The “Forgetting How Your Own Code Works” is real. I’ve looked at code, thought to myself “what fcking idiot wrote this garbage”, only to see my own name next to it. It’s a very humbling experience
He absolutely nailed it, actually. The fact that you posted it speaks to the success of the viral marketing campaign. If you’re in doubt that this is an ad, either turn on sound or notice that the weirdly big URL tag on his pullover goes unpractically over the zipper.
Counteroffer. We eliminate copyright laws all together. For anyone and everyone.
Let move to a system in which we found the projects before their release. And once released they are available to everyone for free.
Also let’s make a system where everyone can work a basic work like 20-30 hours a week and get a living wage and the rest of the time we can just produce art of any kind of thing for free to anyone as we’ll already had our needs covered and we won’t have the need to monetize every second of out existence.
Yep, its definitely not possible that nice small businesses like universal and sony would sue without an actual case in order to try and crush competitors with costs.
In the same way that a person can learn the material and also use that knowledge to potentially plagiarize it, though. It’s no different in that sense. What is different is the speed of learning and both the speed and capacity of recall. However, it doesn’t change the fundamental truths of OP’s explanation.
Also, when you’re talking specifically about music, you’re talking about a very limited subset of note combinations that will sound pleasing to human ears. Additionally, even human composers commonly struggle to not simply accidentally reproduce others’ work, which is partly why the music industry is filled with constant copyright litigation.
I’m not sure how and I’m not sure why but scooter is unequivocally the perfect title to resemble your cat. Not that he looks like or even reminds me of a scooter but that whenever I see him, it rings in my ears more ferociously than tinnitus ever could, … “scooter”.
Scooter is one of the first cats I began identifying on lemmy because of the sheer perfection of his name in correspondence to physical presence. I would not believe you if you said you thought of any other names, because no other name could be appropriate for him, aside from scooter.
I know that train model, we had them here too; they’re pretty heavy and expensive compared to the lighter rail models that many companies are buying now. It has quite a heavy frame compared to newer models.
I also suspect most tesla workers don’t come by train anyway, so they don’t need that much capacity.
I like them for nostalgia reasons, but definitely not for quality reasons. Though I must say, the rail service has refreshed them a few years back and they’re not as bad as they used to be, though it does feel like they’re the model that breaks down the most whenever there’s some sort of extreme weather
The biggest problem is acceleration, though, which is still an issue for lines with many stops like the ones you see here. I imagine they’d do a lot better in countries that have lines where trains can go at least half an hour without stopping anywhere.
Maybe we’ll see the return of double deckers once Tesla makes its first double decker car (I’m thinking “terrible electric RV with a tiny sleeping area on top”) so they’re cool again.
It doesn’t double the capacity. It’s more a 30% increase. And, double-deckers are actually old. They date from the 19th century. In 1855, the Chemin de fer de l’Ouest introduced double-deckers on suburban lines of Paris.
Yahoo, like all home pages and web news sites are aggregators. Just like most websites these days. There are few original sources for international and national news reporting anymore. And the vast majority of websites simply buy the news they want.
It’s one big circle jerk with everyone citing pretty much the same sources all the time.
I don’t feel it is. They aren’t saying that their physical requirements should be free (computers, engineers, programmers, electricity, etc…) which is what is being used for the analogy (cheese, ingredients, etc…).
It would be better to claim “I run a sandwich shop and couldn’t afford to run it if I had to pay for every recipe, idea, and technique I use in the business.”
Now, it’s not as simple as this, and I’m not claiming it is. But this example isn’t anywhere near correct. It’s like the old claim that pirating something is the same as stealing it. The usage on one thing doesn’t equal the loss of something physical.
It’s one of those reasons why laws about this are difficult. Too strict and no one would be able to do “fan”-anything and many other issues (“if it uses AI” takes out many digital tools, etc…), too loose and you don’t really have laws at all.
