I don't get it. Your purpose is to learn, why should someone else doing whatever they want be an impediment? You aren't racing to the market, you aren't pursuing the same objective. If your motivation is the learning process,

Why not implement unix sockets too, since we want to avoid the ip/tcp stack? Now you have two platforms to support for no real gain. Also, LSP applications are shared between projects/users, how you centralize that if each system

People still can install/run whatever they like on their PCs, so why further restrictions needed or am I missing something? Also, further restrictions doesn't seem to work on the mobile/TV market where actual malware still in

I read several years back that most of the time when an accident happens the copilot knew something wrong was happening but wasn't willing to override the cap. This is a cultural change rather than procedure.

What if you keep the protections that actually benefit you, but doesn't restrict your clients? ie. if you keep the exclusive combined right to distribute reproduced works, but not to distribute (you already sold a copy) or reproduce (a

You don't need to abolish copyright, you just have to limit the scope to the economic mechanism that actually matter for authors: reproduction and distribution of the reproduced works. Removing all of copyright except that combined rig

It wouldn't have mattered how long copyright is if it wasn't expanded beyond the immediate economic desincentives that it is supposed to address for the most insidious problems it causes. It should be been limited exclusively to t

I wanted something like this for a org, but I wanted it to be integrated with the OS/file browser. Windows 7 had some tagging, which is the flat structure you need for that, but never got the buy in from management to use it (they pref

Just look at anything that require certification and prohibit modification, PCI endpoints, FIPS, fuel pumps, aviation, medical software, gambling machines... most of those are outlawed because the law made it prohibitively expensive or cumb

I am baffled that the number of comments trying to work around a problem that shouldn't exists is above zero. No, this crap shouldn't happen. It's an appalling situation that it is happening at all.

Why does your "better solution" shift responsibility from the people who built the unsafe environment to the parents? A platform labeling itself 18+ doesn't make it safe, it just moves the blame. Adult content isn't wher
