  • I’m cautiously optimistic, he said we’ll let the chips fall and let the oversight committee do their job. Also that the priority is the economy, cost of living and corruption.

    So in a round about way he said that if that’s where the chips fall, impeachment will happen but that it’s not going to be their top priority.

    But I’ll have to see it to believe it cause these guys…ugh.

    • mL and cc are the same thing.
    • 1 Liter is equal to 1dm³ (which no one uses really but it doesn’t matter since the equivalency is at mL = cc
    • a grain of rice is about 0.02 gr so idk where you got that from. Weights were manufactured originally as was the meter (platinum cylinder and bar respectively, the originals are still in a museum in Paris)
    • weight is now based off the Planck constant and the meter is based off the speed of light. (2019)
    • Calorie, while metric is not an SI unit, that would be the joule.
    • the SI uses a hodgepodge of units and not all metric, they are however, all based off of natural constants.
    • A yard is just as arbitrary as anything else, it was a rod made somewhere around the 1500’s and was kept in London. Nowadays much like any other imperial unit, the sizes are based off their metric counterparts. is 1yd = 0.9144m exactly.
    • Metric time has been attempted (1000 ticks in a day) didn’t work super well. But like I said theres a ton of non metric units in the SI.


  • Y’all are missing the bigger picture here. This brings up the question of ai and intellectual property and throws the ball into adobe’s court to set their army of lawyers on figuiring out a no-win solution for themselves.

    • If they do nothing, a working clone normalizes copying their product’s behavior and UI. Copyright covers that thinly anyway (the First Circuit in Lotus v. Borland treated a command menu hierarchy as an unprotectable method of operation). Trademarks need policing!! (And they suck)
    • If they go after it, they have to argue in court that AI output built from public material is infringing or derivative. That’s the precedent the AI industry wants to avoid, and it cuts against Adobe’s own Firefly pitch. Imagine what that means for “art” made with an LLM
    • If the clone’s code is mostly AI-written, its copyrightability is shaky (Copyright Office, Thaler). But that cuts both ways: Adobe can’t claim “you stole our code” without proving actual copied code. Which bites into OpenAI, Anthropic, Google’s claims that they haven’t stolen anything.

    Edit: Sorry I should’ve used Super Intelligence, I don’t want to be the enemy. /s
