Listen Later

This is a feature cast, an episode of The Command Line Podcast.
In the intro I gave another brief travel update as I am leaving right after releasing this episode for Brussels to participate in the EU Hackathon. I have booked my travel to Paris for the first full week of December. Speaking of events, Cory will be in DC November 22nd and I will be interviewing him at a live book event followed by Q&A. Another event, which I won’t be attending, but looks worth checking out is the Indiana Linux Fest.
The hacker word of the week this week is fontology.
The feature this week is a rant on how copyright is becoming toxic. This is partly informed by currently events and partly by my current and recent reading.
