But let's say I connect from A to B over the normal (wired) internet. The packet goes through router X or router Y. Then, when X fails, the message may be routed through Y or the other way around.
Same with multipath: when wifi fails, use mobile network, and vice versa.
No modification of TCP necessary!
Only the kernel (it has to set up "virtual" routers for wifi and mobile).
But then you get big companies taking the shotgun approach: many applications (they have much more money than independent inventors), and speculating on the patent office not being able to find prior art in some of them.
In the beginning, the internet was open, and federated. You could send e-mail from any server, even one you built yourself. If somebody said: let's run our e-mail from one server, and make everybody's addresses end in "@bigcorp.com", then that person would have been called insane.
Now, when you want to share something, you are socially obliged to use things like facebook and twitter.
It is not a dangerous trend. The internet is actually where we don't want it to be, to begin with. The protocols should be open and services should work in a federated way. Just like the internet was intended. Then we would not have this whole problem.
A claim which is possible but largely lacking in evidence.
You act as if the statements being made here are scientific. But science requires experiments to be done, and you simply cannot do an experiment using two open source projects with different licenses and say meaningful things, when all you have is a lab that is essentially one complex economy that nobody can understand.
Not to say it doesn't happen with the GPL, but it's actually a legal risk to allow it to happen.
Vague. Doesn't say much about the actual difference of "power" between BSD and GPL.
If you publish your open source project using GPL, you actually run the risk that your project will one day be superseded by a project which uses a more permissive license and may actually be more popular because the license attracts companies and hence money.
I'd say GPL spreads like a religion. Don't use condoms, multiply and spread the holy word!
Why is that even necessary? Otherwise, making a movie containing a 1000 names could grant you a 1000 trademarks, almost for free. Doesn't sound like reasonable to me.
It will only be a matter of time until they find clustering algorithms that can separate your "interests".
Basically it is like you have three clouds of points. One cloud is your interests. One cloud is for your wife, and one cloud is for your child. For a human, it is easy to tell these clouds apart. For a computer, it will soon be easy too.

Okay. But now the problem is to get people in Congress to actually pass and implement this.
(Which may be a much harder task than actually coming up with this solution!)
Can somebody explain the classical two-slit quantum mechanic experiment in terms of these amplituhedron objects?
Until we find the algorithm of his pseudo random number generator.
If souls exist, then I'd say that exactly one soul exists.
Because even if there is no strong neural coupling between your brain and my brain, how does nature figure out we are actually two distinct persons?
But then you get big companies taking the shotgun approach: many applications (they have much more money than independent inventors), and speculating on the patent office not being able to find prior art in some of them.
I guess somebody wrote an app. That's how we evolved into app-writers.
Come on, if you have a patent on rounded corners, you ought to use it!

warming this century will be under 2C — when the author has already explained to them that his research shows the exact opposite!
So...over 2C?
Yes, 2.001C
so it's pretty embarrassing that he 'makes a nearly identical blunder' all over again.
This is not about embarrassment or reputation. This is about our planet. Come on, guys.
I just moved to FreeBSD.
I've really had it with these slavemasters since the era of the IDE hardware bus.
Unfortunately, blood is already used to "power" electronics.

You can also say that both the paper and the eraser do the same thing.
The pencil moves graphite pigment from the pencil to the paper. In other words, the paper "erases" pigment from the pencil.
So, even the eraser (presumably invented after the pencil) isn't new!
Simple. Choose GPL if you want your project to be one day superseded by one which has a more liberal license.
Otherwise, choose a BSD license.
Very interesting. Do you use multigrid methods to solve the equations?
The show terrified some viewers who apparently didn't realise that their TV screen was powered by the grid.
But... I have my own wind-power facility, you insensitive clod!

that computing in the 21st century would become so exciting?
Actually, I think we need "unions" for programmers or engineers in general to sort out this kind of issue.
As another example, if we had unions back in the Windows95 era, then there would never have been an IE6. We would have had stronger web standards.
Do they have some magical break on AES that no one in academia knows about or can even fathom? No. Just some FUD.
That might be because NSA may have forward-engineered some tricks/backdoors into AES. Doing the reverse-engineering may be much harder.
Buy your tap water from Google, and receive small proteins that program your brain to buy stuff.
