Perhaps adding the copyright notice to the photo makes it a derivative work, and is therefore protected by copyright? Another take is that it is the news report that is copyrighted, and putting the main material of the report (the photo) wh

The basic thesis is this: What ever we can measure and whatever we pay attention to, we improve. It's just like Hacker News karma. A management that forms a tight feedback loop with market watchers and stock prices tend to learn very quickl

MBAs are misunderstood. These are business hackers. They may hack the signals that are being sent to the market quarterly, but they are also capable of hacking other parts of the business for better long term outcomes if the market lets the

Sorry, I should have mentioned IANAL and not even a US citizen. It'd probably be seen as trying to circumvent laws wouldn't it? That'd be bad. On the other hand, the major investors would lose out even more wouldn't they? Didn't they build

So, let's say FF27 was incompatible. Should an enterprise then run FF4 where security patches are no longer provided? The correct conclusion would that enterprises shouldn't run FF in the first place.
