conciselyverbose, hace 8 meses a science en Scientist, after decades of study, concludes: We don't have free will

Behave is a great (if fucking beefy) read on a broad variety of influences on human behavior (it's 1B to Kahneman's Thinking Fast and Slow on my nonfiction list), but one expert's opinion on something as inherently unmeasurable as free will doesn't warrant a news story.

Cool. I think some of the older places I use (that still use bbcode instead of markdown) break if you don't have a file type in the actual url (I can't check any time soon), but not hijacking the direct link is a good step.

I'd be interested in checking it out. Other things that would affect me actually using it full time would be the presence/quality of any tools to organize a library and what your pricing model eventually looks like. I've been flirting with self hosting my stuff but it's just one of many projects I want to do and I never seem to have the time.

I appreciate the quick responses.

I mean a url ending in the file type that another site (like a forum) can display in line without a bunch of other code they may or may not support.

That's the only thing I'm missing from other places. Everyone wants to drag you to their site with a bunch of peripheral display I have no interest in.

Does this mean direct linking isn't possible?

I'm interested in how sharing works. A lot of the former favorites transitioned to forcing you into their awful apps.

It would also depend a lot on pricing. I understand the issues places had just allowing unlimited photo hosting for free, but there would need to be a lot of value added beyond that before it's something I'd pay much for. I understand the business realities, but I haven't found anything with the right balance.

Because it's some. It's not a universal requirement.

You obviously can't just take away IP rights for academic research, but you can make all federal funding conditional on literally every academic paper written by any employee of the university being public domain. Schools can preserve their ownership by completely funding themselves, or they can recognize that most of them couldn't exist without massive federal funding and that they're not entitled to privatize the proceeds of that investment. The journals would have no capability to abuse their position because there would be no content left eligible for them to prey on.

It should be an unconditional requirement that the day your university receives a penny of public funding your papers must be public domain.

The issue isn't that no free options exist. It's that using them doesn't get you the reputation needed to be funded.

Pattern recognition is something modern techniques are very good at.

ChatGPT isn't that. It also isn't intelligent and doesn't know anything. It's basically a jacked up parrot blindly throwing words together.

No, but Europeans contribute to open source, too, and if they actually go through with this it's going to fuck up a lot of projects.

The problem with that (which I would absolutely support if they want to pull nonsense like this) is that you're already under licenses that preclude that for everything already existing. It's not a real option.

Give Apollo a contract guaranteeing free API access until the end of time without nonsense restrictions on content and maybe I'd think about it. Short of that I'm all set.

(No it's not just Apollo. But he's the most wronged and the one I use.)

Yeah, discord is way less bad than anything else I've seen. Tags would be cool but you can change settings per channel and server and as the host you can give people more granular control by using roles.

I don't really know what more you would reasonably want.

Is Red Hat legally able to do it? Yes.

At best that's extremely debateable. The GPL explicitly precludes placing any other restrictions on receiving the code outside of the ones in the GPL. A paywall to receive code from them is allowed. Terminating access for someone exercising the rights explicitly granted to them by the GPL sure as hell sounds like an additional restriction to me. The entire contract you have to sign to receive the code the first time most definitely is.

This is hilarious.

They already were killing the experience by tanking the algorithm, and there was straight up no path to me ever using the mobile site or their horrendous app, but their full on meltdown in response to the backlash is next level.
