Thanks for your detailed response. Yes, it would be good to have a kind of repository where people could submit their ideas or designs in order to prevent future patents. Somewhat like copylefting code.

Yes, that is what i meant.

This is interesting but I'd like to know a few more things : 1) Does submission of prior art guarantee it will be looked at and considered ? 2) Must a prior art submission always be associated with a particular patent or set of patents ? 3)

Nice!. This could actually turn out to be useful information ,who knows. I wonder if they did the same for canned food items. Also, what about other type of non-conventional weapons ? would canned goods and packaged beverages be usable afte

Enough people have posted links in this thread. Its also easy enough to search for. However, as mentioned, no matter what you read or infer, if there is a child in distress on an airplane or in an airport the very least you should do is bri

It sucks to say this but in the US if you're male, the smart/safe thing to do is not have any contact with an unaccompanied child at all. There is a non-trivial chance that may be misconstrued as something else and you could find yourself i

Well done, not bad at all. The only change I would make is to cut away a portion of the back-board under the desk so I could stretch my legs out a bit.

My opinion is contrary to most of the comments here. About a year ago we switched a multi-tiered app from MySQL/MSSqlServer to Postgres/Postgres. While everything works fine, after months of using it I find writing programs for and with MyS

Assuming everything the OP says about the incident is true, why would the French police not help ?

by arjn 14y ago
In general I agree with the OP...somewhat. Over the last few months or maybe a year or so, I feel an increase in less interesting articles. Maybe there are just too many people and submitters now on HN and its getting diluted. (All just my

My opinion is that this may not be the end of local retail. I would still prefer to shop at my local grocers and farmers market on the weekend. Sometimes shopping is more than just shopping, its also an outing with family.
