发帖数: 578 | 1 tnnd. Just found a patent " fuel cell aircraft"
the problem is that guy never built a aircraft. He just draw several pictures
and then write a patent cover all possibility what a fuel cell aircraft looks
like.
If so, I can write patents like "fuel cell boat", "fuel cell submarine", "fuel
cell bicycle" and " fuel cell everything".
what are those patent examiners doing?
Just curious, if someone really built a fuel cell aircraft, need to pay patent
fee to that sucker?

According to my limited knowledge, only the patent claims define the legal
scope of the patent. The inventors try to write claims as broader as he can,
but the patent examiner will allow claims as narrow as possible. Study the
claim part carefully, and determine what exactly it covers. So if one aspect

发帖数: 43 | 19 我鼓励楼主让你老婆试一下，反正就是几千块钱 （如果在网上买用过的PLI的复习材料
更是花不了几个钱）。我有好几个朋友跟你老婆情况很像，就是考了patent bar，然后
在law firm里面做patent agent。有的人选择part time读law school，有的人就
patent agent一直做下去了。只要不是太小的boutique，payment肯定会比在学校里做
薄厚高不少，working hour其实也不比做薄厚多多少 （我知道有的地方做薄厚晚上周
末都要泡实验室的），但是比做薄厚intense，压力大一些是肯定的。
还有你老婆其实在考patent bar之前就可以尝试network并且投投简历，有的地方招像
你老婆这样的人做technology／technical specialist，开始工作了之后再考都行。
不过确实像DANIELSD说的那样，bio／chem方面的职位要远少于EE。

patent is about disclosing the main mechanism of an invention. For software

As some one said, most software patents, which are jokes, don't have source
code disclosed. Yes, most of them are just ideas. And these ideas are not
