Jaffe: In economics they are called network effects, expectations, and tipping points.
Network effects: Java value affected by how many people are writing Java
Expectations: you care about how big a platform is going to be in the future
Tipping points: "when you bring together network effects and expectations... success feeds success and failure breeds failure"
Jaffe: There's a point where everyone believes someone is going to be the winner.
Oracle: What is the importance of timing on network success?
Jaffe: It's a huge advantage to be there early, if you come late, you're playing catch-up.
man doesn't this just point to like Oracle frittering away a huge head start despite holding a weird monopoly over a ubiquitous platform
Jaffe: The size of the developer network is what makes Java valuable. ...They've spent a lot of money in [expanding the dev community]
this is so weird
Jaffe: Monetization is just a fancy word for making money.
Jaffe: It frequently makes sense for the owner of a platform to make it available for an open source license...
Jaffe: ....that doesn't take away from the royalty-bearing licenses that the device manufacturers pay.
Back to how many things run Java. Again, automobiles. Java is in your car. 
Oracle: How does Google make money? Jaffe: Google makes money almost entirely by selling advertising.
Says at the time of this controversy, was making money through ads from searches on desktop,
but that everyone knew mobile was supplanting desktop.
Jaffe says "it was crucial for Google to ensure that as the transition occurred" people were still searching via Google
Google objects, Alsup has to explain to jury the role of an expert witness (not to testify on facts of the case)

Jaffe's testimony is, like, fine, I think the thing that bothers me the most is how much he gets to opine on law
(he's not supposed to, but come, he is)
I think he already did a "IANAL, but"https://twitter.com/guan/status/733006707987714048 …
Jaffe says there's an Android chicken & egg problem. Android needed developers to make its phone a success, & needed devices manufacturers
He's basically saying that devs wouldn't write for Android without a platform like Java, device manufacturers wouldn't pick up w/o devs
Is he going to go into the history of the iPhone???
Jaffe: Google solved this problem by using the Java API. Google: OBJECTION, your honor.
Alsup: I think this beyond the scope of what an economist can say. Oracle: *tries again* From an economist standpoint, how did Google ...
Google objects again. Alsup allows it, says Google can cross examin later.
