-TechBytesBot/#techbytes-ipkitten.blogspot.com | [Guest post] Decoding the General Court in design law – adding matter to the prior art? - The IPKatJul 08 06:53
schestowitz[TR2]"The General Court held that "the differences between the designs at issue do not give rise to a different overall impression in that they have only a limited impact on the informed user." It seems very well possible to me that the court acknowledges the difference (namely the added 3D shading) yet found it to give no different overall impression."Jul 08 06:53

schestowitz[TR2]                                        <p>I have a lot of customer repairs in right now, and most are awaiting new parts (mostly SMD PLCC sockets, as I have run out). In the meantime, I bought a faulty Amiga 600 motherboard, which Karl Dyson (Retro32) pointed me to. It was available for a very low price. Let’s see if I can fix it. </p>Jul 08 11:06

schestowitz[TR2]" Excellent historical perspective but you cannot really consider selling anything in the USA having the brand name "Indian Bowel Movement " (IBM) except perhaps for laxatives. Then again, since AK wants to move everything to his motherland, India, this might be the perfect opportunity for those who are constipated and in dire need of immediate relief. After all, IBM can satisfy the masses in the attempt to be all things to everyonJul 08 11:57
schestowitz[TR2]e. Of course, IBM will still fail in the delivery of technology but the fall back plan would be have an IBM Consulting Ultra Senior Partner available on a 24 x7 basis to talk around the problem and provide word salad games like the current US Vice President. "Jul 08 11:57

schestowitz[TR2]" Any chance that we can make it go "harder, faster,harder, faster, faster", baby (sort of like like an addict on speed ?) We gotta have that IBM engine to fire out by the end of Q3 2024. Q4 is always a drag and oh so dismal. So, come on AK and JK, and light up the funeral pyre.Jul 08 11:58
schestowitz[TR2]And, most important - you gotta enjoy the ride downhill ! After all, you guys created it. "Jul 08 11:58

schestowitz[TR2]Four words and a letter. Watson. Code. Assistant. For. Z. This is not only a complete grift, it is also a major pillar in IBM's AI play. McDonald's voice order taking system was once also a major pillar. But it does not, did not and cannot work and is now retired. Get "Watson Code Assistant for Z" and try it out. It has no chance of working on any real COBOL program. And if IBM works really hard on it, in five years, it still won'tJul 08 11:58
schestowitz[TR2] work largely because it is management driven and not engineering driven.Jul 08 11:58
schestowitz[TR2]Will AI save IBM?Jul 08 11:58
schestowitz[TR2]IBM will get a few mugs to waste money on what they offer. They will sell that as evidence that AI is IBM's future and maybe pick off one or two more marks as a result. But since this garbage is garbage, sooner or later no more patsies will be sitting down at this table. Mothers and fathers are already teaching children to beware of IBM carnival barkers. They use "IBM hybrid cloud" as a parable for the mistaken life choices that caJul 08 11:58
schestowitz[TR2]n be made by being seduced by sociopaths. Investing your business' future in IBM AI is basically just giving your money to the hustlers and hoping to retire before this facade comes crashing down and your employer wants some sort of accounting.Jul 08 11:58
schestowitz[TR2]I'm not kidding: Watson Code Assistant For Z is one of the premiere AI offerings that IBM has. Get it and try it and rate it.Jul 08 11:58
