What exactly is implied by a "copyrightable API"?

Does this mean that we can copyright an API in a broad generic manner? i.e. a "web service that returns a JSON object of apps in an app store".

Or is the specific manner in which the API fetches the information the part that is copyrightable?

It's going to be interesting to see how people react to the slowly encroaching restriction on what we can/cannot access online.

With the Middle East & Co. the cut-off was drastic, whereas I think in the West we're facing the Boiling Frog syndrome.

People in this thread are asking if the governments' are slow/inefficient, but really I think the general populace is even slower.

The only complaints that have any merit are the (mostly perceived) detriment to property value.

We've had them for years powering Bowling Green, OH and if anything they've been an attraction. http://www.bgohio.org/departments/utilities-department/wind-turbines

Do you have any scholarly references to subsonic vibrations causing health issues with wind turbines? I'd be interested in reading those because it sounds like psycho-FUD tbh.

This option doesn't emit carcinogens into our environment leading to health issues down the road.

It may cause climatological changes in the local area, but call me crazy for thinking I'd rather adapt to weather pattern changes than have my body try to adapt to carcinogens from current energy producing means.

Whenever they take servers "down" it's like a ogre killing a spider with a tree trunk. They smash the table, furniture, and destroy the house along with the poor spider.

This study should have really been looking at the psychological impact of teens being forced to use BB devices and how they will end up being scarred for life from the ridicule and bullying for not using an iPhone or Android smartphone.

That large funding must really have helped a lot to bribe those teens to use a BlackBerry in the first place...

If pointers are the hardest thing to learn in C++ for CS students just think how hard it is for brainless morons.

I was a gay youth (and probably at 26 many still consider me such). While my "demographics" suicide attempts are higher, attempts are only that: attempts. Really I don't know how people fail to commit suicide; it's not that hard. Attempts are asking for attention, because they want help.

Whether or not you find suicide (not attempts) agreeable or not is besides the point.

Everyone's life is their own and they should live it how they want; that includes ending that life when and how they want.

Suicide is a personal choice, not anyone else's. I don't see why everyone always tries to blame bullies, commenters, family, etc.

Regardless of if it's a rational decision or not it's my own choice, just like robbing a bank is my fault.

Do I get to blame commenters urging me to commit other crimes too?

As accustomed to ultra-consumption as we are 20 minutes to learn something new in an area you're (at least I was) totally unfamiliar with isn't all that much time.

Plus the video is rather well done and informative.

I'd just use this as a screening question for potential employees.

If you willingly give me your login credentials I should just assume you're a moron and not hire you.
