I agree. Labels at the top was a nice touch.

But this does not help with the visual inspection of the difference.

If it was enough, we didn’t need the chart and could just publish the numbers instead.

The point of the graph is a visual inspection of the differences. I feel like adding the one thing actually showing this relative comparison is therefore almost mandatory

I personally feel that whatever storage is being advertised, ought to be actually user-usable storage.

100gb storage, but 10gb is OS and 20gb is reserved for other nonsense? Fine, but then you ought to only be allowed to advertise as having 70gb storage.

Same for cloud storage. And whilst we’re at it, internet speeds with “up to” speeds.

Seems like a worthy citizen initiative to get the EU to look at.

It is not illegal to build a service with the same functionality.

So you are going to have to prove their code is a copy of yours, not just a copy of the functionality.

In Google vs Oracle, APIs also aren’t necessarily copyright able:

“So long as the specific code used to implement a method is different, anyone is free under the Copyright Act to write his or her own code to carry out exactly the same function or specification of any methods used in the Java API. It does not matter that the declaration or method header lines are identical”

To sum it up; get a lawyer.

The example with the two light grey horizontal lines is apparently wrong, but I found it by far the easiest to visually compare bar heights, which is the entire point of the chart, no?

The first corona identified. The Wuhan workers got sick around a month before.

They also didn’t find any animal corona samples at the market. Also around 50% of people of the initial cluster had no connection to the market.

Also the hospital where the lab workers were treated was on the corner of this market.

I feel like passion projects can be worth it. You’d want passion, and to attract people who want to work on cool stuff and do difficult or impossible things just because they’re hard or fun.

By that Logic every lawsuit against the government should rule in favour of the government.

Is that what you think happens?

I’d love to play this game
