  1. This is why standards orgs use open patents on EU Court Rules APIs, Programming Languages Not Copyrightable · · Score: 1

    It is very difficult to have a standard if no one can use it, and if it is to be taught in an educational institution it should be a standard. That is why a "big evil" company like Microsoft would sign something like the osp. They want their code to become a standard, and by retaining control of just the platform specific binaries and visual studio they keep control of their favorite platform while allowing small projects like mono to exist. A similar approach would work well for java, as I am sure android has created thousands of new awesome java developers which can only be good for the platform. Instead they scare away the developers by threatening the while android platform with a lawsuit.

    My first comic was a 90s deadpool I got in a showbag. The characters were so different to anything I had ever seen before, it instantly dispelled the myth that comics were just for children. Years later I picked up cable and deadpool, and then iron man, cap, Thor..... Now I pretty much read everything.

  7. Re:Marvel has a kid friendly imprint on Ask Slashdot: Which Comic Books To Start My 3-Year-Old With? · · Score: 1

    The imprint was originally marvel age and is then marvel adventures. It is/was a fantastic way to introduce kids of all ages to comics and I highly recommend it. Spiderman was one of the best titles.
