game award and personally one of the reason I watch it is especially to see a Kojima premiere and I wasn't disappointed when he announced he was going to collaborate with Jordan Peele.
Yeah, I think that was a general estimate I found some supporting research for a few years back when I looked into it a bit, and I've seen similar quoted elsewhere.

It's not easy to come up with an accurate number at all due to all the different state systems not being perfectly comparable, treating different things in different ways, and duplicating individuals who have convictions in more than one state. Even attempts to link them together have been incomplete and inaccurate.

I'm not particularly surprised at that level, though... it's going to include _lots_ of low-level things that are technically classified criminal even though they're often just a ticket: kids caught with beer at a party, speeding in areas that have a "20 over the limit" rule that automatically upgrades to a higher offense, failure to pay tickets that gets escalated to a court, etc...
Supposedly Google's Pixel Buds support it!

I can only suspect why it's still so rare, but my guess would be either a fear of unknown patent claims, a lack of readily available hardware implementations, or a combination of both.

Motorola 68k was really fashionable for a while in the 1980s but then Motorola gave up on it and everybody who was dependent on it either went out of business or switched to RISC architecture.

For some reason, nobody outside the PC world was interested in the 386. When Apple was struggling throughout the 1990s there was always the rumor circulating that Apple had developed a 386 version of Classic MacOS but it never saw the light of day. For one thing a company like Sun Microsystems or Apple that specializes in making computers that are much more expensive than PCs would not want people to get anywhere near the PC clone ecosystem where you can pay less and get a lot more.
What a revelatory comparison, hidden entirely [from my Republican-led-state upbringing] in plain sight. Thank you [and please, go on...]:
Well, Hamas does govern Gaza, plus the blockade ensures Gaza is all but deprived of any material resources it needs to thrive.
Of course it is also easy to find in UK.
>Pascal was ridiculed back in the day for... lack of curly braces, as far as I can tell?

Also for poor string and array handling. The classic implementations used a single byte to store the length of strings, and the length of an array was fixed and was part of its type. Though no-one could accuse K&R C of having good string or array facilities, the language was at least free of these absurd limitations.
Financial services tend to have a lot of compliance related things thrown at them.

The crazy thing is, it wouldn't surprise me if they did this on purpose to capitalize in the future. How else can they get $529,000 to copy git repos from a backup back up onto GitHub?

Unless maybe they have no backups in which case, how is it possible that a banking institution could have code that lasted 50+ years without backups. Also the damages without backups would likely be more than $529,000 because they just lost the entire history of their apps.
It seems very much more likely that YT has ineffective moderation than that it doesn't want to take down scam ads.
There was a time before people called websites "platforms". A time before gigantic websites full of thousands of other people's uploaded files, where the websites are used for surveillance and advertising delivery. The operators of these mega websites, posing as so-called "tech" companies, argue they are providing a valuable "service" to web users, valued at a price of zero dollars. Truly they are only interested in providing a service to advertisers. If advertisers stop paying, the operators will be forced to scale back the surveillance as it's too expensive to host peoples' files for free. If people are paying for their own hosting, like they pay for internet access, then third party websites cannot claim ownership to access logs for peoples' files and other metadata that is useful for advertising.
In your opinion what are the chances of having an early election to replace Netanyahu? AFAICT it requires a non-confidence vote in the Knesset, but how likely do you think this could happen?

> The law only mentions content provider

No, actually, the law mentions "interactive computer service" as the protected entity. And it defines the term. Yes, that definition explicitly includes ISPs, since there were rising demands that they offer content filtering which would, under the existing precedent, incur publisher liability, but it also extends beyond it, and the motivating cases were not about ISPs qua ISPs.

It refers to information content providers, but those are the people who are liable, and whose existence distinct from the interactive computer service makes the interactive computer service not liable. It also rather specifically defines that term, as well. See, generally, 47 USC Sec. 230(f)

> As such its impossible to be wrong in interpretation

No, its not.

> because all interpretations are allowed as the law is written

Well, if you ignore the actual text of the law as badly as you are, I can see where you would get that idea.

> which is precisely why everybody online is granted blanket immunity.

No, everyone online is not granted blanket immunity; people online have successfully been sued for various torts.

> That is the greatest example of tort reform as all torts are expressly eliminated to/from all parties.

That's...not how Section 230 works, in practice, nor is it even consistent with the rest of your argument (which is that it was implicitly through vagueness, not explicitly), which, as already stated, is also wrong.
This is very insightful, thanks. I'm currently in the middle ground where I still want mentoring from the technical leads on some things, but I also have enough seniority to be mentoring new hires. You've articulated the way I think our tech leads are often not great at explaining themselves, while also giving me something to think about when passing on information to newbies.
I appreciate the need for some sovereign oversight of telecoms for security reasons, but I have never understood why Canada disallows foreign companies to operate a telecom or mobile operator entirely. If Verizon or AT&T started installing cellular infrastructure in Canada, prices would fall overnight with no appreciable loss of security. It’s protectionism pure and simple.
Sure you can use safe C++ with some effort, but the libraries you use most likely still use unsafe C/C++. For Rust, I expect that the libraries are much safer in general.
>More than that, what killed Pascal on the PC was Borland leaving the small devs market.

Correct. My memory is vague on this, plus I don't know a lot about it, but I think people were even creating commercial shrink-wrapped software in Turbo Pascal, in its heyday. And of course in Delphi too, later.
>Was it required he even show up to work? Presumably the checks would keep coming.

He had to show up at work because he was never formally fired. If he hadn't showed up at work but still collect his paychecks then it would have been breaking the law and the company would have clawed back all paychecks. By showing up at work he was just fulfilling his contractual obligations, it wasn't his fault nobody gave him any work to do so he was legally entitled to collect paychecks while playing games and doing side projects at work.

> There are many people around me who seemingly do nothing, he would just blend into the crowd.

Not always the case. It might be a thing in large enterprises of US/Anglophone countries from what I noticed, but in German speaking countries it's not really common for people to show up at the office and do nothing all day, the efficiency and work ethic tends to be relatively higher, especially at smaller offices. So you stand out, people will gossip and eventually someone above will inquire about that guy without a team doing nothing.

Sure, you can lie to everyone around you about why you're still here without your team doing nothing so they stop asking questions, but lying can still be considered a felony here if the thing ends up in court and get you in actual legal trouble later as they will still find out eventually about you, so it's best to be honest and legally enjoy the ride while it lasts.

To misquote Bryan Cantrill, one should not make the mistake of anthropomorphizing Netanyahu.

When a nationalist politician like him is faced with an event like this, long-term international diplomacy considerations barely enter the picture.

The violence just comforted him in his previous worldviews, all he saw was that his nationalistic policies were justified and the only viable answer was to be even more of a nationalist.

I don't see any reality where he didn't have the most violent response he could get away with.
Thanks. I had no idea that existed.
The P in HIPAA stands for "Portability," not "Privacy."
I am not aware that the aiframe is the main reason why planes are taken out of service. Fuel inefficiency is typically the primary reason, plus increased maintenance cost. I can't remember an accident of a major airliner as a result of the airframe failing post the 1970s.

Will be interesting to look at fatigue of the control surfaces though, if they get used many times more per flight to adjust for minor turbulences.

It is the case when you use a default malloc, default memcpy, or default string functions from libc.

In ClickHouse, we use jemalloc as a memory allocator and custom memcpy: https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/blob/master/base/gl...

So, the Musl build does not imply performance degradations. But the usage of Musl is not related to Docker, because ClickHouse is a single self-contained binary anyway, and it is easy to use without Docker.

The first problem I commonly see is called "Delores Thesaurus". It turns out people find like 50 different ways to say the same damned thing. Maybe with LLM based sentiment search we don't have to be so exact in how people ask the same question?

Also this information getting stale or out of date commonly leads to people not going back and gardening because of the massive amount of work involved, such as adding versioning when you figure out there are 10 different product behaviors over time.

One non-theoretical risk is that you or a relative leaves DNA on the scene of a crime you didn't commit (or?), and this makes you a suspect. This is also assuming a real identity is tied to the DNA.
Perhaps I'm missing something, but the comment I responded to doesn't talk at all about moving and talks quite a bit about how they lived a life in the edge of not having enough calories and regularly suffered from famine and malnutrition.
I work in this space, and your comment is completely wrong. Data covered by HIPAA is always covered by HIPAA. A covered entity would also include a health insurer, and all payment intermediaries, this is straight from the HHS faq (https://www.hhs.gov/hipaa/for-professionals/faq/covered-enti...)
Opportunity cost is definitely one thing I had in mind. Other than that, my peers were committed to various things like fundraising for charitable organisations, doing something good by serving people in one way or another, voluntarily taking up responsibilities or just becoming a more well-rounded person by spending their time doing various things instead of just one thing.

While they all did that, I just stayed at home playing games instead and acted like the sole purpose of life was to enjoy myself which is something worth regretting (and happy I've made some progress since then).

When you buy health insurance, you sign a temporary HIPAA release (limited duration) to cover the period that they are underwriting. They can only query your specific pharmacy records for the purposes of underwriting. So yes, this is a HIPAA violation when it is being used by the police. I work in this space with HIPAA data.
My rule of thumb is to hesitate before giving advice if I can't come up with an anecdotal story to support it. Stories are more useful than generalizations because they come with the context, and can be dismissed in different contexts. At risk of presently breaking this rule of thumb, I'll give an example. When I notice code being structured with class inheritance, I'll point out a part of the codebase where I did similar, and how poorly it turned out, which someone can observe for themself. It started out nice, as it usually does, but devolved over time as complexity accumulated in parent classes to handle scenarios in child classes.
In Python is possible to do something quite similar, using itertools:

from itertools import pairwise, chain

def f(): yield from chain([0,1], map(sum, pairwise(f())))

There's a Joel Grus post discussing it: https://joelgrus.com/2015/07/07/haskell-style-fibonacci-in-p...

The introduction of pairwise in 3.10 made possible to write it more compactly, when compared to the version discussed by Joel.

Israel's response tends to stem from a history of oppression which is where it gets touchy. Jewish have not exactly been treated well for most of the 20th century. Not saying that is a reason to invoke that upon someone else, but it tends to be where most thoughts come from. A sense of if we don't do something we'll lose "our" home.
