Science locked in safes... So I don't ruin business with the mangers

Is 2+2 the same thing as 2×2, or 4? The mathematician will answer yes and will add that this is the only combination of digits whose sum is the same as their product. The humanist will reflect on the point of view of the problem or something similar. The lawyer will turn off his cell telephone and ask, looking you in the eye “and how much do you want it to be”? Which of these attitudes is most beneficial to society?

The information erstwhile led to knowledge, and this in turn to wisdom. Why am I utilizing past tense? due to the fact that specified a regulation has ceased to apply in a crowd of online sensations, from which it is hard to extract the seeds of truth. No 1 in his right head can withstand specified an act of media space with unnecessary ballast, let alone extract reliable cognition from this sewer! Now knowledge, rather, is associated with a witch, as centuries ago, erstwhile old witches knew best, gave advice to all, due to the fact that in a long life they could gather more information than young people. Modern youth wisdom is most likely associated with the cleverness of various assholes on any subject.

However, scientists have always sought the fact about the planet around them, at least for the last 20 centuries. At the 21st century, they gave up unnecessary effort. The current “scientists” are looking for grants only, and those for investigating the fact are not given by sponsors.

Various inventions lie patented in safes, so as not to spoil business with mangers. Here we should set any spectacular example, but there is an interior contradiction, due to the fact that if I could mention specified an example, it would mean that individual in the manger failed to defender and the secret leaked, would cease to be a mystery. Before the war, an anecdote was told that individual had invented a reusable match, but a matchmaker's monopoly destroyed a task that would ruin it.

It would be worth a different approach. alternatively of exposing “freezing” patents, patents should be covered by an absolute right that the individual who buys the patent must implement it in production within a circumstantial period. If not, the patent returns to the first owner who can sale it again. Simple? It's besides easy for her to look forward to it. Lawyers, decently rewarded by whom it is necessary, will not let it.
