I was about to make the joke of how this awesome technology is an effect of socialism, but I see DrPawn beat me to it. But he wasn't joking. If it were up to him, NASA wouldn't even exist.

Here we have batteries rolling off printing presses.
Here we have OLED screens rolling off printing presses
Here we have solar panels rolling off printing presses.

Printing presses. Best invention ever.

toilet-paper that wipes your ass automatically. Once AI evolves it will wipe your ass whether you want to or not.

Yes. No word on whether you'll survive.

"Technical Data Sheet? We presently share product data sheets only under Non-Disclosure Agreement with qualified volume customers. This is so we can extend the period of protection for certain proprietary features we have developed." - nanosolar.com

Am I correct in interpreting this to mean that they are keeping it a trade secret so that they can delay patent filing, and thus delay patent expiry? If so, it is unfortunate that the law is promoting such negative behavior. I would suggest counting the patent term from the date of invention instead, but that date is too difficult to verify. Rather the threat of being scooped on the patent filing should prevent such behavior.

As an aside, all NDAs should be legally limited to the same or shorter term than a patent.
