You're 100% and raise a good point.It would only work with digital goods though. At some point people seriously have to realise copyright is just a tool with pro's and con's, a balancing act between differing interests. I agr

Legally if they sell it, they no longer own it and can't determine how it is used. If they license it, that's a different story (they can make a claim of how I breached terms of use, still no copyright issue though). They have abs

Only the reproduction is judged whether or not it is too close to the original or not (the physical reproduced item, not the reproduction process or concept). Nothing else is subject to copyright. Copyright protection does not extend to ide

Most countries are not self-sufficient and do export/import and many countries are not able to issue debt in their own currencies.

Perhaps my statement is an exaggeration but it is a secondary concern. An asset doesn't mean much if isn't productive in some way.

Don't know why you're being down voted, it's widely accepted that it only really works for currencies that are reserve currency status. It could also work if you were entirely self-sufficient with no exports/imports. All

Your asset base is in truth meaningless (and often very inflated). The true measure is your ability to pay this debt and in order to pay this debt you need to generate revenue, at a country scale this revenue is GDP. A bank's first thi

I assume you're referring to copyright. It could be argued copyright is a tragedy of the commons, the individual benefits at the expense of everyone else. Obviously it is intended that the wider impact of incentivising innovation will

I live in Europe. Out of an office of 9, only 2 want to go back. One person is in sales and I assume is very extroverted, the 2nd is an old man, who likes the whole "dress up, get to the office early, I'm a serious businessman&quo

Nobody is stopping you from having those interactions remotely. Encourage a culture whereby those people call you about these things, one where calls are not formal. Set up scenarios where they literally just sit on remote video call with y

As part of the social contract, reasonable employees would agree with it if there were a solid case for it but this doesn't seem to be so. They're being offered ambiguous one liners such as the "making forward business progre

Times change and so should companies. It's also not unreasonable for people to expect more from their job than a simple transaction. Before COVID, most places operated without tools such as Microsoft Teams and an assumption that remote

I once tapped on a podcast link that someone sent me that opened in Spotify. I was haunted by podcast recommendations for months, if not years afterwards. I honestly wouldn't care if there was a completely separate tab in the app that

Would this be a breach of GDPR for us EU residents? I'm getting seriously disillusioned with all this surveillance stuff. At first I thought, you know, these were isolated incidents falling through the cracks, but in truth it's be

The author is grasping at straws. I don't think it'll be a particular problem. The original dataset, yes, would be subject to GDPR and the onus is on OpenAI to follow GDPR and delete any confidential information for which they do

And in the bigger scheme of things it's still a charade. These devs I'm sure are extremely talented, double your headcount and pay them half, everyone will still be smiling all the way to the bank. It's unfortunately nothing
