Inventors only profit if and when they release — Patents allow you to cover the cost of research and development even if a profitable product does not materialise or is not profitable at the time of release. R&D is essential for economi

Patents fundamentally operate to allow the owner of protection to extract value from research and development investment. If you cannot protect your research and development, then competitor may extend upon your invention without the necess

Western countries, at least the ones I've lived in, don't often out-right ban software. It's unpopular and likely to garner scrutiny from both the press and constituents, but largely, it's a political grenade — you have

I would guess that someone was hosting illegal content (likely piracy), a right's holder won an injunction, and the ISP's were told to blanket-ban the domain or IP. Not sure there is a way you can check the courts?

I guess at the end of the day, they're just fakes like any other fake reproduction. They'll be sold on marketplaces, occasionally a few buyers will be duped. But most are buying the style, not the artist, and wouldn't care. T

The cynic in me says that the Government only took notice to shift the narrative from the fact that they've pushed the election until later in the year, when everyone expected it to be in May (where it was predicted that they would mee

DUOL shares are down since the announcement, if that is at all related, but if I were a shareholder I'd certainly be selling.

Google says "737 dash 8 through 10" — and Ryanair at least (who has huge order of MAX's) uses "737-8200" or "737 MAX 10." However, considering how common it is for an airline to switch product, it would be

I've never used it, but sounds like you could pair a static-site generator and htmx for your particular use-case. Alternatively if you want to work with JSON, Vue.js stills runs within the browser without any build dependencies — it&#x

I've created a Tampermonkey script to do just that: https://gist.github.com/lachlanmcdonald/b2d9663fdb13fc1df820... It mostly works — except I've noticed that html-midi-player will continue to play the last n

Am I missing something? Performance on both Chrome and Firefox on OSX was pretty poor (or maybe the video just doesn't have enough frames to make it smoother.) Doesn't seem to respond to touch events, either...

Incredible resource! I'm often looking for trend reports /predictions when doing my own work — and searching has always been a pain. Having a collection of PDF's in one place certainly speeds that process.

I suppose this makes sense — the property has been deemed "proceeds of crime," and it stands to reason that the sale of that property to mount a legal defence would be akin to using "proceeds of crime to defend that crime.&qu

It's naive to think that these decisions are made by HR, and not, your organistion's leadership — your building stuff set by the leadership, and the HR team are executing policy as set by the leadership.

That was my first reading — in every country I've worked (that is not the U.S.), the burden of proof on the employer is very high. Which is not to say that organisations can't find their own ways to fire staff that align with the
