This bill would be of no benefit to anyone other than the companies requesting the patents (well, maybe the lawyers for said companies too). There would be no benefit to society, as the patents would be used to extract profits from patient

WPF definitely requires "drinking the Kool-aid". For WinForms Devs, it might be tough to swallow, but it's good medicine. The state of WinForms development before was not sustainable and incredibly challenging with large app

You could say the same about COBOL. Just because it's "dead" doesn't mean that businesses don't have tens to hundreds of thousands to even millions of lines of code hanging around in these "dead" language
