Yes, of course! In this case, the judge identified three separate instances of copying: (1) downloading books without authorisation to add to their internal library, (2) scanning legitimately purchased books to add to their internal library

Yes, that would by an interesting trial. But it is only about six books, and all claims regarding Claude have been dismissed already. So only the internal copies remain, and there the theory for them being infringing is somewhat convoluted:

The judge appears to disagree with you on this. They found that training and selling an LLM are fair use, based on the fact that it is exceedingly transformative, and that the copyright holders are not entitled to any profits thereof due to

Just downloading them is of course cheaper, but it is worth pointing out that, as the article states, they did also buy legitimate copies of millions of books. (This includes all the books involved in the lawsuit.) Based on the judgement it

Let us say that an index i is bad , if every finite subsequence of s starting at i is red (i.e. for every j ≥ i we have χ(s_i ... s_j) = red). Two cases: Case 1: there are infinitely many bad indices. Here we go to the first bad index then

The full decision can be found here [1]. The consumer protection agency did also seek that LinkedIn be forced to respect DNT, but the court did not grant this relief, reasoning that it was overly broad in two ways. First, it did not specify

The name of the city is “Garching bei München” which translates to “Garching near Munich”. This disambiguates it from „Garching an der Alz“. (Although Jülich is just called Jülich.)

I use these as well (3M Aura). They are much more comfortable than the more common types of FFP2 masks and I can wear them for prolonged periods of time without issue, but I would not classify them as “no discomfort whatsoever”. Also, they

You are thinking of the union, where you can indeed just put the two NFAs “side-by-side”. This does not work for the intersection though, there you need the product construction.

It is also important to consider that better performance also increases your productivity as a developer. For example, you can use simpler algorithms, skip caching, and have faster iteration times. (If your code takes 1min to hit a bug, the

I would guess that this can work, but it seems impossible to prove. I do not have any good candidates for an NP problem that is provably harder than SAT for a deterministic Turing machine, though I would not be surprised if some tricky diag

An easy argument why it cannot work: consider an array with 3 elements, [a,b,c]. “Shuffling” it could look as follows. Step 1. Swap a, c -> [c,b,a] Step 2. Swap b, c -> [b,c,a] Step 3. Swap a, a -> [b,c,a] What is

I you feel that the actor is an important part of the sentence, you can include it in passive voice as well: “However, it was attacked at Pearl Harbor by Japan, and then chose to enter the war.”

I would disagree. This sentence is about the Unites States, not Japan, and the use of passive voice reflects that.
