Maybe you should watch it again. Forward the video to 2:54, where it narrates the following quotation:

As the quote is read, it shows an Appe II, then a Macbook. Immediately afterwards, it shows an iPad and an iPhone.

IT technology isn't always moving forward. Occasionally, it just moves sideways, or it even moves backwards. This is largely due to how immature IT is as a discipline, which is ironically because IT workers are disposable.

Why not? They know all about gaping holes... in security, among other things.

It became acceptable (to those making the statement) around the time it became obvious that you cannot concentrate the wealth of the world much more than it already is without placing most of the population into poverty.

Devalued content helps the consumer all the way up until the flow of new content stops, and there is no indication that it would, even in a world where all content was distributed for free. I might have more sympathy for the guy if the big content producers didn't also bribe Congress to extend copyright duration to a point where something produced in an average person's lifetime will not enter the public domain until after they're long dead.

The comment I am reading is still valid and accurate.

The beatings will continue until morale improves.

Sharing a hyperlink is no different than pointing at a bulletin board in plain view of the public. Neither the bulletin board nor the act of pointing to it should be illegal.

Despite the prior news story about a guy getting off for upskirt photos, this law seems like a solution looking for a problem. Has upskirt photography been such a large problem in Massachusetts that a law was required?

I would have thought basic social pressures and shaming (lets admit - people doing this *are* particularly creepy) would do a better job at limiting the number of offenders, and the rest would do it anyways.

With a law on the books, particularly one with the possibility for felony charges, I wonder how many times we are going to read about misapplication of the law. Do you technically run afoul of the law anytime you take a photo where a woman in a skirt is elevated from your current location, such as a place with an elevated walkway? Do you risk arrest for taking a picture in a location with an escalator or glass-walled elevator like many shopping malls? even if you are close to neither one?

You don't have to teach web developers DELETE or DROP - many web sites will happily let anyone run either statement from the comfort of the login page.

Never attribute to malice that which can be explained by incompetence. If ever there was a case for incompetence, it is with the patent office.

To err is human, but to truly screw up requires a computer.

I would want to see a copy of the script before I performed one take of the movie. I just assumed any actor or actress would do the same.

The only scenario for which I could feel sympathy for Ms. Garcia would be if the script was radically changed during the course of filming to the point where it was completely different. Even then, my sympathy is limited because I would personally insist in having a clause in the contract to terminate early when big script changes occur.

USB might like to have a word with you.

It was. Early versions of NT still had OS/2 error messages in it.
