It’s not really in either Meta or Google’s interests to share that data. What they do is to build super detailed profiles of you and what you’re likely to click on, so they can charge more money for ad impressions.

Wonder if there will be similarities emerging between this and the previous one where a valid flight plan caused the system to throw in the towel because it didn’t like it?

I don’t think I’ll find a perfect example I’m afraid, just the key principles that underpinned other judgements. With regards to the documentary example, I think that would come under “fair use” for the following reasons: 1. Transformative

In and of itself own, as quoted by OP, it’s not meaningful. Sibling comment is thoughtful and helpful but adds information not present in OP’s statement (base rate). Edit: ah, you are OP. Just swap “OP” for “you” :)

It’s difficult to give any accurate interpretation of, because it’s not a meaningful statistic. For example, every person hospitalised from COVID-19 had consumed water at some point in preceding months. It’s not evidence that water causes s

That’s a really interesting distinction. Clearly there’s an “original crime”, the first person to rip the CD and put it online (or whatever kids do to pirate music nowadays). But then if I download a file, create a copy, and share it with y

There is indeed, but not when you’re torrenting (i.e. you can’t download without also uploading).

I'm sure they exist. I think the point is more that you shouldn't need to trust your ISP's record-keeping to avoid life-alteringly big fines.

Yes, but torrenting is not ONLY downloading, it's both. The articles you link are very clearly talking about 'Sharing' (from link 2: "File sharing consists of both download and upload of a file.").

Mostly not. I am a fan of the em-dash, which a lot of people now see as absolute evidence of LLM usage. I occasionally think about swapping it out if I’m desperate not to be mixed up with an LLM, but in principle, I don’t really care if som

True, but even if you’re only in Harrogate until you’re 18, you are still signed up until you’re 22, meaning you can be killed on a battlefield aged 18 because of a decision you made when you were 16. In the context of the discussion on vot

Tell me about it. The whole thing was basically a bone thrown to Nick Clegg to entice the Lib Dems into the coalition. As far as I can tell, this neutered referendum was the only thing the Lib Dems got out of the coalition government, and e

Interesting, I previously understood this as an established fact, but turns out there are some very convincing arguments that show that I am wrong on this. Thank you for the challenge and correction.

What I’ve learned is a lot of people would call a “brisk walk” which takes your heart rate to average 130 “a run”. A runner’s definition of running can be quite different to a layperson’s.

What a bizarre way to phrase the headline. It’s a 20-year-old “woman”, the “teenagers” are male, one is 17, the others are 19.

You can use this perfectly fine without AI agents, it just so happens to produce output which is easily ingestable by LLMs. It also has drag and drop visualisation and simple syntax for creating and tracking tasks in your codebase.

Agreed. No loading spinners is a good goal, but processing spinners might be unavoidable.
