Did anyone look to see if anyone else was also elevated? Surely there's an extreme measurement bias if the highest followed account gets boosted. There's no evidence to support the idea that only Elon Musk was elevated.

Companies can't revoke visas of employees... That's just not how H1B Visas work. Yes they can be fired, but they can go find another job and keep the Visa.

And Elon later explained that that had nothing to do from him making any specific request that his tweets be valued. This is largely a false creation without evidence to back it up. People are assuming intention behind something that's

I've found Discord worse in every way. Almost every server I've been in is highly reactionary to any kind of accidental phrasing. Walking on eggshells is a constant process in any Discord server. It also descends into the same typ

I had to go to the second page to find this. I completely agree. I clicked this thread looking forward to seeing some intelligent discussion of the merits of the source and issues/interesting tidbits, instead I see a bunch of Elon Musk

Drive-by pull requests that break the intention of something aren't ever going to be taken by a maintainer.

Honey is usually sold pasteurized though so botulism wouldn't be an issue. Just don't go for the fancy natural/raw stuff.

It's articles like this that make me realize why so many less educated people think that science doesn't have rigor, is close to religion, or can't be trusted. Science authors like this do a disservice to science.

I think that's covered pretty clearly in this document? If you add creative vision on top of the generated output, then that creative vision is copyrightable.

Nitpick: Everyone does this, but it's "copyright" as in "the right to copy", rather than "copywrite"/"copy-write".

Sounds like the prompt itself is quite copyrightable, the same as any code is copyrightable. Indeed in the contents is this: > While some prompts may be sufficiently creative to be protected by copyright, that does not mean that materia

We're already past the point of diminishing returns on "human creativity". And I would argue that the current (mostly recent productions) Netflix catalog is indeed repetitive and stagnant. Originality in tv production is curr

I'd say yes as the transcription is not transformative on the original, it's also possible to check whether it's identical or not.

Good to see more competition entering the market, though I don't have high hopes for the service. They specifically avoided buying any launches from the cheapest launch provider (SpaceX) for political reasons so that's going to co

SpaceX is a reliable national security partner. I'm not sure where this myth started that Elon/SpaceX is somehow an unreliable partner.

Musk historically almost always acts in good faith. He's never been in it for the money.

Only C++20 has concepts, which is a lot newer than Rust is. I've yet to ever see a C++20 concept in the wild or anyone using one outside of an example. Heck, if you ask the average C++ programmer about concepts they'll likely have

Starlink was never turned off. And there's been no evidence of him receiving payments from anyone for political purposes. And I mean just think about it, if someone tried they'd have to pay him a whole lot to not just run with it
