Nah, just…make them work regular hours for a pay of an ordinary employee. They could take extra hours to earn more and demonstrate to everyone how to “work hard and earn big”. This will be cruelest punishment they can get.
Oh, and put them on a KPI and control their work productivity.
I appreciate your desire for more nuance, and I support it throughout discussions.
But the case of Bill Gates is fairly clear-cut. His philanthropy efforts are covering for shitty business practices and tax evasion.
This is one of the reasons why people are concerned about billionaire philanthropy in the first place. It creates a good image of a savior, while serving to reduce taxes and cover for malicious investments. We would be much, much better off taking this in form of taxes and actually allocating it for good.
Not winning a race to the bottom doesn’t make someone good or decent, though
Any any good person wouldn’t become a billionaire in the first place.
Even libertarians, who are on the exact opposite side economically, agree IP is garbage made and manipulated to enrich the few.

Polyethylene glycol. Widely used in several biotechnological processes and research.
Simple. Star Wars has 6 episodes, and that’s it. The rest is odd fan fiction that happens to be filmed in Hollywood. Now, enjoy!
Fair, but I thought they may have some alternative route to get their credit
Interesting, the more I know!
Might teach my family diabetic’s cat some tricks, lol
I wonder - how exactly does this work?
For all I know, service dogs primarily help blind people or those with severe mental health issues.
The former must make working in a lab near impossible as most things are observed visually and also making an organized spot for a blind researcher must require thorough preparation and heavy assistance for every experiment. The latter might behave unpredictably, which doesn’t pair well with a lab environment, and might prompt the dog to rush to support without minding the environment, amplifying the issue.
Also, dog is an animal, and while they can be trained to behave well, they are unlikely to remember all safety rules, especially in a critical situation where they need to focus on aiding the owner.
I might be wrong by all points, since I didn’t ever see service dogs in a lab environment, and don’t commonly see them around, but I come from a point of genuine interest.

The dude has just seen one tune go viral and decided “why not make ALL of my music exactly like this?”
While it might be a tough decision, I wholeheartedly welcome it.
Community-driven projects should be managed by the community, and I fully trust the Mastodon nonprofit to lead this part of the Fediverse into the future.
Good luck on this new stage, Eugen. And congratulations to all Mastodon users.
The thing is, every instance is its own server (virtual or physical). If it uses Cloudflare services somewhere, well…
If it uses some other stack, it’ll be just fine. Neither of the two instances I’m on seem to use Cloudflare and hence the experience was uninterrupted for me.
I cannot express how much peace of mind switching to Linux has granted me.
“Windows now has this horrible feature! Windows now breaks user experience! Windows has ads shoved everywhere!”
And here I am, comfortably sipping my cup of tea and watching the world burn from afar.

Honestly, I’d rather not have copyright at all. The problem is not that copyright law doesn’t apply, it’s that a particular kind of wealthy businessmen are shifting our policies to fit their needs.
