Getting small details right is something everyone thinks is obvious. But how to achieve it without becoming mired in processes and keeping work going is a skill that is very difficult to cultivate and a very difficult problem to solve. Requiring a lot of clever people skills. Warms my heart to hear stuff like this.

The real test would be to see how much of generated code is similar to the old code. Because then it is still a copyright. Just becsuse you drew mickey mouse from memory doesnt above you if it looks close enough to original hickey mouse.

The author of the blog post has missed the point that Robbie Williams is trying to make in the movie. Its not about math. Math part of the movie is irrelevant. Also its not about someone hiding a talent and getting found, that's a prop too.
Its actually about a person who has been abused all his life finally allowing himself to love himself and allowing others to love him.

Yes. Thats the decision that we need. Right? Do we want to actually make this pseudo political union into a proper political union? Because it is seeming more and more than instead what we will get is break up of the union.

These (and not just limited to elections here now) are exactly the same issues that come up when non-EU migrants want to do stuff in EU. And the argument the OP makes has always been my argument. Fine, you hate migrants, good for you. But what about other Europeans who are getting the short stick with your national rules? No one has a good answer for this.
FWIW: I am a non-EU migrant.
