Yeah, I have some questions to add to their faq: https://centurylibrary.com/license-info/ * Will you actually sue anybody who doesn't follow your very fussy rules about what they can't do with the public domain works…

It's parasitic on humans and it's not an infinitely deep well. Wrong?
But it was also stated that their labor is extracted, which sounds like slavery, and that they are exploited, which sounds like fraud, and that they take some psychic damage, which sounds like a JRPG. Those would all be…
The not/note typo strikes again, it reverses the meaning of a phrase.
There's a tenuous Roman connection mentioned here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principality_of_Theodoro "with several scholars identifying the "Dmitry", one of the three Golden Horde princes in the Battle of Blue…
Certainly a good source of linked data. I was just using it to investigate why there's a fort called "Babylon" in Egypt, and then admiring the well-preserved brickwork. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Babylon_Fortress
I still have a copy of Photoshop 7 burned on a CD. Photoshop was once really excellent, back before its glory was clouded by subscriptions.
Everybody is maliciously taking you seriously :D Hang in there! It gets better!
So for instance like if AI becomes slowly less relevant, then is discarded all at once. Change will be surprising! That much is likely.
Here you are taking "good explanation" and combining it with the term "just so story" which indicates a bad (arbitrary) explanation. So you cast doubt on the idea that explanations can be good. What's this, sabotage?
Some Amazon sites, they said. Lots of random companies and institutions: a Danish IT company, a Dutch cybersecurity company, Orange telecoms (in France). Various governments' sites for various services. Some BBC TV show…
Progress is future knowledge. You don't know what future knowledge is, yet. When you know, it will have become present knowledge. You don't know that any particular ongoing change is progress. LOL predictions.

It's simple and elegant if you like it, overcomplicated if you don't.
I want to know more about these downvotes! If they're about technical errors. If you simply dislike etymology, never mind.
But if what you want is understanding, you want a good explanation. (Or to quote TheOtherHobbes from elsewhere in these comments, a reasonable metaphor: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50220700)
Similar to a quote from Niels Bohr, "those who are not shocked when they first come across quantum theory cannot possibly have understood it".
I like the word "eurgh", which is pronounced like vomiting: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/eurgh Unsure how to respell that one.
Hiccough is the best one.
Rowhammer was kind of special, surely, what with being based on a physical design flaw?
But there's no quality that makes an object discernable as anything at all; it's all theories. You don't absorb facts about reality through a sense organ, you start with a theory - such as "this is hexagonal" or "this…
