It is very important to have the time and freedom to be idle.
In our modern society, however, we hear the phrase "time is money". So, if you are idle, you are not making money. Instead of being idle, you should be busy. "business" is good.
I learn this play of words in Spanish. Idle in Spanish is "ocio". Business in Spanish is "negocio". Thus negocio is the combination of words "negación" and "ocio". The phrase "negación del ocio" translates as "idleness denial/negation".
Tangent to the topic: One of the great things about Go is that the Go team goal is to have a great developer experience. As a result, they try to bundle common third party libraries (mux, zap) into the standard library. For example, they offered an http server, but due to lacking features community packages offered convenience. The Go team used those libraries as a reference to what people wanted, and addrd a performant and simple http routing in the standard library[1].
From that link:
> We made these changes as part of our continuing effort to make Go a great language for building production systems. We studied many third-party web frameworks, extracted what we felt were the most used features, and integrated them into net/http. Then we validated our choices and improved our design by collaborating with the community in a GitHub discussion and a proposal issue. Adding these features to the standard library means one fewer dependency for many projects. But third-party web frameworks remain a fine choice for current users or programs with advanced routing needs.
Good question. I find law in general quite ambiguous and full of edge cases and exceptions.
My basic understanding is that self-determination is the right of a nation to choose their own way of government.
[1] Self-determination includes the right of a people of an existing State to choose freely their own political system and to pursue their own economic, social, and cultural development. As such it does not, in light of the current state of international law, impose on all States the duty to introduce or maintain a democratic form of government, but essentially refers to the principle of sovereign equality of States and the prohibition of intervention which are already part of international law
Isn’t similar to looking up/copying code from stack overflow, Google or books? Use it as reference to write the code and claim ownership. My little understanding is that the whole copyright free ride for LLMS is because it is similar to the process of humans using content under copyright as reference to create something new and claim ownership.
No, it is not similar at all. There is the pesky little thing called 'copyright' which allows you to set terms under which you license your code. Stackoverflow, google and books all come with strings attached.
Your idea of how humans use content under copyright is mistaken.
I want to make an ajax request using jQuery. I look up an example in StackOverflow. I use a very similar code to the example given in the post and by not giving any attribution I just claim ownership.
Same with Spring in action books or looking up Java class references. Many times I look something up and use it as reference just tweaking the examples given.
Millions of programmers have done this.
LLMS in principle use the training data to generate an answer to the prompt, similar to the process I described.
I have a different point of view. This was a test to see if the AI could perform a specific task. Asking AI to draw a pelican riding a bike is another test. I find the experiment interesting because it proves that currently LLMs are not able to perform a simple task reliably for a long period of time.
If the journalist was not asking the right questions, or was too obvious the article was PR it’s another thing (I haven’t read WSJ’s piece, only the original post by Anthropic)
Interesting points! Maybe a better term is LLMs (BTW smart phones are not smart and people don’t seem to be confused). I agree with being dependent and sending so much data to those servers. I would mention there is a version of ChatGPT you can run locally[1].
