| schestowitz[TR2] | "Max, your question relates to how the courts should handle A.69, rather than the EPO. For the courts, I don't believe there is any issue, other than whether an allegedly infringing article is within the literal scope of the claim or is an equivalent. For validity, anticipation rather than obviousness is really only relevant for A.54(3) prior art, otherwise the UK 'squeeze' or the German Formstein will sort the problem.<br />My iss | Jul 06 01:38 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | ue is with the EPO and patentability. Equivalence and obviousness may be related concepts but I don't believe that equivalence is an issue for the EPO to consider. Primarily it is the job of the EPO organ to determine what the wording of the claim means before determining whether the prior art lies within that meaning or there is a lack of inventive step. I am saying that A.69 requires them to consider the specification in order to | Jul 06 01:38 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | <p>It's like Mediciens Sans Frontiers, only different. Let's start with some basic claims. The Plasma desktop environment is great. It's also very fast and responsive, and seem to be getting better and better all the time. You're not likely to suffer from its performance much, and yet it can be made even sprightlier. Ahoy. </p> | Jul 06 05:05 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | <p> In parallel, until very recently ( Plasma 6 to be more accurate), Plasma's default screenshot tool Spectacle would take screenshots with borders and shadows enabled, and no GUI option to turn these off. This would result in images with a roughly 200-300px frame, composed of a lightly shaded alpha layer. Annoying if you want clean pictures of specific application windows. Well, tod | Jul 06 05:05 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | ay, I want to show you how to kill two dinosaurs with one meteor. A tweak that will give you both performance improvements and borderless, shadowless screenshots. </p> | Jul 06 05:05 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | Watson senior and Jr managed IBM with a 10-1 employee to manager ratio. It’s what the US army used during WW2 and they emulated that. When Gerstner came on board IBM in the 1990’s it was down to 6-1. He promptly cut excess headcount (60k over 18 months) and moved the manager to employee ratio back to 15-1. Today IBM is running at 6.5 employees to 1 manager. Looks like it’s time for a haircut. IBM has always been over managed | Jul 06 17:01 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | which results in its almost 2X overhead cost vs its nearest competitors. Being over managed when you are the only game in town is an affordable executive perk/luxury.
