The first step of hashing, per the linked article, involves finding keypoints in the image that are still detected as keypoints even in an affine transformed copy of an image. How is this done? Does it involve scale-invariant feature transform (SIFT) or some other feature detection means subject to a United States patent?
I hereby propose the following hypothetical situation:
1. When you are a child, your parents expose you to a proprietary audiovisual work. 2. Over the years, the work slips from your conscious memory. 3. You produce an audiovisual work. 4. The owner of copyright in the work from part 1 threatens a copyright infringement lawsuit against you, claiming that the work you produced in part 3 is substantially similar to the work you viewed in part 1.
In a situation like this, what would be your defense or mitigation?
I didn't say Clang compiled Linux only once in those seven years. Continuous integration tools such as Tinderbox and Buildbot start compilation over once the last job finishes or when changes are submitted, whichever comes later.
How so? These reddit users find BusyBox/Linux usable. It's what you get when you replace glibc with uClibc, Newlib, or Bionic, and then drop Bash and Coreutils (GPL) in favor of BusyBox (also GPL, but not part of GNU).

Amazon also has a policy against "Content that is freely available on the web, including content with open/public copyrights." This appears to forbid free cultural works from its platform. Do you consider it an acceptable tradeoff to be exposing your child to all proprietary video all the time, knowing that your child will be forever barred from ever creating anything substantially similar to anything he has seen on Amazon?
Paying taxes is a fee for a service. Neither the service nor the fee has a relationship to citizenship, but my point is that it doesn't need to. That's why Anonymous Coward #55501671 used the word "taxpayer" in preference to "citizen", as both taxpaying citizens and taxpaying immigrants demand a competent service in exchange for their tax money.
I'm waiting for music released as Nintendo Game Boy carts.
The Famicompo Pico contest, organized by the FamiTracker.org community, has released NES cartridges of the winning original compositions, such as this. Brad Smith has covered the entirety of Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon as an NES cart. As for Game Boy in particular, however, I don't know if the LSDJ scene has held contests.
I use canvas for a custom grayscale image conversion tool I made. It has to be real-time when the user moves the sliders, constant communication and server-side rendering and uploading just wouldn't be good enough.
You could instead make it available as source code and as a Windows executable.
At this point it's become clear that anything more transformative than basic UI stuff is not something that can be properly supported
Even the UI isn't malleable enough.
I tried Firefox 57 during the first few days of beta. When reaching for Ctrl+W, Ctrl+Tab, or Ctrl+Shift+Tab while researching sources to cite in a Slashdot comment, I would often accidentally press the adjacent Ctrl+Q, causing data loss in forms that neither the browser nor the website knows how to save. Firefox's Restore Previous Session doesn't save script-built forms, such as Slashdot's inline reply form. Nor does Slashdot save them at Preview.
The Keybinder extension worked through Firefox 56, but the attempt to make an analogous WebExtension is blocked on bug 1325692, which is marked as not to be fixed in time for the release of Firefox 57. From the AMO page of one such attempt:
This add-on does not work as expected in Linux, until bug 1325692 is fixed.
Once Firefox 57 becomes the stable release, I'll be downgrading to Firefox ESR 52 and staying there as long as bug 1325692 remains unfixed.
Slashdot Mirror
iOS devs are far quicker to abandon older devices than Android devs generally sticking to working without requiring the latest greatest API level.
I wonder if that's related to users of latest iOS being able to afford more paid apps and IAPs than users of old iOS, on average.
In addition, Windows 10 S runs only Edge. (I count wrappers for Edge's engine as Edge.)

GNU tools are required to have a usable system
How so? These reddit users find BusyBox/Linux usable. It's what you get when you replace glibc with uClibc, Newlib, or Bionic, and then drop Bash and Coreutils (GPL) in favor of BusyBox (also GPL, but not part of GNU).

Clang has been compiling Linux for seven years.
I noticed that the Mastodon(tm) FOSS social networking platform apparently *CHOSE* to have some 500 character limit.
500 characters is close to the maximum length of a message in Internet Relay Chat.
Post the article on a blog or a pastebin like Twitlonger. Then Tweet the headline and a link to the article.

paying taxes has no relationship to citizenship
Correct. They are orthogonal.
Paying taxes is a fee for a service. Neither the service nor the fee has a relationship to citizenship, but my point is that it doesn't need to. That's why Anonymous Coward #55501671 used the word "taxpayer" in preference to "citizen", as both taxpaying citizens and taxpaying immigrants demand a competent service in exchange for their tax money.
However, Netflix and Amazon have a pretty high bar on quality for content to get on there.
Anyone with a bank account and a tax ID can upload video to Amazon Video Direct, so long as it's not obscene, not infringing, professionally produced, captioned, 720p or 1080p, and not high motion. What "pretty high bar" are you referring to?
As a taxpayer, I demand the State does something about this internet.
Why would you say 'taxpayer'? It has no relationship to citizenship...
Both citizens and immigrants rely on services provided by the government, and taxation funds these services.

You want my data? Pay me for it. I can refuse to sell it, too. It's called: cut the Ethernet or WiFi "cable".
Good luck even getting past the device's activation screen.

In an organization with the budget for no more than one programmer, and a part-time one at that, who should be doing the testing?
So what should one run if one has both a critical Windows-native app and a critical Linux-native app?
Except "Linux" includes the TiVo OS, Android, and Chrome OS, none of which are designed to run arbitrary desktop applications.
Then use a generic approximation to the ideal analog reconstruction, namely a suitably windowed sinc function.
You could instead make it available as source code and as a Windows executable.
"A windows executable" would be of zero use to me.
Then compile the source code.
