Google v. Oracle ruled that use of APIs are fair game and could be argued that test cases are strictly a use of APIs and not implementation.

Google vs Oracle ruled that APIs fall under copyright (the contrary was thought before). However, it was ruled that, in that specific case, fair use applied, because of interoperability concerns. That's the important part of this case: fair use is never automatic, it is assessed case by case.

Regarding chardet, I'm not sure "I wanted to circumvent the license" is a good way to argue fair use.


The individuals making these decisions are 100% aware of what they are doing. Driving for and implementing stuff like this is for profits, bonuses, and internal recognition.

Suck has made his mind up about which side he’s on with his money. I recall a time when people on the Forbes list were quietly political.

Right, this is socipathy, kleptocracy and pure madness that having more money than need generates.

Accurate description of META.

Yeah, thats smart. /s

Curious, what is learned doing rounds that isn't taught in med school, that ChatGPT could benefit from?

People!

Interacting with real people, facing a person trying to get help for something that they don't want to experience is vastly different than reading about a symptom or group of symptoms in a book.


That just sounds like instruct tuning on user data with extra steps. They must've collected hundreds of millions of conversation examples of people asking for medical related things by now.

You're thinking about nursing. This is a different field that I think doctors should study and practice too.

Doctors, from what I can tell, receive no formal education in nursing.


Right. All doctors are 100% happy to help you, listen intently, and are never condescending! /s

No, in my experience most are actually quite condescending, but I can't imagine they would treat me better if I was the first ever patient they had to deal with.

> Curious, what is learned doing rounds that isn't taught in med school, that ChatGPT could benefit from?

Seriously ? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The textbooks are the theory.

The hospital wards are the practice.

The hospital wards are what shows you that the human body is complex and many times things don't happen like the textbook says it will.

And then there's the ICU, pediatric, geriatric and mental health wards where the patient often cannot even describe their symptoms ...


The idea that theory does not match practice is very foreign to a software developer or somebody that works in the information processing field. We are spoiled to have mathematicians do the hard work, and then we just get to botch it all with software that doesn't even work. But people with real jobs doing actual science/engineering know that the practice never matches the theory and that one needs to harden their balls in the thick of battle to come to a true understanding of things. That's why only a software developer, in their full command of hubris and ignorance, would suggest that you can replace a doctor with a computer program that has digested every book in existence and then statistically regurgitates its contents.

Just from coding: Clean Code. Most companies require this on principle. But nobody follows it. And there is a good reason, because if you follow it, your code will be completely unreadable and thus unmaintainable.

In theory, there's no difference between theory and practice.

In practice...


Nothing. Need brain, body, hands, eyes.

Winamp 2.x would be great to add if allowed!

So, basically 'vim -d' in rust? cool

The U.S. gov't is now committing a sizeable chunk of GDP to investments and subsidies to AI companies and data centers and has reduced overall investment in wind and solar.

How do you do data transfer with only blind signaling when either user is behind a NAT?


Such is the republican lizard brain these days.


You should back up "usually"
