Facts are not copyrightable, so the meat of a story spreads quickly and with very little money changing hands. One subscriber to the Los Angeles Times can legally and immediately share the factual essence of an article via social media, personal web site, email, or anything else. From there it can be reshared indefinitely. Only people who really want to read the original reporting in full will pay to subscribe to the LA Times.

There used to be regional/temporal barriers in place before the Web was popular; newspapers had geographically limited distribution and it took time to print a new edition. One newspaper "scooping" another by one day was all it took to get people to buy the one-day-earlier publication. Also, 20th century newspapers collected significant revenue from classified advertising, people buying the paper just to get a weather forecast, and other kinds of information distribution that really didn't have anything to do with investigative news. The Web unbundled all that (weather.gov, Craigslist, etc.) and the only remaining strength of newspapers was producing original reporting. Which, unfortunately, was never all that profitable on its own even before you get to the "facts are not copyrightable" issue that I mentioned in my first paragraph.
The European (ok, Swedish) attitude is: the authorities are there to enforce the law.

The American attitude is: the law is there to support the authorities.
It should be journalistic standard practice for every article covering a congressional vote to link to the government site that lists the votes.
EDIT FROM MYSELF: I think the .acsm which the shop gave me is broken. There are some sample .acsm's from Adobe which I've tested, and they work. But not the book I actually bought.

I gave DRM a chance. And similar to movies and shows, torrenting or other means seem way more usable. Time for the pirate hat, arrrrr.
>free teat to latch on to isn't the answer

It's the news sites' content that Google is scraping and monetizing. How is it not Google that's latched on to a "free teat"?

Serious question. What am I missing?

EDIT: Thanks for the downvotes everyone. I need 'em from time-to-time to ensure I've not succumbed to The Matrix.

Of course, you're all wrong. But, keep 'em coming!

> Plenty of poorly designed steel bridges from the 19th century have collapsed as well, despite the superior material.

Disagree. In late 19th century steel girder bridges were well understood and many of them survive to this day.

They were usually replaced due to changed demands (wider roads, heavier loads), not because of failure.
That is exactly what this is about. And no, the distinction isn't clear/made.

It's a longshot, but don't forget to apply for the DV lottery. Due to the unusual structure of the program NZ citizens have a higher chance of winning. Short of marriage it's by far the best visa, since it's a green card (permanent residence), not a work visa.

It's regarding my recent I-485 filing and my spouse's green card eligibility. Due to unforeseen family circumstances, my spouse and I are considering divorcing, but I want to ensure that my spouse's green card application is not jeopardized in the process. As the primary applicant, I am committed to supporting my spouse through the green card process before finalizing our divorce. To navigate this complex situation effectively, I would greatly appreciate your expert guidance on the following questions:

1. What are the potential risks to my spouse's green card eligibility if we proceed with the divorce after the application is approved?

2. What are the potential risks to my spouse's green card eligibility if we initialize the divorce before the application is approved?

3. What steps can I take to demonstrate the bona fide nature of our marriage and minimize any suspicions from USCIS regarding the timing of our divorce?

4. In the worst-case scenario, could my own green card application be jeopardized by this situation, and if so, what precautions can I take to protect my own immigration status?
Did you consider putting up solar to counteract the additional electrical load? Sure it would take 7-10 years to pay off the solar asset but after that its free electricity and heating. Something I'm playing with but its a bit more difficult in the city.
Yes, I do, and people should call.

It's dumb defeatist attitude that causes nothing to be done.
well you can solve the zoning issues "easily" - take the same approach they are taking with short term rentals - pass legislation. i don't see why impacting valuations can't be done to one group of people (residents) when it can be done to another (short term rental owners).

I'm no fan of short term rentals, but this seems more of case of trying to look like you are doing something - while doing it to a group of people that don't vote locally - rather than addressing the more fundamental issues.

Rather than trying to learn the latest innovations in these areas, focus instead on understanding the core. And you work on in a company doing this stuff, so I would say first and foremost learn from your colleagues! Talk to someone in each area, try to understand their role, and the key considerations in that role. You will get much deeper and more applicable learnings compared to anything online.
EDIT: try also to visit customers and suppliers (and the customers customers), to understand how your company is part of a supply chain
I'm in the US and the only time I've ever worked 80 hours/wk is when I was working for my own companies.

That said, I've had deadline in literally every place I've ever worked (including my own companies). Even if they're artificial, deadlines are important. Without them, procrastination can all too easily take root.
Lobbyists know how to play the game. Block local rules because it would be reasonable to have consistent standards state wide. Once that's achieved, block state wide rules. Then block federal rules.
Moisture causes corrosion.

Rivers produce lots of moisture.

Corrosion weakens the steel. It's literally the metal flaking away.

All steel corrodes. Even stainless.

Once corrosion sets in and the outside of the metal starts to pit, the corrosion speeds up drastically. (The old area vs volume thing, same thing that makes lump coal difficult to ignite while aerosolized coal dust is practically an explosive).

Here's a modern US bridge - all steel - that collapsed in Pittsburgh two years ago. In some areas over 80% of the original steel thinkness was gone after 49 years.

Neat little problem! You could do SAT-solvers and stuff, but it's also obviously a graph search problem: each state is a vertex, each edge is an operation that leads to another vertex. So, obviously: Dijkstra works (or really just BFS, since the edges are unweighted), but not the fastest in the world.

The fun one to play with would be A-star, but you'd have to find a suitable heuristic. One obvious candidate is that if you have target list that is X long and a current list that is Y long, then you need at least abs(Y - X) steps to get there (since each step either adds or removes a number). That's admissable and would probably speed up the search quite a bit compared to regular BFS, but you could probably do a lot better. I'm thinking a heuristic based on the number of inversions or something.

I would suspect if you found a really good heuristic for A-star, that's about as good as you're going to get. Though maybe there's something more clever I'm not spotting.

What do Florida voters think about it?
State theory and specifically the state theory relating to legal practice like "state treaties and processes" is a very small subset of political theory, let alone political philosophy. There is a broad range of political theory outside that narrow subset and "direct democracy" has a specific meaning distinct from representative democracy.

Redefining it as a subset of representative democracy through the introduction of participatory processes makes sense when talking in a context where representative democracies are taken for granted but it is extremely unhelpful when talking in a broader scope where representative democracies are merely one of many categories of systems. There's a reason the PDF references the French Revolution rather than the Paris Commune and describes democracy merely in a (largely ahistorical TBH) European context informed by the Enlightenment era and limits the idea of decentralisation to the federalism of cantons rather than exploring it further: it's not about analysis, it's about creating a national mythology and a historical narrative that has the present system as an inevitable end state that can only be built upon but not fundamentally changed.

And all of this is really a red herring because the original argument was about whether the system Switzerland has makes it unnecessary to appeal to a super-national court in order to force a decision. And given that referendums and public initiatives still require a majority in order to pass the answer is clearly no.

Given that the claim is that the (in)action of the Swiss government accelerates/intensifies the climate catastrophe and that this effectively violates the human rights of a minority group (i.e. seniors are more likely to die from severe weather events like heatwaves) and that referendums have not helped change the (in)action of the government, a referendum is the wrong instrument as the question is not what the majority wants but whether a minority has their fundamental rights violated.

You can argue that the ECHR court was wrong to agree that this is a violation of the rights asserted by the ECHR. You can argue that Switzerland should leave the ECHR and replace it with a different human rights bill - and assuming you have the requisite legal status in Switzerland you can even attempt to force this question with a public initiative. You could also simply argue that they should have sued the Swiss government in a Swiss court of law first (I'm not sure how the Federal Supreme Court works but presumably the process would be a bit more involved) before taking this to an international level. But the ECHR court is ultimately the right addressee when arguing a signatory's violation of the ECHR, "direct" democracy or not.

Jefftk I'm in the same boat -- what I'm going to have to do if I want to do the air to water heating is bring in a booster/combo unit that will boost the water temp to make the house the right temp. So I'm still tied to gas but much lower amounts - heat pump does the majority of the work and I still have protection on very low temp days.

> You saying "I'm not seeing that anywhere" assumes you made the effort to look.

I did, and it's not a good faith argument to claim otherwise.

> People aren't going to do the homework for you.

You're the one making the claim. It's your homework, not mine.

> I don't have anything to prove.

You made a claim, so it is in fact yours to prove.

Given your refusal to back up your claim, it's beginning to look like you are just lying.

EDIT: I am seeing that there was an adoption of an EU regulation which modified the law, not repealed it, which is pretty different from the claim you're making[1]:

> BRUSSELS, June 22 (Reuters) - Alphabet (GOOGL.O)
, opens new tab reopened Google News in Spain on Wednesday, eight years after it shut down the service because of a Spanish rule forcing the company and other news aggregators to pay publishers for using snippets of their news.

> Madrid last year transposed European Union copyright rules, revamped in 2020, into legislation, allowing media outlets to negotiate directly with the tech giant.

To be clear: Google is still required to pay publishers in Spain: the change is that the price is negotiable.

So, it's becoming clear now why you refused to link a source: because you are wrong. And since now I am making a claim, I'm linking it:

There isn't a single physical product that's not beholden to the Walmarts of the world to stock, market and highlight those products. There isn't a single farmer in this world that isn't dependant on stores buying off their produce and putting it into shelves.

Heck, even in paper era, there wasn't a single paper not beholden to kiosks and other stores to put their papers into racks and into premium places where customers are most likely to pick them up. Do you hink NYTimes demanded that street vendors pay them for the privilege of putting their paper onto a rack?!

Having fully vertically integrated bussiness (like you're mentioning) is a very modern development of monopolies.

Going back a few decades, newspapers were dependent on the newsstands they were sold out of. They could put your paper higher or lower on the stand (ranking).

Going back not as far, CNN was dependent on your local cable company to deliver their signal to homes. Charter or Comcast could choose to stop carrying a channel altogether.
Let's stop trying to pick a side here... Maybe it's more of a symbiotic relationship. Google gets a useful news page, the news media get links to their articles.

I honestly could care less about either of them. I think they should just fight it out on their own and keep our legal system and tax payers time and money out of it.
Yes, this is a time-tested approach complete with shopworn phrases you have definitely heard from lobbying firms and their boughten politicians.

One day they ominously warn of 'one-size-fits all solutions"; in the very next breath, on a different issue, it's a "regulatory patchwork" that threatens honest capitalist.
> wouldn't they say that we are actually much wealthier per capita and more much productive than we were back then?

Wealthier (higher QoL, longer life expectancy etc) and more much productive, yes. However, affordability is lower precisely because everyone is more wealthy, so they demand more compensation (incentive to work), so every person has to now earn even more to afford to pay someone else more.

Globalization has put an upward pressure on wealth globally and has a deflating impact on affordability, which is in contrast to the unique position the U.S. was in allowing its citizens to enjoy extreme wealth growth right off WWII.

So yes, people are wealthier and more much productive, but they can afford less because everyone else are wealthier and more much productive as well and can compete for the same resources better than they were able to before (it's not that exciting to be a millionaire if everyone is also a millionaire).
What exactly is being "monetized" when a search result is displayed for a news article that will bring the users to news site where they'll earn ad money to the news outlet?

The news outlet can use robots.txt to prevent indexing. If Google doesn't bring them value, there's the easy answer.

This version is substantially better than the previous versions that didn't pass.

I consider dropping the warrant requirement from the last attempt as not much of a loss, since the previous FISA applications were being rubber-stamped anyway.

Forcing another vote in two years is better than the original 8, and better than the failed compromise of 5 in my book. Not as good as it should have been (not reauthorizing at all), better than it could have been.

There is a business relationship between Walmart/Costco and the product or a competitor of the product. In the Google News case, there is no business relation with any news site (Alphabet ads might have a relation with the news site, but that is not Google News).
Except that this "lots of power" option does not exist. What limits the amount of power used is the circuit breakers and fuses on the panel, which protect the wiring against overheating by tripping when too much power is being used (or when there's a short circuit). The resident in this analogy would need to ensure that not only the transformer, but also the wiring leading to the transformer, can handle the higher current, and replace the circuit breaker or fuses.

And then everyone on that neighborhood would still lose power, because there's also a set of fuses upstream of the transformer, and they would be sized for the correct current limit even when the transformer is oversized. These fuses also protect the wiring upstream of the transformer, and their sizing and timings is coordinated with fuses or breakers even further upstream so that any fault is cleared by the protective device closest to the fault.

No one is encouraging people to just 'walk into the country', where are you getting this from? It's illegal, they try to stop it, it's not perfect (never has been). If you cross the border illegaly, chances are you have many years of hard work and uncertainty ahead of you before you can begin to feel a peace. Please don't glorify illegal immigration as if they're all just getting free meal tickets and living happily ever after. It's a very hard decision made after years of suffering, not an easy way out.

Looking at this and the "Five Guys Program" makes me think true democracy just isn't possible just like true socialism. Yet written laws were the foundations of America. Courts are supposed uphold the constitution. Bombs were dropped all over the world to spread "democracy" even in countries that never asked for it because they were already doing fine.

Democracy, socialism, ideas are seductive in the minds of the collective until it becomes warped overtime to resemble the minds of whoever is running it. In America's case its those with the most to lose or those with lot of capital. Why are they so paranoid? What do they fear?

We live in a "free democratic country" yet we need to be watched all the time and not have rights that was written up long time ago as fundamental ideological tenets to prevent becoming exactly as those countries that we blame and label on mainstream media as "unfree non-democratic inhumane country"?

"When you do business with authoritarian countries, you end up resembling them" quote has been realized. Sad situation for America but also the West.

> The 4090 can't even do inference at all on anything over 24GB, while ASi can chug through it even if slightly slower.

Common LLM runners can split model layers between VRAM and system RAM; a PC rig with a 4090 can do inference on models larger than 24G.

Where the crossover point where having the whole thing on Apple Silicon unified memory vs. doing split layers on a PC with a 4090 and system RAM is, I don't know, but its definitely not “more than 24G and a 4090 doesn't do anything”.
