Coding in DG assembler using Edit/Speed(Super Edit - geddit?). Reading a paper tape file and writing it to paper tape punch - you haven't lived!!! Where else could you yank a page??? (Yes - yank). And all on a Teletype 32 ASR!!! Multiple edits in one command without seeing the intermediate results if you were good - really good (coff coff). Ah those were the days.

...is this (lowering the bar) really the goal, ie lowering the bar or actually getting rid of software patents? To me, 'lowering the bar' says that software patents are valid, because we have 'agreement' as to what constitutes a line in the sand for good/bad patents. Somethings rotten in Denmark (& elsewhere). I think lowering the bar IS what M$ is really after.
freeasinrealale writes: This paper provides empirical evidence on how intellectual property (IP) on a given technology affects subsequent innovation. To shed light on this question, I analyze the sequencing of the human genome by the public Human Genome Project and the private firm Celera, and estimate the impact of Celera's gene-level IP on subsequent scientific research and product development outcomes. Celera's IP applied to genes sequenced first by Celera, and was removed when the public effort re-sequenced those genes. I test whether genes that ever had Celera's IP differ in subsequent innovation, as of 2009, from genes sequenced by the public effort over the same time period, a comparison group that appears balanced on ex ante gene-level observables. A complementary panel analysis traces the effects of removal of Celera's IP on within-gene flow measures of subsequent innovation. Both analyses suggest Celera's IP led to reductions in subsequent scientific research and product development outcomes on the order of 30 percent. Celera's short-term IP thus appears to have had persistent negative effects on subsequent innovation relative to a counterfactual of Celera genes having always been in the public domain.
Eight level mylar punched tape dated 1965. Its a biax (microcode) boot loader for Collins C8401. Just enter V>U; NOP; 620 in start register, hit reset/start and watch mylar tape fly thru tape reader at 9600 baud. Takes about five minutes to load.
