> they deliberately didn't patent it If you'll check the historical record you'll find, for example, patents US2524035A (Bardeen&Brattain, Three-electrode circuit element utilizing semiconductive materials, oldest priority 1948-02-26) and US2569347A (Shockley, Circuit element utilizing semiconductive material, oldest priority 1948-06-26). > How 'bout the amplifiers on the optical fibers? patents.google.com... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

I don't have that hope with past "due diligence" track records. Performing a quick peek for the author at Google Patents I only see mentions of his involvement with neural networks in past work [1]. I am not an expert in patents but I assume that they will apply there and/or publish papers before the company is launched. Except if the breakthrough is not there or it is really revolutionary but statistics are not... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

Yeah. Last I'd heard (2018?) they were trying to get into the 3d printing business, but since their main site doesn't say anything to that note I have to believe it's not going too well. https://patents.google.com/?assignee=Xerox+Corporation&sort=new. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

Its actually a hard problem: the massive boom that's required to provide reach is inherently quite unstable, not in the mm or cm but we're talking decimeters here. Some of the core tech of FBR dating back ~15 yrs addresses this kind of dynamic stabilization. FBR is impressive and they've built decent an IP.

The process of analysing some of the patents is quite tedious I have to admit. Google Patents (https://patents.google.com/) is great and all, but it's not fun to browse patents. So far I haven't found a better way of doing this. If you are interested in just the gist of some of these patents you are welcome to read my notes daily on them here: https://100yearpatents.com.

Is it too late to get CO? Can you please tell me how you found this one, and how you go about finding coins like this early, before they launch? I always miss out on coins in the early phases (like ico). And I'm trying to find some early gems to invest in. Do you have any specific websites you check for them? Or, any specific youtube/twitter people to find them? I did find CO on a site icodrops.com, but not sure... Source: over 2 years ago

I have recently been trying to get into some IGO/IDO/ICO launchpads but after looking at many launchpads on multiple blockchains I am having trouble finding any that can be used by people in the US. I have been using icodrops.com to find upcoming and current launches but every single one of the projects I was interested in was not available in the US. Are there none out there? If there are some out there at a US... Source: over 2 years ago
