David O Toole was contacted by the US Government regarding his lisp hacking.

He posted a vague warning about it on the lispgames mailing list and mentioned on the IRC that "it was all over".

All his blogs, twitter and any traces of his code have disappeared from the internet.

I've been unable to contact him in the last few months.

DTO has great code and about 99 projects going at once.

BUT

I swear to Sussman he deletes his code about every other year.

>>40 Sorry for the shitty video hosting

>>41 I've consolidated most of my various related code into Blocky, not erased it. However, I've changed my website several times, and I have a tendency to rename repositories.

Real question for "The REAL DTO"

Hey when you read Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus was it because
1. it reminded you of ORG mode?
1.1 as inspiration for your new object model?
1.1.1 it can fold nicely?

Fuck patents.

Protip: become anon, or release your code as anon, that way they will never come after you.

I think ProTip™ is owned by GITHUB

I like to publish patent infringing code into the public domain. One would have to do some serious data analysis to trace that code back to me.

Unless you use i2p/tor/freenet to publish you can be traced, since IP and public proxies have logs(ISP logs IP connections).

Every industry has one. The free-thinking rebel that redefines the rules. He says what no-one else will say and does what no-one else will do. Fuelled by raw passion, he seizes an art form by the throat and drags it to its apex. What they invented, he makes it sing. His peers hate him but the public love his style. At once he intimidates and inspires; breaking down the walls that secure some yet block others. Welcome to David O Toole's Lisp video game engine.

Your post is beautiful. Keep posting!

I know that. The point is if they really wanted to nail me for something like that, they'd have to do serious effort. What are the chances they'd invest that effort for the work I've published anonymously? I'm willing to bet next to nothing.

Shut up retard. No one would go after you.  If it's patented, the panent is openly viewable too, and so anyone of sufficient ability could write their own implementation.

It's the use of code in a commerical product that would get their goat.

some of you are budding essayists it seems.

maybe some random millionaire doing a Lisp startup, will appear out of nowhere to offer you a job over lunch, where you get paid to write one-paragraph essays on 4chan about him.

I take it you are a millionaire doing a Lisp startup, but, as you rather poignantly point out, you aren't going to offer any of us here a job just for our literary exercises? Oh my, I woe the missed opportunity!

Name: Toole !!li7+m9VxRTkcfW+ 2011-09-09 9:28

>>55 Proves you didn't read the original post, since otherwise you'd know that I was the one invited to lunch, not the one doing the inviting. In >>54 I was saying maybe HE will offer YOU a job next.

But that random millionaire doing a Lisp startup was inviting you to lunch not to offer a job, but to convince you to use his code in your Lisp video game engine and then sue you for patent infringement! So we have missed the bullet here, basically, didn't we?

Wrong again, he doesn't even own the patent anymore.

If he doesn't own the patent anymore, then what are you fearing? I think I must have misunderstood something.

David O'Toole hasn't posted on /prog/ in days, could the FBI have him locked up?

The FBI hasn't posted on /prog/ in days, could I have them locked up?
Could the FBI be me?
Could I be the NSA?
Or is there another, less sinister reason that I like to rectally probe young men?

The truth is out there!
