Since when has investing in cyberwarfare skills become a substitute for writing correct code? Instead of thinking long term, and learning to write open, correct code in sane languages, the continued emphasis is in continuing to ship bug-rid

Where is the substance to your claims? The last few years has seen a constant erosion of income both in the USA and Europe. In any case why should trade agreements cede arbitration and disputes to tribunals and panels which are not subject

The only thing that will keep Microsoft and Apple going in the consumer markets over the next few years are patents and binary blobs. Once chips become fast enough and non-free drivers become irrelevant their days will be over. Already a $1
