This is Japan, not Spain. I'd imagine the law is enforced pretty strictly like all their social rules are too.

The idea that models are transformative is debatable. Works with copyright are the thing that imbues the model with value. If that statement isn’t true, then they can just exclude those works and nothing is lost, right?

Also, half the problem isn’t distribution, it’s how those works were acquired. Even if you suppose models 44are transformative, you can’t just download stuff from piratebay. Buy copies, scan them, rip them, etc.

It’s super not cool that billion dollar vc companies can just do that.


I take to heart how my stomach reacts whenever I have to jump on a quick call. But you have to do it anyway, and the feeling of having survived those calls is, no doubt, rewarding.

Do they? I'm referring to something specific. While I happen to think LLM coding agents are pretty great, my point didn't depend on you thinking that, only on a recognition of the fact that the capabilities of these systems sharply changed very shortly after they published this --- in a very specific, noticeable way.

None of these are even remotely unique or attributable to Japan. You can find them anywhere in the developed world.

True, they've gone all in on Flink, which can also do what you want. And I suspect SparkSQL can do it also these days, but I haven't looked at that for ages.

Good luck!


You can bring your own, non-plastic bags. I do wonder if maybe some cultures just don't have this and so the deprecation of plastic bags has left everyone quite confused.

It's a very solved problem, has been for centuries probably. You can even get some with little wheels! If you absolutely can't handle the looseness of the fruits amongst your shopping, you could use string nets.


Macs have run Linux since 1996 at least.

UK has the idea of contempt of court. Even as it stands, the court can demand you submit some evidence - say an encryption key for a document. And if you refuse, they can even imprison you until you surrender the key.

Another principle is that when someone is destroying evidence, you can presume it contained incriminating evidence.

I think you could make the punishment proportional to the presumed crime.


> The median age of a renter is 42 years old and about half (46%) of renters are under the age of 40; only 10% of renters are in their seventies or older, and 15% are in their sixties. In other words, the age distribution of renters trends younger than the overall US population.

Which tells us exactly what the GP brought up: renters are younger than buyers.


If there is no one who makes the laws, the law won't exist ;)

So we have the important three:

- judiciary

- law making by Legislature

- executive powers for enforcing law

It's one of the most important things to keep them separated and not interweaved. The three powers control each other and the fourth one controlling the controlling:

- journalism and it's covered investigations or whistleblowers

And then you need the rule of law that the law is the only law.

This ground pillars of democracy.


> because ... why?

There are official explanations

and reddit can show some 'conspiracy'. Conspiracy ones sound more plausible.


I’d assume most? I got one in university shortly after I moved out, and since combining kitchens with my wife and getting a more precise scale for coffee, now have several more than I actually need.

I bake like once a year, and even discounting my daily coffee, I still use a scale several times a week.



I'm saying its not trivial to replace a box mix in a recipe with from scratch ingredients. And no, frozen dinners don't have very good flavor or texture compared to the food it emulates. Boxed cakes are superior than from-scratch cakes by many metrics. But yes, I agree that people should definitely make their own and try to get better. It's just not a trivial replacement in a recipe. Box mixes in certain granny subcultures are a staple ingredient, almost on the tier of flour. If my meatloaf glaze recipe calls for ketchup, I'll just use Heinz or whatever, and not make it from scratch, unless it was really important to me.


So....just rot then?

CO2 emission reduction is the hardest way. It requires coordinating most of the world to act in a way that disadvantages them, while anyone who defects gets an advantage.

A solution that can be unilaterally implemented by a small minority is much, much easier.


Plenty of bad things that are no fun (microplastics, air pollution, pesticides in food, ...) that are near impossible to escape, so don't deprive yourself of the fun stuff (with moderation).

Eh? We eat almost no flour on a daily basis. We might eat cake every few months.

"Standard" is not standard at all.


lol, well thanks for the spoilers. /s

There has to be a better open source mobile OS out there.

This is a good approach to take when assisted with building knowledge base (with your choice of retrieval system, ex. LLMs). 'Train' your brain like the article suggests, defer mental load to another system.

> She's upset that the recipes are different, but [...]

That is such an entitled nerd attitude. "Someone else is inconvenienced by my obvious improvements, but clearly they are wrong."

Imagine if someone came by and "standardized" all your build scripting to use the same command line parser and all your CI recipes blew up. Yeah, it's like that. People have jobs to do, even if you don't think those jobs are important. And they've spent years (or likely decades in this particular case) doing their own process improvements and optimization work.

Stay in your lane, basically.


Sure, but you missed my entire point, which was we don't want to contaminate the samples.

The entire point is looking for evidence of life and organic material. Would be a shame to spend all those billions just to not be sure if the organic material we're looking at came from Earth or Mars.


it's like blood vs gourmet food for a vampire. Vampire doesn't care about gourmet food, it only needs blood.

Similarly, AI needs data and energy. People using it to write code are providing exactly that.


I was on a liquid diet for a much shorter amount of time and my dad noted that he could blend chili. I still like chili and would probably default to that if I had to go back onto a liquid diet.

Private communication is not that hard, nothing prevents a drug lord spin their own "signal" app, and since they are already criminal, another crime is not a big deaal, so making it illegal to use secure app is dumb. Also i love banana

Because it is ideologically motivated.

Are we just ignoring the potential for totally novel forms of prion-like proteins? Like there are many other proteins. If another of them is prone to catalyzed misfoldings like prions are, that could be a seriously humanity-threatening event.
