The best you can do is get your company to agree that it is okay for you to put a BSD-style license on it and share it with the community. As long as it not special-sauce kind of code, they may actually agree. I've done this myself.
But don't count on ever making any extra side-money for work you've done on their dime.

If you totally ignore what they did to Picard's character, I would agree.Watch the RedLetterMedia for a thorough accounting of what they did to Picard.
> we just need to look at how often the patent database is used by inventors as a resource when they're looking for solutions to problems they have.
This has probably been brought up before, but typically companies will instruct their people to _not_ look at existing patents. The reason for this is that if they do create something that is similar to an existing patent, they can justifiably claim ignorance and avoid the treble damages associated with 'willful infringement'.
>then the photographer owns the copyright. I don't see how that can be undone.
It can't. The problem is that there is (generally) no model release form. Posting photos anywhere would require written content of the model. I'm surprised I haven't heard of any cases using this idea. Or am I missing something.
>Actually (to answer the AC), Wesley Crusher was the annoying one, mostly due to the Mary-Sue-ing scriptwriters
The glut of Wesley episodes (many substandard) came about like this: A writer writes a WC episode that's well received so producers tell writers to whip up some more. Writers' Strike comes along and all they have all these WC scripts which end up getting aired as a result. Or something like that.
We have different "languages": Legalese, Tech speak, memes, Diplomatic speak. I would expect that such would be the case here. The metaphor speak may be their formal form. At least, that's my take on it.
Favorite episodes: The Inner Light, Best of Both Worlds, Family
I am a self-admitted troll but I do it for the lulz, never maliciously. There are different kinds of trolls and this study does not differentiate between them, unfortunately.
There are times where "double jeopardy" (seemingly) does not apply. Specifically, if a judge is corrupt and has been paid off to throw a case for a defendant, the case can be tried again once the corruption has been revealed. This admittedly is a borderline situation but it does happen.
Not true. There is a civil case ini the northeast where somebody is suing the police on 3rd amendment grounds. The police wanted to use this guys house as a part of some police operation. He refused but the cops intruded anyway and the guy got arrested.
Even if Windows has this caching turned off, the root problem is that USB devices lie. This causes huge problems with ZFS making USB drives virtually unusable with this filesystem. No problems with e-sata or firewire, however.
USB drives may often lie about committing code with an fsync and claim that the data has hit the disk before it actually has. This can cause ZFS' always valid on disk guarantees to become invalidated.

As a former IT guy/hacker/geek I cheer the results of what Snowden has provided and will provide (the scope is incidental). It makes the world a better place. It does not matter to me how he acquired the information that is being revealed. I draw the line at torture, but it is apparent, so far, that he did not water-board anybody while he was living in Hawaii.

I think this would be a good use-case for an airframe parachute http://cirrusaircraft.com/innovation/airframe-parachute/.
If you include works of fiction, Cryptonomicon should be required reading.
And when even self-driving self-owned cars turn out to be a detriment to the self-driving public transportation, welp...
My uncle has a country place that no one knows about
He says it used to be a farm before the Motor Law
It's just ZFS. It used to stand for "Zettabyte File System" but that was dropped years ago.

Wait...
I was expecting a systemd joke here.

Are the Myth Busters going to have to find another giant hangar for their large scale experiments?
This matters much more than Google getting a price break on some jet fuel.
Steve Jobs may have been many things, but Pablo Picasso is not one of them.

The CoS is concerned with a profit not the Prophet.
X is no longer used by the MPAA. They switched over to NC-17 in the late '80s. The first film with that designation was Henry & June in 1990.
