The first-sale doctrine says the ticket industry could not , in fact, stop reselling. That said, your plan is one ticket per identified person, that you can't buy 4 tickets at a time for you and your friends? Not sure that'll fly

Doesn't matter. POSIX is "write once, compile everywhere," while this is "compile once, run everywhere." It could be that POSIX is easier to write than for Cosmo bins, shifting the balance between them! I see them a

I think the extremely most important aspect of AI security is for there to be a right to deinfluence . There has to be way to rescind my contributions, whether they're voluntary or not (I still think these companies are dancing with c

IANAL, but from my understanding of the points at issue, I think a court might be likely to find that a) sucking the image into RAM is a copy in the first place; b) the FFT/etc. would be a (first) derivative work; c) using a form of th

The word "discussing" is doing a lot of work there and does nothing to distinguish it from condescension. Knowing something is one thing, being nice about it is quite another. Opposing them with a "but," like "hey t

The "idea" at issue isn't like "a picture of a tree," though. It's "a picture of a tree as conceived by Ansel Adams and photographed with [technical details]."

But "you" (or I) don't describe the photo, their process does, and I'm not confident that Separation of Concerns would be enough to establish a clean room.

That tagline certainly seems like it's gonna make their "preponderance of evidence" an uphill battle!

Like Tesla FSD, it's a knob for the company's share price. All VC-adjacent moonshots are. They're the encroachment of symbolism into capitalist systems of value.

Hardware-heavy companies (e.g. a lot of the new space companies) need the level of investment that you can only really get from public markets, but are still quite small companies from the perspective of people here. For example, they migh

That would explain the opposite situation when it comes to tax avoidance schemes.

Laffer Curve, really? The inefficiency is neither proof nor justification, it's a side-effect of fairness.

Sure yeah, but to be sure, inefficiency is a side effect of the complexity.
