You've done nothing to explain how the presumption of validity implies the plaintiff will ultimately win, nor how my analogy to the validity of a law is wrong. If the answer were really just "Yes", you shouldn't have felt it necessary to br

1. The numbers you're quoting sure are. Look at the chart and surrounding text again. And all you said was "Plaintiffs were only winning 20-40% of the time.". "Winning" in a patent case hinges on infringement. If you're not talking about in

I wouldn't want a jury of "patent specialists", I want an inquisitorial panel including professional judges, laypersons, and technical (not "patent") specialists with the power to actively seek truth out in the open, and I want it for all c

1. That's like saying a law against speeding is valid, so the defendant is probably guilty of speeding. That a patent is valid says absolutely nothing about whether a defendant is infringing it. 2. Sorry, all I can do is laugh. Do you act

This annoyed me when dealing with net/http the other day. Really seems like the Go team hasn't spent much time thinking about problems on the client side of connections yet.

That's the intersection of the following sets: * Small companies. * With some legal or contractual obligation preventing use of a public IRC server. * But not preventing use of a third-party outside-the-firewall solution. * And not having a

You've just done a better job of marketing grove in two sentences than grove has ever done itself. That's really the point. As it stands, grove.io markets itself as $10/month for 5 users to chat. The first two words anyone is going to read

I've never setup that particular ircd, but regardless of what ircd you use, once you add separate services to the mix, you're making life unnecessarily difficult. Separate services daemons are not needed for private IRC servers.

It should take you 30-60 minutes to setup an IRC server depending on how familiar you are with, well, Unix. 0 minutes of maintenance per month. And once it's done, you can have dozens, hundreds, even thousands of users on it for a marginal

A couple years ago I ran tests on an embedded Broadcom platform (7413, clocked at 400MHz IIRC) because I wasn't sure what was reasonable for SSL certificates when a box like that was involved. I ended up using 2048 for both the client and s

Things are hardly so absolute. The United States Constitution is the highest law, and provides for different treatment of foreign and domestic matters, so your statement is obviously false even under the most broad interpretation of "the go

The question of password hashing does not concern a password, it concerns passwords . This is a textbook case of being unable to see the forest for the trees. I'm actually astounded by how closely the idiom matches this case. A simple MD

My point is that that article is not available to me or the public at large. You can't expect to cite secret evidence and have us just believe everything you say. You're not Dick Cheney. I'm done replying now, since you don't seem to be get

It's hard to "take the time" to read a story behind a paywall when you have no desire to give money to the entity owning the wall. Based on the publicly-available information, it's not clear that Google did any such thing. They might have r

You're fundamentally misunderstanding the problem domain. At the highest level, you're missing the issue of specialization and parallelization. This misunderstanding is partly alluded to by your surprise at the power of GPUs to hash passwor
