That means most people can't use this keyboard to write a work email or text message. That's a really restrictive license, and pretty unexpected for a keyboard, to limit what you're allowed to type. Pointing it out doesn't seem harsh.

Interpreting charitably: someone who had what was at the time a death sentence of an infectious disease and (if allegations are true) sexual relations with people who could not legally consent ... might suggest a certain amorality or immorality.

This will sound like I’m being needlessly perverse, but: no.

Intent is what matters. Quite clearly, the word you mention can be used in a variety of ways for a variety of reasons — not all of them racist.

Conversely, you can be the most awful racist without ever saying an offensive word. And there are plenty of those sorts of people too.

However, as for the specific example you mention: I know Americans tend to feel very strongly about that word and I understand that. But to most other English speakers, whilst it’s a horrible word, its mere usage isn’t itself always considered a terrible crime. In fact, it commonly occurs in literature studied in schools — and yes, the teachers and students will in that case have licence to use (or read aloud, if you like) the word.

While the intent of copyright is unknown, when it's unstated it can be changed later. The legal solution to this is licenses.

A common curiosity to unstated intent is attribution. This is missing (and not currently possible) with many AI models today.

The Internet is not detached from the rest of the world. Something with a license can appear there (with or without the holders knowledge)

Note: Not intending to contradict you but elaborate on that last point as assuming intent is dangerous.

> If you are processing a kg of air, you'd be getting only a fraction of a gram of CO2. So if you want to produce say a ton of fuel, you are looking at processing many millions of tons of air.

If this could be within piping distance of lime kilns, the concentrated CO2 emitted in cement production could be used. Both processes need a bunch of heat so maybe they could get that from the same solar collectors.

None of the people that impressed me in my career were actively trying to do so.

They were simply professional and productive, which distinguished from the average colleague I had.

None of them was doing much extra, but during their 8/5 they moved projects ahead consistently and were reliable.

I can't stress how even such basic things are imho rare so obviously every time there were positions open in companies I've worked for I tried to get them in.

Even among those good performers there's still another selection in my eyes, when it comes to soft skills and how they handle stress or managers. A bit of political skills are always handy to have.

I don't consider myself personally above the but I know those people are courted, and not just by me but many other former colleagues.

It seems quite often when Russia loses a war they then change their system. See Japan/WW1 and the communist takeover, Afghanistan and the collapse of the USSR. Quite possibly if Russia loses in Ukraine as in gets sent home then something similar will happen.

There's an odd situation where the US seems to be drip feeding aid to Ukraine so as to prevent it from winning as they are worried about the Putin government collapsing leading to chaos. Personally I'd rather like to see that government collapse. (good video on that https://youtu.be/CxZ402BMSs8)

> Well, if the privatized version doesn't [risk loss because of] the point of a gun

Except it does. A soldier with a gun in your face can take your insurance payout just as easily as they can take your bank balance.

With respect to a kleptocracy, neither option protects you.

> take my money away from me

Ah, this is the place where you've confused an apple for an orange: The premiums collected for "destitute in a ditch" insurance is not "your money", because that's not how insurance works.

Similarly if you buy "house burns down" insurance and your house is fine until the day you sell it, then you get zero dollars back from the insurance company and nobody blinks an eye. Your payout is potential, conditional, and generally non-transferable, and that's normal, because an insurance policy is not an investment account.

There was never a discrete "your money" pile sitting around in the insurance-company vault waiting for you to reclaim it. (Well, aside from in the minds of criminals plotting insurance fraud.)

For web URLs, browsers will sometimes display "punycode" where for example "домен" would be represented as "xn--d1abbgf6aiiy"

I believe different browsers have different heuristics about when to switch to that representation - suspicious characters, mixing scripts in the same URL, and so on.

Show me a recipe that uses cups for volumetric measurements and also has any mass measurements. They're rare.

Cups makes it either very old or very American, and from what I've seen American recipes tend not to measure anything by mass. (Even butter is measured by the 'sticks' that it's sold in there. They're obviously some standard weight, but if you're not American (and so did not buy your butter in a stick) you'll have to try to look that up.) And in a vicious circle, as I understand it most American home kitchens don't have scales?

Personally I think cups (or call it anything, doesn't matter) are nice when absolutely everything is going to be described in a volumetric ratio. That works nicely, it's easy to scale, and it doesn't matter at all what a 'cup' is, everything's just relative to everything else. But even then, especially with wet & dry ingredients, you probably want multiple 'cups' of the same size, it's not completely convenient.
A member of LIGO might be too close to tell what is the first gen.

As a person without any connection to the field I see a paper making a distinction between the first generation of interferometric detectors and those using other means [0]. Likewise a couple of expanded papers from the ScienceDirect page on Gravitational Wave Detectors also cite non interferometric types as early work [1]:

The earliest manmade gravitational wave detectors were based on a simple gedanken experiment: if two masses on a spring are momentarily stretched apart and then compressed by a gravitational wave, potential energy is imparted to the spring, independent of how coordinates are defined. from K. Riles, in Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics, 2013.

> That doesn't mean that he actually crosses it from our reference frame.

This specifically is an incorrect understanding. All events happen in all reference frames. There are no situations where an event that happens in one reference frame fails to happen in another. At worst (or best, depending on how you view it) we can disagree about the _order_ of events, but not which events actually happened.

A big problem is Real Estate Investment Trusts. They buy up properties, shorten leases, and raise rents. They borrow money against future rents so they rather a space stay vacant than lower a single rent. If they lower a rent it signals that they are borrowing against an inflated asset, which would cause a domino effect on their loans. REITs are considered stable investments, so everyone's mutual funds and pensions are full of this stuff.

As a small business owner, I'm very lucky to have mostly decent landlords, but I worry for the day that they sell out to REITs. Our business won't survive that.

@dang is it possible to apply a filter to block out all conversations that are debates about whether or not something is an open source whatever? There is only a narrow set of situations where this is done in good faith for curiosity, and maybe this is sort of one of them, but I also don’t really care about weird licenses being nerd sniping marketing schemes either. This isn’t Reddit so it’s understandable if no such rule exists, but you exclude non technical political stuff which is good, so maybe this is a good line to draw.
People are now constantly confusing what is morally questionable with what is illegal.

That is a sad move because I quite like a lot what perplexity is offering, especially freely without using a connected account.
I'd tell them I am not shutting up and this is a major problem affecting the quality of the product. I would then speak to the boss's boss about it and start complaining about the boss doing a poor job, encouraging fake, meaningless metrics to game the system. Maybe they'll get get fed up and tell you to GTFO. Probably not though. The thing about broken organizations is that they take forever to fire anyone, so use that to your advantage while you look for other jobs.
Was the nut cashew?
There are exceptions. One of my favorite live music venues - and a very popular local one - was basically driven out by their landlord: at the start of COVID, when we had actual lockdowns, they literally doubled the rent, knowing this - and mostly because they wanted that revenue themselves - they got absolutely pilloried when they re-opened (without their tenant), and used all the publicity and photos and name from the tenant's business to say "come here and enjoy our great live music", basically freeloading off the tenant's work.

But I do also know plenty of small business owners who act like their business failing is anyone's fault but their own. I watched another business collapse and they were literally posting on Facebook, "It is sad to see that our dream with so much potential collapsed because the community wasn't willing to support it."

With the notable difference that there is no magic ingredient to Overleaf.

If you have all the files you can recreate the documents with a local latex installation. Overleaf makes this easy, since you can sync it with github repos.

Fundamentally that's the problem of allocating scarce resources. If they're not allocated to whoever pays the most, it would be some other way which still excludes people. Maybe it's to the people who promise to fight for the king, or the winners of a lottery but at the end of the day, those other ways aren't better because someone still misses out.

Is the publication of Overleaf as open source something new? Or is there some reason that the github page for Overleaf is interesting?

What about the things that are missed? Are you going to make an explicit rule for every bad thing?

I want to live in a world, li,e the one I mostly live in, where we cooperate and love one another.

I was aware of that when commenting, I was answering to this part of the original comment, that claimed an important nuance in this statement:

> "anyone can copy it, recreate with it, reproduce with it" are his words. Those "with"s are important!

So I was a very strong anti-DRM proposant when younger and I basically still am.

Information is inherently free, yes. And every creation that is understandable to others must be derivative of other works.

But no, I still think that existing copyright law does not cover AI slop generated from copyrighted content.

It covers "remixing" and fair use to a degree (or, more precisely, there is legislative precedence about many nuances of copyright).

But copyright law deals with humans.

It is not designed to cover automatically generated copycat "work" at scale.

Look at actual cases about derivative works and the line being drawn: no way this covers the situation with LLMs, it is not remotely practical to have a complicated court case for each piece of AI slop generated.

To the contrary, LLMs are ideal tools to obfuscate the actual source of any original piece if information.

Yes, the existing copyright of the next HBO series won't be affected.

But ad an indie author or musician, it could become even harder to achieve any kind of meaningful revenue.

I think this tends to degrade all domains of art to a pastime for people without any material needs.

Not that this is principally new, but the kind of automation that AI allows has the potential to ramp this up to eleven.
The simple answer is: “Because they can”

Moving for most small businesses comes with a heavy cost. If you’re in a high regulation area like California, even moving down the block would first of all require a ton of permitting and time. Second, foot traffic is not equal everywhere. Even if you move buildings in the same neighborhood, availability or lack of something as simple as parking, can affect your business significantly. Lastly, even if you figure everything out, moving comes with the costs of making the new place up to date to align with your business. For some businesses these costs can run into millions (big restaurants). In most cases, businesses will either pay the higher rent or simply shut down.
Knowing people in your industry well enough that they will contact you about an open position at their company. Normally that means they either like you enough to want to work with you or respect your abilities enough that they think you can help with the work they’re doing. How you meet them and get to know them is up to you.
To fuess some numbers for this, Cubase 6 was ~2011, so sales would start in 2013, 11 years is 132 months, at $400/month that's $52,800 total over the years, and that was for about a year of work.

So it paid something, but probably not as much as a 1 year full time job would have.

Congrats on this - It looks really good. We’ve been evaluating documentation tooling for our company. We’re in a weird regulatory environment where the documentation is created by someone else, but reviewed and approved by another person.

I bring this up because a feature that could set you apart from others is the concept of a “merge request” for documentation. Where someone can make a document, another can modify it and submit changes for review.

GitBook has this but it lacks in some other key ways for us.
