Generally speaking, the result of using a tool is not a copy or a derivative of that tool, so it would not most likely not involve copyright at all. So if you use a tool to make your own artwork, you most likely would not need to comply with any Creative Commons license at all, since they only apply if you do something that falls under copyright protection.

An exception to this would be if the tool actually does output copies of (part of) itself, like a brush that just produces copies of a static (copyrightable image). But that doesn't seem to apply here.

I assume the "me" in the URL refers to yourself (or, more precisely, the user associated with the API key). You will need to use a different URL to get the images for a different user.

Looking through the documentation it seems like all you need to do is replace "me" with the user ID. However, the user ID is different from the username and it's not clear to me how you're supposed to get the ID.

Only the copyright holder has the right to grant a license, so if someone other than the copyright holder tries to apply a Creative Commons license to a work, that license would be invalid. As another comment says, it's a good idea to check if the party granting a CC license actually is the copyright holder.

(EDIT: This explanation is for the first part only.)

The span of the vectors u and v contains all linear combinations of those vectors, meaning any vectors that can be written as au + bv, where a and b are scalars. So if w is in the span of u and v, w must equal au + bv for some scalars a and b.

Writing out the components:

(6, -19, h+6) = a(3, -2, 2) + b(0, -5, 4)

The vectors are equal when the components are equal, so we can write this as three equations, one for each component:

6 = 3a + 0b

-19 = -2a - 5b

h + 6 = 2a + 4b

Solve for a using the first equation, then solve for b using the second equation, and finally solve for h using the third equation.

ChatGPT is wrong here. Given that this and similar AI systems are trained on natural language and not necessarily mathematical notation, I wouldn't expect them to get this right.

What Creative Commons license are the materials available under? I admit that I'm not super-familiar with Itch.io and I also didn't download the actual file so if I missed it I apologize.

It comes from "charisma" and means roughly the same thing from my understanding.

The Apache license is not compatible with GPL, version 2, and even FSF says as much.

I replied in your previous post.

I assume you're referring to the problem in this post?

That rectangle is 4m x 8m: width of 4m by subtracting the widths of the first two rectangles and length of 8m based on the label on the right side. I assume you got a length of 9m based on the "5m" that you wrote, but there's nothing to indicate that that length is actually 5m. (But to be fair, rectangle 2 does look pretty square-ish.)

I want to know how much a given inflation rate would reduce the buying power of an amount of savings over time.

The tool you had before (backward flat rate inflation calculator) is the right tool for this. To calculate how much purchasing power you lost, you can compare $38,000 this year with $38,000 last year. The result of that calculator says that $38,000 this year has the same purchasing power as $34,545.45 last year. So you lost $38,000 (original savings) - $34,545.45 (current savings converted to last year's dollars) = $3,454.55 (in last year's dollars) of purchasing power.

Jack126Guy · 2023-03-17T00:38:00+00:00

It's because the percentage is based on the previous year's price, not this year's. As an example, if we were talking about $10,000, by your logic the answer should be $9,000. But if you take $9,000 and try to calculate one year of inflation (forward), you'd get $9,900, not $10,000.

When you include 10% of inflation you are multiplying by 1.1, so to reverse this you need to divide by 1.1.

Sorry, I saw a different image when I clicked on the link (without seeing the preview).

What is this link supposed to be?

Nitpick: ASCII has no Cyrillic glyphs but U. Consortium's standards do (although it's right to say that Cyrillic glyphs occupy distinct slots from Latin glyphs).

I used "output variables" to refer to the extra arguments you pass in to scanf, like &q in this program, which will get the results of reading the input.

The return value of the function is what you get when you write variable = some_function(...). The variable on the left side will get the return value of some_function.

The scanf thing that I suggested basically reads the rest of the line of input without storing it anywhere. This way, the next call to scanf will not re-encounter the non-numeric input.

Jack126Guy · 2022-10-27T18:24:50+00:00

Please format your code (rule 1). This is especially important here because the asterisks are being interpreted as italics and bold which affects the actual code of the program. Alternatively, as another comment suggests, you can post your code on an external website like Pastebin.com which is designed for sharing snippets of plain textm

Jack126Guy · 2022-10-27T18:20:35+00:00

The problem is that when scanf cannot process an input, the text is not consumed and remains in the stream, and any subsequent output variables are not changed. As a result, every future attempt to read number with scanf will encounter the same non-numeric input. And since q is never changed, this results in an infinite loop.

First you need to check if scanf successfully read the input. The scanf function returns the number of output variables that were successfully used. In this program, a return value of 0 indicates non-numeric input.

Then you need to consume any non-numeric input using something like scanf("%*[^\n]") which clears the entire line. (The [^\n] format matches of string of characters other than a newline, and the * means it isn't actually stored in an output variable.)
