Not a lawyer, but that’s how I understand it. In the Citizens United case the Supreme Court has given corporations free speech rights. Included in that right is the right to state an opinion. And when you develop an algorithm that promotes

Good. If you write software that people rely on with their lives, and it fails, you should be held liable for that criminally.

Yeah any automaker doing this would just negotiate a flat rate per car in the US and the insurer would average the danger to make a rate. This would be much cheaper than the average individual’s cost for liability on their insurance.

One thing I don’t see covered here is that awnings have never seemed helpful to me in a humid climate. In Florida you can stand in the shade or the sun and barely feel a temperature variation (if at all). In the summer it may only get a few

Depends on latitude. In Florida which is subtropical everyone has air conditioning. The UK only spans 10 degrees of latitude. The continental US spans almost 25. So the variability of climate here is HUGE.

Because packages shouldn't be upgraded in a project until they have been tested. If you give me no way of downloading version 1.0 of a package in my project because 1.1 supersedes it and 1.1 breaks my project, what am I supposed to do?

Correct, especially because heat + lithium battery = bad idea.

Yeah if you're leaning towards someone playing older rule sets or OSR, you're definitely going to find it to be rare. I have never seen tables with that overlap (very in-person roleplay heavy + older style rulesets) personally.

Not really. It's the most VISIBLE playing style, because it make for an entertaining live play, so naturally that's what the videos on YouTube lean towards. But at an everyday table, it's generally not expected. Some players

I rarely ever reread stuff. My memory’s not perfect but it’s good enough that rereading something feels like having a guy sitting behind me at a movie yelling out what’s about to happen. It ends up being a not very enjoyable experience for

That’s why all of this sort of software should be open standards and user updatable. The company goes under? Install an open source alternative.

Here's the difference though: you can't copyright facts. The facts were there before anyone discovered them. If I describe something that is objectively true for the first time, it was simply there and I noticed it. I expect anyon

What other laws do you think we should ignore so that we can ensure we continue to be dominant in this or other fields?

I'd like to frame this another way. OpenAI is saying they can't survive without copyright owners consenting to use their property to make OpenAI money. And honestly, if your business model is dependent on that, then that's yo

One thing I’m not seeing here is what effects the decriminalization had that caused them to reverse course.

It isn’t the problem of having only 99% free speech. It’s getting people to agree to which 99%.

Honestly surprised weather is so low. I’ve seen a few that seem shady and they don’t even have to make up a lame excuse as to why they need location.

I don’t know if it was just chance, but nearly every question’s correct answer was the first option. So I’d shuffle the order of the answers around if you’re not already.
