So that's what I assumed too but it turns out that's not true, at least in Canada. The Flight Stop example was cited as an example of an artist asserting their moral rights to their art to prevent the owner from tying bows around

If editing an article opens you up to copyright lawsuits for "destroying their work", it's completely untenable.

That's pretty crazy, seems like a ticking time bomb to me. I assume the precise meaning of "moral rights" varies by jurisdiction, but if from the integrity part of the Canadian definition started being broadly applied it woul

A "marketplace of ideas" wikipedia is not wikipedia, that's twitter or maybe reddit. More importantly, your theory of copyright being unwaivable without an employee-employer relationship makes the entire internet unworkable.

It's funny you say that because you can absolutely value 13 black after it's been bet on. It's actually really easy, I would expect a middle schooler to be able to do so and intuitive understand the concept.

What a great excuse for stagnant wages.

I don't think it comes from the union, Wikimedia has always gone out of it's way to conflate the people who are creating, editing, and maintaining website Wikipedia and the leeches who captured that effort.

How is the right non-divestable if you can waive it? More importantly, how could wikipedia possibly work if contributors retained copyright in any form over their submitted articles and edits?

Have you ever read the ToS/ToU of any social media site? Did you know that by using this site you've agreed to arbitration? https://www.ycombinator.com/legal/#tou Giving up copyright when you write an article

The books are not banned. Students are allowed to possess the books. Students are allowed to read the books.

Fun fact, this is almost exactly how active portal detection is done in the OS/browser! https://gist.github.com/skull-squadron/edb8c0122f902013304c0...

nc is basically just a nicer interface for the same thing, in the same way that curl is. https://linux.die.net/man/1/nc

Sorry to tell you this but you've been lied to about these books being banned, as in they are not being banned, they are still allowed.

If by "singular patron" you mean the administration of the school then I guess so.

by some_random 3mo ago
Because they're not "not allowed". With very few exceptions the thing people are freaking out about is books being curated out of libraries, usually for very understandable reasons.

by some_random 3mo ago
But the problem is that with very few exception, it's not serious at all. Public libraries already make curation choices with politics in mind, school libraries already make curation choices with content moderation in mind, etc. In ord

True, but people are more willing to spend that kind of money $20-50 at a time than all at once.

Does the AVP actually compete with it? I thought it didn't do games?
51.
by some_random 3mo ago
Does the AVP still not integrate with VR games/simulators? I understand why Apple wants it to be a productivity tool not a gaming device, but it really sucks to restrict it in that way.

I don't think that's true, 3.5k for a porn machine is an incredibly steep price.

It's funny you say this because, at least from what I've seen, groups that are historically discriminated against seem to be receiving more latitude in skirting the law.

Are you kidding me? You are not being "press ganged", when you try to play music the music player shipped with the OS is opened.

The age of people all across the world being able to just connect to each other other the internet is coming to an end. I wish the internet was still a business backend and hobbyist playground but I'm not sure it ever was just that.

Star Trek isn't real life, when human labor stops being valuable the humans who's labor was previously vital will be at best left to rot in squalor.

I'm not sure if I'd call it culture wide, but a significant number of non-tech people in my life were not just aware of it but actively considering "investing".

Something worth noting is that the types of vulnerabilities LLMs introduce are notably different from what humans introduce, way fewer local issues like syntax mistakes, simple memory problems, etc and far more broad issues like authn/

I don't know who is telling you this, but the people who gave me that line lived through several recessions including '08 and are still making money buying rental properties to this day. They know more about the present situation
