#3I always thought Hotz an interesting character. This paragraph adds to that impression:
"What he didn’t take into account is that comma isn’t run by rational actors in suits sitting on a committee. It’s run by me, George Hotz. I’m willing to lose $1M before I give him $10k. We will hire an amazing legal team, fight this, and while doing so invalidate his patents so they can’t be used against anyone else. Not because it’s rational, but because it’s the right thing to do. No patent troll will ever get a dollar from comma."
I find that relatable.

Millions for defense, but not one cent for tribute!

Strikes me that a lot of today's ills would be solved (or replaced) by more individual agency.
Gold applause to Hotz.

He is definitely not afraid of this clown.

#8Any engineer who has ever filed a software patent soon realizes that the entire patent system in America (at least with respect to software) is a scam. It seems to be designed to enrich lawyers and tax engineers.
It's almost like all the kids in school who failed out of CS 101 went to law school and cooked up a scheme to tax their classmates who actually stuck it out and built something.
Why the hell do we have a system that gives a 20 year monopoly to assholes for shit they cook up on a cocktail napkin over lunch with their lawyer? This is how we used to brainstorm stuff to patent. It's utter bullshit. I refuse to participate in creating more bullshit patents.

His Lex Fridman interview was fascinating. I knew this would be his response just from the headline. Surprised the troll didn't do even a little research.
