My comments are not "corporate-biased", they are business owner biased, which includes small businesses.

Employment is an free arrangement between two entities, not a modern day serfdom where the employers are now responsible for their serfs housing, food, etc.

Some people care about justice in general?

Also, normalizing stealing IP is only going to have bad consequences for everyone.

Each side has incredible freedom. There are downsides to them.

Employees can take up a huge amount of resources and then leave before costs are recovered.

What I got from this is if we mandate the hospitals open their rooms to the sun, the new correlation will cause people to avoid the sunlight because "it leads to more deaths"

I see his reply as "people say Rust is safe, but Rust just pushes it under a rug and pretends it's safe when it's still all there - just in a dependency"

So "enough of us" can take anything by forcing the asset to be valued at an artificially high value, force them to sell it for taxes, and then reduce the price down again to keep it ourselves?

Maybe a movie producer is a better analogy?

I'm not sure how paying a large corporation for generic stock photos is so much better.

Either way an actor isn't getting paid. It just prevents someone from generating it locally?

I should be able to have a different opinion without being a troll.

My point is to say many things have been replaced by technology over the years, but people do them as hobbies.

I don't see how this is different than things replaced decades ago:

Music is a human endeavor and musical recordings hurt musicians, bands, orchestras, etc. Especially those starting out.

Sure, given infinite time, they could diligently try to reproduce every bug across every version of any given product or open source library from a team at Microsoft.

However, if you have 1000s of reports a day, many of them vague with the person hoping it's close enough to a real issue to get paid, it makes sense to me personally that one needs prioritize active issues over tracking down when other issues were fixed.

It sucks to have your work made redundant, so it's hard to understand if their critism is founded or just sour grapes.

Is that really correct?

Reading the page, the software needs an update due to Apple breaking it, but 2019 is out of support so Microsoft won't fix the breaking change.

Do they even count towards safety if they aren't in release mode?

Which "Other jurisdictions manage this"?

I have lived in places with more rules, but that meant we just didn't do it. We eventually gave up.

I don't know. Someone above mentioned that don't like their browser's date picker. Maybe they are a "middle management figure", but probably not.

Which company doesn't do that?

I'm trained on protected works. Do I need to pay royalties?

One could argue most screenplays are derivative.

The video makes the argument that there is a lot of efficiency loss by converting to mechanical energy twice.

If you are a person that installs extensions from public sources, it doesn't matter what IDE you use.

If you don't (or can't) install extensions, it also doesn't matter which IDE you use.

Individuals should be able to get together and crowd fund a movie about a political figure without the government stopping them.

Yeah, undefined behavior just means not defined in the specification.

I would argue that most languages only have one compiler so it doesn't matter what is in the specification.

I think sock puppets that reply with text are a lot persuasive than just "likes".

However, I might be not typical in that I don't look at vote scores very often.

I worked on a software project make years ago. We spent a lot of money over months doing users studies to figure out the best UI for a narrow demographic.

The final UI was simple and intuitive, but it took a lot of money figuring it out.

I don't think the money would have been spent if our competition could immediately copy what we figured out.

Customers did benefit then, and now, 20 years later, anyone can do it, and humanity is little better off than if no research was done.

I think it can be cultivated.

Most people like watching movies or reading books. Other people are the main character of their own life, and I think you can learn to enjoy learning about them.

I see it in 4.6

Isn't the point that there is no way to get reliable data on this?

How would aggregation of unreliable data help?

I've had CPS call me up and question me about about play someone observed through a window.

It's a real thing.
