That's ethical egoism, not rationalism. Considering the second- and third-order effects of one's own decisions is obligatory in civilized society.

Pairing this move with the belt-tightening is mutually-supporting fires.

Yeah it's cultural, exactly. But also, if you're making hardware for example, you can't just go back and 'update' the molds, the assembly line, change the material composition, etc. The lead times are insane, the ch

I'm sorry... what? The waterfall method is EVERYWHERE, entrenched, systematic, and pervasive. Even when you're supposedly doing Agile, there's always half the team still thinking in waterfall. In any non-digitally-native comp

Great UX should aesthetic and functional. It's never a choice between the two, especially these days.

I hope this works out for this guy, because these days I have zero faith that W. European governments are run by sane, commonsense people.

Yes. This is the consolidation/monopoly attack vector that makes OpenAI anything but. They're the MSFT of the AI era. The only difference is, these tools are highly asymmetrical and opaque, and have to do with the veracity and val

No, I think they're the same. Probably they feel different to you, depending on who you're stealing from, but ripping a DVD and putting it up on the internet during the theatrical window can really hurt filmmakers – who already ma

This is cool. Idea: Amazon has killed 'random' browsing of books. Would love to see this applied to topic area searches etc. so I can have the same serendipity that I used to get in all the bookstores Amazon unalived.

No, it's property theft.

If you can't afford the software/music/art/film/book, then you don't buy it. Digitization doesn't somehow transform my limited time and resources into something you're suddenly entitled to.

I would use the term property theft, because I would have the exact same reaction to someone stealing my wages, my stuff, or my time.

> Price is a barrier to entry for many users who wouldn't have paid for the software. This is what demos, student licenses, etc. are for. I don't care what your justification is, property theft is wrong.

Which tip/configuration is appropriate for the RM2? Having trouble finding that information on the Lamy site!

Underrated comment. His point was to see how they approached the problem regardless of the answer, which is a much different criteria than having the right answer.

Commercial artist, maybe. Real artists, nah. I'm aware the difference between those two things is mucky, but 'real' art is exclusively a human-to-human communication. You can use AI to augment your work for sure, but even the

The difference is in the intangibles. Real art – differentiated from commercial art – is an inherently human-to-human communication medium.

Better how? Art isn't measured in touchdowns.
