What a joke.

The most funny about that is that people who push forward patents are
patent lawyers who have, at 99.9999 %, never programmed themselves,
and who do not know a heck about algorithms.

Would you really want to enter a programming contest ?

How many famous (that is, respected by their peers) pro-patent
programmers can you cite ?

Your arguments are empty.
