I don't have the same experience as most people here. I usually just study by reading or trying to recreate the scene/code/history in my read, and works greatly to understand and memorize. When i write it takes time and feels like wasted ti

This is just a PR gamble with the numbers. They are saying for the past 2 years. And that probably means that Android outsold Windows this year, or else they wouldn't have used "last 2 years". Going by Android's growth rate and Windows' sa

Samsung profits very little from Apple, maybe they will profit more now, but as it stands, i would like to be the one to report shareholders that we lost the biggest customer, but we have record profits because of that, selling smartphones

Brazil actually has a very organized election. Aside from bad politicians we have to chose from, the election does not have many problems. We have a judicial system just for election (with judges and clear laws) ready to take actions (and t

While i agree with you on almost everything... Why didn't Apple accept to be bound by the courts (supposed to be fair and reasonable) rate? Something smells here about this, and it's coming from Apple. Apple and Microsoft both are trying to

What Motorola's patent they promised to give for cheap? FRAND does not mean cheap. It never meant. Microsoft and Apple are trying to change the term now, because they want to tax Android products, and cheapening SEP is the easiest way to d

First, a corporation is not someone. Second, forcing a corporation to repair the damage they done is the right thing to do.

Oh yes, i read that now. I (kinda) apologize to the parent post.

I'd argue that Apple is the one needing to do its own thing now. Their patent is being invalidated, that means that what they though it was original is not.

Really doubt it (about Win8/RT having more users than Android, ever), Smartphones are already selling more than PCs. Windows 7 took 2 years to reach 500 millions, and Android is already on that many hands (counting only OHA devices, ignorin

I agree with most of what you said, except that Nokia taking the Windows Phone strategy and keeping it mouth shut would've killed Windows Phone before they could even ship a phone. Which makes the decision to go Windows Phone (and kill the

Google is using Java language and its API, not JVM or its libs. Google never called Android a Java compatible or Java. Google has written all of its libs and the Dalvik VM. Now look at this story, it's a company claiming to be Android comp

You don't need to develop neither have a pratical thing to have a patent over it on USA. You can read a time machine patent here: http://www.google.com/patents?id=hNHIAAAAEBAJ&printsec=f... If you ever happen to develop this machine,

Are you sure there's any FRAND law? I was under the impression that was just an agreement by the company to a standard body.

Orkut had this same problem. They started showing who looked at your profile. For a lot of people that was when they crossed the line and they started getting tired of the social network. I'm from Brazil, by the way, Orkut was dominant here

Just for correctness, Oracle made 7 patent infringement claims against Google, and was left with only 2 by the time of the trial because of the reexaminations. And Google didn't argue invalidity because they agreed (to streamline the trial)

If Windows Phone ever get a good market share, you can be sure that Samsung (and others) will take notice, turning Nokia in a me too. The only company that has to gain from this situation (Windows Phone getting bigger) is Microsoft, not Nok

The previous CEO compared using android as 'peeing in your pants to stay warm', i wonder what using WP would have felt for him. And pretty sure Elop's memo is evidence enough he was the one changing Nokia (Symbian -> Meego) strategy.

Patents/FRAND pools are just a way for big old companies tax the little guys, not for inovations, but by making an standard encumbered with patents. Completely the the opposite of what patents where supposed to do. So, in a way, FRAND is ac

Google's best defense is that API can't be copyrighted actually, and that will be decided by the judge if the jury find Google's work is not fair use.

The analogy is better if you use dictionary. The language must have words with meaning (API specification). A dictionary is a book of words and their definition (API implementation). You can have two different dictionaries from the same la

Google has almost 90% marketshare in Brazil. People love Google here (only this year Facebook overtook Orkut as the main social network), Chrome is also marketleader already.. Yahoo barely exists in Brazil, aside from a few emails.
