It can never be as practical as leaving it in the fuel it came from. This is a waste of time, and only deepens the pit of climate catastrophe.

Government IDs are not a solved problem, and you don't seem to have even tried to consider the issues involved. The key distinction between voting and cold medicine is that you have a right to vote , but not to buy cold medicine. So i

The JS constantly grabbing the anchor and updating it is absolutely appalling UX. It took me something like 11 back button presses to get back to where I was. Borderline malware.

I don't think this is actually a significant difference between GPLv2 and v3. At the bottom of the quoted list of requirements, v2 says: > These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. It is possible that v3's wordi

I think you are exaggerating the importance of undo/redo. Even in google docs, if you restore from a savepoint you can only go backwards. And besides, the complaints OP got were "I'm losing all my work" - I doubt someone

I don't think clause 2b says that, do you perhaps mean clause 2a? In GPLv2 that says: > a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. while in GPLv3 it

It got that name from Acme. I don't think it's any worse than "yank", which most of us continue to put up with.

Literally what do you expect them to post? Sable is a patent troll who very famously sued Cloudflare, and recently lost. What else could they possibly mean? https://blog.cloudflare.com/patent-troll-sable-pays-up/

Some other, less expensive, less corrupt tribunal mechanism? I don't think GP is saying courts are bad because they're courts, they're saying US courts happen to be bad and expensive (which is not necessary).

Thank you for making the distinction (since I should read GP's book) and thanks also for mentioning this brilliant book, so I don't have to.

Why would needing more energy make it easier to satisfy the total demand for energy with renewable sources?

I don't understand this comment. Who is "we"? There is one segment of society ringing alarm bells about irreversible damage to the environment, and another that seems determined to make number go up as fast as possible with n

Is Plan9 in this context related at all to Bell Labs's Plan9? Seems too similar to be coincidence.

Why would the extremely long term be a useful measure, when we have no way to know how long that will take to happen, and no way to know what will happen in the meantime to disrupt it?

The DMCA is American law, so the parent comment can only be referring to America. Obviously doesn't apply outside there. > I don't think any Linux distros have faced legal trouble over distributing VLC, even if they are America

Then those people do not seriously think nuclear weapons are an affront to humanity. It doesn't just mean "very bad". It's against human dignity. You shouldn't do it, ever. Killing isn't an affront to humanity,

The answer is probably wrong?

It's coherent (just) for something to be an affront to humanity and helpful for some tasks. It's emphatically not coherent for you to consider something an affront to humanity and to condone using it.

School is where you kid spends the majority of the time. If they find it boring, and the school is unable/unwilling to provide enrichment, then it is an uphill battle to resist that. The ideal solution is to make the work they do at sc

It is good to care about this sort of thing, but this is untargeted recording in public. It is not very different to the fact that if I was recording a home movie in public I may incidentally record someone's conversation. The real har

This is just incredible. I listen to tonnes of old Vaporwave playlists and I've been desperately looking for somewhere to record who-wrote-what who-sampled-whom and so on. Mostly so I could find the original work and check it out.
