"How do you get a patent ..."
The only way I can make sense of these ridiculous patents is if the patent examiners are under pressure to grant patents as part of their yearly performance metrics.
- rayiner 14y agoPatent examiners actually take pride in their high rejection ratio.
- antidoh 14y agoAnd yet the environment in which they work encourages more granted patents, as the new patent examination facilities being promoted by the administration imply (to me). Obama's/admin's stated reasons are to grant more patents faster.
- chris_wot 14y agoTheir rejection rate by women? Seriously, we keep seeing these brain dead patents. If the patent examiner doesn't understand linked lists, they shouldn't be examining the patents!
