No it's not. There is a legal distinction in IP law between the act of observing information and the act of using that information for some kind of personal gain.

Permission to access is not the same as permission to use.
Backdoors are often (almost always?) designed to look like incompetence so that there's plausible deniability.

Discounted doesn't necessarily mean at a loss. It could just mean a smaller profit margin than normal.
It's active voice. Intransitive verbs cannot be put in the passive.

It's not "we should live in the same environment we evolved in to be happy", it's "the things that make us happy are a product of the environment we evolved in, and we should take that into consideration".
I hate that this discussion is about OpenAI vs. Anthropic and not OpenAI+Anthropic vs. Google. Google put up so little of a fight against the DoW for their use of Gemini that we didn't even hear about it. They are…

Where is the source code?
Corruption does not necessarily mean a politician receiving a kickback. It can be a lot more indirect and subversive.

Secure boot doesn't provide security, just control for device manufacturers. Physical access always means the device is pwned. You can install a keylogger or something similar.

The wording was just an attempt to illustrate the point. There are cases where you can rephrase a sentence with "zero" to get basically the same meaning, but the important thing is that "zero" falls into the same…
Also not the same. You can't say "the number of apples is no", but you can with "zero".
"nothing" is not the same the same as "zero". "zero apples" means something different to "nothing", but that difference is subtle and difficult to explain, which is what makes the invention of zero such an achievement.
That doesn't follow. Linguistics is not literature.
The Rust standard library.
No it doesn't. The fact that the article had to say "Maybe Redis for caching" because Postgres can't handle caching at scale shows that Postgres is not a perfect solution. Choosing an alternative database that can do…
I strongly disagree. Monads are used all the time in non-FP languages. Parser combinators are one common example. It's just a programming pattern which gives the benefits of global variables without the downsides. They…
