My understanding is that the law ultimately cares about the market impact on the copyright holder, and balancing that with the interests of the public. I don't think the courts will be swayed by arguments based on technicalities like t

I'd imagine most folks are concerned with the other way that discretion cuts--it also allows tenuous interpretations that are not in the spirit of the law or are based on controversial interpretations, judicial activism, etc. As a lay

I do something similar, because I can. Why waste time organizing & pruning them when I don't need to? I can just search for open tabs that I need, jump to windows to resume sessions I was working on earlier, etc. At some point it g

I'm struggling to find where these authors are treating LLMs and transformers like they're the solution to everything, or where they are just following hype around? These are long-time AI researchers at Berkeley who've develo

I'm not trying to make any sort of statement about RTO in general. I'm sure there are at least some companies who are using RTO mandates as a "constructive dismissal" tactic, I'm curious how widespread that is. If

They can be towed, but it is correct that certain electrical failures can prevent the brakes from being released. I know because this happened to me. The tow company sent a flat bed truck and used a winch to pull the car onto the platform.

Saying no to generics sends a strong signal to FP astronauts to "take it somewhere else". This saying no to a huge number of things is the superpower of Go and its community IMO, but those "go away" signals are getting
