These are token royalties, I don't see the moral difference between these services and piracy. Music discovery has always been a liability for artists, the illusion that sharing is somehow worse than this sanctioned exploitation is pure hy

I had a full size key board to replace the stock bluetooth one, so I had both. I'm a big guy and like a full keyboard, large screen etc. After the very first time the mouse died I went out and got all wired peripherals for my workstation.

I think we can all agree the problem with publishing is getting read . There's your value. Force the sale early and you trade that for something else. Mince about ideology all you want, this is the market.

All I get from this is a bunch of hand-waving that the problem is too complex to consider, and libertarians are the only group that want marriage privatized. Never mind the fairness of the law. I think this issue spans the US as well, so

Patent trolling is probably unavoidable, but I'd say much less likely when it's initiated by individuals. Legitimate claims must be accessible, and the courts need to be the test. Your second point cuts to the heart of the issue, should pa

Maybe patents should have restrictions on transferal? This kind of problem would be less frequent if the original inventor had a period where the patent was non-transferable. What might happen? Would this decrease patent hoarding and trol

The code I invent myself is almost always a big mess. When I'm working seriously, I research the answer to the problem. This produces slower results, better code. The other trade off is I'm not working from direct memory or skill, so co-w
