| 00:01.17 | youtah | yeah, especially confusing when that last link I posted talked about Barnes & Noble |
| 00:02.04 | youtah | we've got to get the patent system fixed (regarding software specifically) |
| 00:02.50 | youtah | I think copyright is more appropriate. I think that the patent system for software is totally jacked up. |
| 00:03.22 | youtah | It's like M$ putting a patent on "build a house" |
| 00:03.27 | youtah | it's so vague |
| 00:04.02 | youtah | Sure, Ivory homes can copyright their floor plans, but they don't block out other homes from building differing floor plans, or make them pay royalties. |
| 00:04.19 | youtah | (struggling for a tangible comparison) |
| 00:04.24 | youtah | but you get my drift |
| 00:04.53 | spangborn | I'm not really much of a drifter. |
| 00:07.18 | spangborn | New Pebble update, which tells almost nothing we didn't already know. Heh. |
| 00:07.19 | romanovic | of course, the Patent & TM office would never go for a house building patent. But if you word it like "Build a house... ON THE INTERNET" then offer some CAD design as a cloud service, they'll issue it no problem |

| 00:27.17 | youtah | yeah but... an arrow? |
| 00:27.22 | youtah | just saying an arrow? |
| 00:27.25 | youtah | or "Swype" |
| 00:27.30 | youtah | how vague is that?! |
| 00:28.26 | youtah | with the background patent, at least that's starting to be a little more specific |
| 00:28.34 | youtah | but still as vague as all can get out |
| 00:32.59 | Gate | so.... who uses what for mysql query analysis? |
| 00:33.03 | romanovic | yeah. well, software patents are a joke |
| 00:33.22 | Gate | since I feel about as much like giving oracle money as I feel like using java. |
| 00:33.41 | romanovic | does not believe in software patents (despite 100% of his day being devoted to producing software "IP") |
