Guest Commentary: Software patents are a distraction
- Keith Curtis
Editor's Note: Former Microsoft employee Keith Curtis is the author of After the Software Wars.
Software patents are frequently in the technology news, a multi-billion dollar licensing model existing in parallel to the traditional ways people acquire technology. Very few patents are enforced, but those that are often result in the transfer of secret and large amounts of money — not connected to the amount of work required to create the invention, but to the thickness of the wallet of the defendant.
It is interesting that a man like Nathan Myhrvold would start a company whose primary purpose seems to be acquiring software patents. It means that one of the deep thinkers of Seattle does not realize that software is math. In the 1930s, Alonzo Church created a mathematical system known as lambda (λ) calculus, an early programming language that used math as its foundation, and was Turing-complete, which meant it could express any program written today.
A patent on software is therefore a patent on math, something that historically has not been patentable. Donald Knuth, one of America's most preeminent computer scientists, wrote in a letter to the U.S. Patent Office:
I am told that the courts are trying to make a distinction between mathematical algorithms and non mathematical algorithms. To a computer scientist, this makes no sense, because every algorithm is as mathematical as anything could be. An algorithm is an abstract concept unrelated to the physical laws of the universe.
Nor is it possible to distinguish between "numerical" and "nonnumerical" algorithms, as if numbers were somehow different from other kinds of precise information. All data are numbers, and all numbers are data.

Martha Buskirk, Creative Enterprise: Contemporary Art between Museum and Marketplace, 2012, Continuum Press, New York, 392 pp., $39.95.
In her new book Creative Enterprise: Contemporary Art between Museum and Marketplace, released last month by Continuum Press, the scholar Martha Buskirk cuts the crap, to use an appropriately unsavory term, and makes it almost impossible for the rest of us not to. Art and money, money and art -- these seemingly contrary functions are inextricably linked, she asserts, and have always been. Hardly a novel idea, though we still seem loathe to admit it.

Brandon Spikes still limited as injury report remains unchanged - 0 Comments
The Patriots' injury report today was identical to yesterday's version, which essentially means no one got better and no one got worse. There was one change at practice, as linebacker Brandon Spikes ran and stretched with the team today after he spent yesterday on the stationary bike, but he was still listed as limited with a knee injury.
Here is the full report.
Did Not Practice:
Running back Brandon Bolden (knee)
Defensive end Trevor Scott (hamstring)
Linebacker Tracy White (foot)

AHOY THERE! The time has finally come as this month sees the launch of my latest book, Nautical Chic! If you should need more convincing to grab yourself a copy, there have been some very nice words about it in The Fashion (the bi-annual fashion magazine from The Guardian), from Dawn O'Porter in Glamour magazine and a whole page in Grazia. You can also read about it at The Daily Beast and The Debrief. It's out on 30th March, and is available to pre-order now through Foyles and the Guardian bookshop. What are you waiting for?!
The Fashion Glamour Grazia
If that doesn't quench your thirst for all things nautical, batten down the hatches as I've got a number of events lined up this month and next covering all aspects of high style on the high seas.
First off, the final in my series of events for the Women, Fashion, Power exhibition at the Design Museum is underway on 23rd March. The series examines how women use dress to negotiate issues around power throughout history and across cultures, and this month I'm talking about Uniform, Power and the Sea. Nautical motifs are a perennial on contemporary catwalks, from regimental naval glamour to the square sailor collar. But how did these elements of men's uniform — created as a spectacular display of sartorial power and military might — cross into women's dress? I'll be looking at the complex relationship between uniform, war, power and fashion, from the development of naval uniform to its appropriation into womenswear. TICKETS and info HERE.
Sticking with the seafaring theme (obvs), on April 28th at 6.30pm join me and Dr Matt Lodder for Nautical but Nice at the Museum of Curiosities. I will be chatting all things sailor-style, followed by tattoo historian Dr Matt Lodder. Matt is an Art Historian at the University of Essex who specialises in the history of tattooing as an artistic practice. His research challenges preconceptions of body modification and uncovers little-known histories of the practice in Victorian Britain and beyond. In this talk, 'Not Just For Sailors,' Matt will be exploring the history of tattoos in high society and the deep roots of a very familiar cliché. TICKETS and info HERE

ALSO THIS MONTH: Pop Art & Fashion at the Museum of Curiosities, March 24th at 7pm. Continuing my role as Fashion Director at the Museum of Curiosities, this month sees fashion go POP. Philip and Charlotte Colbert are a creative couple whose work collectively spans areas from photography to music and fashion. Philip is constantly inspired by Pop Art and was dubbed "the Godson of Andy Warhol" by Andre Leon Talley. His label The Rodnik Band is presented as a pop band rather than a traditional fashion label, and he has rendered some of the world's most recognisable artworks – from Dali lobsters to Duchamp's 'Fountain' – as sequin-encrusted dresses. Charlotte Colbert is a screenwriter and photographer, dubbed by Vogue as "A truly original visual storyteller." Also working within a framework of Modern Art, her work has been likened to Surrealists Salvador Dali and Andre Breton. The evening will kick off with a presentation on the links between Pop Art and Fashion by Geraldine Wharry, creative director of Trend Atelier, a London-based inspiration studio specialising in future trend research and analysis. TICKETS and info HERE
Finally, if you or anyone you know is keen to brush up on your fashion history, I'm teaching a couple of short courses at London College of Fashion over the summer. Fashion History: The Evolution of Style covers the key moments in fashion history and theory over 200 years, from the French Revolution through to the 1990s. And you also get a copy of my first book! It's running on saturdays from 16th May – 6th June, and on consecutive days from Tuesday 28th – Friday 31st July. BOOKING and info HERE.
That's all for now, but stay tuned for more nautical news including exciting plans with the place I cut my teeth with old clothing, Beyond Retro. Over and out!

Here is the code to reproduce the problem:
sub hello { return (h => 1, n => 1); }
print join ", ", values hello();
I get the error:
Type of arg 1 to values must be hash (not subroutine entry) at - line 4, near ");" Execution of - aborted due to compilation errors.
I know I can break the call and the print on two lines:
sub hello { return (h => 1, n => 1); }
my %hash = hello();
print join ", ", values %hash;
But I don't want to do that. Is there some way to do this in one line so that I don't have to create temporary variables all the time?

Shure SE425 Earphone
"Shure has definitely outdone themselves with this wonderful product. Never have I experienced more clarity in a pair of IEMs. For someone who listens to alternative rock, pop, and an assorted array of indie music, I say that few IEMs can do better. The amount of detail displayed is extraordinary. Vocals are crystal clear and forward, especially female vocals. However, the bass is lacking a bit..." --Dinerenblanc

Digital edge technologies used for creating, transferring, and listening to digital music has made the iPod and various other Digital Media Players the most popular portable listening devices around the world.

Shure Sound Isolating Earphone SE315 Hi-Definition Micro Speaker with Tuned Bass Port (Black)
"Just want to state up front my review rating is an absolute rating, not one based on comparative performance, pricing etc. Having had the Shure SE215s for a while and not enjoying them I thought I would go up the range and try the SE315s. At first I was impressed as the nasty spiky highs and wooly bass seemed to have gone but alas it was not to last. My overall thoughts..." --Krisman

Shure Sound Isolating Earphone SE315 Hi-Definition Micro Speaker with Tuned Bass Port (Clear)
"This is a review for the Shure SE315's, first a little about myself I don't consider myself a hard core audiophile like most people on this site. I am 38 years old and I am just your everyday listener who appreciates quality sound. I have been into Hi-Fi audio since I was a teenager mostly full size speakers.

It offers a different tuning than its brother, the fully stage-oriented MG6pro, by offering a brighter, more overall tonally balanced tuning.

" If you're tired of removing your IEMs to talk to someone, then this product is probably for you, despite its quirks. I wear my SE530s all day at the office and conduct most quick conversations through my PTH. The microphone is surprisingly good, even letting you conduct a conversation when it's pointed backwards. A few background noises like printers, scanners, or a fan pointed straight at it..." --maverickronin
