schestowitzHere’s the actual story: the state archive decided that now all of its material will be available on-line. That is: instead of researchers having to go to the building, ask for documents, review them there for a limited time, [copies of] the documents will be available on line. This is a great. The whole process is expected to take quite a long time (expected: 20 years[1]).Apr 14 21:01
schestowitzHowever this means that every document there is a document published. Thus it it has anything that is somewhat secret, it can’t be published as-is. Thus the copies published have to also pass censorship (which is generally fine. It’s a reasonable balance.Apr 14 21:01
schestowitzSo now you have professional historians and researchers. Those with the extra time (and ability. Think about it as someone not from Israel. “Ability” here includes a flight to Israel. Our country is indeed a fun place to be in, but some people won’t bother to do that just for one or two documents). For them the “old way” worked just fine. Furthermore, they had access to the original (pre-digitation, no censorship) copy of the Apr 14 21:01
schestowitzdocument and this will no longer be available.Apr 14 21:01
schestowitzI guess that in most cases this simply won’t be an issue. And in cases where it will be an issue, a procedure will have to be set to access to the original documents.Apr 14 21:01

schestowitz There appear to be quite a few factors not taken into account, possibly skewing the results and conclusions. Let's list them, so that they may be considered in the future:Apr 15 10:09
schestowitz- The value to an applicant is often not only in the prize (the final patent), but also in the process: the business uncertainty that this presents to competitors state during the grant procedure. Even if no prize is honestly expected, continuing has value.Apr 15 10:09
schestowitz- The interests of the applicant are not what they appear to be. An applicant does not neccessarily aim for a rational business decision:egApr 15 10:09
schestowitza) The applicant may have an owner wishing to create IP right in order to sell the entire applicant-entity later at a better price.Apr 15 10:09
schestowitzb) There may be tax advantages to be had which on their own are sufficient to give value to a patentApr 15 10:09
schestowitzc) there are (perceived) status effects to having a patent, both for the individuals as well as for the applicant-entityApr 15 10:09
schestowitz- Business interests are not constant. They change over time, and thereby the 'rationality' of pursuing a patent as wellApr 15 10:09

schestowitzI have only been on Diaspora* for a couple of weeks and I must say, this has been the most satisfying social networking experience I have had. I have never had Facebook (saw it as a “jump on the bandwagon” product from the start), but I did dabble in Google+, Instagram, Twitter and others before becoming completely disenchanted by the whole business model of me being the product and the social networks a mere advertising platform. It Apr 15 23:29
schestowitzwas a lose-lose situation. I was providing the data to the company and they in turn, were using it against me with targeted advertising, selling it to the highest bidder, and then selling advertising space to the same bidders within their advertising platform, who would then advertise to me based on information that I had provided to them. . .and so the cycle would perpetuate unchecked. Until I wised up, that is.Apr 15 23:30
schestowitzI looked into Ello and was initially impressed with what I found. I liked the idea of a public benefit corporation, but quickly lost interest when it became clear that if I didn’t have an iPhone, that I was going to be treated as a second-class citizen. While they weren’t serving advertising to me, at the end of the day, after repeated assurances that other platforms would soon be forthcoming, I gave up on them.Apr 15 23:30
schestowitzI gravitated back to Twitter for a time and still hit it up every now and again, but again, I largely found it rather boring and was reminded by stories here and there, that this wasn’t as much a public service that was being provided free of charge, but was an advertising business that I was exchanging my right to privacy in order to use.Apr 15 23:30

What attracted me initially is the concept that an entire social network could be decentralized, that my data was mine, that it wasn’t being used to sell me anything, and that it is a true “social” network. . .a place where thoughts, stories and ideas could be exchanged without wondering about the ulterior motive of a faceless corporation. The format allows me to explore and express my passions without fear of Apr 15 23:30

schestowitzThis is why true journalistic outlets like The Intercept are so important. Glenn Greenwald calls it “adversarial journalism”. Case in point. . . .Apr 16 17:52
schestowitzFamed Rolling Stone writer Matt Taibbi left the magazine to join Greenwald, Laura Poitras, and Jeremy Scahill in helping to grow First Look Media, the parent company of The Intercept. Taibbi was to hired create and manage a satirical and biting digital magazine called Racket. During its creation, Taibbi butted heads with First Look founder Pierre Omidyar, chief operating officer Randy Ching, and president John Temple over multiple issues,Apr 16 17:52

schestowitzThe story is detailed here if you wish to read the whole saga on your own. My point in bringing it up is to point out how journalism should be done. Greenwald, Poitras, Scahill and John Cook, former editor-in-chief at The Intercept pulled no punches in the telling of the Taibbi story, taking Omidyar and company to task for their part in the dysfunctional fiasco. Greenwald and company are independent contractors by their own design and it Apr 16 17:52

schestowitzOn my college years I did learn that nobody is really unbiased and balanced, but instead present propaganda as such. So many public universities at that time favoured socialism (universities here are almost untouchable), but the government started to lean to capitalism and in favour of the US, and private universities naturally followed up.Apr 16 18:02

schestowitzThe OpenBSD project makes a good and secure operating system, but has very tight money and resources so there is no OpenBSD marketing.Apr 16 19:44
schestowitzOn the other hand we have Microsoft, with truckloads of money available just for marketing, and of course is a marketing focused on making Microsoft look good.Apr 16 19:44
schestowitzThen we have lots of people that use Microsoft software despite severe technical, cost and privacy shortcomings.Apr 16 19:44

schestowitzHere’s the actual story: the state archive decided that now all of its material will be available on-line. That is: instead of researchers having to go to the building, ask for documents, review them there for a limited time, [copies of] the documents will be available on line. This is a great. The whole process is expected to take quite a long time (expected: 20 years[1]).Apr 14 21:01
schestowitzHowever this means that every document there is a document published. Thus it it has anything that is somewhat secret, it can’t be published as-is. Thus the copies published have to also pass censorship (which is generally fine. It’s a reasonable balance.Apr 14 21:01
schestowitzSo now you have professional historians and researchers. Those with the extra time (and ability. Think about it as someone not from Israel. “Ability” here includes a flight to Israel. Our country is indeed a fun place to be in, but some people won’t bother to do that just for one or two documents). For them the “old way” worked just fine. Furthermore, they had access to the original (pre-digitation, no censorship) copy of the Apr 14 21:01
schestowitzdocument and this will no longer be available.Apr 14 21:01
schestowitzI guess that in most cases this simply won’t be an issue. And in cases where it will be an issue, a procedure will have to be set to access to the original documents.Apr 14 21:01

schestowitzMy Journey To DiasporaApr 15 23:29
schestowitzI have only been on Diaspora* for a couple of weeks and I must say, this has been the most satisfying social networking experience I have had. I have never had Facebook (saw it as a “jump on the bandwagon” product from the start), but I did dabble in Google+, Instagram, Twitter and others before becoming completely disenchanted by the whole business model of me being the product and the social networks a mere advertising platform. It Apr 15 23:29
schestowitzwas a lose-lose situation. I was providing the data to the company and they in turn, were using it against me with targeted advertising, selling it to the highest bidder, and then selling advertising space to the same bidders within their advertising platform, who would then advertise to me based on information that I had provided to them. . .and so the cycle would perpetuate unchecked. Until I wised up, that is.Apr 15 23:29
schestowitzI looked into Ello and was initially impressed with what I found. I liked the idea of a public benefit corporation, but quickly lost interest when it became clear that if I didn’t have an iPhone, that I was going to be treated as a second-class citizen. While they weren’t serving advertising to me, at the end of the day, after repeated assurances that other platforms would soon be forthcoming, I gave up on them.Apr 15 23:30
schestowitzI gravitated back to Twitter for a time and still hit it up every now and again, but again, I largely found it rather boring and was reminded by stories here and there, that this wasn’t as much a public service that was being provided free of charge, but was an advertising business that I was exchanging my right to privacy in order to use.Apr 15 23:30

What attracted me initially is the concept that an entire social network could be decentralized, that my data was mine, that it wasn’t being used to sell me anything, and that it is a true “social” network. . .a place where thoughts, stories and ideas could be exchanged without wondering about the ulterior motive of a faceless corporation. The format allows me to explore and express my passions without fear of Apr 15 23:30

schestowitzThis is why true journalistic outlets like The Intercept are so important. Glenn Greenwald calls it “adversarial journalism”. Case in point. . . .Apr 16 17:52
schestowitzFamed Rolling Stone writer Matt Taibbi left the magazine to join Greenwald, Laura Poitras, and Jeremy Scahill in helping to grow First Look Media, the parent company of The Intercept. Taibbi was to hired create and manage a satirical and biting digital magazine called Racket. During its creation, Taibbi butted heads with First Look founder Pierre Omidyar, chief operating officer Randy Ching, and president John Temple over multiple issues,Apr 16 17:52

schestowitzThe story is detailed here if you wish to read the whole saga on your own. My point in bringing it up is to point out how journalism should be done. Greenwald, Poitras, Scahill and John Cook, former editor-in-chief at The Intercept pulled no punches in the telling of the Taibbi story, taking Omidyar and company to task for their part in the dysfunctional fiasco.

schestowitzOn my college years I did learn that nobody is really unbiased and balanced, but instead present propaganda as such.

schestowitzThen we have lots of people that use Microsoft software despite severe technical, cost and privacy shortcomings.Apr 16 19:44
