schestowitz[TR2]I wrote to a British Morse code club via snail mail earlier in the autumnDec 17 12:29
schestowitz[TR2]but they never responded either by letter or by e-mail :(Dec 17 12:29
schestowitz[TR2]There are probably only about 10 to 12 non-bot visitors to the morse versionDec 17 12:29
schestowitz[TR2]per day.  Dec 17 12:29
schestowitz[TR2]I wonder if / how our Morse output could be tuned to make it more useful Dec 17 12:29
schestowitz[TR2]to people out there.  But that would require feedback from someone in the Dec 17 12:29
schestowitz[TR2]CW community.  Dec 17 12:29

schestowitz[TR2]i have an unproven theoryDec 17 12:30
schestowitz[TR2]many people become too overworked to reply to mailDec 17 12:30
schestowitz[TR2]EVEN if they read itDec 17 12:30
schestowitz[TR2]"Dec 17 12:49
schestowitz[TR2]I think many accounts fail to receive the mails.  I've had to follow up Dec 17 12:49
schestowitz[TR2]many important communications with SMS and phone calls and the recipientsDec 17 12:49
schestowitz[TR2]claim to never have gotten the mail.  Others reply every third or fourth  Dec 17 12:49
schestowitz[TR2]e-mail.  Then of those that do get the e-mail, theyu are unable to processDec 17 12:49
schestowitz[TR2]it correctly or easily due to ignorant or stubborn use of web mail UIs Dec 17 12:49
schestowitz[TR2]instead of proper, dedicated mail clients.  That last point is important.Dec 17 12:49
schestowitz[TR2]It's part of the micrsoftianism which aims to keep people overworked Dec 17 12:49
schestowitz[TR2]and treading water so that they don't have time or strength to step outDec 17 12:49
schestowitz[TR2]of line.  Dec 17 12:49

schestowitz[TR2]                                <p>Developers report a major performance boost, with internal tests showing speeds up by about 32% and lower memory use compared to the last version. Clip rendering, timeline actions, FFmpeg decoding, and effects like crop, mask, brightness, and saturation all improved significantly. Exporting is now about 23% faster thanks to changes that reduce CPU load during the export process. </p>Dec 17 14:47

schestowitz[TR2]"You are free to consider that G 4/19 on double patenting is another political decision.<br />I do not share this view <br /><br />In Reasons 76, the EBA noted that “The preparatory documents demonstrate with overwhelming certainty that there was a real and effective agreement that the European Patent Office should prohibit double patenting by taking into account"Dec 17 16:46

schestowitz[TR2]"You misunderstand my position as to the patent monopoly being its own dictionary.<br /><br />I agree with you that the primacy of the claims implies that definitions or statements only found in the description may not be read into the claims esp. to overcome prior art. It is up to the applicant or patent monopoly owner to enter them into the claims as explicit limitations if they are to be reliedDec 17 16:47
