Now all they have to do is remove the prior art clauses and were in patent utopia.
Unfortunately for you, you'll have to wait 14 years, or pay me royalties, because I am now gonna go patent the removal of prior art clauses from patent law!
...because this is the same behavior that people will exhibit if there is a security guard working the desk downstairs. Anyone who makes it into the building has free reign to wander around and steal stuff if they have the right expression on thier face.
Basically, bring a bunch of laptops to court. Give one to each jusry member, the prosecution and the judge. Then send them each an html email with the "evidence" photos embedded and have them each check thier email. Now simply point out that everyone in the courtroom is currently "guilty" of the same crime you are being prosecuted for. Nobody would find you guilty after such a simple demonstation, and even if you actually *are* found guilty at the end, you can file for an appeal and win on the technicality that all the jurors were also guilty of the same crime as you. There has to be some conflict of interest going on there, right?
Other scientists are unsure whether methane on Mars even exists.
While many philosophers are unsure whether Mars exists at all, or if it's just a figment of thier imagination.
I'm interested to find out...

I'm curious how this affects the "trust level" of people who were previously burned, especially by the person you are expected to trust. Is it just automatic, or do you still have some ability to balance it... If not, this could turn out to be the holy grail for all kinds of good and evil purposes.
You had to walk 2 miles uphill to the rock quarry and cut another one. Kids these days.
Rocks!? You had it lucky! We had to compress young , hot stars into premature supernovas, with our bare hands, just so we could fusion up enough silicon to MAKE rocks. And BY GOD, we liked it!
Its the same thing with Battlestar Galactica. People watched the show because the show was good, not because of BitTorrents. The vast, vast, vast majority of the people who tuned into the show did so not because of some guy who watched it on a BitTorrent and told his buddies, but because of a highly hyped miniseries, multiple magazine articles, a featurette in TV Guide, commericials out the ying-yang, billboards, print ads, and yes, even word of mouth of those who watched the show legally (which are probably 2-3 orders of magnitude higher than those who downloaded it via BitTorrent).
I'm a person. I live in Japan. There were ZERO adverts for this show ANYWHERE to be seen around here. I watched all of the episodes via bittorrent because somone told me that it was good. I have told about 50 more people to watch it. So, I've got one datapoint at least that says you are wrong.
If it's not on cable (i.e. broadcast via normal radio waves OR sattelite) and it's being broadcast in an area near ME, then you have nothing to worry about... I own the rights already, and I feely allow you to redistribute the content.
You see my body has an EULA. In order to pass radio waves through it, you must agree to the EULA. This EULA states that you transfer the intellectual property rights to all your content (radio & teleivion are specified) to me for a perior of 347 years from the date of using my body as a transport medium.
f they were really so dangerous, they wouldn't be sending these things out to these kinds of labs
That's kind of the point. You see, it's like this... I send a box full of suitcase-nukes to walmart, because I THOUGHT I was sending the box of boring old samsonite deluxe suitcases...
It gets posted on slahdot and you respond, "My wife works in a walmart that got one of these. They're just regular suitcases sold by regular employees. If they were really so dangerous, they wouldn't be sending these things out to these kinds of storess (just your friendly local walmart), especially since the stores are literally surrounded by rednecks (in the same building)."
It was not immediately clear why the 1957 pandemic strain, which killed between 1 million and 4 million people -- was in the proficiency test kits routinely sent to labs.
Because now, through the magic of natural selection, we will have only the BEST biotech engineers and doctors. In college it's often called the "weeding out" process.

This morning I had one of the most peaceful commutes in quite a while. I attribute it fully to the conductor, urging us at every stop to "Step aside, let others off before you get on. If you can't fit on the train there is another train right behind this one."
Something about what you said struck a chord... I live in Tokyo, and the default, accepted behavior is to step to either side of the door and let people rush off before attempting to get on. I guess I'm so used to this now that I kind of figured it was the standard protocol. So in NY does everyone just crowd the doors, inside and out, side and have at it once they open?

I left Japan about 3 months ago. mp3 cell-phones were already around for, what, a year already at that point? Geez, Jobs, great innovation.

"I am sick of people adding "ize" to the end of words to make them verbs."
In short, you hate when people verbize stuff.
He'd just prefer people used the word "Hyperv".

e17 will be years ahead of its time when it is finished.
Unfortunately, e17's *release* will be, at some point during those "years ahead of it's time too", so it'll actually be right on time.
