Comment We had that in the UK (Score 2) 111

You could buy all sorts of devices to plug into your phone line, back when we had a clueless government monopoly running the phone system. Some had green stickers saying "this is good" and some had red triangles warning that it could not be connected to your phone system. Absolutely nobody gave a shit about the stickers and plugged whatever they wanted into their phone system. Eventually the stickers went away.

Why don't we change the law so that when you have a patent you just get to put a little sticker on the box the devices comes in that says "I did this!" so your shareholders and your mums and dads can be really proud! Well done! And if you can win a law suit against someone else, they have to put a stick on their boxes which say "this box contains stuff some other company worked on" and people can decide whether they give a shit or not, and if they don't (clue: nobody cares), they can buy the product, but if they do care, they can go and get the first companies product instead. Let the market decide that way.

Visual Studio is a great IDE, and Google's Android emulator is so slow you'd think it was a joke. So even without a additional framework it's great that you can dump the laugable Eclipse IDE (which has "Open Source shit designed by a deranged committee of fuckwits" all over it), and put the excellent but still not quite as polished Android Studio to one side, and develop for Android that way.
