If a (human) artist studies the art of some other artist, and then produces new art in the style of the original artist, is that copyright infringement?

If a band writes songs with influences and style of the Beatles, is that infringement?

If a writer reads all the works of an established author and writes a new work in the same writing style as that author, is it infringement?

If a journalist reads and learns the editorial style of the NYT and writes articles in a similar style, is that infringement?

If yes, then AI is also infringing. If no, then AI is not infringing, surely?

What better way to tell your cow-orkers "dont bug me right now".

Of course, it won't really filter out the annoying people, they'll just tap your shoulder.

Um...you *can* install Linux on most Chromebooks. A hardware switch unlocks the bootloader to do just that.

I'm current working for a US company in Australia, and I never have to think about SOX. We automated all of the SOX stuff into the background, so day to day I work oblivious to these things.

Didn't you have automation and process improvement to do the same?

In many jurisdictions, you will find that statuary warranty laws mean that a lamp failing after just 3-4 years can be replaced free regardless of manufacturer warranty.

In my jurisdiction (AU) as well as others (eg EU), law mandates that a device should last as long as is reasonably expected and advertised. If they advertise it as lasting 20y but it fails after 5, they're going to find consumer agencies breathing down their backs to replace, no matter what the official warranty is.

There could not be a more appropriate comic for this poll:

As someone who has interviewed over a hundred network engineers for a major tech company, let me just say that experienced candidates with CCIEs and experienced candidates without CCIEs have about the same success rate of passing a technical interview. The only difference seems to be that those without lean towards practical real world experience, and those without lean towards book knowledge.

He has recently between doing a lot of work on the interplanetary internet, you will find this is next big thing.

Does this have proper 2.5mm pin spacing throughout?

The most annoying thing about the regular arduino is the fact that you can't use standard protoboard for home made shields.

Please tell me they have fixed this problem.

I guess that hard drive is now worth more than the US economy.
