so they would have to argue what counts as a transformative work of plagiarism. how much of a stolen painting you have to paint over before it’s no longer stolen.

it’s an interesting discussion for the sake of understanding how people read. like, when i read “shadows like wings”, i see a cloak of darkness surrounding the beast. and when those “wings” are spread “wall to wall” in an enormous cavern, i see the beast magically snuffing out all light.


probably the firehose is easier to work with


yeah but git already had those features (well, not discoverability i guess) in its email functionality, it just needs a better ux.


they do, it’s called the Opel Grandland, and nobody is buying it.


i still don’t understand what it does. it seems to replicate git’s existing distributed patching capabilities using another protocol, tying it to social media profiles instead of crypto keys?


there’s another shouting match in the comments about this already, and i’m of the opinion that he establishes the wings as a simile earlier with “shadows like wings”. so i agree that it’s not ambiguous but in the other direction.


ferrules are cheap, my dude.


wikipedia’s editors are notorious sticklers for details, all credit to them. they never allow primary sources, and when your community is so small, decentralised, and old as VX, primary sources is all you get. so any attempt to correct that page is just reverted immediately based on the ground rules.
it’s like if one guy made a working free energy device that powered his house but he couldn’t even get anyone to come and look at it because “free energy devices don’t exist”.


until it goes to court. i am giddy for the day.


pretty much, with the caveat that code that has gone through an llm can’t ever be licensed or copyrighted. it’s basically a public domainifyer.


oh i remember when my university switched to canvas. people couldn’t get their masters.


are you still talking about the quote? because tolkien does that all throughout the books. he establishes that a thing is “like” something else, then refers to it by that other thing as shorthand for the sake of tone. or are you suggesting that “from wall to wall” is literal as well?


not in the passage you quoted, no. i know he was meticulous about translation notes, is there anything in those?


i pinned a video in the comm that should serve as an introduction. it’s from rockwell, so it’s specific to their products, but the principles are in there.


Some in the community say that doesn’t count and you’re not a fan unless you actually play.
yeah because if there’s anything the nerd community needs more of it’s bullying


he establishes a simile in one sentence and reuses it further on. common writing trick.
they have previously argued that llm output is transformative itself, but that’s been struck down. i’m not sure what the next avenue they will take is but they will definitely take it.
