14:28 schestowitz[TR2];
14:28 schestowitz[TR2]; Its rare to see competitors in the security space unite behind a single cause. The fact that Endor Labs, Aikido Security, Arnica, Amplify, Jit, Kodem, Legit Security, Mobb, Orca Security, and others have come together to support Opengrep is a special moment indeed, Varun Badhwar, CEO of Endor Labs, wrote in a blog post. And we should address the elephant in the room we
14:28 schestowitz[TR2]; all benefit from a standardized, open source SAST engine, and we all contribute community rules and improvements for it. But that is exactly the point. The promise of Opengrep means that developers and application security teams will get a better baseline product, no matter who their AppSec vendor of choice is.

16:19 schestowitz[TR2]; "Patent owner-friendly? I think so. The test whether the reader of the patent monopoly would understand that acts outside the scope of the claim nevertheless infringe is, I read, whether that reader would see the variant as another way to get to the same result as the patented invention delivers. The point of having a patent monopoly system is to stimulate design-around R&D. Why should any rational person finance such activity
16:19 schestowitz[TR2]; if the fruits of that R&D are going to be held by the courts to be infringing acts? Is the UPC serious about promoting technical progress in Europe, or is it more concerned to reward its biggest (and ugliest) user/sponsors?"

16:20 schestowitz[TR2]; "A good question. My experience leads me to suspect that, in reality, the practice outlined in GL B-III, 3.2.3 3.2.5 is more honoured in the breach than in the observance.Another interesting question is what will happen with the description of the patent monopoly if, after the EBA's ruling, "gathered sheet" is interpreted without reference to the description and the patent monopoly is maintained based upon
16:20 schestowitz[TR2]; the claims as originally granted.If established case law were followed in that instance, the patent monopoly proprietor would not be required to make any amendments to the description. Indeed, any attempts to make such amendments would be rejected as contrary to R.80 (as explained at GL H-II, 3.1 "amendments are admissible only if they represent a genuine attempt to overcome a ground for opposition").<b
16:20 schestowitz[TR2]; r />Thus, for no reason other than the EPO's current practice on claim interpretation (combined with the EPO's rather lax approach to reviewing the disclosures of the description), upholding the patent monopoly as granted would create an Angora Cat. It is therefore more than a little ironic that the President's justification for upholding current EPO practice is preventing the creation of Angora Cats. Go figure."

18:36 schestowitz[TR2]; AI means different things to different people, and there is no agreement yet on what it really is. IBM's efforts on "AI" has always focused on its potential applications in the business world...automated analysis of medical data, for instance, to facilitate diagnosis, treatment and dr-g development. Automated analysis of credit card transactions to spot fraud activity.
18:36 schestowitz[TR2]; In other words, the elimination of human effort.
18:36 schestowitz[TR2]; Businessmen and investors aren't funding all this stuff to benefit mankind or benefit the world or anything like that. They never were. They want to dispense with human labor, just as they always have. But we already have masses of college-educated people who wouldn't make it as grocery store clerks. How many kids do you see these days that can't do basic arithmetic without a calculator? Who can't write a code segment, or design a
18:36 schestowitz[TR2]; basic circuit, or analyze a basic engineering or science problem, without calling on the AI of the day?
18:36 schestowitz[TR2]; It's food for thought.
