A better analogy would be if you wrote a book. Then I wrote a book with a different book title, but used all the same chapter titles that you did. Except the actual content of each chapter is different from yours.
Oracle is basically saying that writing a book with the same chapter titles is copyright infringement.
The content providers are paying for their bandwidth. The users are paying for their bandwidth. And who is paying the networks in between the two?
The Internet is not this vast unlimited resource of bandwidth that only the edge users have to pay to get on. ISPs also have to pay their Tier 2 or Tier 1 providers for the bandwidth that enters and leaves their network.
Entering into peering agreements directly with the content providers' CDNs is a valid approach to solving this problem without penalizing everyone else in the process. But this seems to make everyone lose their minds.
Maybe I'll give it another try, but last time I played with it none of those plugins worked for me, and the interface was not simple enough. I want to give her a remote that only has arrow buttons, enter, and back.
All the content I need is on a computer connected to my TV over HDMI. I don't need kodi for myself, but when my mom is babysitting my 2-year-old, I would like something with an easy menu interface that I can program content from multiple sources on. So whether my daughter wants to watch a show on Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, or a mp4 video file on the hard drive, my mom shouldn't have to know or care what the source of the content is.
Hopefully, Kodi can get to that point someday, but without official support from those streaming providers, it will never get there. Maybe this is a step in the right direction.
But reading the actual text of the bill, it seems to me that it only requires that enough information be publicly available so that the research being used *can* be reproduced, not that it *shall* be reproduced. I don't think it is making it mandatory to replicate the research before it is used in rule-making, but that the information be available in case someone wants to try to reproduce it at any future date.
It sounds to me like she didn't lock it out because she wasn't working on that robot. She was working in an adjoining cell where she should have been protected by safety doors.
There is a difference between having a locked door that the player can find a key for and open, versus a door that can never be opened.
In real life, there is no such thing as a door that won't ever open, so if you put such a thing in a game, you have created something that the player should reasonably expect to be able to interact with (by finding a way to open the door) but can't because you only put it there for decoration or whatever. This will lead to frustration when the player wastes time trying to figure out how to open the door. Unless, you've made it obvious that the door will never open by making it look fake, but then you've broken the immersion.
A few years ago, I set out looking for a law that forbade open carry of swords and nunchaku in my state (New York) and could not find one. I believe it is legal to open carry these items. However, cane swords were specifically banned, I presume because they are hidden.
I like to think that I don't stretch my interpretation. There are times when I simply say "I don't know what this means," rather than try to force an interpretation based on everything else I know.
It is open to interpretation, and mine still allows for this. Like I said, if the atmosphere was full of dust and ash, and then cleared enough for light to get through (like an overcast day), you would have day and night, but you would not be able to see stars, the moon, or the sun. When the atmosphere finishes clearing up (on the fourth day), they become visible.
Obviously we look at it from different perspectives. I am a Christian, and I believe the Bible is divinely inspired and meant to teach us. I also believe science is another way of discovering the work of God. If one seems to contradict the other, I assume it is a failure in interpretation, because they should both agree.
My assumption is that you totally reject the Bible to begin with, so you can very easily conclude that it is any perceived inconsistency with what you already think you know just reinforces your opinion that it is rubbish.
I'm not sure I understand what you're asking, but I'll try to explain what I meant.
If the early earth had an atmosphere that was dense with ash or debris (from heavy volcanic activity and impacts with other objects), then it may have been so thick that sunlight could not reach the surface. When He said "Let there be light," it may have just been when the atmosphere cleared up and allowed light to reach the surface. Separating the day and the night just describes the rotation of the earth, but the fact that light only hits the surface when it faces the sun would not have been evident from that vantage point until the sky cleared enough to let light through.
I think that makes way more sense than saying he created the sun after creating the earth. It sounds like you're suggesting it could mean he created the sun first, but created sunlight after, but that also makes no sense to me. I probably misunderstood you though. Care to clarify?
I am not a young-earth creationist, but you should read more carefully.
1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters.
3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 4 God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. 5 God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day.
God said "Let there be light" on the first day (after having created the heavens and the earth), but since the point of view of that verse is from the Earth's surface ("and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters"), that could just mean that "Let there be light" is just the first time sunlight has been able to reach the surface of the Earth, not necessarily that it was the creation of the sun.
I remain skeptical that the US has no interest in his extradition to Sweden, but I have no motivation to spread FUD of any kind. I'm just waiting to see what happens, and trying to predict the outcome for fun - just like I might try to predict the winner of a football game. That is all. Do try and stay calm.
I didn't know about this. How long does this protection last? If they let him go free and then the US asks for him in a $TimeInterval, is he still under the UK's protection? (where $TimeInterval = 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 1 year, etc.)
What about the above-mentioned Temporary Surrender clause in the US-Sweden Extradition Treaty? Would Sweden really suffer sanctions if the US throws its political weight around to help them out?
This isn't about "USA EVIL!" This is just an acknowledgement of the fact that the State Department REALLY REALLY wants to get their hands on him.
Extradite to Sweden to interview him on allegations of rape and decide whether to press charges. "Oh, I guess the accusations were baseless." While still in custody, Justice Department requests extradition to the U.S.
This could be a response to any number of comments in this thread, but the fact is that the Bible does not say how old the world is. The 6000 year theory is just someone's interpretation. As a Christian, it boggles my mind why other Christians hold on to that idea so strongly, when the Biblical evidence for that interpretation is so weak.

Should she have locked out every robot in the plant? She wasn't working on that robot. It moved into the cell she was working in from another cell.
One might infer that it took her by surprise because she failed to get out of the way before it crushed her.
It sounds to me like she didn't lock it out because she wasn't working on that robot. She was working in an adjoining cell where she should have been protected by safety doors.

ISPs never were under FCC regulation, as far as I know.

They will soon. Just imagine a Beowulf cluster of humans that run Linux!

Oh, good. I guess that means AOL has nothing to worry about, either.
So when browsers claim to be fully HTML5 compliant, will that even have any meaning anymore?

They won't have to wait long.
