That hill was amazing! Almost like box seats over the show, close in, but high above places where dangerous gasses most likely to collect, and offering 360° views of surrounding valleys slowly filling with lava.

As soon as my 2nd vax dose was 14d behind-me in May 2021, I went to Iceland – which had just recently reopened to vaxed travelers – to see the Fagradalsfjall eruption. It was just a ~50m drive from Reykjavik, plus a ~1h20m hike. It was spec

Spectacular! But, would be 10x more useful if rather than a PDF this was an HTML page, or pages, where specific sections/examples could be more easily & reliably linked-to.

Just wait until they use deep-network actor-replacement to retroactively recast 'Frank Underwood' in 'House of Cards' to someone less-offensive than Kevin Spacey.

Indeed. But rapid advances in genetic therapies mean it may someday be possible to 'upgrade' a patient's existing marrow in-place, with just the necessary new genes.

Indeed. But do those most responsible, such as local officials, really want to know, if a sort of learned-helplessness in residents has created an illusion of being safer than reality?

I'm relatively confident that residents of NYC, and similar big cities, report fewer of the crimes that actually happen than people elsewhere. But that's the sort of claim from my life-experience, including plenty of time as a chi

People in New York disproportionately don't report crime, because there's so much, and so little chance of effective investigation/prosecution/recovery, they have better things to do. It's just a cost of the city&#x

There's a ton of fishy things in this methodology. To borrow from my Twitter comments ( https://twitter.com/gojomo/status/1534554504275714051 ) when this article was new: I'm open to the idea NYC safer tha

And if Fontana had written, and LWN excerpted, a statement like... "The reason for the change: Over a long period of time a consensus has been building in FOSS that licenses that EXPLICITLY DISCLAIM PATENT FORBEARANCE cannot be conside

Thanks, that’s a theory making Fedora’s statements somewhat more understandable than they were with just the LWN excerpt. Namely, that other licenses, by being silent, might be construable as implying patent permissions. Perhaps the Creativ

It doesn’t ‘preclude’ anything by disclaiming implications either way. It leaves all possibilities open, which is the opposite of ‘precluding’. Someone can absolutely say “Though some might think my prior words endorse or reject X, let me

The stated reason seems self-refuting within its own text. The quoted section of CC0 doesn't "preclude any form of patent licensing or patent forbearance". It just makes clear that CC0 is silent on those issues, allowing othe

Agreed, bulk collection gets dominated by crap, which individually has little value. But there's some absolutely essential priceless diamonds hidden in the crap. And they can't be found/known at the time of collection: only w

I'm sorry you had some issues with the National Library of Australia's collections. I've never been an expert on Australian law, & it's been a while since (when I was at IA a decade+ ago) I worked with that library.

I'm talking about the unfair allegation of privacy violations, here. Note that when the Archive shares crawled content with other libraries, those other libraries often have their own legal right to collect, preserve, and make-availabl

In truth, regulation can only reliably protect your privacy from well-behaved actors whose actions/violations are observable. If you've taken no self-help measures to limit access, then bad actors, unobservable to you and regulato
