Correct. It's not practical because those apps usually aren't Free Software and because the hardware or firmware they're running on often aren't Free and include anti-features that prevent you from installing Free altern

Worst-case, they could hire someone they trust to review the source code. More realistically, you generally don't have to switch to a fork in the first place because the mere threat of a fork is enough to prevent the deployment of user

Yes, because we largely don't have Free Software. > If there is a free software license, it’s of no direct use to them. It's of indirect use; they could use a modified version of the software that does what they want, created b

Without reproducible builds, this just means you have to trust the packager instead of the developer. Sometimes that's a good trade-off, but you still haven't really solved the problem, just moved it. With reproducible builds, you

I'm assuming you meant FAA. Last I checked, Starship isn't edible. ;)

For most LLMs, with most works, no. If you trained an LLM repeatedly on nothing but the text of LOTR until it could re-produce the books verbatim and then tried to sell copies of that LLM, then I agree that would be blatent copyright infrin

The difference being... what? Just scale? To be clear, Meta didn't "[resell] the laundered data": or at least they're claiming there's no proof of seeding.

So your position is that it is illegal for me to watch a movie on Netflix that they don't have the rights to? Just that I wouldn't be prosecuted because I didn't intend to break the law? Unless perhaps I knew they didn&#x

An original composition based on a statistical analysis of the training data. Statistical data about a copyrighted work obviously isn't necessarily a derivative of that work. Otherwise Tolkien could sue me for telling you how many time

The pagers actually were designed to be explosive devices. I'm guessing you didn't dig into the details of that story and just saw the headlines?

The "size" of a black hold is directly proportional to its mass. Specifically: Mass * 2 * The Gravitational Constant / The Speed of Light Squared: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwarzschild_radius Note

Yes. And a 10^17g black hole would have a radius of 1.485×10^-13 meters[1], 50 million times smaller than a red blood cell[2]. [1]: https://www.wolframalpha.com/input?i=schwarzschild+radius+ca... [2]: https://www

Yeah, the fact that you need an exploit just to get full access to your own property is pretty ridiculous.

Is this the same Privacy Pass that Cloudflare was using to allow clients to bypass CAPTCHAs? If so, this is a really neat application of that system; it never occurred to me that it could be used to anonymously authenticate to a paid servic

I feel like it used to be better. But in this case this isn't even a political topic; a bunch of people just decided to bring up politics anyway.

by Ajedi32 2y ago
But in that case that's already what the comment you were replying to was saying: that higher density results in higher costs. So I guess I'm confused about what your point is. Were you just trying to say you agree?

San Fransisco housing is cheaper than rural Oklahoma? Source, please. San Francisco is notorious for being an extremely expensive place to live. In my experience, housing outside cities (suburbs or rural areas) is usually much, much cheap

Agreed. I think it might be prudent to just start downvoting comments about Elon Musk's politics on threads that are just about his companies and have no direct connection to him personally.

So the use of AI actually has nothing to do with the ruling here? This is just about the fact that Ross made one local copy of the notes and never distributed it?

The interview with Noland at 6:48:59 was particularly interesting to me. Lots of details about what Neuralink is actually like to use in practice.

Interestingly, almost the entirety of the judge's opinion seems to be focused on the question of whether the translated notes are subject to copyright. It seems to completely ignore the question of whether training an AI on copyrighted

They're as real as any other aspect of human nature. There are no "artificial rules", just humans acting according to normal human behavior. Ignore that at your peril.

That's one issue with a two party system: it incentivizes collusion between branches that are supposed to be holding each other in check.

Yes, and that's precisely the root of the problem here. If you want government that's responsive to the will of the people, then it has to be either directly elected by the people, or accountable to someone elected by the people.

What does that have to do with signing arbitrary files?
