It depends on the game and what you copy. Games are an utter nightmare when it comes to IP law as so many parts of them cannot be copyrighted. Game rules for example cannot be copyrighted, nor can the concept itself. Some things can be copyrighted or trademarked. You cannot use the following: Names Written elements- wh...

Strict liability in tort (for money damages in a lawsuit) is generally imposed when there are good reasons for someone to be responsible notwithstanding a lack of personal fault (and sometimes there are "back door" fault aspects). Some of the common categories in the U.S. are: Strict liability of an employer or princip...

I am not familiar with the technical details of what you are talking about but I can offer some legal context. A copyright owner can licence different people on different licence terms. Unless someone is given an exclusive license (in which case it has to be, you know, exclusive) there can be multiple licences and thos...

The General Rule In practice, the only time when self-defense against a police officer is legal is when you do not know and have no reasonable way that you could have known that the person attacking you is a police officer.

"The Holy See owns all copyrights in the works published under its name or created on its commission (art. 5)."

The crucial phrase is " in ihrer Eigenschaft als Mitglieder ". This restricts the prohibition on receiving benefits from the gGmbH to benefits you'd receive because you are a partner.

First off, just because no cash changes hands, doesn't mean that a service is "free." There is only a contract if there is an exchange of value. For example, if I give you my bicycle, there is no contract. If I give you my bicycle in exchange for $1, then there is a contract. The data storage facility in this case is n...

It certainly sounds like it. They suddenly changed their minds about interviewing you when they found out about your condition without giving a good reason.

There is no country where it is common for attorneys to represent clients who are not identified.

Although the term acquis is very commonly (almost always?) used to refer to EU precedent, the word roughly translates as "that which has been agreed" and there's no reason that other legal communities can't use it to refer to their own body of previous decisions.

There is no general right to download a copy of a book. You may acquire such a right from the rights-holder when you buy a physical book, but otherwise that would be illegal copyright infringement.

tl; dr: Maybe, maybe not, but trouble seems likely. Your text files are clearly derived from Dr. Seuss' books, so you normally need the permission of the copyright holder of the books.

Jurors cannot directly disqualify each other. However, they can inform the trial judge if they have reason to believe that one of their peers should be discharged.

No, such a restriction is not effective. The Supremacy Clause of the Constitution, and other sections as well, provides otherwise.

The order of operations is important I assume that plaintiff filed for a Protective Order. To get this granted, the plaintiff has to allege some kind of wrongdoing and evidence of that. If the defendant responds, then the plaintiff can amend their filing. Then the defendant once more can respond to the allegations. If ...

In the US, the burden of proof in a civil case is distinct from that in a criminal case (it is true that in European systems, the plaintiff must prove their claims beyond reasonable doubt, but we're talking about US law here). The particular statute, RCW 46.63.075 , does somewhat favor the state as plaintiff, stating t...

The process of collecting a judgment once you win one is really no different in small claims court than it is in any other court, and as you note, it isn't easy. You may decide that once you have won, that it is easier to turn the judgment over to a collection agency or an attorney to collect (admittedly at a price). O...

Why might Martin Shkreli's lawyer announce to the public that Shkreli's not making any more statements? To try to get the media to leave Shkreli alone, which Shkreli might appreciate. That is one valid motivation for making such an announcement.

The resolution in Connecticut is a statement that has been agreed by the state's legislature, but is not a law. If it were, it would indeed need to be signed by the Governor, by virtue of Article 4, Section 15 of the state Constitution. It exonerates the victims insofar as it expresses the current legislature's disappr...

The primary reason for involuntary commitment is that a person poses a threat to themselves or others . This is usually intentionally broad, but can be taken to mean suicidal, delusional or homicidal tendencies, or other personality disorders that make a person a threat. There are usually provisions for holding a perso...

As Mark's answer indicates, you are evidently thinking of the Full Faith and Credit Clause . "Public acts" being laws, it may seem at first glance that states must fully respect the laws of other states. But the interpretation of this clause by the courts is rather different, and has evolved a bit over time. The short ...

If three people inherited a house in equal shares, then a new deed should have been prepared and filed with the appropriate governmental authority (the county in most US states) before probate is closed. When that is done the authority of the executors over the house as executors has ended. However, if I understand you...

The United States even allows private ownership of tanks and howitzers with only fairly modest regulation, although the demand is small and some sort of license is required. Most U.S. regulations would be at the state and local level. It is rare for state governments to place regulatory barriers on the ownership of wha...

Law Stack Exchange — Training, unified schema

A seeded sample of ymoslem/Law-StackExchange, made into retrieval training pairs and reshaped into the strict schema shared by every dataset in this collection. One of the 15 domain sources (code, medical, science, finance, legal) added to the collection's general sources.

Schema

config columns rules
queries id: string, text: string ids unique and non-empty; every query has ≥ 1 qrel
corpus id: string, title: string, text: string title is always present ("" when the source has none)
qrels query-id: string, corpus-id: string, score: int32 referential integrity to both tables; no duplicate pairs; no floats
hard-negatives query-id: string, corpus-id: string, rank: int32, source: string one row per negative; (query-id, corpus-id, source) unique; never a labelled positive of the same query
teacher-scores query-id: string, corpus-id: string, teacher: string, score: float32 one row per scored pair (positives included); a row means scored — never a placeholder

Files are Parquet, sorted by id, zstd-compressed, sharded at 500 MB. Every rule above is checked before publishing; provenance.json records the source revision, what changed, and the output file hashes.

What changed from the source

  • sampled: a seeded random sample (seed 1) of up to 25,000 pairs
  • reshaped: the question title and body (HTML removed, at most 2,000 characters) are the query, the highest-scored answer (HTML removed, at least 40 characters) the document
  • decontaminated (exact): a pair was dropped when its normalised query equals any evaluation query, or a positive equals a document of a test or dev corpus; a repeated query keeps its first pair
  • decontaminated (near-duplicates): 5 passages that nearly copy an evaluation document some evaluation query judges relevant, and 4 queries that nearly copy an evaluation query (word 13-grams for passages, 8-grams for queries; at least half shared with one text of the 23 test sets (BEIR, RTEB, LitSearch) or the 6 dev sets) were removed, and with them 9 queries in total; near copies of evaluation-corpus documents that no evaluation query judges relevant were kept
  • text: leading and trailing whitespace stripped; otherwise as converted above
  • ids re-keyed to sha1(text)[:20]: 0 documents and 0 queries collapsed into identical texts
  • added a title column filled with "" (the source has none)

Hard negatives and teacher scores

Filled by the collection's annotation pipeline (annotation=jina35). Interim: the candidates are final, the teacher scores are still to come.

  • Candidates: dense retrieval with jinaai/jina-embeddings-v5-text-small over this corpus to depth 1,000; 100 candidates per query drawn from the rank windows 1–30 (30), 31–100 (30), 101–300 (20), 301–1000 (20), the query's labelled positives excluded. rank is the dense rank; source is dense for a mined row and dataset for a negative the source labels itself.
  • Teacher scores: none yet. teacher-scores holds 0 rows until the jinaai/jina-reranker-v3.5 scores (listwise, as in the other repositories) are filled in; datasets cannot return a 0-example split, so read that file with pyarrow / pandas meanwhile. The candidates stay.
