Nothing launched Israel's IT businesses like the US's anti-competitive regulations. We'd never have Allot (and dozens of others) if the US hadn't run off tech, and those that work on it.
But the names were thought up by the parents, so the phonebook should be copyrighted by your definition, because the inputs (names) were creatively created in the first place.
No, if the argument is taken as given, "using" an API is a copyright violation, as it's a copyrighted derivative work of a copyrighted work, unless explicitly licensed.
You are right in your implication that it'd be stupid for the US to implement copyright that way. But it's not FUD. It's the direct and obvious result of the argument given. Of course, the government would refuse to implement it in that manner, as it'd result in the exodus described. Which means the rulings would need to be inherently contradictory, or find that APIs are not copyrightable.
You can just throw money at poverty and at least thereby improve the people's lot.
Nope. But the slumlords they live under will profit well from it. That's the problem with throwing money at the problem. So many have already positioned themselves to profit from the misery of others, that they will actively work to prevent the money from getting to the needed locations and uses.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... The US held it, only in existing stadiums. I saw a game in a stadium built in 1930. I can't say the games were held only in old stadiums, but I can say none were held in purpose built stadiums.
Despite the complaints that the US wasn't a football country, that world cup had the highest attendance. It should have come back to the US before it went to Qatar or Brazil. But it needs to bring the economic "benefits" to the 3rd world, where it's economic penalty, not benefit.
Torture was invented in the inquisition to extract confessions. The truth was never required. The same holds true today. The torture isn't explicit damage, but threat of it. Confess or you'll be raped every day for the rest of your life. That's explicit torture.
If your heating pushes your electric bill up so high, you should change your heating to something more efficient. A small apartment uses electrical heating, but is usually small enough (and insulated enough, though warm neighbors) that it won't get too expensive. So someone getting bills that high should be using a boiler. And those don't run on electricity.
Rich people are even more mobile than companies, if a country plans to raise taxes they simply move off. Take greece for example, all the rich people immediately left the money when they found out the state was in desperate need for money.
Doesn't make sense. Someone like Trump with $0.10 to his personal name and $10B (by his unsubstantiated claims) in real estate, will pack up his hotels in his carry on and fly to Somalia? People don't move to avoid tax. They can, but the number is so statistically small as to be inconsequential.
Your post was a factless insult, in claiming my posts are devoid of logic. If that were true, you could point to the errors. But you didn't. Because there aren't any. Which is what really pisses you off.
"[AA] required that government employers "not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of race, creed, color, or national origin" and "take affirmative action to ensure that applicants are employed, and that employees are treated during employment, without regard to their race, creed, color, or national origin"
US AA isn't the same as the "international" version that Wikipedia reports that doesn't agree with any laws or public statements.
I guess I use the correct government definition, and you prefer the non-official definition because it supports your bigotry.
They push the 'designed in the USA', and use the USA to enforce IP world-wide, so it is inherently tied to the US. They also manipulate prices to maximize overseas profit, keeping money out of the USA. Sell at a loss to Ireland, then license it out from there to all the other subsidiaries. It's not because they operate from those locations, but that they open locations to funnel money to/through.
Cisco is beholden to the US government, and doesn't ship from the US. My SG made Cisco gear never passes through the US. Huawei has never had a vulnerability found that didn't come from copying Cisco. It's Cisco that deliberately puts them there.
In law, you are not allowed to hire someone purely because they are a specific race. Even "minority". Though you are allowed to hire an unqualified minority over a non-minority in order to promote "diversity" if you can prove "diversity" improves the core function of the organization. So far the only court tested places that can "hire" a minority over a more qualified non-minority is a school, trying to get a diversity approximating the general population (and no more).
In practice, for hiring, to be AA compliant, all you need to do is document your hiring decisions. It's not onerous, and doesn't require you hire an unqualified minority over a qualified non-minority.
You're also a race-hating bigot, because it's still racism when you avoid whites and Asians and men.
So you are a lying, race-hating bigot. Quote where I gave a preference. If you can't, you should apologize for your libelous lies.
China still has rules about ownership. So rather than putting ownership in the hands of Chinese, foreign companies license. Less profit, but greater chance for future profits, if the rules change.

Yeah, they reinvent the wheel, while copying each other. Wheelbase is almost identical between all cars in a class. Either they copy, or collude.

Moving from EU to EU isn't really moving. They are under the same central government. That'd be the same as Trump moving from NY to Oregon.

I never told him what to do, you lying sack of shit.
Cisco has been proven to have done all the bad things people say Huawei "might" do, yet still buy Cisco and avoid Huawei. Seems silly.

and based partially on anecdotes.
You know the plural of anecdote. Data. And I looked up the government statistics, not just the personal ones.
Most of that info is in public filings. Why do you imply he'd have trouble finding it?

oh, that's right, he said some mean things that have been distorted to the nth degree.
Nope. When accused of saying stupid things, he clarifies that he meant them all.
Where's the communism in China? It only lives on in the name of the party, and nowhere else.

So you are sexist, and would base your hiring decision on gender, based on bigotry and stereotypes. Got it.

Plenty of wagon-circling with Reagan's treasonous deals with Iran. Or is it only bad when the Democrats do it?
