If you can dress your failure up as a success in some way to management, then you can totally avoid getting fired.

Legal concern = copyright infringement. What other legal concerns are there in this scenario?

This seems like a shortcut to type less at the cost of very leaky encapsulation, which I don't think is a good trade. You may or may not want to expose all of jnettool.tools.elements.NetworkElement as a new interface, but choosing inhe

It is not fair use in itself: https://courses.cs.duke.edu/cps182s/fall02/cscopyright/Copyr... Decompiling object code produces an approximation of the original source code. Merely making this rough copy w

If I took images from the game and converted them to WebPs then distributed them, that is still copyright infringement, even though those are not the images Nintendo created. Likewise, if you do the same with machine code to reconstructed c

I don't think that's a real legal defense. Code is just as subject to copyright as game assets (why wouldn't it be? it's just another kind of game asset), and the whole extracting assets thing making decompilations free

Jailbreaking is a pretty invasive procedure that exploits software faults in order for it to work. This really is not comparable.

I feel like all bets are off if you're modifying your phone away from what the manufacturer explicitly supports. Not saying you shouldn't, but this says nothing about the brokenness of the stock software.

The article has a list of what's new at the very start. I'm not sure what else you're not understanding.

This is an absurd argument that you are just making for the sake of argument and you know it. There's a difference between someone getting things wrong and a LLM shamelessly making something up out of the whole cloth.

I’ll just pick a topic and then ask for a summary and then ask clarifying questions. Probably don't want to start quoting hallucinated facts!

The social solution is to abolish timezones (mine is of course objectively the right one, other people must deal with breakfast at 9pm wherever they are).

You might not, but the standard library sure does. And that's the exactly the problem! How can functions in the standard library know if the time is local or UTC without any indication on the value itself? (spoiler: they can't!)

Timezoneless time I think is just a mistake in general – all times inherently have some timezone, even if the timezone is UTC.

It was clearly a typo you could choose to ignore charitably instead of nitpick. Also, what is the rest of this comment and how is it related to GTK?

That's not how authority works. Whatever you would choose to implement, you will need to have enough buy in from those middle managers and fiefdoms otherwise you will end up with heel-dragging or, worse, malicious compliance. If you&#x

Why shouldn't we want to pay people working at non-profits the same for their labor than they would get at for-profits? If they are doing just as or even more important work, why do we want to bend over backwards to justify them gettin

- That's $338k/head on average. At face value for a nonprofit, I'd like these costs broke down as this seems excessive. There is far cheaper IT labor available outside SV. You get what you pay for, though. $338k/

I think it's pretty rare you would ever use std::list and rarer still std::forward_list – the on-paper complexities might be okay but the memory locality is so bad you should almost always be using std::vector or std::deque.

Personally, I feel like I'm not any more uncomfortable with it anymore than I am with cremation – both would be pretty gnarly if they happened to you if you were alive!
