Possibly, but surely only a few of them would be that bad to be willing to cut off their noses to spite their faces like that.

That is a very confusing headline, coming from a country where Libor is fairly common personal name. Why not spell it LIBOR instead?

One of the major issues IMO is the fact that there's very limited time budgeted to history in schools. If you want to learn a broad array of subjects in high school (and you usually need to do that), you won't get that many hi

For someone living in Europe, you see Greek roots everywhere but Chinese roots nowhere, so I'm not sure that anyone is "conveniently ignoring" anything, rather than simply teaching or learning local history.

Has your argument been tested anywhere? I'm quite sure that for example in my country it would utterly fail -- the origin of the work is irrelevant in our copyright act.

I'm mildly skeptical that a court would accept this reasoning in cases of works with many copies and someone making a change to one such personal copy.

The results of levitate on target may vary depending on the game engine used, but it's generally fun.

I'm reasonably certain that I read very similar things in some writings of Piotr Woźniak on the things he found out while working on SuperMemo. Must have been at least ten years ago.

I'm not sure why you'd be suggesting that the already captured regulators at NRC should be even more limited, unless your wish were to see some nice nuclear fireworks.

The Python compiler can output working code just fine. It takes either a Lisp structure (COMPILE) and generates a code object in memory, or takes a text file (COMPILE-FILE) and generates a FASL file. This has absolutely nothing to do with t
