I see nothing wrong with this, or demanding any reporter provide copies of all work used to produce a story, nothing in that is stopping you from reporting
So when a government agent tells a reporter about something illegal going on within the government (say, wiretapping the opposition party, maybe), the reporter being forced to reveal who that source is isn't a big deal to you?
I'll grant you that those laws are used overly much by reporters, but there's very good reason for them to be there.
Centigram communications (later part of ADC, then split off to become SS8 Networks; not sure about corporate history since then) was working on this back in 2000/2001. Well, actually, we were working on that when I was there, then. But it wasn't anything new to the company even back then.
This is a big, and important, step in the right direction. After all, if they just repeat what the government says (which is what they've been doing for the past ten years), then there is no value added. If there is no value added, then the business has no reason to exist. You'd think they'd have noticed this.
Another important step, stop using anonymous sourcing, particularly when repeating the government line. If it's a whistleblower, sure, they deserve all the anonymity they can get, but otherwise? We deserve to know from which 'administration official with knowledge of the discussion' we're hearing.
@freedom... There are plenty of scientists who are both European and Socialist. I'm not sure exactly what dichotomy you're trying to draw there, but that one didn't work.
Maybe it's just a matter of the lawyers making the determination. And they say, "We get paid to file it. If it comes back at us, we get paid to defend the filing. If it really bites us in the ass, we'll say we did everything we could, and still get paid. Win, win, win."
And yes, it's a travesty of a decision (not that I think that the companies should have been deprived of due process, but that doesn't mean they should have all privileges of being a person), but somehow still out there. How it didn't contradict the 13th Amendment, I've no idea. After all, isn't the definition of slavery one person owning another?
Has anyone challenged the constitutionality of retroactive extensions of term? After all, there's no way that doing so promotes "the Progress of Science and useful Arts".
The only reason I knew FS had been around in the recent past was because a friend of mine uses it for planning photography trips (ie: "when do I need to be in this canyon to get the light I want" types of things).
is pretty much always cheaper than buying someone else's service. But that's a minor quibble. I certainly wouldn't consider paying for either of those "services". Then again, my rsync-fu is pretty strong. :)
Given that the MSM just regurgitates government talking points (generally without attribution, just 'cause... well, who really cares who spouts off, anyway?), it shows how useless they are.
I definitely agree with you in principle. And software is, at best, a minefield for patents.
I just thought I'd point out, though, that if you've bought property, you've dealt with a lawyer. That was the person handling your closing. They don't do a whole lot in front of you, but they are lawyers.
So, what you're saying is that we should become Japan of the 60's, 70's, and 80's? We don't really need new products, just continual refinement of existing ones?
I agree with the others, while that makes a lot of money in the short run, it seems like a long term loser.
If it's a CRT TV, it's drawing some power. I'll grant, I was, perhaps, being a bit too brief; it's been a while since 60% has been typical (actually, a bit more searching says it's probably been a few years since it's even been seen; it has been several years since I cared enough to look into this). But 20-30% was pretty typical for quite a while; it looks like 3-5% is more typical of TVs in the last few years. So apparently it has improved a great deal since I last looked.
Umm... CRT TVs are actually the worst of all. They keep a significant amount of power going to the tube, so that it doesn't shut off completely (extends the life of the tube a lot to do that). In some TVs, that was as high as 60% of the power consumed while on.
Most likely, you just didn't notice it.
That is one big advantage to going to pretty much any other TV technology, is that you don't have that "hidden" draw.
Last time I checked, you are still a product of the society in which you were raised and/or still live. That's why you owe a debt to society for your creativity, even if misery with that society was what inspired those creations. Society still created the conditions that allowed you to write it.
There's also the issue that a society is defined largely by the creative works that come out of it. By your argument, society would therefore be defined by the property of a collection of people.
The use it or lose it isn't really enforceable in any usable way ("What do you mean? We put out a cassette tape of that movie. It was available!"). The alternative I like, which accomplishes the same purpose, is to charge an increasing fee. The fee could be quite nominal for the first couple of renewals, but it should gradually increase to the point that it won't be worth the cost to renew.
This way, copyright can be renewed indefinitely for those items that make a lot of money, but will quickly lapse for those without further commercial value.
So Disney can keep the Mouse more or less as long as they want, but the public is essentially getting rent for it (and in my vision, that rent would end up in the multiple millions per year). And that CD you like? It'll pass out of copyright in a finite period. In fact, almost immediately, if no one else likes it.
