The article linked to does not support your assertion, says nothing about underwriters stepping in, nothing about freefall, nothing about decline, nothing about manipulation.

Why is that?

Wouldn't this be copyright infringement? The web page as you intended is your creative work, they are altering and distributing your work. I don't think you are allowed to do that.

"Monopolies should be public. Leave the rest to the market if you don't know what is optimal. If you do, get rid of the market."

Absolutely, on any given day, in the small city where I live, the posted price of gas is exactly the same at every single gas station. This is a market that is broken. That not one guy is willing to offer a penny, or a fraction of a penny to sell a more gas than the other guy is a sign that this is not a real market.

Markets should exist where markets work, but if it's not a real market than it should be a regulated service. A broken(non competitive) market is like a tax, but without the benefit to society. Markets that aren't competitive should be regulated to encourage competitiveness, or they should be replaced with public utilities.

The cost of distributing someone else's gpl work is licensing your derivative work under the same license. The face up fairness of this deal is what appeals to so many developers. Every license has rules.

Nobody calls him SJ.

Seems like a sexist prick thing to say.

Just sayin,

Where are Attila Dimedici's comments where he can justify such an outrageous summary? I think if I submitted a story, I would at least follow the discussion. The impression he is leaving about Tesla closing it's doors is irresponsible at best.

Maybe when you get older you will understand, and situations like this will not seem so weird.

you mean this quote from the article you linked to

"Mr. Hotz expressly tells people on his website not to give him donations for his efforts," Kellar explained. "Even more harmful to Sony's personal jurisdiction argument, the only evidence put forward of Mr. Hotz' PayPal account appears to be a transaction initiated by the plaintiff."

Why would you say what you said when the link you posted as evidence says the opposite?

I don't think you don't lose energy speeding up and slowing down pistons, they are on a rotating assembly and their momentum caries them around.

Incredible!

Also, all the people I have helped by installing and defaulting to Firefox, are now wondering why they have 15 search bars and half an inch of actual browser window. These are the users microsoft wanted back.

If my code gets 'stolen', used without my permission, breaking the terms of the license; what difference does it make as to the license I chose to release it under.
