Haha, I find it amusing that people even think that's effective.

Gee, thanks a lot! The audio autoplay almost woke up everyone in the effing house! Seriously, I like the cat, but is this 1998?! Jesus, give us a dang warning at least!

Lucky!

I was only considering buying it myself because it was only $5. I've been needing a new computer. Lol.

If it's $5 at Adafruit, then how come it doesn't show it? Most of the time a store will list something even if it's out of stock, but will just put a sticker on the entry that says "Out of stock".

> Today, I’m pleased to be able to announce the immediate availability of Raspberry Pi Zero, made in Wales and priced at just $5.

I'm confused: they say it's $5 but at Adafruit (one of the places where USAians can buy it), the cheapest are the Raspberry Pi Zero Starter Pack and the Raspberry Pi Zero Budget Pack, priced at $59.95 and $29.95, respectively.

What is this A/B formatting? 20/5, 100/50, etc.

That's a very intriguing thing. Thanks for that. :-)

What sparked the myth?

Interesting...

So is this like an online "textbook" for how to do startups or something?

What does it mean when something "EZ-Bake[s]" itself?

If anything, I need to talk like how I write. I'm a writer, not a talker: I'm verbose in speech, but concise in text.

I thought so, but wasn't 100% sure.

Thanks.

What does /s mean?

I love you for using binary prefixes. <3

> The fact that it is free doesn't mean it costs nothing.

I agree. In the sense it's usually meant, "free" just means "monetarily free", but cost can come in more forms than just monetary units. :)

Solution: Micro-organisms.

> And if you do get a positive response, ask how having it apply for more than 10 years helps them.

They did say, "most studies are more about how much copyright protection is enough", to be accurate. :/

I agree. Indeed, although most of the copyright stuff out there is driven by profit-hungry companies, the fact still remains that it is still a valuable protection for artists.

For example, if a photographer takes a picture of something and posts it to their online website, without copyright anyone could just up and steal it and claim it as their own, and there'd be nothing the artist could do about it.

Same thing for writers. And video directors. And musicians. Etc.

Yes, it's misused and could use a lot of improvements; however, it's here for a good reason.

Bottom Line: You can improve something without completely getting rid of it. Creative Commons (CC) is a great example of this; it allows for open sharing yet maintains attribution. This protects the artists whilst dismantling any motivation for publishers/distributors/other_companies to be copyright sharks about it.

That's what I was thinking when I read the article. Still, although it seems it'd be (most likely) technically an orphaned work, the circumstances mean that it most likely is a de facto public-domain work, I would think.

You, my good fellow, are awesome. :)

What does "guanxi" mean? I'm aware it's a Chinese word.

You plan on deleting that spreadsheet any time soon?

Sorry for the inexperience, but what is "Lean Canvas"?

I'm still a beginner with code. I've been learning HTML (not yet CSS, as far as I know) and Markdown, and I'm also in the middle of learning Python using free courses on Udacity. This is all in my free time. No courses taken. Would this be a good language to learn right now, or would I be better off waiting till I'm more experienced?
