This stems from understanding that we all stand on the shoulders of giants. This means believing that we all add only a small drop to the vast pool of human knowledge. As such, the concept of &amp;#039;patenting an idea&amp;#039; is ridiculous to the humble person, because 99.9% of that idea is enabled by prior human knowledge and invention - and is nothing new. And that the number of 9s after the decimal is increasing - as any new human knowledge builds upon an ever expanding body of work. To claim that a trifling addition now becomes one&amp;#039;s sole property at the exclusion of others using it is a disgrace to the human race that prevents genuine progress from happening. The counterargument to this is that intellectual property allows a temporary monopoly to fund research. The counterargument to this counterargument is that the funding mechanisms for research need to be disrupted to allow more rapid progress.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;OSE considers these properties characteristic of a humble mindset:&lt;br /&gt;
*Bering teachable. Lack of a know-it-all attitude which prevents the individual from learning new things. Respecting that no matter how much one knows, there are always new insights and depths of knowing.&lt;br /&gt;
*Understanding the distinction between knowing theory and knowing how to put that theory into practice.&lt;br /&gt;
*Understanding that the more one knows, the more they are aware of how little they know&lt;br /&gt;
*Awareness of both one&amp;#039;s trifling insignificance - and of one&amp;#039;s importance. One&amp;#039;s importance is understanding that the initiative of a single person or a small group of people is how the work moves forward.&lt;br /&gt;
*Awareness that one can never know everything, and that what one does know may be incomplete and inaccurate - as in the basic premise of general semantics.&lt;br /&gt;
*Awareness that there are always people who are better than you at something. Or if there aren&amp;#039;t, there will be in the future.&lt;br /&gt;
And to top it all off, humility is a characteristic that allows one to not be trapped in the morasse of patent protection tendencies:&lt;br /&gt;
*Finding enclosure of intellectual property repugnant. This stems from understanding that we all stand on the shoulders of giants. This means believing that we all add only a small drop to the vast pool of human knowledge. As such, the concept of &amp;#039;patenting an idea&amp;#039; is ridiculous to the humble person, because 99.9% of that idea is enabled by prior human knowledge and invention - and is nothing new. And that the number of 9s after the decimal is increasing - as any new human knowledge builds upon an ever expanding body of work. To claim that a trifling addition now becomes one&amp;#039;s sole property at the exclusion of others using it is a disgrace to the human race that prevents genuine progress from happening.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
