quote [ For that reason, it was chosen as the game to show off the PS2?s backwards compatibility. There was only one problem: sometimes it froze in emulation.
It goes without saying that there?d be big trouble if the game locked in the middle of the demo in front of such a large audience. Unfortunately, I hadn?t nailed down what was causing these freezes to happen. ] Oh that poor person! Nice insights on how jobs get appointed at Sony though: seemingly a mixture of faith and pressure. And a nice job of the translator.

quote [ "Under copyright law, numbers are facts, and under copyright law, facts either have thin copyright, almost no copyright, or no copyright at all," Riehl explained in the talk. "So maybe if these numbers have existed since the beginning of time and we're just plucking them out, maybe melodies are just math, which is just facts, which is not copyrightable." ]
I was just talking about the possibility of something like this 5 days ago. The fun thing is I was talking about trying to implement something like this on old SE more than 15 years ago but storage capabilities were far out of reach. Technological advancements makes scarcity of IP obsolete. This is what post scarcity looks like. This same brute force concept can be applied to images, movies, books code, etc. AI will simply streamline the process more efficiently.
TLDR; IP is now officially theft of The Commons. Though I'm sure a court case will tell us that actually math is illegal or something. Again.

quote [ As an experiment, Mosley shared the account with her cousin, who lived out of state.
That's when she and her friends realized the shared account could be used to obscure their data from Instagram's tracking. ] This is a cool story. Aren't Uber divers turning off their phones collectively to rise the fee, too?
