Doesn't this apply at least to live streamed data? I mean, is there content that is born right on the plaftform without masters? Just asking

I remember I heard of Tandy by messing around with settings in Arkanoid (DOS) when I was a kid (I was born in 1983)

I'd like to question how poorly the article was peer reviewed before publication

I respectfully disagree: public shaming should be enough. After all, we have a scientific community for this exact reason: we can tell frauds, or blatant mistakes if we want to feel charitable, by examining them collectively. And that serves as an immunity system against these cases. No other vengeanceful punishment is really necessary.

Also, if we really are fond of consequences, frauds carry over the price of having to confront, for future publishing, with a scientific community that has grown a bias against the frauder; and the latter will have to regain trust if he/she wants to publish again.

The criminal charges should be for those who use unproven scientific results to endorse their own foul agenda.

Happy to hear about it. It was an intolerable show of hubris, marketing babble and general pretentiousness.

You absolutely should. Papers should always have reproducible code, otherwise there is no practical usage for the community. Crap is better than nothing.

Did anybody actually read those researches?

FYI, the official reply: https://about.fb.com/news/2021/09/research-teen-well-being-a...

Not gentle at all :) Requires familiarity.

Also, how about Mesa3D copying Vulkan? It predates it.

I mean, I already wonder what will happen when Square Enix will pull life support to "Rise of the Tomb Raider"'s "endurance mode" servers. A whole game mode made useless. It would be nice if community could patch the game and point it towards different servers maintained by community. Same for PS3 store, why can't I download and run arbitrary software on the console?

Forever maintenance sounds absurd. "Right-to-maintain" seems much better, like "please, release blueprints and sdks, allowing users to run community powered update systems"

I'd say that this decision by Google stems from regulators and public opnion bashing against misinformation.

Private companies follow the wind of the policies that are there to coerce them. In this case, the policy that is being put in place is that misinformation is dangerous and should be countered.

In 5 years, misinformation could be relegated to Tor networks, where it belongs.

> Edit: Within the law. To be honest, there is very little I see that should be censored beyond CP.

Self harm, terrorism, revenge porn, fabricated news. Just to name a few.

Internet is very different from what we experienced in the 90s. The ingress barrier guaranteed good content (or at least entertaining content). Now the barrier to content submission has been lowered so much that really anything makes on the Web and this is not good. There are reasons, after all, for having locks on entrance doors, right?

I am quite happy that Google "got the message" from regulators that misinformation is a real danger and we should apply zero tolerance to web polluters.

Crap journalism.

Accessing user data is one of the 2 main ways to get fired (the other is being racist or making sexual harrassment) at FB. There are warning signs everywhere and the company does a great job in letting you know the boundaries.

That may not have held as true in 2015 as now, but what's the point of reporting an event happened 6 years ago, when the world had a completely different face?

I wonder what performance gains we could obtain by running locally all services on loopback. The network latency should be the same of kernel itself.

and for AI industry as well, hoping the RTX cards will get affordable someday...

Why not just a stripped down custom Android image?

Why this looks so dangerously wrong? It is leaking "how"-type decisions into "what"-type configurations, making actually difficult to understand how the system is configured.

Erlang?

(According to https://cbeci.org/cbeci/comparisons it's actually 0.6%. It is a tragedy anyway)

Plus, cryptos are responsible of 1% of world elecrticity consumption. Holy cow.

I am a PhD student at a university in Roma3. Tomorrow I'll have to explain a student that, no, I won't give access to AI lab's Teslas to let them research a Deep Learning algorithm to forecast bitcoin price. Groan.

It's always a pleasure to read Sanglard's posts. Best known for his 3dfx dissertation.

Uhm, I used to think that patents are a monopoly on a certain implementation of an idea, not the idea itself. If you own a patent of a video codec, that doesn't make you automatically owner of all codecs of the world. Am I wrong?

This looks like a random episode from "How to get away with murder"

Wasn't the GDPR supposed to award fines in the range of millions?

beside the historycal antropological value, and all the associated hilarity, there is very little content worth saving

Isn't this an April's Fool?

yes, this is due to Medium being a very poor blogging platform for coders. Too bad it is a SEO valkyrie ride

me too, I'll never understand what posts get the attention :D
