This is a terrible idea, entirely unenforceable, and will accomplish nothing. Can we please stop trying to do clever things with software licenses that have nothing to do with the software itself?

Easy mistake. I edited my original comment to clarify which article I meant.

by teilo 7y ago
Just to be clear, I’m referring to the popsci.com article linked by the GP, not to the NYT article you posted. Pretty much the second half of the article. It claims that GNG prevents ketosis. It does not. It also claims that any amount of p

This entire popsci.com article is utter nonsense. It is nothing but 1950's AMA talking points, and has long been debunked. There are many reasons, but the chief one is this: All else being equal, the rate of gluconeogenesis (GNG) in th

This is an unpopular position, but nevertheless it is the truth: No one has the right to emigrate to the United States. No one. No other country is criticized so heavily for having stringent immigration policies, this despite the fact that

Why is this called a "cargo cult"? Whatever the merit of these observations, this is not what a cargo cult is.

You have nearly a hundred years of quantum mechanical experimental evidence that supports CI as equally as MWI. But you have no experimental evidence of any kind which would allow you to rule out CI, or any of the many other interpretations

I see little difference between the religious dogma of the 19th century and the scientific dogma of the MWI. For it to be remotely "settled," there actually has to be evidence. There is none. It is nothing but a logical model that

That's just, like, your opinion, man. It's also a red herring. You stated that the science is settled. It is not. Not even close. "Settled" means that that there is a scientific consensus by all but a fringe, that MWI is

The question is whether such Kuiper objects would show up on the old POSS plates. I don't know enough about that, so I yield to those who do. It certainly seems a more plausible explanation.
312.
by teilo 7y ago
This is my thought. I suspect these are asteroids. The tell is whether the stars show up on plates, say, a year later. If so, then they're not asteroids. However, that seems to have been ruled out in the Astronomical Journal article: &

They are photographic plates, then vs. now. This cannot be dismissed as simple user error. Especially in 1950 where we did not have to contend with this massive population of artificial satellites. Other solutions must be sought. What is no

It's just a Linux VM. You still need to configure it somehow, either by ssh-ing into it, or by using cloud-init.

Completely agree. I do not see any advantage here. To add: Virtualbox is supported on Windows/Mac/Linux, is trivial to install, and is the default Vagrant provider. If I want top performance, I can choose other options. Vagrant+Pa

Surely this is at least in part due to the fact that "Skymind" sounds much too close to "Skynet" for an AI company.

The only reason it did work was because you did an upgrade. I was also on the betas. As an experiment, I backed up my Homebrew install and tried one from scratch. Failed badly. Very important things like gnu-readline would not compile. I

Yep. The algorithm is: there is a leap day for every year divisible by 4, unless the year is also divisible by 100. But if the year is divisible by 400, then there is a still leap day.

What does IPU stand for in this context? The only use I know of is Image Processing Unit — silicon that is custom developed for cameras. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_processor This is clearly not that. Edit: Int

12:00 PM is not solar noon for most people, regardless of DST. Even if time zones didn't follow political boundaries, it would still not align except for those who are in the center of a given time zone. So this part of your argument i

It's just a matter of proper separation of concerns, and the creation of appropriate levels of abstraction. It can still be done in the same language.

I stand corrected. What it doesn't give you, however, is access to the control surface internals, i.e., to create new control surface "drivers" inside Ableton itself. But of course, that's currently the ONLY thing Bitwig

To add to this: Reaper may not be open source, but it feels like it is. There is no other DAW that is more extendable and configurable. If you can imagine it, and can script it, you can do it. There is a huge community of free add-ons for i

This is not a valid comparison. Bitwig gives you no access to their DSP technology in its scripting language, so it is not remotely comparable to Max in that regard. Max, on the other hand, gives you no access to Ableton's UI or API. I
