The subtle stories behind piracy
Dave Gutteridge just wrote a rather nerdy, rambling but interesting article called Windows Is Free in which he explains that the choice between Linux and Windows is effectively a choice between two free products. I have noticed the same thing with other software companies. There is a phase in the life of any piece of software where piracy threatens its existence. It’s not during the earlier stages when a program needs, above all, to be taken up by as many people as possible. Once a program is dominating the market, piracy helps again; this time it works to suppress any competition. It’s in the middle stages, when a company needs extra revenue to grow and develop its product and support new users, that piracy can do the most damage.

Youngest Planet Ever Discovered Offers Unique View Of Planet Formation
Using radio observatories in the UK and US and computer simulations, a team of astronomers have identified the youngest forming planet yet seen. "The new object, designated HL Tau b, is the youngest planetary object ever seen and is just 1 percent as old as the young planet found in orbit around the star TW Hydrae that made the news last year. HL Tau b gives a unique view of how planets take shape, because the VLA image also shows the parent disk material from which it formed," one of the astronomers said.

Alaskan Eskimos' High Rates Of Artery Plaque Could Be From High Smoking

Researchers said heart protection that should come with Eskimos' high fish diet may be negated by smoking.
