Then why not use state in Haskell? What parts of OO do you use that you miss in Haskell?

a phone book is edited/curated. information is excluded (people who want their numbers unlisted, etc), as well as ordered (the sorting of the yellow pages into categories). if you make a list of phone numbers that is not identical to the entirety of the phone book, you are not violating copyright. an inclusive list o...

Then explain it? Why would 2011 need pre 1991 data to calculate? Remember this is TZ info, if the TZ was different for a location in nov. 1990 not knowing this changes nothing in its currently location for any date in 2011. If you want to know the exact how long ago a child was born in march of 1990 in that a...

Depends on what you're using it for, I suppose. You could keep most your data cached locally, in memory, and use Google's Cloud SQL as a persistent store. Then the only latency you'll be dealing with is writes.

I don't think that the license conflict can really continue. It's not their kernel and they have to obey the license of Linux. They can't just add their license incompatible code to it and ship it. Maybe they can screw around with the license of the userland tools and probably prevent an inclusion in the mainline kerne...

From what I understand from the claim, it looks like Astrolabe bought the rights from someone else. This probably complicates things further. I think the re-sourcing of US data prior to 1991 is the best way forward, since that is what seems to be affected. However, I do not know how much of a big deal this will be. I...

The answer is many. I often pull apart Android packages to see what they consist of, and all the top shelf applications have multiple .so native libraries embedded. It is possible to create entire applications using the NDK that contain no java at all, but most use a mix.

Sure it does. If the point of the copyright is compilation, i.e. ease of access to a set of data, then acquiring a significant set of your data from that compilation could be equated to violating the copyright. After all, the point of that copyright is that it required work to compile the data; work that was not perf...

That's not the correct way to split the +'es. Considering that c parses greedily, and that ++ binds tighter than +, x+++++x // is actually equivalent to: ((x++)++) + x Which is an error, because a++ requires a to be an lvalue, while the type of the expression (x++) is rvalue, so ((x++)++) is invalid.
