John Carmack on expert witnesses and 'non literal' copying
Does this mean if I write code that does X at company A, and then move to company B and am asked to write code that does X, I would be copyright infringing my own code I wrote at company A unless I purposely went out of my way to write it completly differently?Because chances are I still remember how I did it, or even if I don't, chances are I'll come up with pretty much the same way, as it's inherent to my code style and thought process.I guess it's something I'll be taking great care in doing if this ever happens to me.
