Do you have an example of "inlined JSON on github.com pages"? I can't imagine what this looks like.

Or they believe that people are too stupid to understand how good their product is.

Which ones?

By lobbying regulators to force your competitors to add watermarks too.

From the OP: "It affects independent developers, FOSS contributors, and even regular users who want to install apps outside of Google Play"

Probably https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/right-to-read.en.html , mentioned elsewhere in the thread.

> The hypothetical "library of all possible books" isn't useful to anyone.

That's an archive, and it has its own uses for researchers, especially historians.

> why do hydroponics always seem to involve indoor/UV lighting?

Hydroponics and artificial lighting increase density (no/less volume wasted by dirt, and can stack plant beds on top of each other). UV lighting is more power-efficient artificial lighting, so it's the next logical step.

And if you grow plants indoor somewhat densely, they'll leave your apartment in constant semi-darkness if you rely on sunlight. I have this issue with my basil and cherry tomatoes, for example.

No, because you don't incentivize the training of the next version of LLama, and the current version was not trained because you wanted to run that query.

This is not true of Gemini.

There are, but they each have their tradeoffs.

Proof of work and micropayments (eg. Xanadu or Internet Mail 2000) schemes solve spamming and LLM scraping, but are more expensive or more CPU-intensive.

P2P systems like FreeNet too, but they are harder to use and more storage intensive and make it easier to spy on individual users.

Tor solves UK-like surveillance laws but it's slower and makes it easier to spam.

I started at about the same time you did, and I've never seen an instance of software expecting a Python version newer than what is in Debian stable. It happens all the time for Nodejs, Go, or Rust though.

Facebook trained on LibGen, which is made of printed books.

What can your unsupervised AI do to turn a 900$/week profit that someone else's unsupervised AI can't do for 10$/week?

Protect against the host doing what?

They can create chatrooms dynamically so no one but the user will see them.

So you have an amd64 CPU and Debian's "i386" packages will keep working on it. As per the release notes:

> The i386 architecture is now only intended to be used on a 64-bit (amd64) CPU.

Where would the money come from?

> There's a built in LED which acts as a torch - which is only useful if you wear it on the left wrist.

Hindsight is 20/20. Google was considered by geeks to be a very reliable company at some point.

> Then deny them the ability to verify their ID with anything!

Then it's up to legislators to make this illegal. Or at least restrict it to specific purposes, and with a judge's approval.

It's not. You can look at the Git history, it was added two months ago: https://github.com/eu-digital-identity-wallet/av-app-android...

> By design, this app isn't mandatory. There should be an alternative way to do age verification. If you can't access a service because you can't run the app, the service fucked up.

So you complain to the service, they either ignore you or tell you to use the app, and then what? They are not breaking any law as far as I can tell.

And even if it was, class actions in Europe are close to inexistent, and it's not worth it for any one consumer to take the multinational running the service to court.

> there's nothing stopping the governments implementing these standards from permitting GrapheneOS' signature

incompetence and/or not caring

Are you talking about this?

> In the case where TARS is on a circular orbit, the moment of release need not be precisely when v = v_targ, but rather can be at a specific orbital phase position instead.

My understanding is that it means it does not have to be precisely timed with regard to velocity, but has to be with regard to angle.

Erlang did it 20-30 years before Go

And if you ever push a service worker with a bug, then you make the browser permanently unable to display the site unless the user knows how to manually remove the service worker. I've seen it happen on Gmail.

You can read it just fine with Javascript disabled, though.

An unreliable computer treated as a god by a pre-information-age society sounds like a Star Trek episode.

It shows a lack of attention to detail when the illustration for "Merkle Trees" is not a forest (it has cycles). And "A Simple Key Hierarchy" could use an illustration of a real example instead of nonsense.
