If anything, it being on Github makes it impossible for them to claim ignorance about the license. If they scrape your code off your site, they'd have to actively add checks to look for the license.
They'd rather just use the "it's probably as fine as every other piece of HTML" assumption they're working with now.
I'm in the US but had a similar thing happen to me when I was first getting credit and had no history. I figured it would be a safe bet to apply for a card with my bank at the time, and they denied me citing my credit score: 0. At the time I just laughed and applied for another card elsewhere, who did actually accept me. After a few months I checked and saw I was assigned a real score somewhere in the low 700s.
I'd understand dropping a score after 10 years without credit, but the 2 in this case is very low.
Similar story here. I once had an assignment which was a part of an art contest with the theme "how to make the world a better place."
I simply took a photo of a tree and gave it the description of "I would make the world a better place by planting more native plants."
I got an award for it and didn't think of it beyond that. Several years later I dated a friend from then, and it turns out I got first place in the entire school. She got second and put in effort with a drawing.
I wouldn't mind if online textbooks had a button on the side that is just a looser search (like what Google was a few years ago).
It'd be handy if I could type in "gravity problem with the bunny" instead of having to either search for "bunny" and flip through all the results, or try to remember/guess the exact wording of the problem.
You probably could still call it AI too, since there's likely some small machine learning model involved in that search.
For some reason I can't find that exact frame, but I believe this is the source. Brut makes good shit. https://youtu.be/InnwzzJa8ek
It also could be a different video from him. Looks like Brut, though.
I'm not saying it'll work. I don't know if the app does anything that necessitates the higher version requirement. It may work perfectly, it may not work at all, or it may work with some things bugging out/crashing. All I'm saying is if you know how to patch your OS, rebuilding the app with a changed target is not going to be very difficult.
My bet is that as of today, recompiling the app with nothing changed except a reduced version requirement will probably work fine. However, over time as features are added or rewritten, it'll get progressively harder to maintain that A7 patch.
Why not both, then?
