Another piece covering US judge ruling on AI books theft. :V
I’m really sick of this. What happend is that AI company bought books second hand, teared apart page by page and then scaned it for their AI.
So yeah. From now on if you buy yourself a movie in DVD, rip it’s content, burn the dvd, pass binary through AI and share the AI parsed content with other people everything seems to be legal.
Well I’ll write a good blog post about how to do it soon. Stay in touch.

Piracy is leagal as long as you use it to train #AI.
Ok but actually this made me think. Since the curtain is down now and big tech do not need to pretend that they care about privacy, human rights, intelectual property the shit can go downhill really fast.
I really hope that USA will wake up since this will only create more inequality.

I started a small research project on how to use microservices that communicate with each other. Since most of them are written in Java, I had to conduct some research on process communication using methods other than HTTP.
This article shows how to use Unix domain sockets for process communication.
