The email mentioned in the tweet is over a year old, with the response fixing the issue over a year old...the tweet in question is pointing out that their decisions relating to security are extremely questionable, not that this was the way

No, a doctor is going to have better information about the specifics for her situation and whether or not the risk of a reaction is worth the benefit of the vaccine.

Is there a reason you used threads in the rust example instead of tasks? I think it would have been more useful to compare against proper rust async concurrency: I ran 200k sleep tasks over 12 threads using `async-std` and each thread only

Hmm they seem to be taking it from the approach that RIAA was sending a takedown on the grounds that youtube-dl was infringing on the copyright of their members, but that doesn't seem to be what the actual takedown claims. Instead it&#

Hmm this isn't really true, DMCA takedown requests aren't just a "legal demand" in the sense that anyone can file them, it actually is illegal to file an invalid DMCA takedown request. My point is that the RIAA's DM

That's why I asked, because the takedown request wasn't claiming ownership of the youtube-dl code (or that it was just enabling infringement), it was claiming that youtube-dl was breaking DMCA section 1201, which covers circumvent

EFF never stated that it was an invalid takedown request, just that they believe that youtube-dl has enough legal uses that they think the takedown request was counterproductive.

While this is true, I was responding to a post about abusing DMCA takedowns, which have the assumption that they're using it to knowingly misrepresent infringement. And even though most abusive DMCA takedowns end up without any counter

IANAL, but DMCA takedowns do not have "no repercussions" for false claims. If the DMCA takedown was actually baseless, they would be opening themselves up to damage liabilities, as specified under 17 U.S. Code § 512 under section

I'm not sure where you got the impression that problems such as $300 million in fabricated sales, or $5 billion in undisclosed debt which were missed in audits is an issue with external scrutiny. My post is specifically pointing out th

The impression from the title is different than what the article actually says--EY missed red flags that resulted in passing the audit when it should have failed, and later scrutiny is what caused the companies to implode.

It has to be either in equilibrium, or in excess on the side of plants. If it's in excess on the side of humans, people would be dying out due to lack of food, which would then put it back into equilibrium. Deforestation isn't rel

Exhaled CO2 is in equilibrium with plants inhaling CO2 to provide us food, so exhaling isn't considered a factor in global warming.

by qw3rty01 6y ago
Breathing out CO2 is not a factor contributing to global warming because it's carbon that's already in the carbon cycle.
