Piracy

  • You're clearly not a programmer lol

  • A corporation is simply a legal entity that anybody can register. You could have one tomorrow morning if you wished.

    I do own a corporation, even if I'm alone. It's just that I own all the shares and equity privately. I'm also a business owner because I run a business with that corporation. But a business owner can also run a business without a corporation if he chooses to.

    Now, you can do a lot of things with a corporation depending on your goals and aspirations. It has different rules, laws and purposes than a normal employee or a self-employed individual.

    Examples: hire people, tax benefits, grow larger, own assets, sue and be sued, raise capital, loan/borrow money, go public, etc.

    A corporation is what you make of it.

  • Yeah, exactly. I think it depends on your goals and aspiration.

    The more a company/corporation grows, the more likely it is to become souless and evil.

    For now, I'm a "little guy" and I love the freedom that comes with it. The moment you bring employees and people, then you have to start managing and stuff.

    We'll see what the future holds.

  • Technically, not all corporations are evil.

    For example, I'm a solo-entrepreneur and I own my own company/corporation and I'm the only one in it. I don't think I'm evil. (For now??)

    But I get what you mean. I'm assuming evil comes with size, power and influence

  • Yeah, some people here seem to be Firefox diehard.

    But Firefox seems to be lagging behind other browsers.

    Pretty much everything is based on Chromium these days.

  • H h h , th t's re lly wesome. Congr tz to the pl yers.

  • Who's the bot? Me? Or you?

  • Quack, quack, quack.

  • That's a good start.

    But I'm assuming people going to McD are unhealthy in the first place.

  • Yeah, the first one to stand up has to be the most courageous. He becomes the leader and example. Others might decide to follow (or not).

    In many capitalist/right-wing countries like the US, more often than not, money is king.

  • True, but it takes big balls. By doing so, you're provoking a big corporation that has all the resources to destroy your life.

  • How dare you!?! Everybody knows that spaghetti is better.

  • I never said there's something wrong with paper books.

    I'm even reading one right now. Lord of Rings paper version.

    But for computer science students textbooks, it's heavy, inconvenient and spacey.

    The internet or even PDFs are better.

    Why?

    It's easier to do research, CTRL+F and copy/paste some programming code.

  • Exactly lol. If I were you, I'd try to sell it.

    If it's still relevant, you could also give it to younger students.

  • That might work in other domains other than computer sciences.

    But from my experience, nobody cared about books and papers in computer science. Everyone is more comfortable with technology.

    You can easily Google or find things on the internet.
