Surprisingly it’s not easy, and depending on the field it can be quite challenging. The reason for this is that TeX captures the visual aspects of typesetting, not the semantic meaning of the mathematics. A simple example is ‘\sum’ which pr

I… don’t think so? Machiavelli was challenging the zero-sum 14-1500s Catholic Christian thinking that the world was set in stone by God and that providence was beyond humanity’s control. This is what he means by encouraging “ambition” among

In hindsight Ward’s choice of the word “debt” may not have been the right one. It feels more like “legacy code”, in that there was nothing wrong with it at the time. Its impact on newer parts of the system is to create a “legacy burden”. Of

You've not accounted for the tiny number of observations that we've made nor the limited power of our observations. We're not even sure if life existed on the planet literally next to us, let alone these exoplanets. Otherwise

It’s been federal law since 1976 that copyright “preempts” any other laws granting overlapping claims. This includes contracts, which fall under state law. Now, strictly speaking the courts are divided on how to treat the specifics of these

It’s not though, it’s a restriction on using the material produced by the service. Any contract terms regarding such are superseded by copyright law - the only rights belonging to the owner are those granted by copyright law and the only re

I don’t know, deciding not to support multi-window mode seems ok to me. It’s a relic of the past and dragging around all that baggage often isn’t worth it.

There’s so much hard evidence in this video - you can see real people and hear from them. Then on the tech side there’s - nothing - just some hollow rhetoric. Industries come and go - gold, shipbuilding, tourism. It’s SF’s attempts to keep

Yes, the “copyright base image that it uses as a scaffold” case is special and I agree that we’ve not seen the conclusion there yet. Though, it must be said that I’d expect to the extent that such copyright exists it’s going to belong to th

You can’t because copyright law supersedes contract law and copyright law states that such rights are exclusive - thus contract law cannot be used to usurp or invent a copying restriction. Licensing is the exclusive right of the copyright o

Yeah this is excessive in the extreme. Wave goodbye to your copyright if you upload images to this service. The other thing is that they want you to pay to use the generated images commercially - but (as far as we know) purely AI generated
