How Apple v. Samsung Was Explained To the Jury

jfruh writes "10 jurors have been sworn in for the Apple v. Samsung case, which is at the heart of the ongoing patent disputes over the companies' smartphones. While most Slashdot readers are familiar with many of the facts of the case and the law, the jury is at least in theory supposed to be something of a blank slate. Thus, it's interesting to see the detailed instructions Judge Lucy Koh gave to the jury, covering everything from the differences between utility and design patents to how to measure the credibility of witnesses."

You know, anybody can get the random +5 insightful every 20th post or so on the virtue of nothing more than random statistical chance. The problem is, these fucksticks get high enough karma after a while and end up with 15 mod points every 3 days and bring the rest of the site down. How about karma be awarded only if a percentage of your posts are above a certain moderated threshold? So if every other post hits +3 then you get a point of karma. If you have a long string of 1s then your karma starts to lower some etc. Mod me down if you agree!
