It was caught and never made it in the kernel.

Years ago there was a commit to the Linux kernal that strangly had no author. This got some attention of several of the developers.
Looking into the code that had to deal with network transmission. there was a section that if you tried to get network access in a unusual way had a check that was written something like this.
If (usr_permission = ROOT) ... Instead of If (usr_permission == ROOT) ...
The first giving the user root if invoked and the second checking to see if the user was root.
It's widely thought this was the NSA or some other intelligence agency trying to backdoor lin Linux.
Yeah on table top space marines are the reference for other things. Other armies usually have a unit that is considered a SEQ (space marine equivalent)
If I put a number on them it would be 1 where as IG flashlight trooper would be 0.1 and a tank would be around 7-10
To be fair that's a very different situation. Predicting how one person is going to decide is very difficult. Predicting how a large group is going to decide when you ask a subset of them first is much more predictable.
I'm not a big fan of these patents having been awarded and patent law needs serious overhaul. That said I think there is a good chance the lawsuit is successful. Three are a lot of patents in 3D printing that the open source community is just waiting for them to expire.
You can lose trademarks if you knowingly don't defend them but it's pretty hard to lose a patent. Even it gets added to a standard you participate it just goes into FRAND.
He is probably not from a legal standpoint. He is talking to her and she just funds the pac and selects the people who run it. It's super easy to get around that law.
True.
CICO it's what is called a bounding condition. It's true but the CO half is almost impossible to know or predict long term outside of being in a 24 - 7 lab.
Hormones, types of calories, activity, and biology all have a huge effect. And long term even small errors in these numbers can have big impacts on weight.
So you see it all started with space frogs hundreds of millions of years ago...
The company had always been run by engineers that came up from chip fab. Then they fired both the CEO and the head of fab for sexual harassment.
Then they make the CFO with a MBA the new CEO. A year or two latter and chip design is having problems and fab is falling behind.
The DS9 writers and actors also had workarounds for Berman. They would write a scene and then a close but Berman friendly version. He would ok it and then the actors would "improvise" the original script.
Dukat was another case of the writers and actor colluding. Berman wanted him to be straight up evil. The writers and actor wanted to give him respectable motivations for his evil acts.
So he is not a good guy but you can respect the love for family and state that drives his terrible crimes.
It was clearly an attack. By who is unknown.
Notably this was in 2003 before git (2005) so linux source was in a central bitkeeper repo. So a commit with no associated data about who did it should not have been possible.
