You can have simultaneous copyrights and trademarks, they protect different aspects.
- hnlmorg 5y agoThis is your 5th comment making the same accusation and the 5th time I've said I know there is a difference and wasn't trying to conflate copyright with trademarks. It's also the 5th time you've got muddled over what public domain means (since that was the actual language I used) and thus the 5th time that you've gotten confused over the topic. And worst of all, it's 5th time you've proceeded to lecture me about something that wasn't even in contention to begin with. I do acknowledge my opening post was pretty poorly written. It was rushed so I didn't really compose it properly, more just brain-farted some words into HN. Had I expected the conversation it would then generate I'd have spent more time on it. However that doesn't excuse the barrage patronising strawman arguments you've attacked me with. There's 2 or 3 replies from you just to my OP, never mind deeper in the thread.
