It looks like the lawyer is arguing it saved them a day or two and that since google is making $3 million a day on android that that is $6 million google wouldn't have had if they didn't steal rangeCheck. The judge then points out that as you say... it saved 5 seconds.
Router buffers, and full routing buffers is a bad thing, they're talking about buffering your packets, not buffering the contents of your disk. Here, I found you a good article to read about bufferbloat http://queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?id=2209336
Then the libraries that aren't android specific are based on the Apache harmony project so affidavits from Google engineers would be quite useless there.
I touched on the libraries in my original post as well.
As I understand tje JAVA lic, and perhaps I'm mistaken, but it seems pretty clear that Sun lic the programming language for free but retained the lic and copyright on the implementation of the language itself.
I'm not sure how this would be relevant. Last I checked neither android nor the android SDK implement a java compiler at all. They rely on the JDK for compiling. They do static binary translation from JVM byte code to Dalvik byte code.
There are some fairly large differences between Dalvik (the vm in android) and the JVM from sun/oracle/whoever. Namely the Dalvik instruction set is register based whereas java is stack based. You can easily have any engineer look at the code for the Dalvik vm itself and see there is quite a difference. Then the libraries that aren't android specific are based on the Apache harmony project so affidavits from Google engineers would be quite useless there. Now the question to me wouldn't be in Android itself but is the Android SDK truly clean room. There's a static re-compiler to recompile JVM bytecode to Dalvik bytecode. My guess is the SDK is clean room itself but Schmidt being honest about android being clean room isn't so unlikely but it is quite possible this is doublespeak and the SDK itself (hey it's not "Android") could very well be based on Sun IP. The relevant stuff I've seen in this court case hasn't related to so much lifted code as it was patents which is quite difficult to avoid infringing just by not seeing code.
When I applied for clearance they told me anyone who refused they would just get a warrant for. But I was also told by those people there's no way they would refuse with or without a warrant.
I've said it before and I'll say it again and again and again. The release was insanely successful. This is a small crew with a fairly limited budget. They essentially sank all the cash they had into the first 250k and I am amazed that they still came together and are going to be able to get the first batch out without a major delay. I'm guessing licensing to these two companies had something to do with it. With no pre-orders how are they going to give preferred status to the early orders? The first 10k people get theirs shipped first so yeah they got preferred status. Do you mean the mailing list? It took them days to send out all of the emails it ended up being impossible they had over 100k people on the mailing list and only 10k boards.
When apple sells out of iPhones for a month its a huge success, when this tiny company sells out a quarter of a year already its a huge fail... I don't think so this release has been insanely successful the only thing they could have done better is if they had more cash to set up the initial shipment better but alas the money tree crop hasn't been doing so well for the world lately and for a tiny group of people doing something to save the world they did damned good.
That said, I've held a security clearance, and known people with even higher security ratings; and even the Feds don't go demanding to see your Facebook profile. This shit is ridiculous.
Haha that seems a bit naive. Just because they don't demand you show them your profile doesn't mean they don't have Facebook show them your profile. I use to work at a prison and the Lt Col over me would tell me stories of when he use to do security clearance checks. Most of the people he interviewed didn't even know he was interviewing them.
My past two employers I know have admin or otherwise secure pages that I can almost guarantee haven't changed their passwords. If I were asked that question, I would have to admit that technically I do have a "backdoor", but it's not MY backdoor nor was it anywhere within my control to change the credentials to it. Or I could just lie and say I don't have access, but then starting off an career with a company with a lie isn't exactly putting your best food forward either.

I see a lot of people who've never used facetime. It's actually pretty nice especially if you have small children. You can flip it so its using the rear camera instead of the front camera so in the middle of talking to someone suddenly they're looking at the baby and you can still see them. Sure you could turn the device around instead but try it its actually pretty danged convenient.
At the prison I worked at if they didn't place an attorney call properly (including notifying the shift supervisor) then it was recorded and listened to. If they are using an illegal cell phone to place an attorney call improperly I'd be surprised if they could make any complaint when it was recorded. Of course acting on the information obtained from the call is a whole different matter.
They're talking about the requirements to call the phone you build an android phone. In order to do so you MUST have full adb compatibility which includes the capability to do "adb install" and install an application on a non rooted phone. You MUST allow non market apps on your phone in order to call it an android phone. Read the specific sections I quoted carefully. Any device you can't "adb install" an apk onto is NOT an android phone, no arguing about it it point blank isn't.
The config flag at&t changes still lets you run android programs, but if you were to disable adb install functionality, you would lose android market and the ability to brand your device with the "Android" name. Hence your device is no longer an android device. Does it make sense to you now? If not try going back and reading the links I linked you to. And remember an android device MUST be able to run non market apps in order to be an android device, otherwise it's just a Linux device running Dalvik.
Except A) you can still install non market apps on an at&t android phone through sideloading and B) if they truly disabled that ability they would lose their license to call it android see CTS FAQ at http://source.android.com/faqs.html#compatibility
Is compatibility mandatory?
No. The Android Compatibility Program is optional. Since the Android source code is open, anyone can use it to build any kind of device. However, if a manufacturer wishes to use the Android name with their product, or wants access to Android Market, they must first demonstrate that the device is compatible.
6. Developer Tool Compatibility
Device implementations MUST support the Android Developer Tools provided in the Android SDK. Specifically, Android-compatible devices MUST be
compatible with:
â Android Debug Bridge (known as adb) [Resources, 23]
Device implementations MUST support all adb functions as documented in the Android SDK. The device-side adb daemon SHOULD be inactive
by default, but there MUST be a user-accessible mechanism to turn on the Android Debug Bridge.
Kind of difficult to legally call your device android if you can't adb install apps on the device and while using the SDK might seem complicated to install apps some help full developers made the Android Sideload Wonder Machine (http://forum.androidcentral.com/android-sideload-wonder-machine/) to solve that problem.
Sorry but android wins on the front of being able to install non market apps no matter how you slice it. Since in order to call your device an android device you MUST include functionality to install non market apps.
Most manufacturers don't disable the ability to install non market apps, in fact they can't disable it and call it an android phone. At&t does hide it though and require the somewhat onerous approach of installing the sdk and attaching it to your computer to sideload non market apps, however this is an at&t thing not the manufacturers.
Weird, I use to work at a prison and there literally was a big yellow line with signs saying once you cross it certain constitutional rights went out the window. They arrested visitors almost daily with what would otherwise be an unlawful search.

With today's presumably safer and mostly robotic production processes, one would think that watch producers would be allowed to use radium again?
Last I checked repair wasn't robotized.

Not all do. I use total recall call recorder on my galaxy s2 just fine without speakerphone.
Something about a fight with Tanenbaum over microkernels vs monolithic kernels.

That's called a front door.

Yes and Rico was in Military intelligence err I mean Mobile Infantry.
