The real price of solar electricity is never negative. Unlike something like oil wells (which really have driven the price of oil negative) you can just turn solar off. Prices have gone negative because of things like subsidies - which in t

Is it war crimes when there's no war? Would actually be curious to learn if the answer is yes. Naively it seems like old fashioned murder without any special qualifier. I guess it could be both too?

True, license is probably irrelevant here because they aren't even intending to comply with the terms of it. To nitpick "explicitly forbidden" isn't quite right. Licenses basically only grant more permissions, they can&#

Huh, if you click through their link the person responding is also a "sumo administrator" and it's "sumobot" causing the issues. It seems entirely likely they are personally directly responsible for it. Regardless t

I don't think it's at all clear that some foss licenses (MIT for instance) are irrevocable. Not in the US, and certainly not in any possible relevant country... It's not clear that they are revocable either. As I understand

Eh, ask the author to split it in reviewable blocks if you think there's a chance you actually want a version of the code. More likely if it's introducing tons of complexity to a conceptually simple service you just outright rej

You're literally making the argument for why the problematic scenario the person you are responding to will occur. It costs nothing to waste the candidates time with this tool, so people will "turn down the dial" and do that.

Are you counting ones that involve running malicious code in a sandbox and not just trusted code on untrusted input? Because then I'd agree, but that's a much harder and different problem. My impression is that for the trusted cod

Not really. All (current) languages eventually have a compiler/runtime that is memory unsafe. This is basically fine because it's a tiny amount of surface area (relative to the amount of code that uses it) and it exists in a way t
