On: Bradley Kuhn: I Think I Just Got Patented

My point is that there are many small problems which we solve as engineers every day that are too trivial to publish in a paper.

It is all well and good until some moron (genius?) comes along and patents these simple ideas.

Just push your source out in the open. Then you will have published every small idea that's in your code.

Publishing your stuff in an academic paper is not necessary for these purposes.
