    Exploring FreeBSD service(8) basics
    [06:35] schestowitz
    [06:35] schestowitz

    A service in BSD land is a rc.d script that can be invoked on boot, or by the root operator after booting.

    [06:35] schestowitz

    These are table stakes for any online guide, but I often see people making the same mistakes, or not doing things in the most efficient way. I think this might be due to Linux people porting their guides, without understanding BSD specifics. I thought it was worth taking a quick look.

    AI in 2024 What does the future hold?
    [10:29] schestowitz
    [10:29] schestowitz

    2023 was an epic year for artificial intelligence. In a year when industry raced faster than academia in machine learning (source), the state of the art for AI evolved to include increasingly larger amounts of data, and bringing to bear sufficient computing resources to support new use cases remained a challenge for many organisations.

    [10:29] schestowitz

    With the rise of AI, concerns were not far behind. According to an article published by Stanford, BLOOMs training run emitted 25 times more carbon than a single air traveller on a one-way trip from New York to San Francisco.

    In light of these trends and challenges, what do we foresee in the AI space this year and where is the AI community focusing its energy? Lets first look back [10:29] schestowitz at 2023 and then explore expectations for AI in 2024.

    "The board does not share the appellant's view. Rather, the claims should be taken by themselves, i.e. without relying on the description and drawings, and tested against the broadest possible or objectively reasonable construction which would occur to the skilled reader. This is because Article 84 EPC stipulates that the matter [13:55] schestowitz for which protection is sought is defined by the claims. It does not require to rely on any other part of the application documents."
    The same is expressed in other recent decisions (T 2764/19 and T 1705/17).
    The USPTO applies the same interpretation principle (MPEP 2111)
    This assumes the terms of the claim are clear. The patent monopoly at hand is an example where the term gathered sheet is not so clear and t [13:55] schestowitz he lack of clarity was cured by the specific definition provided in the description for this term.
    What is clear from the case law is that an unclaimed feature disclosed in the description cannot be relied upon to distinguish the claimed subject matter over the prior art. This would be an inadmissible interpretation , to take the word in the sense of Art 69. It is up to the applicant to amend the claim so as to make the unclai [13:55] schestowitz med feature a claim limitation having legal effect.
    Naturally, the description and the drawings if any are generally necessary for skilled readers to gain understanding of the terms of the claims. But this is to be distinguished from an interpretation allowing unclaimed features to be taken into account in the assessment of patentability conditions."
