Egypt, Chinese, Phoenicians, Greeks, Persians, Babylonians, Ancient Israelites, Sumerians, Mayan, Incan and a host of others predated the Romans and documented the process only to be overtaken by the next civilization. The Romans were aggregators of ideas and took the tools from their conquered peoples using what worked and abandoning what didn't. It is highly doubtful as to the claim.
Not sure if you are being sarcastic, but the facts on the ground are that the constitution is broken all the time without anyone being punished enough to stop them from doing it again. Unless you outline penalties or protections such as qualified immunity for defending the constitution it becomes meaningless.
It would be poetic justic if he did, and it merely inconvenienced him, rather than having him brutalized. I walk out if I am not seen within 20 minutes of my appointment and drop the doctor if it happens twice. Doctors who don't respect your time aren't qualified to treat you.
Swapping the blue circle for black would give them the alignment they seek. Filling the full circle so there is no gap between would be a nice step as well.
Embrace, join the open source community, and buy github. Extend, add exclusive features private repositories which do not notify copywrite holders when packages use copyleft software which mandates publishing source.
Extend, add repositories which profit from copyleft software which mandates publishing source, but github enables the thieves to hide and exploit the original developers work.
Extinguish, community now works with the thieves and contributes to parasitic repos instead of open source repositories.
Private repositories and paywall repositories are absolutely not open source.
Github must have independent auditors review private repositories and paywall repositories to prevent theft of opensource or be treated as part of the theft itself.
"sponsor-only repositories, that is, private repositories that only sponsors will get access to" is this open source? Will this help open source? I don't believe so. This fragments the open source community, and creates a paywall for innovation. Further it restricts the ability to enforce open source licensing. Where is the protection for code behind a paywall and which uses copyleft source.
He paid for a ticket, he was seated. Airline is in the wrong overbooking. Everything that happened after that is on them.
Refusing to deboard and getting injured isn't a smart idea in the real world.
Imagine this was any other industry. You can't rent your apartment complex to more people than can fit and have the police shoot their dog and flash bang their kids when they refuse to sleep under a bridge that night because occupancy rates are higher than you thought and you needed to evict them.
Ah, the old appeasement trap. The censormongers who demanded their collection leave Spotify aren't going to come back now that Spotify has caved. And the people who wanted Spotify to have Joe are going to be pissed off and leave. This is a no win scenario now for Spotify. I have never listened to old Joe, but I can tell you I have paid Spotify for the last time. My small contribution doesn't mean anything in the context of their user counts, but if they were going to fold they should have done it immediately so they didn't lose the first half of content.
Precovid pandemic, yes. Coffee shops, music gigs, gaming at the local gaming cyber cafes, board games at semi local shop, meetups for coding, meetups for electronics.
PostCovid, no, occasionally I'll go out to a meal by myself, but lots of places closed or are empty.
People are weird. A person shooting random npcs in GTA likely isn't a murderer in real life, and someone that does awful things to a bot probably isn't a documented sex offender. When it is real people interactions consent is important, until AI gains sentience this is no more or less creepy than people who have inflatables.
I believe it will. This is not a rejection of right to repair. Farmers with tractors they cannot fix and electronics in landfills outweigh the cost to business, but it is troublesome. A patent industry paradigm shift must happen, perhaps shifting the burden to pay to Amazon, Walmart and other retailers when they sell knock offs which violate patents.
Without right to repair we throw away the first two "R"s in reduce, reuse, and recycle.
Unfortunately right to repair allows competitors including patent ignorers to duplicate, deceive, and dilute. Look at wireless earbuds in a rechargable jellybean case, anyone remember the first company to build them? You can find a hundred knockoffs.
Right to repair is great for consumers and businesses will need to be more ruthless and secret to survive.
