I just had a brilliant idea: a distributed, NoSQL,
WebScale, /dev/null replacement. I think I should patent it. |
| cfedde |
rindolf: awesome! |
| cfedde |
as long as we have a webscale bit bucket we should
be fine. |
| rindolf |
cfedde: would you like to invest in that? |
| spiderweb |
software patents suck |
| cfedde |
rindolf: sure. Send me your bank account number
and I'll make a deposit! |
| alpha- |
rindolf that's like a 50 trillion dollar
invention |
| alpha- |
where do I invest |
| rindolf |
cfedde: OK, I'll send it through that /dev/null
thing. |
| cfedde |
rindolf: perfect. |

would be fun if it escaped the lab and started
/dev/null'ing the interwebs like a black hole |

I'd call that a public service. |

<stan\0> would be fun if it escaped the lab
and started /dev/null'ing the interwebs like a black hole ==>
don't worry, I'm also going to patent how to properly secure it
against abuse, so it will only null what you send to it. Not
anything external and unsolicited. |
| rindolf |
stan\0: but doing that will require paying me
extra. |
| rindolf |
stan\0: because I figure out not every one will
need this feature. |
