A bunch of code was autocompleted or generated by IDEs, are open source developers supposed to release the source code of that IDE to be OSI compliant?
32.
by ko27 2y ago
You have a weird definition of open source. OS software developers don't release the books they have read or the tools they've used to write code. This is fully 100% OSI compliant source code with an approved license (Apache 2.0).

"Ratio of light speed to the area of the universe" does not determine how far you can travel in a set amount of time, because time dilation exists.

You have it the other way around. Majority of EU member countries wanted to to ban E2E, but the EU institutions prevented that.

Your examples are terrible, which probably proves the point that EU users are getting more than they are losing. Btw Europe != EU. > Banning encrypted messaging (almost passed) It's a positive thing that it was brought up and struck

Devs just won't add links when informing their users that it's cheaper on their website and Apple can't do anything about it. They are not allowed to ban it according to this ruling.

How would that work? From my previous comment, let's say you add this message (no links): "Buy with Apple Pay, or visit our website and pay 20% less". Nobody knows how many users decided to visit the website instead.

Let's say Spotify adds this in-app message: "Buy with Apple Pay, or visit our website and pay 20% less". No links, just simple text. How would anybody be able to produce a "clear paper trail"? Spotify can only say t

Apple randomly guessing how many users would have bought the app through the store and charging that amount to another company sounds like an easy anti-competitive lawsuit.

It's funny that you, and probably a lot of HN folk, consider MPA simpler than SPA. It's opposite in my experience. The name itself is actually telling you that it has more complexity (multi page vs single page). In practice, you c

Yeap, that's how exponential growth works. It just never stops.

Your explanation is wrong. For an outside observer, time dilation approaches infinity at the event horizon. Singularities don't even exist for an outside observer, they have yet to happen in the infinite future.

Stop basing your opinions on titles alone. Most of their blog posts on AI and quantum are exceptionally well written and researched, even the one you referenced: "Making a Dual of a Traversable Wormhole with a Quantum Computer" [1

Gravity is continuous, and to disprove that you would need to disprove Lorentz invariance and Einstein's relativity. It's actually amusing that, just few weeks ago, people here on HN were arguing on why are we trying to quantize g

Particles don't have infinite precision. Position and momentum precision is limited by Heisenberg uncertainty principle. Weight precision is also limited because energy is quantized. That, however, doesn't mean that spacetime is n

There is one important thing everybody seems to be missing here. This applies to the theoretical AdS universe, NOT to our universe as far as we know.

You think the government doesn't know the stuff that's already on your ID? Or are you implying governments want to add backdoors for other companies to harvest data?

All the responses you are getting are very US centric. Just to give an example how you could do this in the EU, today. Every country is now issuing (or planning to issue soon) electronic ID cards with digital signatures that can be scanned

And then you'll finally realize it's your government that's fucked up, EU is just a reflection of it, because you'll end up with the same E2E control, like the UK.

You should be glad EU exists not wishing to leave it. More than half of countries support this kind of control, and yet it probably won't pass because of a minority of countries. Seems like EU will actually end up preventing this from

I think the argument against thread-per-core as the default can be made simply: - if you are CPU bound, work stealing will be better for most cases - if you are IO bound, thread-per-core might work better, but again, you have enough CPU hea

We are talking about consumers vs companies. Of course governments will "extort", that's what regulations are for.
