Why is it that an author can refer to a trademarked product in a book at their whim, but when that book gets adapted into a film or television show the product cannot be included without approval of the trademark owner?

The claim "PyMOL-RS is a clean-room rewrite" of #PyMol, at https://github.com/zmactep/pymol-rs is clearly wrong. The Rust code refers to PyMol filenames and function names. It has code structurally similar to PyMol's. It contains comments like "This is a faithful port of PyMOL's `ccealignmodule.cpp`" -- with quoted PyMol source code!

I am looking to hear from textual scholars who are editing the work of an author who could be considered ‘problematic’ within a 21C context for their views on gender, sexuality and race.

"#GitHub Actions Is Slowly Killing Your Engineering Team"
#Azure over GitHub. Yes, they managed to make something worse. Much worse.

For fans of #Steam games where you can build -really- broken mechanics like Balatro or Slay the Spire (#deckbuilders, #roguelikes, etc. - "Make the numbers go UP!"), LOOTPLOT has been *extremely* satisfying for me
It's like: "what if Incredible Machine, but Ballionaire" - you randomly get access to a bunch of items that each have their own mechanics and trigger/play off each other, which you build out on a grid - but the grid itself can be manipulated by the items. Some of the interactions are absolutely wild.

I love what Tauri has done, a lightweight version of Electron, where you author the backend code in Rust.
But while I love Rust, I do not love it for app building, and I wanted to have that HTML-model for programming but available in Swift.
I used assorted AI tools to port Tauri to Swift (it still reuses the big chunks of code from Tauri), but now you can write HTML desktop apps in Swift:

I read that we lost the ability to stay focused reading long articles. And I believe it is partially true.
I also believe that books that could’ve been at best an article are these days 300 pages. And articles that might communicate an idea vaguely are now thousands of words long for the sake of art (and for the author to get paid as I assume filling in a site or magazine with short articles would be more expensive).

Would you take the bigger share? Study shows people can learn to say no

"Here we ask whether people can learn to punish advantageous inequity merely by observing the inequity-averse preferences of anot…

When the IT Department arm themselves

As an editor, I love it when an author takes the feedback we provide and engages deeply with it. This doesn't necessarily mean doing everything we ask - there are sometimes very good reasons for pushing back. I appreciate the humility involved in the exercise but watching a piece turn from not bad into something smarter, more incisive, better informed, and ultimately good if not great is the best part.

Nope.
The fact that a garbage argument is made by someone who *should* know better does absolutely nothing to redeem it.
I have no interest in interacting with people whose only argument for (or against) an idea is the credentials of the author. That's how you get a Catholic Church or a Communist Party. #NMK.

Neanderthal DNA is largely missing from the human X chromosome.

The ancestors of modern humans and the closest related species, the Neanderthals, diverged, forming two distinct groups, about 600,000 years ago.
