> Licensing something under the GPL doesn't work like this.

Sure it does! The GPL covers this exact scenario.

Section 7 enumerates the additional restrictions you may include alongside the license which will apply to any further distribution. Those are mostly around indemnification, trademarks, etc.

It explicitly says all other non-permissive additions are considered further restrictions and if the program says it is covered by GPL you may remove those terms.

(There’s also section 10, but we don’t need it.)

Since the README says this is “under GPL license for individuals”, and the GPL license says I can remove those terms… without even getting really far into the mud here, I can download a copy of the software, strip those restrictions, and repost it under the GPL sans restrictions for anyone to use.

That all said… it will probably have most of the intended effect. Individuals won’t care about the license much (may limit outside contributors), but no company is going to touch this with a ten foot pole with a hacked up GPL on it, >100 employees or otherwise.

Yeah I was expecting a lot of that, which is why I found that survey data so surprising.
Good moderation is certainly a huge factor in keeping a large chat going. Hacker News is a pretty good example.

It does, but unfortunately not somewhere I can point at it yet. I'm working on it.
Doesn't make sense to require anything offline in the modern world. I'd argue the vast majority of group chats consists of people who have never met, likely live on entirely different continents, and yet have something in common (like they all played the same game together, or work in the same industry, or something like that) and roughly similar values.
Same reason as in real life over time everyone will be a renter.

We subsidize landlords and as a result they have effectively unlimited capital to throw at additional properties meaning the price perpetually goes up and they have more assets to loan against to buy more properties.

Then we allow them to take a depreciation value off their taxes on a asset that is appreciating in value.

It's truly insane.
I hope their capital incineration machine is discouraging to others.
>A large chunk of the restaurants I go to have extremely similar setups. Tons have Ziosk terminals at the table. Lots of others allow scanning a QR code and ordering at the table through a website/app. At least half the restaurants I frequent have some kind of digital ordering system.

What restaurants are these, Chipotle? I just visited the US for a few weeks and didn't see ANY of this.

>Some of these restaurants started implementing these systems over a decade ago.

I never saw it when I lived in the US, except for Panera.

>Either way, remote controlled single-room AC units have been a thing in the US for several decades.

No, they haven't. You're thinking of those shitty window units. They aren't the same; those are horrible. That's why the mini-split systems have gotten so popular, and they're all made in Asia (by companies like Daikin and Mitsubishi, rather than by the typical US brands like Westinghouse). So yes, apparently only Japan could have figured this out.

>but with the two separate units I'm able to run multiple loads through faster.

Sounds like you save up your laundry too much. Anyway, you can only do this if you're physically present to move the laundry between machines.

>They've been for sale in the US once again for decades

You're making the same mistake as with the A/C. No, they're brand-new, they haven't been available for decades. You're thinking of those shitty "over-under" units, with a dryer mounted on top of the washer. I'm talking about combo drum-style washer-dryer units with heat-pump drying: you put the clothes in, hit "start", and a few hours later your clothes are clean and dry.

>Everything I need to do can generally be done through NFC/Bluetooth on my phone these days.

> drastically reduce our overseas military presence

for what? a smaller deficit? it's unclear whether reducing the size of the defense industry helps the US economy, so maybe you get a smaller deficit but you also raise unemployment by a couple % and lower economic growth by a % or so over the next 25 years

conversely, it's pretty clear this does hurt its current hegemonic position. that's a gamble not many are willing to take so carelessly

Not enough production yet to target those cheap customers. Today most companies would like to utilize all their production to make most money ie the most expensive. As demand gets saturated and they start looking for new customers they will get there.
> C in BRICS is for China

Sure. What's good for America isn't necessarily good for NATO, the OECD or WTO. Similarly, BRICS is a stupider Belt & Road pitch.

I don't think your logic matches what was reported at all.

Your explanation implies the 'Hannibal Directive' is an attempt to rescue hostages by force.

What's described in the article appears to be orders to strike and all kill those in the vehicles that hostages are transported in.

The strategy described is the deliberate killing of hostages to prevent any need to bargain over hostages. It's a kill order in short.

One other point is that the article cites the 'Hannibal Directive' being applied to soldiers at one point, but then says it majorly happened for civilians. This feels like an important distinction.

A lot of arguments are hand wavy these days but neonics are nasty in my opinion.

I live in a UK county that is quite rural and there is a lot of farming here. It was also a testing ground for blasting badgers into the middle of next week 'cause bovine TB. Yay, go: Somerset (we also bring you the Glastonbury music festy and Chedder cheese and possibly "England" if you squint hard enough - that's a D Trump grade assertion!)

We can debate cause and effect but I suspect if I suggested you sniff a neonic, you might politely refuse on health grounds. They are not nice compounds and there is damn good evidence that neonics damage insects and may cause damage further up the food chain.

This conference should discuss all interested issues, regardless of sponsors. It didn't and you and I both know why not. There is no if or but.
Not every desire can be encoded into a legal and transactional text.

Laurence Lessig, Creative Commons founder in Code 2.0 (1999) identifies four elements that regulate behavior online: Laws, norms, markets, and technology

- *Code/architecture* – the physical or technical constraints on activities (e.g. locks on doors or firewalls on the Internet)

- *Market* – economic forces

- *Law* – explicit mandates that can be enforced by the government

- *Norms* – social conventions that one often feels compelled to follow

So even if you sell something, you can still complain about it. Unless of course they explicitly signed a “I won’t complain about this” clause.

I think the reason the commenter was pointing out that Wu won’t be getting paid is that the average person might not know that. And the people making money not the situation aren’t exactly incentivized to raise awareness.
The first generation devkit PS3s cost something outrageous like 10000 dollars and were the size of large pizza boxes IIRC (shrunk from three pizza boxes stacked on top of each other - eventually they shrunk the devkit down) and has some pretty stringent requirements to acquire. On the team I worked on only the graphics developer got a PS3 devkit, the rest of us lowly programmers got PS3 test kits, that allowed us to deploy/debug but without the same level of support tools, I think it was the same situation with the XBox 360 but the Microsoft developer tools were excellent even with just the test kits. I vaguely remember the cost of the test kits being double or triple the retail price of a regular console, and we had to warranty my test xbox 360s quite regularly since they would red circle of death.
There is an alternative, which doesn’t seem to be common, but isn’t novel: some variant of “rent to own”.

If you really squint, a mortgage is a monthly rent to a bank-owned property. Obviously that’s not what’s happening legally but that’s basically the “UX” of a mortgage. So why have rentals without ownership at all, instead of 0%-down mortgages.

Obviously credit-worthiness seems like an issue at first but everyone needs to pay their bills whether it’s to a bank or to a landlord. Our legal system already has plenty of methods to recoup unpaid debts. When it’s to a mortgage, the bank also has the entire equity of the paid off loan to potentially draw down before eviction/foreclosure is necessary. This could be a huge lifeline for people who have a random financial emergency mid-life to avoid eviction.

In this hypothetical world of no landlords, I could also see a specific provision of renting just for roommates to simplify this too because a rotating cast of roommates would make equity balancing a nightmare.
That's an option for a potential 2x boost, which I suppose could be good enough in certain contexts, but that's it. In particular, if you have a parser system able to utilize SIMD for all parsing, that'll get arbitrary parallelizability for "free" (at the cost of some log(n) increase in total operations across all threads).
Stability can also be a problem. If you own a home, only eminent domain can take it from you. If you've got a mortgaged home, only eminent domain and the bank can take it from you. If you're renting your home, your landlord can just say "nope, you don't get to live here any more, here's your 6 months' notice" (or whatever), and then you don't have your home any more.
Maybe you're joking, but Louisiana is an English-speaking area. There's only a small part of the state where they commonly speak Cajun French.
10x less is a weird way of saying 90% less, or better yet reduced to 10% from before.
> the term petrodollar makes it seem it's all about the oil. The oil is important, but the most important part of it is the guarantee that the casino chips the USA issues can (and in fact have) to be used to buy things around the world

This isn't the petrodollar. It's the post-Bretton Woods international order. (And a reflection of the depth and openness of the American financial system.)

Petrodollar refers to a specific aspect of that arrangement in which America mandated certain oil exporters only trade their oil for dollars and then reïnvest those dollars into U.S. Treasuries in exchange for military and political support. That's done.
It's a good start, but a grander vision would be to reduce or eliminate the need for cars altogether. You can build and sustain a mighty civilization without automobiles at all.

Can someone explain to me why corporate management seems unable to grasp the concept of properly paying and providing benefits for their employees to increase retention and have more successful hiring?

It's not just consumerism. It's selfism, of which consumerism is a subspecies.
As I wrote nine (9!) years ago on this site:

Advertising is our C8. It pollutes nearly every corner of the web with deception and manipulation. It is the cause of the cancer called click-bait. It is so profitable it has given rise to factories that pump out cheap junk "content", overwhelming anything of merit on the web[1][2]. Then, to extract even more from the devil in this Faustian bargain, we invade our very customer's privacy, selling our soul twice over.

Most of us avert our eyes from this moral abdication because it funds our high salaries and our get-rich-quick startup schemes[3]. Everyone seems happy with their "free" non-stick pans and waterproof boots, so why spoil the party?

It is difficult to get a man to understand
something when his salary depends upon his
not understanding it.”

- Upton Sinclair

[1] Most people will miss this article about C8 because it doesn't stand a chance against all the ad-supported garbage. The Intercept doesn't do click-bait. Journalism, a cornerstone of democracy, is dying. This toxin analogy is sadly too accurate.

I think it is reasonable for them to decide what software is available officially, in order to check for compatibility, quality, etc. However, users should be allow to load software that has not been approved and to write their own software too; and the software provided officially should not be required (if it is documented, you can write your own; if it is FOSS, then you can modify it and provide modified versions of the software). This does not excuse unfair business practices though, but it does ensure that users can easily override it if they do not like some of their business practices. The number of devices is not relevant. Even on many Linux systems there is a package manager, although you can also write your own software instead of using that in the package manager if you wish, and that should also be working with Apple, etc, just as well.
Thanks for your notes! I've only worked with solid state lasers that are pretty efficient and would have figured 10% aught to be possible for a CPA from wallplug to multi-terrawatt beam. I'm not sure how losses would go in the chirp pulse amplifier, plasma or FEL stages though.

I think we could afford a 10^-6 wall power to EUV beam loss and still be economical probably not 10^-8... my rough estimate is that for your 100W EUV beam equivalent to what ASML provides you can afford to burn on the order of 100MW for four years and still use less dollars to pay for that power than the capital expenditure for your ASML EUV system.
I just thought it was funny your example was my experience. But I also don't think it applies that much to tech workers, they dont need to learn swedish at all. Certainly not easy but not insurmountable as you say.

Jackpot. I'm literally building this formula language in a new spreadsheet app (it's early days but I'm eager to share it on HN when the MVP is ready!) and am writing a paper on dataframes vs. spreadsheets, so reading this has warmed my heart on this rainy afternoon

The force feedback in the triggers was indeed new, but the "haptics" (I think it's basically a low frequency loudspeaker) were already present in the Switch controllers, and before that in iPhones under the name "Taptic engine". Unfortunately the Xbox controller still lacks these "haptics", as well as gyroscope and accelerometer, any force feedback etc.
Still ridiculously overpriced.

I mean there are several reasons why this is not argument for communism:

1. Here communism means handling it all yourself and capitalism means leaving some part of the economy to AI. It's immediately obvious why one will prevail since we dont have AGI yet. Also the game provides million times more information than Project Cybersyn ever hoped it'd have.

2. The dev have been accused to be very biased for communism. For the first few patches they don't even allow capitalists to set up their own investment ffs, only able to invest money to "investment pool" that will be used by government (player). Apart from design choices, they are also ones responsible for AI. They can set up landlords to be super selfish and revolutionaries to be super selfless and vice versa.

3. One of the most notable thing is that in the previous game, Victoria 2, it's not this lopsided. Even when that game is as robust of a simulation or even more so.

I said this on the original thread. You don't need to search the whole space. A greedy solution is fine.

Considering a simple score that utilizes the odds of you getting it vs. your opponent, the paths to or immediate victories/losses opened up is nearly guaranteed to give you the optimal strategy every time.

If a slot has negative odds, meaning it's more likely to help your opponent, you should NEVER play that slot unless you have no dissimilar options.

Many slots, based on position, assume a value of 0 and should be avoided while there's positively valued options available.

If a slot has a > 50% chance of handing you the win, you should always play it. (you could argue the model proves this rigidly at the 57% level)

I mean, regardless of the Bibkey naming, it'll be the same content in the bibliography/citations section/appendix

Personally I hate autoincrementing numeric bibkeys for the same reason I hate them everywhere -- if you remove, reorder, or combine citations, it's a huge pita to work around.

I get if you're working in latex or something you can have the bibkeys programmatically generated, but still.

So long as the bibkey is unique and has an associated value, ill always prefer something semantically meaningful in the text.

I mean, when I see a citation, I'll read the citations regardless (if it's for work etc, casually at home I'll only read it if it seems interesting or if I'm dubious). The only way I could see it being an issue is if I've already seen the citations before and somehow I'm misremembering it or ignoring some context/nuance and I decide to be lazy and not refresh the cache, but at that point it's definitely a me problem and I don't think going to the citations and looking at the source title or excerpt there will be any better.
