You seem to have the restrictiveness backwards? The MIT license (uutils coreutils) is less restrictive than the GPL (GNU coreutils), and the AGPL is more restrictive than the PostgreSQL license.

And it doesn't violate the PostgreSQL license to license the rewrite more restrictively. That's part of what makes MIT-style licenses less restrictive than the GPL or AGPL: they allow for more-restrictive relicensing.

The GP seems to be describing "auto hold", which is a different feature from hill start assist, and is newer and less prevalent.

There's even a billboard 979 miles away in Arizona: https://stock.adobe.com/images/eloy-az-nov-23-2024-buc-ee-s-...

It looks like the "Skin Damage Over Time" chart is the same information as the timer.

It would be useful to have an option to change the time of day, rather than always using the current time; e.g. for planning at night what to do tomorrow.

To go even deeper into the weeds: this is only true of "simple" requests[0]. Requests that aren't "simple" always require preflight approval. This is based on which requests a <form> or link could already create without approval; since the dawn of time, <form method="post"> could submit a potentially-destructive request, and sites needed to protect themselves against that via XSRF tokens; so CORS could allow submiting the same class of requests without preflight approval, and not introduce any new attacks. But there's no <form method="delete">, for example, so CORS would have created attacks against previously-secure sites if it had allowed DELETE requests without preflight approval.

The part you may be missing is that cookies exist.

User visits A.com, types in their username and password, and a cookie is set in their browser. The browser will send that cookie back to A.com with all subsequent requests, and A.com's server will use it to enable access to the user's account.

Now the user visits B.com, which makes a request to A.com/private_user_data. The user's cookie is sent with this request, so A.com will respond with (and B.com will receive) the user's private data without the user consenting to this at all (not even in a "misguided" way).

At least within the federal court system, binding precedent is already freely available. Only circuit courts and SCOTUS can create binding precedent, and the opinions of those courts are freely available on their respective sites, outside of PACER. E.g., here's the 9th circuit: https://www.ca9.uscourts.gov/decisions/opinions/

>Notepad++ name itself is trademarked by Don Ho

Is it? I can't find a trademark registration on the USPTO site.

The part that would violate guarantees in JavaScript is not function objects being kept alive longer, but function objects which should be distinct not being so.

    function foo() {
        return function() { };
    }
    console.log(foo() === foo()); // This must log `false` in a compliant implementation

The linked Google policy states:

>We won’t give notice when legally prohibited under the terms of the request.

The post states that his lawyer has reviewed the subpoena, but doesn't mention whether or not it contained a non-disclosure order. That's an important detail to address if the claim is that Google acted against its own policy.

    Running 100,000 `SELECT 1` queries:
    PostgreSQL (localhost): 2.84 seconds
    PostgreSQL (Unix socket): 1.93 seconds

The original claim being discussed is about the overhead of an in-process database vs. a database server in a separate process, not about whether SQLite or PostgreSQL have a faster database engine.

Because it doesn't make a difference, because `SELECT 1` doesn't need to touch the database:

    Running 100,000 `SELECT 1` queries:
    PostgreSQL (localhost): 2.71 seconds
    SQLite (in-memory): 0.07 seconds
    SQLite (tempfile): 0.07 seconds

Looks like the overhead is not insignificant:

    Running 100,000 `SELECT 1` queries:
    PostgreSQL (localhost): 2.77 seconds
    SQLite (in-memory): 0.07 seconds

That defense didn't do too well in another case: https://www.courthousenews.com/third-circuit-backs-new-jerse...

A very long time ago, I had the idea to set up a joke site advertising "SpamZero, the world's best spam filter", with a bunch of hype about how it never, ever misses spam. When you clicked the download link, the joke would be revealed: you would get a file consisting of `function isSpam(msg) { return true; }`.

Apparently that's not a joke anymore?!
