The "one module should be written by only one person" dogma is kind of interesting.

But I got to the "my wrapper around SDL supports multiple simultaneous mouse inputs, even though no operating system does" and noped out. YAGNI, even in a large project

> Not sure how cloudflare keeps struggling with issues like these

Cloudflare has a reasonable culture around incident response, but it doesn't incentivize proactive prevention.

Facts aren't copyrightable. Expression is. LLMs reproduce expression from the works they were trained on. The way they are being trained involves making an unlicensed reproduction of works. Both of those are pretty straightforwardly infringement of an exclusive right.

Establishing an affirmative defense that it's transformative fair use would hopefully be an uphill battle, given that it's commercial, using the whole work, and has a detrimental effect on the market for the work.

So toyota made more in net income last quarter alone than nintendo has in net cash, but they're less successful? Seems like a really weird metric.

> Nintendo is Japans most successful company and Sony isn't even in the top 300

by what bizarro metric is Nintendo more successful than Toyota? debt to equity ratio is all you care about?

I get where you're coming from, but describing the fastest production FWD car as the "closest thing" is really funny

harrison ford certainly does

edit - also, I wasn't making a binary claim, the person I was responding to was: "no law". There are more than zero laws relevant to this situation. I agree with you that how relevant is context dependent.

Besides flooding them with junk, what about outright sabotage in the form of serving zip bombs or other ways to waste computational resources?

> So long as the resulting model does not contain copies, it is not infringement

That's not true.

The article specifically deals with training by scraping sites. That does necessarily involve producing a copy from the server to the machine(s) doing the scraping & training. If the TOS of the site incorporates robots.txt or otherwise denies a license for such activity, it is arguably infringement. Sourcehut's TOS for example specifically denies the use of automated tools to obtain information for profit.

Nah, vampire survivors and balatro look like crap by modern standards, yet are breakout hits.

Kafka wrote a lot, and destroyed most of what he wrote.

Seems like a good name for a high-volume distributed log that deletes based on retention, not after consumption.

If it's a fundamental probability thing with randomized partition selection, put the actual probability of what you're describing in the article.

.25^20 is not a "somewhat unlucky sequence of events"

But always protecting the maintainers' best interests over those of users or new contributors ultimately leads to the death of the project.

There's a fairly good chance the reason someone wrote that 10k line PR is because they actually understand the problem users are having, and you don't as a maintainer.
