They even respect the border with the old Russian Alaska.

The original intention of copyright was the same as that of patents: To encourage the creation of new works by making it possible to monetize them through licensing

Not that it really changes much of your larger point, but that's not really true. The original intention of copyright comes from the Licensing of the Press Act 1662 and the Statute of Anne 1710 and neither of those was intended to encourage the creation of new works. On the contrary, they were intended to discourage the creation of new works. The problem at the time is that people were printing too many new works, many of which were considered a threat to the monarchy and/or the church. Copyright forced all printers to be registered with the Stationers' Company initially (a crown-monitored guild) and later the crown itself, to aid in censorship and government control of the press.

I mean...yeah. Just because something is provably the best possible thing, doesn't mean it's good. Sorting should be avoided if at all possible. (And in many cases, such as with numbers, you can do better than comparison-based sorts)

If the article had been about that, that would have been an interesting article.

To the best of my knowledge, this "drives from the same batch fail at around the same time" folk wisdom has never been demonstrated in statistical studies. But, I mean, mixing drive models is certainly not going to do any harm.

Those instructions are from the official docs, and install.sh comes from the source repo. It's an annoying script (it basically runs apt, npm, make, on your behalf...thanks, I can do that myself), but if you're trusting the repo source to begin with, I don't think it's any less secure.

??? Google didn't display its first ad until 2000. What kind of advertising/marketing company doesn't display a single ad for 2 years?

JXL is not proprietary. It's an open, royalty-free format whose reference implementation is BSD-licensed.

How is something a crime if you do it once, but not if you do it a million times?

You can dream up other examples of this.

If you're a DJ performing for a large audience and yell "I want to see you shake it for me!", that is legal. If you walk up to one specific woman on the street and pull her aside and say "I want to see you shake it for me", that's sexual harassment.

If the government announces that the median income of Detroit residents has gone up by 3%, that's normal. If the government public announces that John Fuckface, 36.2 years old, living at 123 Fake Street, had his income increase by 5% in the previous year, that's a privacy violation.

The whole point of training the AI is to build a model that can't reproduce a single work. It may seem superficially strange, but the more works you include, the less capable it is of reproducing one work.

You can see more cases of it here on KnewYourMeme. Apparently it's been done since early October

Seriously, bot, you've got to stop this shit. You can't have your leading sentence reference the previous sentence.

I don't see one on Civitai (though that doesn't mean someone hasn't published one somewhere else). Though if you want 2000s Movie Poster Style (American Pie/Road Trip Ensemble) style, I guess you can do that, at least.
