The only argument for getting paid in this article is that sweat deserves a return. That was Marx's labor theory of value. Marx was wrong. You deserve a return only when you efficiently meet someone else's needs. The…
Can't wait for the sequel: "I Think My Patents Should Never Expire"

This has probably been asked before, but is Bitbucket really unlimited? If I encrypt my drive, convert it to ASCII, and upload it, will they host it?
I like your simplified model, and I know random strategies are sometimes helpful. My point was that random strategies are not always helpful. I worry people don't believe this, so let me use a silly outlandish example…
This is a search game. If your opponent constrains himself to a small subset of legal positions to avoid detection, your strategy is working, not failing.
It sounds like Google should be more aggressive with default CSPs.
The phrase "measured on a widely used and scientifically validated personality inventory" jumps out at me. What does that really mean? Myers-Briggs is 'widely used' and proponents would probably argue it has been…
This may be fallout from Google flagging a larger network.
A lot of responses are claiming that patents aren't property, or there isn't public use. 35 U.S.C. § 261 claims that "patents shall have the attributes of personal property." Kelo established the broad reading of…

> "Yeah, ..." There's a difference between saying 'no more software patents from now on,' and 'all those we granted before are automatically invalid.' My take: while the first one is probably ok, the second would…
If NPEs are trolls, that implies 'lacking starting capital' is trollish. Small company locked out of an industry? Troll. Robert Kearns pitched his wiper system to Ford and Chevy, but they preferred to build it without…

Trolls? Still? There are a million definitions for 'patent troll,' and all of them stink, capturing some good activity along with the bad. The problem is the number of junk patents out there (obvious, prior art, etc.).
India has almost 10 times the population: http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=population+of+india+%2F...
Fair question. We had a few video stores that really specialized in the long tail. They sat right across the street from Blockbusters or Hollywood Videos. Stuck around a few decades, thrived on the indie image (sorted…

> DVDs are on their way out... Streaming has a unique disadvantage: you have to haggle with each individual content owner. Yes, it's cheaper to move bits than stuff. Much. But licensing is a pricey hassle. It's a…
Fair point, I was too hyperbolic. I just wanted to emphasize that the 'public posts' metric is not necessarily ideal for a system where "easier private publication" was a showcased feature.
When explaining what is actually permitted, the page will note many texts that ignore the supposed rule. When explaining what is actually forbidden, it will be noted how urgently this should be corrected, as widespread…

Prices float toward the marginal cost of production. Saying that's heading in the wrong direction is like saying that we could make a better plane if we just had less gravity.
P problems are considered 'easy' for computers to solve. NP problems are considered easy for computers to check the answers to them. To improve clarity: 1. Avoid putting pronouns far from the main noun. 2. Use simple…
