WEIRD POST2

So you're not a young fellow.
I often assume on computer forums there're not too many aged folks - unlike
on Social or Hobbies forums. So I was wrong. Hrrrm, your life sounds no
winteresting, adventurous.

Anyways, something must be done abou tpiracy and sending our money to help
arguably richest countries on Earth. That they can't make enough money is
their problem.
Maybe they could Windows exchange for OIL!

OK barter is a violation of international monetary system, but really I know
Chinese steal & to a lesser degree Russians pirate.
Having small GDP is an interesting excuse. Can I walk in a store and say "I
got a cheap job, you ought to sell me this thing 4x cheaper than to a
gentleman bext in line?"
Most pirated soft comes from China, even if it looks like Malaysia, Iran or
Australia, it originates in China.
They have an immature concedpt of Intellectual Property.

Though the good news many of these same people make America great by working
for US companies, since American-birn kids seems to have developed dementia
in the past 15 years (?), great talents come to America from Asia these
years, and from Europe in decades prior.
SO it somehow equalizes our lossses with gains, but still the loss is
greater than gain
Scores of small American startups have been killed by Chinese "copy
machines".

At my company we put as much IT/patent info into FPGA as possible, only a
few engineers have access to source code (in C language).
SO it's hard to copy our product. Its brain is coded and you can hardly get
back from hash/hex code into source which is the ONLy way to understand how
this product - a Nanoparticles instrument works.
Even though I am an EE, there's lots of ME and software here//// so I was
forced to pick up.... that on top of 3 years of ME for RF/Microwave co (3D
modeling).

OK, now we're happier. If we sell it to China, I don't see a way for them
to steal it other than thru a dishonest engineer who reveals
blueprints/source code.
So it's not a hard-defined hardware you can hold in your hands, it's mostly
in FPGA. Try stealing that. You'd need millions of years with current
computer power.

if it wasn;t for Chinese rampant reverse engienering and software piracy
we'd not be sweating and wasting so much time on protections....
