If you are correct, let's ensure the browser duopoly is broken up first, rather than forcing Apple to open the market for Google to corner it. Then it will truly be a monopoly and all consumers lose.

I don't know if I'm in the minority or the majority, but I can say my experience definitely doesn't match the view you're invoking. When I procrastinate due to my perfectionism, I pretty much never do something enjoyable

I understand the sentiment, and often feel this way too, but I think it's reductive to assume the answer is to let large companies/investors to fail. Ideally, if we ensure adequate diversity in the market, then having companies de

I also occasionally try Brave search when a DDG search fails. Sometimes Brave finds what I want, but I frequently get Captcha (and now proof of work) challenges that are quite annoying. I don't get this with any other search provider (

Not just every launch, but also if you leave it long enough, it'll pop up again during the same session. This was what made me finally uninstall it. And while Firefox has lots of flags and ways to tweak things like this, it's not

Legitimately curious. Considering Firefox Quantum was released in 2017, is it even possible that my M1 is running any other version of Firefox? Doesn't seem likely considering the copy on the Mozilla site [1] for Firefox Quantum: >

As someone in the Apple ecosystem, Firefox is not a very compelling alternative. I've certainly tried: Firefox Focus was my main iOS browser for a few years (I know it's Webkit-based) and I've tried switching on desktop as we

I tried Gentoo Prefix for a while on macOS, so I could use the same package manager across OSes, but always compiling from source got a bit tiresome on a laptop, so I went with MacPorts instead.

That seems like a tenuous defense at best. If your prompt references copyrighted material and Midjourney generates a copyrighted image as a result, it's clear the training data must have contained that work, and whatever filters they h

Yes, the prose was always under copyright, but the key point for the case linked in the wikipedia article is: > INS members would rewrite the news and publish it as their own without attribution to AP. So the case hinged on INS indeed re

These days most news is mixed with analysis [1] (which is often biased). I wonder if part of the reason for this shift is that analysis is copyrightable. It also seems like the number of opinion articles is ever expanding [2], though I don&

Just ran into this when I was about to upload two new packages. Sadly, I procrastinated a bit today, so didn't get the packages out earlier. Oh well, I guess holding off before uploading to PyPI isn't a big deal. At least they wor

The reason copyright promotes progress is that it incentives individuals and organizations to release works publicly, knowing their works are protected against unlawful copying. The end game when large content producers like The New York Ti
