Until now in #Canada, the general term of an author's #copyright persisted for 50 years after their death. As of Dec 30, that will be extended for another 20 years, even for authors whose works were about to enter the public domain. This change obvs does nothing to incentivize their art—they're already dead.
It's protectionism of authors who produced their work with expectations of shorter copyright terms, and theft from the public who were entitled to free access.

Wild every time I learn about yet another archaeological site that was excavated 30 years ago and never published because the excavators like excavating way more than they like writing.
Spent more than an hour trying to hunt down any original publication on [redacted site] only to learn today that I was having such a hard time because one was never written and is in perpetual "someday..." mode!

On a project I was on previously there was a bit of an issue with staff turnover (academic salaries being often much lower than industry), all of the developers would have their pet ideas, finish them about halfway to three quarters of the way, and then leave for somewhere else, leaving no documentation behind..... our code was a mess!

if you can't adequately compensate your workers you are in the wrong business (even if -- especially if -- that "can't" is simply don't want to have lower profits)

Disagreeing with me doesn't mean you're stupid or ignorant. Come and talk to me as an equal. I've changed my views many times during this long life; I'll change them again before I die.
Treating people with contempt because they disagree with you — that *is* stupid, and it'll keep you ignorant. How can you learn if you never listen? How can you become wise if you never consider new ideas? If you never challenge your beliefs, how will you know when they're wrong?
So come. Let's talk.

@BarboftheBay I love this so much. You’re right! I think civil discourse is a skill that’s been lost over the years and decades. I love that thing you say about changing views. We evolve and grow.
