Working Code Podcast - Episode 033: Software Patents

Do you write "new and original" code that is "useful" and has a "non-obvious function"? If so, your code may qualify for a patent.

This week, the crew - which has absolutely no legal training whatsoever - talk about patents, copyrights, research & development tax credits, building software, job hopping, and best practices.
