If he's the "creator" of record, then he can give away characters, setting, plots &c. The words and concepts, as you suggest. So derivative works based on the concepts would be kosher, photocopies of the existing books wo

It really isn't. As long as you can watch YouTube and maintain the confidence to ruin some material while you're learning, it isn't difficult to pick up. And once I tell that to whichever zoomers or younger person I'm ta

Thank you for saying it. Bed bugs can go literally three years without eating. Using the mixed-toxin (different bedbug poison for each treatment, minimum 2 treatments) approach usually works, but the only way to definitely kill existing b

Lots of examples. 'Thorsons Introductory Guide to Medical Herbalism' is, for example, both required reading for many modern medical degrees and a collection of hundreds (of documented; more realistically, thousands) of years of th

I'm in complete agreement with you. At this point, I also endorse threats of flogging for someone who tries to introduce a new framework to a project after the actual work has started. And actual flogging for the management team if t

I can't tell you how many snappy, easy-to-use React sites I've used (I was busy using them, not reviewing their code), but every single time I've said "What the hell is going on, I'm just trying to [simple operati

So you're not great at the whole reading-comprehension, are you? From, as they say, TFA >For now, I want a fast, accurate, and stable version for RedHat-based Linux distributions. Currently these are CentOS 7, CentOS Stream and Fe

Agreed. All my vet friends get pretty worked up about this topic, particularly the lack of oversight. Even if you're in an active war zone, if you raise your weapon (even if the person you're aiming at is holding a weapon), it g

Why would it increase the motor size significantly? Even low voltage electric motors have insane torque compared to fossil fuel engines.

Bingo. A left handed person is sinistrous, a right handed person is dexterous. An interesting place this is preserved is in heraldry[0], and I've also heard it used in cards (a King, in red, facing the dexter). [0] https://e
