GitHub has always said that they only train on public repos. I don’t see why they’d lie about that - including private repos would only add a relatively small amount of data to the corpus and would risk alienating all their corporate custom

Why do you feel that the Google vs Authors Guild ruling cited in the article isn’t relevant?

Sure, but the Google Books case is a massive and well-funded court case that was a pretty resounding victory for Google and textual analysis of copyrighted works in general, so anybody arguing that this is obviously copyright violation need

The article cites the Google vs Authors Guild case ( https://www.techdirt.com/2013/11/14/google-gets-total-victor... ) which was a total victory for Google. This seems fairly conclusive that the textual analysi

AliExpress reviews seem to say 12h or so with all the power saving features turned on. Without the power-saving... An ESP32 draws 90-240ma when active, and I'm sure the battery capacity is significantly overstated, so if you just flash

As reviewers are paid nothing and get no substantial credit for their work, I’m going to say “Every field”. Why would you do a significant chunk of a paper’s work for no reward? Replication studies are typically a bad deal even when you get

Cookie banners are only a very small part of the GDPR.

by 542458 3y ago
The amount of inaction you’d need to be guaranteed to comply with the GDPR would be equivalent to never starting a business at all. Even a cash-only business with no electronics anywhere would still need nontrivial GDPR compliance efforts

File timestamp is a hard one, I’m not really sure what the “correct” way to implement that is while preserving privacy. Maybe hiding timestamps on files not owned by that app? But free space (if being used for caching purposes): Why not jus

I would argue that apps should almost never need access to some of those, like boot time (why?), free space (not meaningful in the era of dynamic offloading to iCloud), and active keyboard (just accept whatever input you’re given). With the

True, but they use less bricks than a straight wall of the same strength, because the straight wall would have to be thicker or have buttresses. So it depends what you’re doing - does the wall have to withstand that kind of loads or not?

No, what I'm saying is that posts on HN a decade-plus ago were always very optimistic about Tesla and SpaceX. It's not like everybody here was hating on him and he suddenly succeeded, people (at least on here) always saw the benef

Search is pretty terrible, which is a big flaw when you’re trying to dig up old info. Splitting chats with people and chats with teams into separate UIs just makes it hard to keep on top of things. Image uploads and embeds work very inconsi
