schestowitzIt appears that you are using an option available to a court (UK comments in the nature of comparative analysis) as some type of de facto required step in a court's opinion.Feb 25 19:36
schestowitzI am aware of no such requirement in any Sovereign's treatment of law anywhere in the world.Feb 25 19:36
schestowitzYou then add on a type of populace "expectation" that appears to bolster the optional technique as more than a mere option with "impatient for the arrival of the pan-European UPC."Feb 25 19:36
schestowitzI do not think comparative analysis has any causal link as you appear to implicate.Feb 25 19:36
schestowitzDoes the pathway for the pan-European UPC require (or even suggest) that the individual Sovereigns engage in comparative analysis in their treatment of existing law?Feb 25 19:36

schestowitz<blockquote>Feb 26 09:24
schestowitz <p>Even though Chrome OS is based on Linux (Gentoo Linux, to be exact), you can't run traditional desktop Linux applications. One solution to this problem is Crouton, a script that sets up a chroot of Ubuntu or Debian Linux on top of Chrome OS. While this does allow many people to use Chrome OS who otherwise couldn't, it's a hacky solution and requires enabling Developer Mode (which turns off most of Chrome OS' security features). </p>Feb 26 09:24

schestowitz "for the AmeriKat it was the finding that the deal structure meant that Allergan retained ownership interests such that the IPR could continue as Allergan being a "patent owner"."Feb 26 14:37
schestowitzI completely agree.Feb 26 14:37
schestowitzThe only reservation that I had with the decision was that the PTAB did not come out and use the words: sham deal.Feb 26 14:37

I'm thinking of moving away from Windows (perhaps in the next couple of years) but my experience with Linux so far has been less than stellar...Feb 27 00:06
schestowitz"Thank you 🙏 anyway:))Feb 27 00:06
schestowitz"Ubuntu is the most windows like, fewest command line alternative IMHO.  You're rarely at a prompt and when you need to, there's a GREAT community of online forums where you can literally cut-n-paste your way through it.  In no time at all, you'll be an expert at commands!  :DFeb 27 00:07

schestowitzIt is anything but boring. All the comments, but the first, show that the situation is not as honky dory as one might think.Feb 27 20:51
schestowitzHaving witnessed what can happen to a member of the Boards if he does not behave as how he is expected to do, I would guess that becoming a member of the Boards is not as interesting as it used to be.Feb 27 20:51
schestowitzIn the past, I do not know a case in which the renewal was ever at stake. It was quasi automatic. Now, the renewal for another 5 years period is only possible if the “performance” of the member is found to comply with rules which are not public. See R 12c and 12d as amended by suggestion of the present tenant of the job of EPO president.Feb 27 20:51
schestowitzThe cooling-off period has been set at two years. The criterion according to which the former member may take a job, paid or even unpaid, are also not public.Feb 27 20:51
schestowitzAnybody joining the Boards has to bring a certain professional experience with him, and is not younger than around 40.Feb 27 20:51
schestowitzWho would then considering leaving his home country, and severing any ties with his national security and pensions system, even for 12000€ a month?Feb 27 20:51
schestowitzThis is especially the case when he is working as a qualified representative, as he is not sure he can go back to work again as qualified representative should his term not be renewed. It might force some people to pursue a job in an anonymous way, which is never good.Feb 27 20:51
schestowitzThe offer seems prima facie only interesting for people having a safety net, for instance, having the possibility to go back to a national civil service from which they were detached to perform their duties at the EPO. Even in this case it is not guaranteed that the two years cooling-off period will not apply.Feb 27 20:51

schestowitzScreen? What? In 1970, the high school I attended had no computers of any kind. It did have an acoustic modem (see the movie War Games) hooked up to a terminal. The terminal was connected to a printer and a keyboard. You, literally, dialed the number of the computer at the university, put the handset of the phone on the modem, and logged in. Screen! Where do people get such ideas?Feb 28 18:16
schestowitzThe printer, of course, wasn’t dot matrix; it had a print head like an IBM typewriter. It printed ASCII, and that’s all. Of course, there was ASCII art.Feb 28 18:16
schestowitzBTW, the students’ programs were input, originally, on cards with dots penciled in. If you wrote from scratch on the keyboard, you’d monopolize the terminal for too long. Once input the first time, you could store your programs on punched tape.Feb 28 18:16
schestowitzI’ve read that the earliest digital computers were programmed in machine language. Not assembly. Machine language. You decided what instruction came next, looked up the op code for that on a piece of paper, and input it. When programmers were REAL men and REAL women!Feb 28 18:16

schestowitz I like this experiment to make patent attorneys more culturally aware. It would be great to see more radical commentary on the meaning of patent texts, such as Derrida's idea that the original complexity of text cannot ever be known (i.e. deconstruction and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deconstruction), and how this may relate to a patent.Mar 01 02:45
-TechBytesBot/#techbytes-en.wikipedia.org | Deconstruction - WikipediaMar 01 02:45
schestowitzAlso a feminist interpretation of patent claims would be fascinating, or interpretation by a dialectical method (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dialectic).Mar 01 02:45
-TechBytesBot/#techbytes-en.wikipedia.org | Dialectic - WikipediaMar 01 02:46
schestowitzHowever I guess also that perhaps patent attorneys are not ready for their claims to be places under such scrutiny, and the patent system as a practical matter could probably not handle such complexity. The existential implications would be great if we suddenly realised that our claims do not necessarily mean what we thought they meant, and that language was perhaps never capable of capturing what was meant.Mar 01 02:46

schestowitz <p>All in all, it's hard to see how this mess can be fixed without scrapping the system and—perhaps—starting again from scratch. As drastic as that sounds, the current Supreme Court challenge may, ironically, provide a golden opportunity to revamp the fatally flawed existing institutional arrangements behind Aadhaar, and provide the Indian government with a fresh opportunity to learn from the mistakes that brought it to this point. </p>Mar 01 16:15

schestowitz"Mar 01 17:41
schestowitzApplying them to patents, it seems to this blogger that the last approach is not relevant, since, by definition, a patent has only one reader, namely the skilled person in the art."Mar 01 17:41
schestowitzHere's a hint for the next writing attempting comparing anything to patent law: Get a clue as to patent law first.Mar 01 17:41
schestowitzThe reader is perhaps the MOST relevant of any of the three.Mar 01 17:41
schestowitzTake for granted that a subject exists (else, why bother?), and the author portion is only as good as what is reflected in the end product - which is driven by how well the material is made to suit not just one reader, but several distinct readers.Mar 01 17:41
schestowitzOne reader is the examiner - to whose audience is the most immediate in the life of an application, and if not passing that person, then (most likely) no other audience may matter.Mar 01 17:41
schestowitzA second reader is the judge/jury. This takes much more skill and craft, as a bit of projecting into the future is required (the so-called "scriviner's art"). This aspect is necessary as an adjunct in the eventuality that enforcement necessarily involves the court system.Mar 01 17:41
schestowitzA third reader is the competition. One needs to be adept enough to reveal enough substance that competition will recognize the sturdiness of the vehicle (this overlaps with the second audience to an extent), but also provides enough strength to both not be some paper tiger of an easy design-around (as happens with those clamoring for exacting picture claims), and enough flexibility and layers that the item may lend itself to be a usefulMar 01 17:41
schestowitzplatform for a potential of family members.Mar 01 17:41
schestowitzThe Person Having Ordinary Skill In The Art is NOT an actual audience.Mar 01 17:41
schestowitz"Audience" is not what term is for. It is both an unknown and unknowable construct at the time of writing, and at best may serve as a tool in addressing the other actual audiences.Mar 01 17:42

schestowitz"Mar 01 17:42
schestowitz Neil's observation that the only reader is the PHOSITA will be understood by readers like me as nothing more than a tart statement of the simple unassailable governing law, that the patent is to be construed in the Patent Office and the courts through the prism of the skilled person.Mar 01 17:42
schestowitzUnless Neil was being deliberately provocative. Were you Neil? I doubt it.Mar 01 17:42
schestowitzPerhaps it is a consequence of living in the land of "central claiming", the land that gave its patent system to Japan, Korea and China (although I think not) but my view is that drafting works out best for the inventor in the long run when the drafter has in mind also as reader a non-specialist judge of the Supreme Court or the CEO of your client's ugliest competitor. One wants to implant, in the mind of that reader, a considered verdict,Mar 01 17:42
schestowitzthe claimed subject matter corresponds to a contribution to the art that is not only new, inventive and straightforward to implement, but also of serious commercial importance and value. In your drafting, tell a captivating story of problem addressed, and solution imaginatively found, that is an easy read. Make it difficult for such readers to wave away the claim as not worthy of a patent, not deserving of 20 years of exclusive rights.Mar 01 17:42
schestowitzThe law does not require one to draft in that way, and you might get no thanks from your client. Worse, your legal colleagues who earn their crust as litigators will be appalled, and might say so to your client. You will need to be a Master (or Mistress) of your craft, to draft wide enough claims and then to hold your own against the disparagement of the Fancy Dan litigators. But when the competitor bends the knee (or in extremis when theMar 01 17:42
schestowitzcourt declines to find fault with your claim) you will get your reward. He who laughs last laughs loudest.Mar 01 17:42
