TODAY'S show finally touches the issue of software patents. Tim's site, OpenBytes, has published some show notes and we must apologise for connection issues that harmed the quality of this recording.
Who needs RAs (layoffs, which have been rebranded as "buyouts" like pink slips are generous "gifts") when workers can have their butts kicked every day and WARN Act reporting thresholds are never approached?

Today's show ends with "Pianist Envy" from Chilly Gonzales (at SXSW 2010 Showcasing Artists).
