Some seem to think that if anyone uses a single Rybka-like idea, that excuses the code copying done to create Rybka. They are incapable of delineating between source code and ideas.mloftus955 wrote:The manner of the way the questions are asked is rather odd.
Do you have a predetermined answer to your questions?
Please answer yes or no.
It looks to me that anyone who develops a top engine today must go through a bunch of bs because of Rybka.

Can you imagine the same arguments being used to justify cloning Rolex watches? Even if you build a watch that was nothing like a Rolex they would be pointing out that every watch uses the same principle and therefore how can you criticize these Rolex clones? Where did you get the idea for the hour hand? The minute hand? Where did you get YOUR ideas for a watch? Then of course they would accuse you of being a hypocrite.
