Upon more digging [1], the district court trial is currently scheduled for Feb 27 2023. It'll take a while!

"Web scraping is legal" seems to be an overbroad interpretation - the Ninth Circuit is merely reaffirming a preliminary injunction in light of a recent and separate ruling by the Supreme Court. The opinion [1] only weighs the merits hiQ's request for injunctive relief, and doesn't say anything about the meatier topic of web scraping legality.

I think the real action will be the ruling of the district court.

What do you use the history count for?

Hello, PyMC developer here. We're excited to give Theano a second life, and hope that this work will lend some staying power to the PyMC project in the probabilistic programming world.

As always, we're happy to accept to contributions! If you're looking to get involved, now is a great time. Please don't hesitate to speak up or reach out, either on the Theano-PyMC GitHub repo (https://github.com/pymc-devs/Theano-PyMC) or some other way (my website's in my bio).

One major strength of SQL is its readability - it reads so much like English that a non-technical stakeholder could conceivably understand queries. Do you not find that this is a valuable thing that's lost with relational-algebra-esque syntax?

How do you compensate for the fact that you don't know the codebase that well? I feel like a lot of the value of interviews is that you see how a candidate thinks through a problem that you have also thought deeply about, which gives more fruitful discussions.

Can somebody please clarify - what exactly is this an outage of, and how serious is it?

Yes. They're pretty explicit about this:

> So long as our Founders [...] meet a minimum ownership threshold on the applicable record date for a vote of the stockholders[...], these Founders will effectively control all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders for the foreseeable future. This could delay, defer, or prevent a change of control, merger, consolidation, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets that our other stockholders support. Conversely, this concentrated control could allow our Founders to consummate a transaction that our other stockholders do not support.

Have you considered linking notes from one notebook to another? E.g. if you named each notebook and numbered pages, you could just point to "page X in notebook Y", and wouldn't need to transcribe. Would this be something helpful to you?
