So are you eliminating/drastically reducing health and safety trials for new drugs, tripling taxes to throw vast amounts of public money at the problem and instead having the solve the hard problems of government waste and political corruption, or having a glorious workers revolution that this time unlike all the other tines actually creates a communist utopia and not something that doesn't count, or is this a hypothetical post-scarcity scenario or what?

Burn them to the ground to expose the hyper-green grass blocks below! (/s… maybe)

One of the reasons I like mushroom biomes, but also import grass into wherever I'm building in one. The grass is in fact greener where also hostile mobs don't spawn.

(1m size blocks are required by the gameplay)

They aren't? There's nothing that requires a voxel to represent a 1m cube. They could be 0.5m cubes, or even something exotic like spheres with a calculated surface stretching over them to smooth out the result. 1m cubes are just convenient and popularized by Minecraft.

The issue is with what drug R&D looks like. You invent some new compound you think will treat X because it has a similar structure to other compounds that treat X. Now you need a decade or so of trials to prove that it actually treats X, that it doesn't have side effects too severe to stop people from taking it for X, that it doesn't also silently cause some kind of obscure cancer, and then it might get approved (and if it doesn't that manpower and money was wasted) and the exclusivity time granted by your patent is how you turn a net profit from the last ten years of work because it's much easier for another company to spin up a factory making X than it is to get X approved in the first place so anyone else making the drug can charge less to cover their much lower costs in getting it to market and will eat the lunch you spent the last decade+ cooking.

Unless you intend for medical R&D to be done purely under public funding, which is an entirely different scenario than just "no patent law."

Even as a “Vibe Coder” you kind of still need to know the idea of what code you need and what you want it to do.

I've fiddled with it a bit. IM(limited)E, you tend to get the best results if what you tell it you want broadly, and then in a significant level of detail, and especially if you tell it to ask you any questions it has about the design. So something like "I want you to build an app in $LANGUAGE that does $TASK on $PLATFORM. As I see it, I think the interface should look like $DETAILED_DESCRIPTION_OF_INTERFACE and here's what should happen when those elements are interacted with,,, Please ask as many questions as you think are necessary for clarity."

Also, unless you're setting it to require personal approval for every terminal command, I'd only run one of those in a VM of some kind, where any potential damage from any potential fuckups are limited.

Not to defend RFK, but this argument is dumb.

People from everywhere it doesn't natively grow developed cancer long before they had access to tobacco. That doesn't prove tobacco use doesn't cause cancer, it just means it isn't the only potential cause.

Why are so many people doing an act that is objectively creepy, stupid and most users hate the entire experience?

The death of third places.

Advertising company makes it harder to block ads on their browser, news at 11.

Or did anyone forget that they made an explicit effort to block another ad blocking extension a while back, including blocking it from the Chrome store, blocking you from installing it manually and even blocking at least some versions of it from being manually installed in developer mode?

Ad nauseam, because it also simulated ad clicks and thus ruined their metrics.

EDIT: Fucking phone autocorrect. "as clocks" -> "ad clicks".

The best part of that line is that everyone left of fascism reads it as a direct threat - bow to our will or there will be blood, while the right can claim it's just them worrying about the left turning violent.

I mean, he doesn't want them to cancel his class if someone skips so he needs an alternate to ride the bench just in case.

Nah, your lifetime license will be fine. They'll just slightly rename the products, release them as "entirely new, unrelated products" and cease updating it under the old name. You can still use the old, never updated product in perpetuity, if you want...

The first time this happened to me was a MUD client of all things. zMUD discontinued, check out the new cMUD! Also available with a lifetime license just like zMUD was!

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, so come on Mazzoni, provide said extraordinary evidence!

Odds are that at the most she can manage is evidence of 1-2 pedos being caught doing something vaguely adjacent to it and also claiming to be some flavor of LGBTQ, like how the GOP notion of drag queen story time is shaped entirely by that one library event in the UK (which is probably still the entire top page of Google results for "rainbow dildo butt monkey") and trans people by Jessica Yaniv.
