C’mon CNN, enough already.

Can’t resist the reblog. Sorry.

Dance like you’re stamping on a human face forever, love like you’ve been in a serious car crash that minced the front of your brain, stab like no one can arrest you, and live like there’s no such thing as God.

Warren Ellis

I spend a lot of time looking at quotations. I found this one and I don’t know where it’s from or when he said it, but it’s so perfect. It really sums Warren up nicely: simultaneously the best and worst thing you’ve ever known.

The basic problem with patents is that you’re trying to assign property rights to something that doesn’t deserve property rights. The fact that these property rights end up in the hands of financial owners as opposed to the original inventors just exacerbates the problem. The basic problem is that Chris [Dixon] and a bunch of engineers can be sitting at Hunch designing some amazing new feature and somebody unbeknownst to them has a patent on this feature and never actually implemented it and can now screw them over… It’s just not right, it shouldn’t exist.
