Here's an crazy thought: when lawyers are in court, one of them is always wrong. Imagine that. A lawyer being wrong. Mind blown. Is your lawyer a software engineer? If not, he doesn't know anything! He has literally no idea. He can't even comprehend software. It would melt his brain. So you ask, how can I the holder of meagre so-called "Computer Science PhD", comprehend the the holy (and unspeakable) knowledge of those who have spent an unimaginable three years studying law? Who am I to question our very gods? Well, sir, I give you "The Wikipedia": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clean_room_design#Examples https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clean_room_design#Examples Perhaps we should have it destroyed for spreading the "unspeakable" knowledge, rightfully known only by our lawyer-priests and spoken amongst them in their own tongue.

Wow... No one said lawyers can't be wrong, but the law is complex, and if you haven't studied it, it's a pretty good bet you don't really understand all the details. It's pretty funny to see you belittle lawyers in the same paragraph you say any lawyer's mind would melt by the complexity of software. Having a PhD in CS doesn't make you an expert in the law, the economy, or any other field unrelated to CS. I was going to respond to the wikipedia article, but I'm realizing that would be a waste of my time. Good luck with your crusade against the almighty lawyer-priests.

OT, but that one side loses doesn't mean they're wrong, just like if one side loses a battle doesn't mean they don't know how to fight. It might just mean that the other side was better; or got lucky.
