Example + comment: "This language is designed to grab all rights from a free-lance author or artist. The first clause purports to create a work for hire agreement, which would mean that the author has no rights left at all, ever (and cannot even get them back through the termination right). The second clause takes a belt-and-suspenders approach: if for any reason the work is not for hire -- which it would not be if the commissioned work did not fall within the statutory categories -- the author explicitly assigns all rights not only in this work, but in any work based on this work, for the full term of copyright, for the whole world."

The example is very close to the language of https://d396qusza40orc.cloudfront.net/translations%2FCoursera%20Translator%20TOS.pdf

"This tutorial shows how easy it is to create captions/subtitles files in WebVTT, SRT and DFXP format for subtitling in videos and audios. Depending on the media player you use, you can even provide subtitles in different languages for the same media. Subtitle files are basically text files you can write in Notepad(Win) or SimpleText(Mac)."

"Embedded audios in a website generally display a simple control bar with navigation buttons to play, pause, rewind and so on. While this is great for audio libraries, it can be so much more. In this tutorial, I'll show you step by step how to add a poster image, a watermark and subtitles, using JW player from LongtailVideo."

Rispetto a Google traduttore: Anche Google traduttore offre la lettura audio tramite sintesi vocale, in più lingue, con voci più "umanizzate" e con traduzioni migliori. Però (ed è un grosso però): ImTranslator consente anche il confronto tra varie traduzioni automatiche, ivi compresa quella di Google, e le sue voci "artificiali" consentono un'accelerazione che si avvicina all'alta velocità adoperata dai ciechi per leggere con le orecchie tramite sintesi vocale

"The gatekeeper sees that the man is already dying and, in order to reach his diminishing sense of hearing, he shouts at him, "Here no one else can gain entry, since this entrance was assigned only to you. I'm going now to close it.""

"Chapter 5 There was only one catch and that was Catch-22, which specified that a concern for one's own safety in the face of dangers that were real and immediate was the process of a rational mind. Orr was crazy and could be grounded. All he had to do was ask; and as soon as he did, he would no longer be crazy and would have to fly more missions. Orr would be crazy to fly more missions and sane if he didn't, but if he was sane, he had to fly them. If he flew them, he was crazy and didn't have to; but if he didn't want to, he was sane and had to. Yossarian was moved very deeply by the absolute simplicity of this clause of Catch-22 and let out a respectful whistle. "That's some catch, that Catch-22," he observed. "It's the best there is," Doc Daneeka agreed. p. 55 (p. 46 in Simon & Schuster 2004)"

"By Larry Seltzer for Zero Day | March 24, 2014 -- 19:16 GMT (12:16 PDT) Microsoft announced today that an unpatched vulnerability in Microsoft Word is being exploited in the wild. All versions of Microsoft Word, both Mac and Windows, and several related programs like the Word Viewer and Word Automation Services on Microsoft SharePoint Server are also vulnerable, but the current attacks are directed at Microsoft Word 2010. Exploits such as these are often version-specific, and in targeted attacks, such as this appears to be, the attacker may already know which version he needs to exploit. Microsoft also says that Microsoft Outlook could also be exploited with such an RTF file if Word were set as the viewer for Outlook. In the default configuration Word is the viewer in Outlook 2007, 2010 and 2013."

"This chart was created by Richard Byrne to help teachers quickly identify the blogging service that meets their needs. Note, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are not the same thing. WordPress.com provides hosting for your blog and all of the software necessary to blog. WordPress.org is simply the sofware. The only way to use WordPress.org is own a domain and have a place to host the blog. Self-hosting a WordPress.org blog is the most expensive option and most time-intensive option on this list, but it does give you the most flexibility and control over your blog. "

"0:17 J'ai une question pour vous. 0:20Qui parmi vous a été le premier à l'école toute sa vie ? 0:31 Toute sa vie premier de l'école ? 0:35 Bien. 0:36 - Menteur (Rires) 0:38 Bien, dans exactement 9 minutes et 30 secondes, je vais vous rendre fiers 0:46 de ne pas avoir été tout le temps premier de la classe. 0:49 (Applaudissements) 0:53 Vous allez rentrer ce soir, vous allez dire à votre conjoint, à votre femme, à vos enfants, 0:59 à vos parents et à vos amis : 1:01 « Hamdullah, Dieu merci, je n'ai pas toujours été premier de ma classe ! » 1:08 En 2007, quand j'ai lancé mon blog, j'ai commencé à étudier la vie de plusieurs personnages 1:16 qui ont réussi dans leur vie. 1:23 Et donc chacun a réussi dans son domaine, chacun a réussi d'une façon différente. 1:28 Mais il y avait une chose que partageaient tous ces personnages, une chose 1:32 qui m'a intrigué et, en fait, qui consiste 1:38 en le fait que ces personnes, ces personnages, aucun d'eux n'a vraiment réussi à l'école. 1:47 Et certains parmi eux ont même interrompu leur cursus scolaire 1:54 Et d'autres n'ont même pas accédé à la scolarité 1:57 pendant une longue période. 1:59 Et donc ça m'a un peu inquiété et ça m'a frustré quand je me suis rappellé 2:03 des années où les parents, les professeurs, les enseignants 2:07 nous disaient, il faut travailler dur, il faut avoir les meilleures notes, 2:11il faut être parmi les premiers pour accéder aux meilleures écoles 2:17 et en fin de compte, je constate que la réalité est la suivante : 2:21 qui est que tous ceux qui ont réussi dans l'école de la vie 2:24 n'ont pas forcément été les premiers de la classe."

"Dhawal Shah Oct 15, 2014 Coursera is an education platform that partners with top universities and organizations worldwide to offer courses online for free. It was started by two Stanford professors in late 2011. In less than three years it has reached 10 million students around the world and raised $85 million in venture capital. Why have VCs invested so much money in the company? How does offering free online courses generate revenue? Many have asked, so we examined Coursera's different monetization models and offer estimates based on some known numbers. "

"The Good, the Bad and the Ugly By Florian [Schmidt] On October 8, 2013 The Good, the Bad and the Ugly: Why Crowdsourcing Needs Ethics Abstract This position paper for the workshop CrowdWork 2013 discusses some of the ethical implications of crowdsourcing in general and of contest-based crowd design in particular, especially in regard to the question of fair payment. The paper establishes four different categories of crowdsourcing with separate ethical challenges and argues for the crowd work industry to develop a code of ethics from within, in order to counter the exploitation and abuse that it often enables."
