We were just describing how The Witcher seasons 2/3 how Dandelion really shines, both dramatically and comedically, and then comparing him to Autolycus, King of Thieves as a great sidekick.

“You have the agency to decide how you treat other people you interact with.”

And doing so thoughtfully, with kindness, and respect - which has always been a key message from #Monktoberfest 💗

🔬 "What we observe bserve is not nature herself, but nature exposed to our method of questioning" - Werner Heisenberg

Feels very applicable to neuroscience, and to many ways we measure technical and organizational structures as well. #Monktoberfest always helps you think in new ways.

Can confirm; the Chief Duckinator 😮 uttered these very words in public. Always nice when family still takes you in on your travels to #Monktoberfest.

Wondering about the implications of those of us without any skills in art being able to use AI to create some form of art, no matter how sloppy it is.

Hmm... 🤖 what is the intersections of design patents and media depictions/characters? 📽️

If a hypothetical STARRY WARES major movie came out with a robot star that was clearly based on that patent, is there a legal claim? Or only if the movie also sells toys based on the design? 🤔

Trademarks are very different from copyright - but often confused in non-lawyer circles, so no surprise. 😸

There was a notable 2020 plagarisim (i.e. copyright) case between Parker and Dunn, but that's different.

Trademark policy (which isn't law, just their claims):

Combine with "Sally" by Asimov.

But thinking about clock cycles really changes how you perceive time, especially when telling from a first-sedan perspective. 🚘

Thanks for the article and all your past work on bundler and the Ruby ecosystem. Good luck with the #trademark registration; that's a critical part of keeping an open governance community.
